text: JUBA, 6 May 2012 Governor Al-Shambali had set 5th May as the deadline saying their presence in the area threatens the security and environment of his state. The decision to extend South Sudanese stay in Kosti was reached in a meeting of Sudan's Minister for Social Affairs Amira Fadil and the governor Al-Sambali. The International Organization for Migration (IOM) and UN Humanitarian Affairs representatives in Khartoum had in the wake of the seven days given to the big number of over 12,000 South Sudanese called on the government in Khartoum to review the decision by the governor. While announcing the extension, governor Al-Sambali said the International Organization for Migration (IOM) and the UN humanitarian organisations will be allowed to transport the refugees by road to Renk in Upper Nile state of the Republic of South Sudan. Sudan that controls most of the barges in Khartoum blocked all barges used by IOM to transport the South Sudanese from Kosti to South Sudan accusing the South Sudan Army (SPLA) of using them for transporting troops and military equipment to its borders with Khartoum, a charge the SPLA has outrightly refuted. This decision comes at a time when there were ogoing humanitarian concerns in the South about the fate the big number of South Sudanese that would be affected by the order. Dr. Barnaba Marial Benjamin, the minister for Information and Broadcasting and the official spokesman of the government of the Republic of South Sudan told the press early in the week that the government was concerned about the unexpected humanitarian crisis as a result of the governor's decision. According to the minister, the refugees' movement had been restricted and those who would disobey the orders were threatened with arrests. Source: goss.org

Ovarian cysts are one of the most common reasons for a women to visit a gynecologist. Many are benign and self-limited. Others require more evaluation to rule out the possibility of a neoplasm. Neoplasm means new growth, which can be, and often is, benign. Malignant neoplasms of the ovary do occur however making the evaluation of ovarian cysts important in early detection of ovarian cancer.
I have created an Overview of Ovarian Cysts complete with images. There is also an external video that details ovarian cysts.
Please share any feedback.

Four sections, 1 a 2-men-on-one- woman, the other three 1-on-1. All ladies elderly and appealing.
The women are heavy. They seem inexperienced and, perhaps, embarrassed, which added to the appeal.
This is a typical Rodney double-up. You think you'll get twice as much, and you don't get much at all. If you like to look at hairy women, it's great. But there are only two blowjobs and one full sex episode.
I've rented 83 DVDs. This was my first five-star rating. Rodney, as others have noted, can be artsy and sometimes shows no sex or just oral sex. But this time you get full sex in all five segemnts, even anal in one. The girls have that regular look I find appealing. The plot lines can be surprisingly original, as when Rodney offers to suck smaller the breasts of a woman who wants a breast reduction, or when Rodney quickly seduced the lady who arrived with a petition to close down a neighborhood strip bar. The scene with the kneeling lady in the apartment, wearing nothing but a blindfold, was appealing.
This is, perhaps, a one-man operation. The man doesn't show his face, and the camera angles are limited. But the girls are very appealing.
You think you'll get twice as much, and you don't get much at all. Lots of girls, but not much action. Another of Rodney's strange arty films.
Only three girls. The disappointment is that girl #3, older and flabbier and, I think, sexier, didn't remove her bra.
Only three secenes, and three women (one a scene), which was disappointing BUT pretty good scenses. First an older woman, claiming to be 39, then a young, slim, enthusiastic and well-bushed one, then an Hispanic.
Instead of getting double, you get not much at all. The girls are hairy and appealing BUT there's not much sex. There's a little lesbian action between two of them, one uses a dildo and only one actually has sex with Rodney. Rodney sometimes gets arty. This is one of those times.
Attractive, enthusiastic, large, real-seeming women. All five sections were appealing.

Healthy Eating Resources
How to Make Rice Porridge
Posted By Dr. Ben KimI know that this post will get some members of the food police upset with me, but I've said it before and I'll say it again: in some cases, I firmly believe that cooked white rice can be a healthy food choice.
Roasted Cauliflower and Potato Soup - A Digestive Tonic
Posted By Dr. Ben KimMaking top notch soup doesn't require formal training or a pint of heavy cream.
To make soup that your family and friends will rave about, all you need are a handful of wholesome ingredients: two heads of cauliflower, a couple of Yukon gold potatoes, two shallots or a yellow onion, and a fresh bunch of any favorite herb.
As with most soups that include a healthy portion of cooked Yukon gold potatoes, I find that this soup is consistently helpful to those with an inflamed stomach or colon.
How to Make Healthy Fudge
Posted By Dr. Ben KimThis is for fudge and brownie lovers out there who want to enjoy their decadent squares sans flour and refined sugar.

