Around the Bay, beautiful beaches, lush jungles and sparkling waterfalls offer many opportunities for the adventurous, while five star resorts, world-class shopping and gourmet restaurants satisfy even the most sophisticated traveler. Stretching from the south end of Old Town to central downtown, a newly extended and refurbished boardwalk along the ocean, called the Malecon, passes by any number of shops, restaurants, and hotels, and often plays host to mimes, breakdancers, clowns and artists.
The residents of Puerto Vallarta are very friendly and generally willing to help with directions and other requests. Old
English is widely spoken, and as a tourist destination prices are higher than many other places in Mexico. Puerto Vallarta is very crowded at holiday times, if planning a visit to Mexico that coincides with a major holiday consider opting to visit [[Mexico City]] or [[Guadalajara]] instead. The cities empty out as Mexicans and tourists alike flood to the beaches.
==Get in==
Note that the arrival area is plagued by timeshare hucksters as you come out from customs. They will offer to arrange a cab for you and try to rope you into a timeshare sales presentation. After you clear customs, walk quickly through the next room - the one housing the hucksters - continue walking past the rope-line. Now look for the official taxi kiosk out in the main airport atrium. You purchase your taxi trip here. All other offers of cab rides you will receive between customs and the kiosk will be from timeshare hucksters. Ignore every one of them. The bad experience of those taken in can ruin one's first hours in PVR, and that would be a shame. Or hire private transportation.
If you've packed lightly you can take the city buses into town. Turn left as you come out of the building and go towards the main road. The bus stop is to your left, under the pedestrian overpass (1/4 block from the airport door), next to the airport terminal building. Wait for a bus (5 minutes or so) marked "Centro" or "Zona Romantica" (but NOT marked Pitillal or Bobadilla), wave it down, pay your M$
===By private transportation===
If you are visiting Puerto Vallarta, you should consider private pre-arranged transportation directly from your airport to your hotel. This transportation can be arranged by contacting a company by phone
===By car===
There are modern, well maintained toll roads all the way from the border, other local roads are not as well maintained especially in outlying, poorer neighborhoods where the roads are still dirt roads
'''Federal Hwy 200 (MX Hwy 200)''' begins in Tepic (168km north) and goes through Sayulita, Bucerias, Nuevo Vallarta and into '''Puerto Vallarta'''. The highway continues south through Barra de Navidad, Manzanillo, Acapulco, etc. The road passes through town as a local road (at slower speeds) between the airport and the hills south of Zona Romantica. In downtown (north of Rio Cuale) the highway goes through as Av Mexico & Morelos (southbound along the

Enters into town from the NE in the Ixtapa neighborhood as Carretera Las Palms & A Ixtapa. Or continue on Hwy 15 to "MX 68 Compostela Cuota/MX 68 Pto Vallarta Cuota" exit and go west along MX 68/200D to the Hwy 200 intersection just southwest of Compostela and go south on Hwy 200 to Pto Vallarta.
From '''Manzanillo''' simply go north on Hwy 200 for the next 284km . Winds into town on a curvy 2 lane road into Zona Romantica from the south.

To catch a local bus into town, exit the bus station and keep walking across the parking area. Then walk to your right toward the corner. The city buses will stop here. Any bus you pick up here will take you all the way down to the "Romantic Zone (Zona Romantica)", about a half an hour drive, for just Mx$
It is possible to walk between the airport and the bus station, however catching a city bus is a cheap and reliable option from the other side of the road from the airport terminal. Go across the pedestrian bridge and the stop is under the pedestrian bridge
In town there's an additional bus stop at the NE corner of Aguacate & Venustiano Carranza in Zona Romantica (Colonia Emiliano Zapata) for first & second class buses going south to El Tuito, Manzanillo and anywhere along the way. Tickets can bought from vendors in front of Abarrotes Don Chalio on 402 Venustiano Carranza; Farmacia Guadalajara on the SE corner of Insurgentes & Lazaro Cardenas; or Superior Tours on Ignacio L. Vallarta 228 (SW of Ignacio L Vallarta & Calle FCO Madero - Tel: 322-222-0024). Fares for second class buses can be paid to the driver at boarding. If coming into town from the south ask to get off in Zona Romantica (along Insurgent) if going to downtown or Zona Romantica, otherwise stay on the bus to the bus station (north) to continue north to Nuevo Vallarta, Bucerias, Sayulita, Tepic, or anywhere in the Riviera.
The following have their own terminals and/or stops elsewhere instead:
===By taxi===
Hotels may provide a price list for cabs (expect to pay about 50 pesos for short trips, and 200 for longer trips). Hotels will also offer (expensive) transport from airport to hotel
Tip: From the airport, there are two types of taxis available to get you to where you are going. The white federal taxis are available immediately upon exiting the airport but are more expensive. Cross the pedestrian bridge over the highway for the cheaper yellow taxis that are more common in other parts of the city.
===By bus===
*'''Local trips'''
Bus trips cost around $
The buses are very reliable quite handy to get to places like Pitillal (the rapidly growing suburb to the NE) and Ixtapa (including the nearby U of Guadalajara campus with its gallery and crocodile farm). They are also useful for
*'''Out of town trips'''
The easiest way to catch a bus to Bucerias, Punta Mita or points in between is to catch a city bus to Wal-Mart/Sams. Walk along the main road to the northernmost bus shelters in front of Wal-Mart. The buses to Bucerias leave from here.
If you want to catch a bus south to Barra de Navidad or any of the towns south to Costa
To the South, the hills cascade towards the sea creating a rich palette that mixes the vivid green foliage with the deep blues of the water. At their feet nestle secluded coves and small fishing villages, many of which are still accessible only by sea.
To the East, the jungle clad Sierra Madre Mountains, which quickly rise to over 8,000 feet, encircle and protect the town from the winds and regulate the semi-tropical and humid weather.
And, to the West, the Bay of Banderas is home to a wide variety of aquatic life. Humpback whales come here to mate every year from December to March, and sea turtles nest on the beaches from May to October. Schools of dolphins and giant manta rays also inhabit these waters. The Bay and the Marietas Islands offer an amazing kaleidoscope of tropical fish, attracting snorkelers, scuba divers and
Hacienda de Oro Visitor's Center with spectacular mountain views, is also where you will find '''Hacienda de Oro Restaurant''', with a courteous staff, delicious brick oven pizzas, salads and other Mexican specialties. Hacienda de Oro Restaurant was designed by Santa Rosa, CA native and world-renowned fine artist, Anthony Sbragia. Also, in this area are the famous "classy" restrooms. Located in the heart of an old growth native forest, with thousands of native and ornamental plants, a short ride from town - by car, bus, taxi.

* Puerto Vallarta's whale watching season runs from December to March of every year.

The main beach at Sayulita has consistent waves and the place is crowded during the winter months particularly. There are waves small enough for beginners and large enough for the locals and experts. Most of the adventure companies don't offer surfing lessons and you might need to find an independent instructor.
'''Snorkeling - Los Arcos'''

* Kitesurfing is becoming more and more popular in Banderas Bay. Especially in Bucerias, a fishing village north of Nuevo Vallarta, you can see up to 30 people kitesurfing on a Sunday when the wind is good. The calm waters of Banderas Bay, the extended shoreline and the fact that it´s not too crowded with kitesurfers (yet) make it an excellent place to take lessons, for example from Jamison Smith [http://www.jamisonsmith.com], an IKO Level 2 Senior Certified International Kiteboarding Instructor. The season is from February until May.

* You will be hard-pressed to find information about simple hiking excursions
So you must research this ahead of time if you wish to hike. However, one short and interesting hike may be accessed as follows. Take a water taxi to Yelapa. On the main beach in Yelapa, walk to the right and cross the creek. Hike upwards a few meters to the cobblestone trail. Turn right, and then follow the trail over a ridge and up the adjacent valley. After hiking about 1.5 km through a tropical deciduous forest, your persistence will be rewarded. The waterfall is about 10 m high, with a pool for bathers at the base. The falls are more impressive during the rainy season (northern summer).

Note that not very many places take credit cards. Some larger hotel complexes, high end restaurants and shops do, but most do not. It is very much a cash only economy with ATMs available in convenient locations and a bank downtown where in-person withdrawals can be made.
For the budget traveler - time your visit outside of peak holiday periods (eg Santa Semana/ Easter week). Accommodation prices during peak times can double or triple and the beaches become insanely crowded.

Planned Giving / Bequests
A Bequest or Planned Gift:
Perpetuates your annual giving after you have gone home;
Lets you designate how your gift is to be used (Supporting Augustinian Vocations, supporting the Retired and Infirm Augustinians, or supporting the Missions in Peru);
Allows you to give a much larger gift than what might be possible in life
May have estate, income, or other tax benefits depending on the gift and situation
What is the Benefit of a Bequest or Planned Gift?
When creating your final earthly plans, please remember the Augustinians. There are many ways to give after funds are needed. You may give through a bequest in a will through a fixed sum or percentage of your net estate or by naming the Augustinians as a beneficiary of your IRA, retirement plan, or life insurance policy.
For more information, please email Province Chief Advancement Officer, Michael Gerrity, or call 773-595-4035. All inquiries are strictly confidential.
The Power of Perpetual Giving
|Annual Perpetual Gift*
*Estimates 5% annual payout .
Bequests may be made to: Province of Our Mother of Good Counsel of the Augustinian Order
Restless Hearts Society
Why "Restless Hearts"?
St. Augustine, a Doctor and most revered and most quoted Saint of the Church, was well known for many and insightful thoughts and memorable quotes. "You have made us for Yourself, O Lord, and our hearts are restless until they rest in You," is considered by many to be one of his most profound thoughts. This one sentence speaks eloquently to restlessness, challenges and sufferings that accompany so many to recognize and remember those who have included the Augustinians in their wills and estate plans. These good people, like you, while journeying through this life grappling with their own restlessness have taken the time to make a significant generous gift to help the Augustinians.
Previously, donors making bequests or other such planned gifts were honored in the Good Counsel Legacy organization. The "Restless Hearts" Society will honor any past planned giving donors meeting the Society's criteria for membership.

text: If you didn't know this Chardonnay was grown in California, you might very well guess you were sipping young Chablis. All the characteristics are there - it's lean, bright and aromatic, driven by minerality and acidity that refresh and exhilarate. Lancel Creek is a chilly, remote vineyard hidden in a dense redwood forest on the Sonoma Coast, and it is as pristine as the wine it produces. The secret to its stride is the masterful blend of Old Wente and Montrachet clones that are farmed on this foggy outpost. Old Wente offers a delicious array of flavors and textures, while Montrachet's crisp backbone keeps the wine focused and precise.