Why Red Beets Should Be A Part Of Your Life
Posted By Dr. Ben KimI'm constantly on the lookout for recipes that call for red beets; per ounce, few foods that I'm aware of are as dense in a variety of nutrients that can help prevent heart disease and certain types of cancer, especially colon cancer. Red beets are particularly rich in B vitamins, including folate, which makes them useful for lowering blood homocysteine and preventing birth defects.
How To Make Korean Jello
Posted By Dr. Ben KimKorean jello isn't sweet like most western dessert varieties. But yowsers, does it ever make for a silky smooth and healthy side dish to steaming bowls of rice and soup. To fully appreciate Korean jello, you have to drizzle on a blend of soy sauce, sesame oil, sesame seeds, and green onions. Add a pinch of chilli powder to the mix and you may just have a new favourite dish for family and friends.
Called doh toh ree mook in Korean, these lovely jello squares can be made with a few different primary ingredients, the healthiest of which are acorn powder and green bean powder - both are readily available in Korean grocery stores. No need to add gelatin - if you follow the instructions below, it will come out just like jello without sugar.
How To Make Dairy and Gluten-Free Macaroni and Cheese
Posted By Dr. Ben KimAs mentioned in my post on The Best Way To Get And Stay Healthy, if you are looking to overcome any chronic health challenge, one of the best first steps that you can take is to avoid conventional dairy and grains that contain gluten. To put it simply, pasteurized and homogenized dairy and gluten are common triggers for inflammation throughout the body.
I realize that for some, it can be quite daunting to imagine a diet that doesn't include cheese and pasta. Which is why I thought it would be a good idea to share dairy and gluten-free options for macaroni and cheese.
Five Foods For A Healthy Digestive System
Posted By Dr. Ben KimIf you're experiencing bloating, belching, abdominal discomfort, or any other symptoms of an overburdened digestive tract, you may benefit from including one or more of the following foods in your diet - all of them are rich in nutrients that are particularly important to the health of your digestive system.

A Lovely Pomegranate and Almond Salad
Posted By Kristen W.With pomegranates in season for most of us, now's the time to infuse our cells with their many health-enhancing nutrients.
Pomegranates are one of nature's best sources of polyphenols and isoflavones, groups of antioxidants that are thought to help suppress and even kill off cancer cells.
Guacamole With A Twist For Healthy Vision
Posted By Kristen W.Love guacamole and feeling a little adventurous? This recipe provides edgy and colourful twists that are likely to please all those who appreciate mashed avocados.
Rich in lutein, vitamin E, carotenoids, and healthy fiber, this mango pomegranate guacamole is good for all of your body parts, but particularly your eyes. Many thanks to Kristen for sharing this lovely recipe with us. - Ben Kim
Easy Peasy Mouthwatering Chickpea Salad
Posted By Kristen W.Chickpeas are one of the least expensive, nutrient-rich foods that you can devour. They're naturally abundant in a number of health-enhancing micro and macronutrients, most notably folate, manganese, tryptophan, copper, iron, and of course, healthy protein.
Due to their high folate and tryptophan content, chickpeas are an excellent food choice for women of child-bearing age and people who have trouble sleeping well. - Ben Kim

Local McDonald's owner receives franchise's highest honor
Local business owner Sue Durlak recently was named the 2011 recipient of the Ronald Award from the McDonald's Corporation. The honor is presented annually to a McDonald's franchisee for outstanding service to the McDonald's brand and local community. Given to only one percent of McDonald's owner/operators nationwide, the award is the highest honor a region can bestow upon a franchisee, as well as the rarest to receive during a franchisee's career. Durlak owns and operates 10 McDonald's restaurants, nine of which are located in Henrico County. Durlak plays a leadership role on several boards and fundraising committees, including the executive boards of the McDonald's Family of Restaurants of Greater Richmond and Ronald McDonald House Charities of Richmond. Durlak is also the event chair for the charities' annual golf tournament and silent auction events and has raised over $1.4 million to-date. Her company, S.M. Durlak, Inc., also has provided sponsorships to local schools and programs. |

Somehow it seems like a backdoor from upstream is regarded less serious than if it originated from inside the Cyanogenmod project. I'm not so sure that is the case. All root exploits are equally serious.
I can think of a few possibilities where upstream would have interest in sabotaging downstream projects. Indeed most probably do, if you consider the locked boot loaders. If unlocked and reflashed devices are backdoored you can still reap whatever benefits locking them down gave you in the first place. And even if it is never used in nefarious ways it is still a PR win to scare people from unlocking. Stranger things have happened.