How many Goldfish
3 Goldfish
Your 'before & After' Pics
Miss Manda replied to awrieger's topic in Goldfish Photos / VideosWow there alot of changes... great topic. Here are my trio of goldfish... Gonzo(f), Madman(m) and Ghibli(m) when I first got them roughly aged 4mths November 2007.Sorry about the blurry photo it was taken on a mobile phone. And this is them very recently about a month ago... Gonzo(f) Madman(m) Ghibli(m)
Hi shellbell4ever:) Thanks for the welcome!! Jeana727 - These are the parents This is Gonzo the mother... I named her before I found out her sex. And these are the fathers... This one is Ghibli And this is Madman Pontosfan - Thanks I am quite happy spends a couple of minutes each day watching them swim around and eat way too cute!! Celina - Thanks for the tip I will leave koko a comment and see if i can get into contact with her!!
From the little bit I have read on Goldfish genetics... It is way to hard to work out what they will look like, but the thing that is most likely is the body shape of your goldfish. Because the shubunkins body shape is a stronger genetic trait.(Due to the body shape still being the same as the original goldfish) So most will not be fancy (shaped)But some may still be fancy!! Here is a link of what I have been reading about goldfish gentics(if your interested) - http://www.docstoc.com/docs/10876647/Goldfish-Varieties-and-Genetics (You can download it or read online) Good luck with your little babies!!! Cant wait to see pics, to see what they look like!!
Eggs Round 2!
Miss Manda replied to Badfish's topic in Goldfish BreedingCongrats on your little goldfish!!! It's so amasing watching them change and develop. Just wondering how they will turn out.
Anyone know Koko's email address... tried from her profile but Im not allowed. Also I am still a very new member and haven't yet made 200 posts, to be able to PM.

Not Sure What Breed My 3 Goldfish Are...
Miss Manda replied to Miss Manda's topic in Types of GoldfishThanks for fixing the picture Hidr- this is my second post.(Guess I will have to look up the 'posting pic's' area of the forum). I was hoping ghibli might be considered a oranda!! Thanks J-pond!! Yeah they were tiny compared to the No fishing sign, devilduck - super cute. I should have written it a bit more clearer the last picture was taken when I first got them, when they were a couple of months old. The first three picture's is of them now at three years old!!
Hi (^,..,^)
Miss Manda replied to Miss Manda's topic in Welcome New MembersHi everyone!!! Thanks so much for all the welcomes!!!
Not Sure What Breed My 3 Goldfish Are...
Miss Manda posted a topic in Types of GoldfishI have 3 goldfish that are 3 years old. I am really curious as to what breed they would be classified as... Any replies are greatly appreciated!!! First up is Madman(M)His developing black spots. But has been white with orange on his head. Next is Ghibli(M)His always been metallic orange, his the boss of the group. Lastly is Gonzo(F)I can tell she is calico, but not sure about her shape etc.. Love calico's their patterns are so random. Here is a pic of when I first got them from the LFS... Thanks again in advance to any replies!!
Hi (^,..,^)
Miss Manda posted a topic in Welcome New MembersHi Everyone, Im from Australia and I have three goldfish at the moment... Ghibli(M)He looks most like a oranda with very small head growth, orange metallic and very long, flowing finage. He the boss of the tank. Madman(M)He is a little bit smaller than Ghibli, his white with very bright orange on the top of his head(Some patched of black developing. Gonzo(F)She is calico, with much much shorter finage than the males. She has one golden eye and one silver. I have had these goldfish for almost 3 years. Very recently they have spawned. Although I had decided just a couple of months ago (When they started trying to mate) if they did I would leave the eggs to be eaten. Once I saw the eggs I changed my mind. Now I have 35 fry that I wasn't expecting. And I am loving every minute of it!!Watching and waiting to see what they will look like... Looking forward to meeting other goldfish owners and gaining valuable knowledge on keeping my favourite pets!!

Heavy Metal subculture
1. Heavy Metal subculture
2. TerminologyHeavy metal fans go by a number of different names,
including metalhead, headbanger, hesher, mosher and
heavy, with the term thrasher being used only for fans
of trash metal music, which began to differentiate itself
from other varieties of metal in the late 80's.
3.The long hair, leather jackets, and band patches of heavy metal
fashion help to encourage a sense of identification within the
subculture. However, not all metal fans are "visible members" of the
heavy metal subculture. Some metal fans may have short hair and
dress in regular clothes.
4.Fans from the heavy metal culture often make the corna hand
gesture formed by a fist with the index and little fingers extended,
known as the "devil's horns", the "metal fist" and other similar
descriptors. This gesture was popularised by Black
Sabbath and Dio's vocalist Ronnie James Dio, who died in 2010.
5.Some critics and musicians have suggested that the subculture is
largely intolerant to other musical genres. The metal scene, like the
rock scene in general, is associated with alcohol, tobacco and
drugs. While there are songs that celebrate drinking,
smoking/dipping, drug use, gambling, having tattoos and partying,
there are also many songs that warn about the dangers of alcohol,
tobacco, gambling, tattoo and drug addictions. The metal fanbase
was traditionally white and male in the 1970s, but since the 1980s,
more female fans have developed an interest in the style, while
popularity and interest continue to grow among African
Americans and other groups.
6.In the musical subcultures of heavy metal and punk, authenticity is a
core value. The term poseur (or poser) is used to describe "a person
who habitually pretends to be something he/she is not," as in,
adopting the appearance and clothing style of the metal scene
without truly understanding the culture and its music.
Jeffrey Arnett's 1996 book Metalheads: Heavy Metal Music and
Adolescent Alienation argues that the heavy metal subculture
classifies members into two categories by giving "...acceptance as
an authentic metalhead or rejection as a fake, a poseur."