My Games |
Hello all
I have recently joing a RPG comunity at my local university, and they have had an intresting idea i thourt i would share
They are consdrig runing two rouge trader games agiens each other, so each of the two groups could effect each others profit factors.
The basic idea is run both games at about mid level 40 ship points 50 profit factor befor CC and then work out where they stand and then race to make a profit factor of 100 (or what ever is more resonable) and if the oppitunity presents its self maybe kill the other party if they are in the same place at the same point of time.
any advice or thourts on this idea?
Disclaimer: The above post was brought to you by bad spelling, murdered grammer, and no care or attention. Thank you.

It's a neat concept, and I think it'd work better in Rogue Trader than most systems, since the world is big enough that you'd probably never be in the awkward position of having to GM two groups at once, but the Rogue Traders are big enough to cause ripple effects that the other experiences. "Oh no, some JERK bought all the lasrifles in the sector! Where the hell are we going to get weapons for our army NOW?" sort of thing
Without Signature!!
Campaign ideas like this are far from uncommon, in fact they work well. But they do need some rigid guidelines - a common goal for both groups to work towards and some framework within which to do it. For example a common theme i have seen crop up over the years is that of a sort of race between rogue traders. Each one is given something to transport and must get it to the destination (usually a player across the sector). This then leaves the players with choices to try extended warp travel (risky), try and rush their out of warp (tedious and many stations/patrols to go through) or just directly attack the other players.
Most important i think is whether there is one GM running the groups alternatingly or are their multiple GMs? If multiple, then they need a proper game plan with contingencies all mapped out so that they are running games from the same book, so to speak.
"Only the insane have the strength enough to prosper. Only those who prosper may truly judge what is sane."
The plan is to have two diffrent gms runing the game's were going to make a 10 by 10 inch map with the worlds on it and state what they are so we know whats going on with them and what kind of trade we can genrat.
the idea then is say plant a is a resouce would and plant b is a forge would then the rouge trader can get a 5 point incres with a grand ender
so lets say rouge trader b fineds plant c another resouce world and finds the above mention forge would he could negtioa a better deal and get 4 points and knocking the other group back to 0 points if you get a jist of the idea
we would be throwing in some other random ideas like speding points on an assassin and were planing on having a large space hulk randomly turn up in sectors via dice rolls
Disclaimer: The above post was brought to you by bad spelling, murdered grammer, and no care or attention. Thank you.
I did this in a Black Crusade/Deathwatch game.
Basically, any time they did something exceptionally well in one game, it messed with the other. Deathwatch located an ancient forge for constructing plasma weapons? Excellent. The Crusade loves you. Also, Chaos has to deal with plasma weapons popping up everywhere.
Chaos minions topple a government in order to set it up for slaughter? Guess what! That planet was a useful lynchpin in the defense of the region, and the Tau/Heretics/Tyranids now have an easier target with jacked up support.
Both groups loved it for the unexpectedness, but I made sure they never met, because otherwise it ends with hurt feelings and BS.

Culture ShockI'm a big fan of bizarro music, and nothing in the modern musical universe is more bizarre than contemporary "classical" music. From freaky polyrhythms to scales that have no relation whatsoever to the standard 12-tone note series familiar to Western listeners, you never know what you're going to get. Gallery ReviewMan Versus MachineAlexander Rodchenko: Modern Photography, Photomontage and Film at the UNM Art MuseumHopping from Vancouver to California to New York to Spain, a major traveling exhibit of work by the legendary Russian avant-garde artist Alexander Rodchenko has finally made its way to Albuquerque. The exhibit offers viewers a rare opportunity to consider the profound contributions Rodchenko made to 20th century modernist art while working within the restrictive confines of an authoritarian state. Art MagnifiedThe Way of All FleshInpost ArtspaceI love a good cemetery, largely because death and decay, like chocolate and peanut butter, always seem to go so well together. David Bach and Lauri Dickinson's interest in cemeteries is somewhat less morbid than mine. A new exhibit of Bach's black and white photographs and Dickinson's wax-encased mixed-media images focuses on the quiet, gentle aspects of bone yards all over the world. The Way of All Flesh opens this Friday, March 26, with a reception from 5 to 7 p.m. at the Inpost Artspace. The show runs through April 26. 268-0044. Art MagnifiedOthelloAdobe TheaterDirector David Nava has brought a new production of Shakespeare's disturbing tragedy Othello to the Adobe Theater stage. As head of the American Shakespeare Project, Nava has plenty of experience staging Shakespeare, so this classic tale of revenge, jealousy and betrayal should be worth checking out. Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. Sundays at 2 p.m. $12 general, $10 students/seniors. The play runs through April 11. 892-0697. Book ReviewFrom the CryptBook of the DeadA few years ago, while tooling around Guadalajara all by my lonesome, I came across a funky little exhibit consisting entirely of images of dead kids. Tiny lifeless bodies bleeding on slabs of cold stone. Tiny lifeless bodies clutched in the arms of mourning parents. Tiny lifeless bodies slumped against walls. Tiny lifeless bodies, lots of them, in every imaginable context. alt.pressFound Magazine"Mario, I f**king hate you/You said you were at work then whys your car HERE at HER place??