Blackjack Ace Tracking: Play 21 like a pro without counting cards.
There are many misconceptions in the gambling world surrounding the game of blackjack. Some believe that without card counting, blackjack isn't worth playing. Some say that counting cards will give you an edge over the house, guaranteeing a long-term winning streak. These are both myths, of course.
Not only is card counting relatively easy, it may not be all it's cracked up to be. Yes, it can sheer a few fractional scraps off the house edge. But most game rules counter its effects enough to keep the favor with the house. And volatility will always play a strong enough roll that anyone, with or without counting cards, can have a good or bad day.
So why waste your time doing it? The truth is, there's a much easier way to increase your ROI. Instead of keeping your focus on every single card that turns face up, just keep track of the Aces. After all, they are every blackjack player's best friend!
The Value of Blackjack Ace Tracking
The concept here is to know how many Aces are left in the shoe, and approximately what percentage of the shoe is still in play. It's not difficult at all, requiring only the simplest math skills – the stuff you learned in grade school.
Let's say there are 8 decks in the shoe. That means there are 32 Aces in a full shoe of 416 cards, representing 1/14th of all the cards. That means that, from the start, you have a 1 in 14 chance of being dealt an Ace. Still with me? Okay, good.
Now, let's assume you've been playing for a short while now. The shoe appears to be about 25% spent. Without counting, we know that leaves about 300 cards remaining. You've only seen 3 Aces in that period of time – far less than the 25% of all Aces in the deck (32/4 = 8). So we know that Aces are going to be more prevalent right now.
If you are good with mental math, you can work that out to about a 1 in 10 chance of being dealt an Ace now (300 cards / 29 Aces = 10.34). Even without quick calculations, you can figure whether the odds are higher or lower.
If you have seen more than 25% (8) of the Aces in the deck – perhaps 10 of them came across the felt in that time – you'll know the odds of being dealt an Ace are lower. This obviously doesn't fare as well for your game, probability-wise.
Why Aces are So Important
The Ace is by far the blackjack player's best friend; their 'ace in the hole', if you don't mind the obnoxious pun. Without them, you cannot be dealt a natural blackjack. It is these natural blackjacks that give players the biggest advantage, paying out at a rate of 3:2. Knowing that aces are heavy in the shoe gives you a heads up to increase your bet size, since the odds of being dealt a blackjack are higher, the same as a shoe low in Aces should induce smaller bets.
Remember, there is only 1 Ace for every 14 cards, but there are 4 cards per 14 that can pair with the Ace to make a blackjack. Thus the Ace is the most vital. When dealt an Ace, there is (at full shoe size) a 4 in 13 chance remaining that a blackjack will be dealt. That's nearly a 1 in 3 chance.
Of course, you won't know if you're going to be dealt that Ace before you place a bet. Hence, the strategy of tracking Aces empowers players with the ability to better predict when an Ace will or won't come.
It's actually incredibly similar to the process, accuracy and edge-reduction of counting cards, but much easier to pull off, requiring less mental fortitude and attention. That means you're less likely to be called out for doing it at a land-based casino, which as many of you know can either get you kicked out, or cause the dealer to start shuffling the shoe long before reaching a depth of 50%, when tracking aces becomes the most advantageous for players.

Dirty Gentlemen presents: The WORK IS HOW series
Directed and edited by Andy Old
Music by Andy Old
Additional piano: Phil Lam
Special thanks: Leslie Ho (Sony Music Hong Kong) (Rest In Peace)
To boil Dirty Gentlemen down to its essence, it comes down to the three words; "Work is How". At Dirty Gentlemen we believe the process is more important than the product. We believe respect is acquired by proving one's perseverance and willingness in all forms of work and work environments. No one is born a gentleman. You need to get your hands dirty before you learn how to present yourself in a respectful manner.
For singer/song-writer Phil Lam, nothing weighs heavier than the importance of following his music passion. It was a few years ago the Vancouver Island native decided to pursue his music career in Hong Kong after garnering the attention of a handful of record labels from winning an international Asian singing competition. Now he is very active in the local Hong Kong music scene and has secured his spot in the Sony Music Hong Kong roster. In this interview, we touch on his on-going pursuit of balance between life and music, his values that fuel him as an artist, and how his passion elevated him above the lowest moments of his music career.

New Year Resolutions and Unfinished List #43
Happy New Year!I typically don't do New Year resolutions. They just seem like the same ol' list of things we all know we should be doing and somehow don't. Eat better, exercise more, try to cut out Diet Pepsi...One year, at a church women's gathering, we did 'Good Riddance' instead. We all wrote down what we wanted to get rid of on a slip of paper and put it in a shoebox. Someone read them aloud, but no names were identified. (One woman wanted to get rid of her husband!) We then tossed the box in the garbage can and said, "Good Riddance!" I wrote down that I was going to get rid of the need to do everything myself. It was a big problem for me back then. My husband would probably say there are still times I need to work on that, but for that one year, I really got rid of it. Yes, I know it's basically the same thing as a New Year's resolution, but for some reason, it worked for me. At least for that one year.This year, however, I've actually made some goals:
- Give more details on posts. A friend said I don't write enough in my posts. I know what I'm looking for when I visit a blog, so I'm going to give more information regarding projects.
- Submit an original quilt project to Moda Bakeshop. If you follow Moda's blog, you know what I'm talking about. My understanding is that you can submit ideas to them and if they like it, you basically get to write a post as a guest. My husband asked, "What do you get if they accept it?" I told him, "A button on your blog that says 'I was featured on Moda Bakeshop'! That's reward enough.
- Be more creative and worry less about being perfect. Worrying about a project turning out right the first time keeps me from starting the project. Additionally, it also hinders creativity. So, less thinking more doing.

On a cool morning in September, a shuttle bus full of first year pediatric medical residents pulls up alongside a curb in Dorchester, one of the poorest areas of Boston. The doctors disembark and disperse in groups of twos and threes. They're not making house calls or working in an area clinic. They have an appointment with housing court.
The residents are starting their "Keystone Quarter," an innovative twelve week program launched by the Boston Combined Residency Program (BCRP) in July 2013. Keystone combines three previously distinct rotations—adolescent medicine, developmental/behavioral pediatrics and advocacy—into a single three-month block. Content from each discipline is broken up and spread out longitudinally; instead of spending four weeks each on advocacy, behavioral health and adolescent medicine, residents experience segments of all three curricula every week for twelve weeks. …Read More

For a while there in the mid-1980s, there was not a bigger multi-media property in the world than He-Man and the Masters of the Universe. When Cannon Films wanted to show that it was ready to be a major player on the blockbuster movie scene, producers went out to go buy the most sought-after licenses in the world. One of those licenses was Spider-Man from Marvel Comics. This will give you the proper context, then, to note that despite getting Spider-Man's license, they paid much more money and fought off more studios to acquire the rights to He-Man. That's how big He-Man was in the 1980s. Of course, as these things usually do, what goes up eventually goes down and by the end of the 1980s, He-Man's fortunes had fallen. His hit Filmation show was finished and Mattel tried one last shot to do a New Adventures of He-Man in 1990, but it did not go over. It would be over a decade before the toy line tried again.
Since the relaunch failed soon after it started, a number of toys were never produced. Longtime He-Man concept artist, Errol McCarthy, put together designs for a number of great toys that were never made. He-Man.org has a collection of McCarthy's designs for both the He-Man figures that did get made for the classic line as well as some failed concept drawings. We will combine this with some other un-produced toys to show you 15 He-Man toys that we wished were made (and one we're glade never got produced).
The revamped Masters of the Universe toy line coincided with a new animated series called The New Adventures of He-Man, where He-Man was taken away from Eternia and placed within more of a science fiction-like setting. As a result, a number of the new characters for the revamped toy line also received designs that would follow in that vein. The Masters of Universe toy line had already gotten a bit into more robotic designs with their last few figures, like Rio-Blast and the lasers that would pop out of his body.
Battle Beard appears to be following in the vein of some of those other late stage characters, with a robotic appendage built around his beard. What is particularly strange about the character is that there are certainly other sorts of things that you could have protrude from someone's face than a beard, so it is surprising that is the direction they took the character. Most likely, he was then revamped into the released figure, Tuskadon, who had a similar design, only with protruding robotic tusks rather than a robotic beard. That is probably a better idea than the beard in the first place, while, of course, being strange in its own right ("Tuskadon"? Seriously?).
A general rule of thumb for the Masters of the Universe toy line is that it is always easiest to introduce two versions of the same basic character, a good guy and a bad guy. In fact, that was literally the way that the toy line proceeded with characters, which led to confusion with the original concept of the two-headed character, Two-Bad. He was originally going to have one head that was good and another that was evil, but since that did not fit into Mattel's clear-cut "good or bad" categories, he was altered so that both heads were evil.
The theory was likely that they assumed people would make it a point to buy the opposite version of whichever figure they enjoyed. If you like Fisto, for instance, you would probably want his evil counterpart, Jitsu. So that was the case here with the heroic Sluggor and his evil opposite, Kickor. Another go-to with He-Man characters is for you to just change words ending in "er" to "or." It's not Webster, it's Webstor! It's not Stinker, it's Stinkor! In fact, those naming practices are likely what led to Sluggor and Kickor being revamped into the released figures, Kayo and Hoove. Producers probably wanted to get away from the naming conventions of the previous series.
Towards the end of the original Masters of the Universe toy line in 1987, Mattel planned a new line of figures that would be set in the distant past of Eternia. The line would be called " The Powers of Grayskull," with the Eternia of the toyline called "Preternia" to make it clear that it was a different deal than the modern day line of He-Man toys. It is unknown whether they planned on doing a cartoon series to tie in with this new toy line. In any event, the toy line was canceled before it was released.
The lead character in the proposed line was He-Ro, who was He-Man's ancestor. Mattel's licensing guide for the character, back when they thought that the line was going to come out, described him as follows, "by placing one hand over his heart & flexing the other into a muscle & saying, 'Magic & strength tempered by heart... I stand for peace!,' he would become He-Ro of Grayskull, the Most Powerful Wizard in the Universe!" In his secret identity, his name was to be Gray. Eventually, in the 2009 Masters of the Universe Classics toy line, He-Ro was finally made into a figure.
A major problem with the original Masters of the Universe toy line is the fact that Teela and the Sorceress were literally the only two female heroes in the entire line, and Evil-Lyn was the only female villain. It is clear that Mattel was going with the then-standard (and outdated) "Only boys buy action figures" way of thinking. The Sorceress did not even show up until the final legs of the toy line, so for years it was just Teela an Evil-Lyn. So it is especially disappointing what happened with the New Adventures of He-Man line.
You see, initially they appeared to be adding a Battle Woman to the line, who had a strange metal headdress that she used to smash her opponents. It is a bit of an odd concept, but it was still cool to see them go with a female character that was designed for fighting. However, they then decided to not release any female characters at all in the initial release of the New Adventures of He-Man line and the character Battle Woman evolved into, Mara, only made it to prototype stages before the line was canceled completely. At least Mara, who was mostly a passive character throughout most of the series, was going to come with a mace in the prototype!
In the transition to the new toy line and TV series, He-Man got a revamped look that was a bit of a simplified design from his classic one. He was also a thinner figure, as they were going away from the overly muscular molds that they used for most of the original series for He-Man and his friends. While most of the cast members from the original He-Man series were dropped for this new line, the one other major carryover was He-Man's nemesis, Skeletor.
These designed by Errol McCarthy suggest a horrific vision of Skeletor with a wild flock of red hair to go with his disgusting facial features. Also, is he carrying a pair of skulls as weapons in this drawing? What is going on here? Whatever it is, it is terrifying but in a totally awesome way. We would love to have seen this version of Skeletor make its way to the toy shelves, but instead, they settled on a sort of cyber-punk update of Skeletor's classic look. It perhaps made more sense for the overall design of the new toy line, which tried to lean heavily into robotic elements of the character designs, but it is not nearly as frightening as this early McCarthy look.
As mentioned before, in 1987, Mattel was set to release "The Powers of Grayskull" toy line, which would be set in the past of Eternia ("Preternia"). One of the figures in the line was going to be Eldor, who would have been He-Ro's mentor and adviser. It is likely that he would serve in much of the same capacity that Man-At-Arms served for He-Man.
Eldor would have been the guardian of the Book of Living Spells, which is quite likely connected to the Book of Spells that played a role on the She-Ra: Princess of Power animated series. The Book of Spells was guarded on the magical realm of Mystacor, which appeared in a number of episodes of She-Ra. In the middle of Mystacor was a floating castle where the book was kept. It is interesting to wonder how it would have made its way to Mystacor from where Elder had it in Preternia. In the 2002-03 MVCreations Masters of the Universe comic book series, Eldor made a cameo as part of The Council of the Wise in a scene set in the past, along with He-Ro and a few other familiar faces from the He-Man cartoon series, like that generation's Starchild.
A confusing part of these Errol McCarthy concept designs is that it unclear at exactly what point the franchise decided to spin some of these characters off into the Powers of Grayskull spinoff line and the New Adventures of He-Man revamp. For instance, take these two designs for a pair of giants. Naturally, there is a good giant and an evil giant, as that is how the Masters of the Universe rolled. However, notice the figure in the background of the evil giant (the one on the left). It sure appears like there is a member of the Snake-Men in the drawing.
That would make this design for the tail end of the original Masters of the Universe toy line, not the New Adventures of He-Man. However, in the Powers of Gray Skull line, there actually were a pair of giants in that series. There was the evil Megator and the heroic Tytus and these giant drawings sure look a lot like those characters. So it might be that they were originally intended for the main line and then spun off into the proposed side franchise. The Megator and Tytus figures were ultimately released in Europe as part of the main series of toys.
Quite often, Mattel would try to make it easier for the toy designers by releasing figures and toys along a particular theme within a larger line of figures. For instance, let's say that you were going to introduce a hero who shoots sludge. Then you would probably then introduce a villain who shoots sludge, as well. Then you would introduce a vehicle for the characters to drive that also shoots sludge. That is likely the thinking that went into this Spin Master Plane from the New Adventures of He-Man line.
The series had a character named Spinwit (Tornado in Europe) who had the ability to spin like a tornado. So it is likely that this vehicle had some sort of spinning capability that would pair it well with Spinwit. It is unclear from the design, though, as it seems to be a sort of generic-looking giant robotic bird plane. There does not seem to be any spot where you would think that it would spin. It is also interesting to note that Spinwit is not the other hero figure shown with He-Man in the drawing. It is unclear exactly who the other hero is, as he does not look like any of the released figures from the line.
Can you even imagine that we do not live in a world where kids got to have a giant sort of robo-dinosaur that He-Man could ride in? Another amusing thing about Mattel and their toy line is that they produced so many other toys that it sure seemed that some of the toys for the Masters of the Universe line were re-purposed for other Mattel franchises. For instance, it would not be surprising if Gigantisaur was originally a dinosaur for some sort of generic dinosaur series of toys that was then retrofitted to work as a He-Man toy.
This likely was going to be part of the Powers of Grayskull line that never came about. See Mattel's description of the canceled line, "Travel back in time through a secret time portal--and discover the ORIGIN of THE POWERS OF GRAYSKULL! Learn how He-Man became so strong! And explore the magical world of Preternia--home of HE-RO, the Most Powerful Wizard in the Universe! Monstrous dinosaurs and fierce giants--both good and evil--struggle for control of this strange & hostile land! The dinosaurs in the time of Grayskull--Tyrantisaurus Rex, Bionatops and Turbodactyl--each possess a fantastic mechanical power! Can HE-RO master all the good magic of the Ancient Wizards, and protect future Eternia from forever falling in the claws of evil? Look For HE-RO and The Powers of Grayskull coming your way in 1987!"
A drawback when it comes to designing vehicles for toy lines is that while Mattel would often re-use as many molds and designs from its other toy lines as it could for the Masters of the Universe toys over the years, it was hampered a bit by the size of the action figures. They were bigger than most of Mattel's other action figures, so there were not very many planes or cars that could be re-purposed into Masters of the Universe vehicles.
The size issue also seems to play into the design of a vehicle like the Chaos Ram. There is only room for two figures in the actual main part of the plane, which, like the Spin Master plane, looks basically just like a giant robot bird. Therefore, to fit more figures into the toy, two sort of cup holders were added on the wings. Isn't that an amazingly absurd way of traveling? Just sort of dangling from a ring on the wing of the plane? When you have larger figures, though, you can't fit too many of them in the main part of the vehicle, so you have to come up with creative design elements, like cup holders on the wings.
Most of the time, you can pretty easily discern which one of a given Masters of the Universe pairing is the hero and which one is the villain. However, in the case of Rocket Lets vs. Sledor, it is a bit confusing. Neither of the figures looks particularly heroic. We are going to go out on a limb and say that Rocket Legs looks slightly less ominous, so we are going to assume that he is he hero. What's also confusing about Rocket Legs is that he appears to have rockets on his shoulders, as well, so why is he called Rocket Legs?
Sledor, meanwhile, is a really striking design. While it is almost certainly a coincidence, he seems to have a lot in common with the design for the Green Goblin the original Sam Raimi Spider-Man film. The helmet and the way that he seems to be riding around on his sled legs in sort of the same fashion that the Green Goblin rides on his glider. One last bit that confused about Rocket Legs - so, he's flying in the drawing, right? Is he flying due to the rockets, though, or are they just for him to shoot at people? You are an enigma, Rocket Legs!
One of the intriguing aspects of the Masters of the Universe toy line, and honestly, one of the strangest aspects of it, is how little regard producers cared for any sort of consistency between the figures. There was no underlying drive in the design of a typical figure. So long as Mattel did not need to create that many new molds, there was a free hand and then the writers of the Filmation TV series had to come up with ways to work these bizarre new characters into the story. "Oh, it's He-Man's body, but he has a giant robot elephant head? Uh... let's say he's Eternia's fire fighter!"
A couple of toys that fit that bill were Rotar and Twistoid, two figures who were the opposites of each other (Rotar was the good guy, Twistoid the bad). They were both designed so that the bottom of their figures were, in effect, a top. So that kids could spin them and they would roll around on the ground like a top. They came out just when the original toy line was falling apart. Thus, the vehicle that was meant to be released with them, the Gyrattacker, was never released. It was designed to launch Rotar and Twistoid out from it so that they would hit the ground and start spinning.
The relationship between He-Man and Skeletor had always been an important part of the Masters of the Universe toy line and the accompanying animated series, but interestingly enough, the toy line had begun to pull away a bit from Skeletor after a few years, with Hordak and his Evil Horde being introduced as a sort of wild card third party that could be used to fight against either He-Man and the heroes or Skeletor and the villains. Hordak then became the main villain of the She-Ra: Princess of Power TV series.
However, when the New Adventures of He-Man came about, Skeletor was the main villain again, as he was front and center in the new cartoon more than he had ever been on the Filmation series. A lot of this has to do with the fact that He-Man and Skeletor were both separated from their respective groups on Eternia, so they were the only two established characters on the new TV series, and as a result, they were the centerpiece of the conflicts on the new series. The new line also introduced tiny creatures (both good and bad) into the line. Perhaps they were influenced by the popularity of the Ewoks from Star Wars?
As noted earlier, in the world of the Masters of the Universe, there really was no such thing as being "off brand," because there was no coherent brand to begin with, just a sort of barbarian guy named He-Man. It makes you appreciate the work that the Filmation writers had to do to make the whole thing seem like a coherent narrative. There's no wonder that so many writers from the series went on to become acclaimed universe builders, like Paul Dini and J. Michael Straczynski, because they had to come up with a universe from scratch with a number of discordant elements thrown into the mix.
It is that sort of "whatever you want to try, we'll give it a shot" attitude from Mattel that likely led to this apparently unproduced... evil bugle? Designed by Dave McElroy, this almost certainly has to be an example of Mattel taking a product from one of its other toy lines and then adapting it to make it work in the Masters of the Universe line. The connection, though, is hilariously tenuous. After all, when you think about Skeletor, you certainly don't think about an electronic bugle, not even one with a creepy, moving tongue!
A recurring theme in a lot of these Errol McCarthy designs for The New Adventures of He-Man figures is the idea of battle. Not just a general battle between good and evil that has always been a key part of the Masters of the Universe toy lines, but a more specific hand-to-hand combat, sort of like a riff on Thunderdome. Note how many of the characters seem to be literally bonded at either their wrists or the ankles, like some sort of ritualistic competition. The only ones who weren't directly connected to each other were Rocket Legs and Sledor and Battle Woman and her opponent.
That is likely the driving force behind the design for the Monster Mouth Arena, which seems like it is built around the idea of heroes and villains competing in the arena in combat with each other. It is a shame that the New Adventures of He-Man toy line only had two play sets before it was canceled, because it had a history of strong play sets and this one looks like it would have fit in perfectly. It is curious, though, as to whether the creature in the bottom of the arena would have made it into the final version of the play set.
In 1986, Mattel had a "Create-a-Character" contest where kids could design a figure that could possibly become part of the Masters of the Universe toy line. However, since this was towards the end of the original toy line's existence, the winning action figure never actually got produced. The finalists in the contest were voted on by over 150,000 respondents.
Some of the figures were Netta, a hero made out of nets, Compactor, a guy who could smash things with his torso, Eye Beam, a giant walking eye, Brainwave, a guy with a giant brian and the winner, Fearless Photog, a sort of anthropomorphic camera. Eleven-year-old Nathan Bitner entered the contest despite not actually owning any Masters of the Universe action figures! He won the $100,000 college scholarship grand prize. Bitner was almost eliminated from the competition when he gave an interview intimating that his father had done a lot of the drawing. His father explained otherwise and Mattel let him remain in the contest. An anthropomorphic camera who drains evil from bad guys via his lens isn't the worst idea for a He-Man figure, but it's up there! Bitner was a camera buff, which informed his design. The figure, though, ended up never actually being released.

While not elated with the 28-14 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Friday, Falcons team co-builders, coach Dan Quinn and general manager Thomas Dimitroff, celebrated wide receiver Calvin Ridley's NFL breakthrough.
"Having that speed and his ability to make plays down the field was a big factor in why Thomas and I felt so highly about him," Quinn said. "His role on this team is using his speed in that way."
Ridley, the team's 2018 first-round draft pick, played 19 plays on offense and two on special teams against the Chiefs.
Ridley, who starred at Alabama, flashed the playmaking ability that the Falcons hoped he could bring to the team when he was selected with the 26th overall pick.
After the exhibition opener, Ridley wasn't happy with his performance. He made caught one pass for minus-2 yards.
"We were bummed that we didn't get a chance to (hit a big play) last week," Quinn said. "You guys have seen that some at practice and at camp."
Julio Jones had to advise Ridley to stay focused and not worry about what the other rookies were doing around the league.
"I felt much better," Ridley said. "Every time that I go out there, I want to put on my best, but you can't control some things. It felt pretty good to be able to make some plays."
So, for Ridley to get loose against NFL defenders was comforting to the team.
"As a competitor he was disappointed in last week's game," Quinn said. "Which, at the time, Thomas and I were smiling about because he wanted to do more and can do more. It was good to see his talent come out some."
Against the Chiefs, Ridley was targeted six times. He made three catches for 49 yards and caught a 7-yard touchdown.
The Falcons had a drastic drop in explosive plays last season in the pass game and were hoping that Ridley could provide some. In the first quarter, he got open deep for a 36-yard gain.
"They motioned me down, and I had a post," Ridley said. "I saw that he had outside leverage, so I just hit with a stick (move) and stuck him real good. I looked over, and I saw that the safety on the other side was pretty high. Matt (Ryan) put a good ball on me."
In the second quarter, veteran quarterback Matt Schaub drove the Falcons down the field and on the 15th play of the drive found Ridley in the end zone for a touchdown.
Ridley showed his craftiness on the touchdown grab.
"Knowing where the leverage is around (him) and how to move into space," Quinn said. "He's got from his background and the coaching that he had in college, he comes into our team pretty equipped from a learning standpoint, from the football side of things where he was playing in an offense that was as close to a pro-style offense as other guys coming in from a different set of circumstances.
"We've been encouraged for him. He's somebody that you don't generally correct a whole lot of times. If there's a mistake to be made he's ready to fix it right away."
With the new kickoff rules, the Falcons believe that there will be some big-play opportunities. Ridley, who didn't return kicks at Alabama, took his first NFL kickoff return for 34 yards.
"It's not something that he has lots of experience at," Quinn said. "It's something that we are all learning to a certain degree."
Normally, a first-round pick would never be used on kickoff returns.
"There are way more single blocks than there used to be," Quinn said. "You probably saw some today, where a guy missed a block and all of sudden there is a player right near the returner. Those are things this year that if people win on their single blocks there are going to be some big returns in the NFL."
Ridley looked comfortable back deep on the kickoff returns. Quinn gave credit to coaching intern Leon Washington, who is tied with Josh Cribbs for the NFL record for most kickoff returns for a touchdown, with eight.
Washington, a former Florida State running back, played in the NFL from 2006-14 with the Jets, Seahawks, Patriots and Titans.
"He's done an excellent job with us as well," Quinn said. "He was a fantastic return man. ... To have another guy's guidance in that spot is good."
Special-teams coordinator Keith Armstrong is keeping things simple in the exhibition season, but will opening his razzle-dazzle book for returns once the season starts.
"I think the kickoff return and kickoff is a good topic and one that we are going to continue to keep watching," Quinn said. "Last week was like the first examples of the first kickoff returns under the new guidelines. Now, we have another week. I'm anxious to see around the league what changes are taking place."
Ridley could be a major weapon on special teams, too.
"I'm still learning," Ridley said. "I still have to get better, but I felt pretty good."
Ridley was pleased with his home debut.
"I felt pretty good to get some catches and run with them a little, and it felt good to get that first touchdown out the way," Ridley said.

The Salutation Inn
UK England South West England Devon Exeter
Inn, restaurant with rooms? The Salutation is both those things really, a classy revamp of a seventeenth-century pub built around an excellent fine-dining restaurant and relaxed GlassHouse cafe. The food is great – the reason many visit – but they're also right on the money with the whole shelter-for-the-night bit, with four bright, spacious rooms and two suites, all turned out in crisp tones, featuring very comfortable beds (handmade locally) and en-suite bathrooms with upscale toiletries. There's no pub bar any more, but we like the first-floor 'Galley', where guests can grab a tea, coffee or a snack at any time of day or night, and along with the excellent service, it's the kind of touch that makes it no surprise that the Salutation won Food & Travel Magazine's Best UK B&B award in 2016. Topsham itself is a lovely place to stay, an old heritage port and ship-building town, handy both for Exeter and the coast at Exmouth, while the GlassHouse cafe in the historic inn courtyard makes a cheery port of call any time from breakfast through to afternoon tea.
Four double bedrooms and two suites.
Double rooms from £135 a night B&B, suites from £195 a night B&B. Midweek DB&B deals from £195 a night.

You may not know this about me but I often think how much I might enjoy being a celebrity…it is true. So yesterday when I got back from parent teacher conferences with the kids, little did I know that my debut was about to happen.
The local FOX 7 van drove up and the reporter asked he they could get some footage of the kids playing outside (because it had just rained a little) I said alright, next thing I know I am strapping on a microphone and answering questions about the drought and the new watering restrictions. And that is it people later that evening the Barlow's (minus James) made our reality t.v. debut. All because my wild and scraggly kids were outside at the time the news people were driving by.
So watch and have a laugh at my impromptu shot at taking on the local news channel.

LT. Shriver made the 63 med trip with us but I can`t remember when he left the boat.
I think you've got it. It was Lt. Shriver. He was the one who gualified me on the way back from the med. I knew the otther name wasn't quite right but couldn't remember the right one. He was a nice guy.
Yup, I believe it was Shriver. I told you I had old timers disease, or is it C.R.S.