Barbie amputations and an Amber Alert for Teddy
I cleaned out the Tyrant's room last week. I found an ancient bag of Cheetos, all of the missing Tupperware, 14 naked Barbies, and countless Barbie body parts. Apparently, when the girl plays alone in her room, she turns into Dr. Evil and performs amputations with abandon. A Gym Acquaintance recently told me about a Read More

CNBC said the ADP report is not always accurate in predicting the results of that report.

In the wake of a tragedy such as the Theater 9 shooting in Aurora, Colorado, it becomes necessary to ask some tough questions about the possible causes so that in the future violence may be prevented. Guns are an obvious target here, but few commentators have considered the role that certain antidepressant medications have played in similar shootings over the last decade. Did they also play a role in the Aurora tragedy?
(Image credit)
It has recently been revealed that James Holmes, the alleged Aurora Theater 9 shooter, was seeing a psychiatrist. While it is unknown at this time what specific psychiatric medications Holmes may have been taking, he would not be the first who while on various psychotropic drugs committed an act of homicidal or suicidal rage.
Nearly all of the recent shooters, from Columbine to Virginia Tech to the Rep. Gifford case (as well as many other, less publicized instances) had been receiving some sort of mental health treatment when they unleashed violence on their friends, colleagues, or loved ones. It is not in fact the case, as some mental health pundits suggest, that many of these shooters were not getting help. Quite the opposite – many shooters were often on medications, drugs that could have caused their violent behavior.
Journalist Allison Bass, author of Side Effects, whose reporting at the Boston Globe was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize, has this eye-opening post on her blog about the corpse-littered history of antidepressants. She writes: "In the 25 years since Prozac and the other SSRI antidepressants have been on the market, there has been a long litany of cases like Crespi's, where someone with no history of violence, became agitated and violent after taking these drugs, either killing themselves or their loved ones." Many more stories documenting such unexpected, violent behavior in the wake of antidepressant use can be found on SSRIStories.
The military world is no exception to the apparent antidepressant-induced violence. Dr. Peter Breggin writes about a spectacular increase in violence among U.S. servicemen that correlates with a significant increase in use of antidepressants, concluding that the drugs are dangerous and cause in some who take them homicidal or suicidal fury: "antidepressants never cure biochemical imbalances. Instead, they always cause them. There are no known biochemical imbalances in the brains of depressed people until they start taking toxic psychiatric drugs and every person who takes one of these drugs end up with a significant biochemical disturbance in the brain. That's how the drugs work – by disrupting normal biochemical processes in the brain." The bottom line, according to Breggin: "Antidepressants are a hoax – in this case, a hoax that is killing members of our armed services."

June 13, 2006 – 8:58 am
Well, I suppose since I've received the official word, it's safe to make it public. From August, I take up a new post at UCE: Senior Lecturer and Degree Leader in the Music Industries.
It's a busy time of year at UCE. We're wrapping up the marking, getting things organised for Exam Boards and so on, making sure we have enough students for the new academic year in September – and recruiting the staff we so badly need in a number of areas.
The new degree in Music Industry starts this coming semester, and they needed to appoint a degree leader. Long story short, I applied, interviewed and got the job.
I was genuinely surprised and relieved – because having met the other candidates and having realised how published and how much further along the academic path they were, I knew I was in for some stiff competition.
The interview process was weird – not just because it involves giving a presentation in front of the whole department and being grilled at length by a 5-person panel – but also because it leaves you alone in a room with the other candidates for long stretches of time. It was entirely amicable and, of course, we had a lot to talk about (we're interested in many of the same things).
Afterwards, the three of us headed to the pub and talked shop. Those are some very impressive contacts I'm going to be pursuing.
I'll be on the Online Music Enterprise stuff till the end of August, and there'll no doubt be loose ends to tie up on the project after that, but I'll be in new job mode with lots of preparation to do before the year starts. After all, the Music Industry degree is a new thing – not just at UCE but, as far as I can tell, in the UK.
It's not a music production course, and nor is it about music performance. It's modelled on the kinds of degrees that you can do in radio, television, journalism, new media and so on – with a mix of theory and practical skills. It's designed to cover a wide range of music business environments.
The difference between the other media businesses and the music business is that the latter is far more geared towards entrepreneurialism. There are some big record companies of course – but between them and the one-man band, there's not quite so much going on. Very few 50-employee companies in the music business…
So a large part of the focus of the course will be on the entrepreneurial stuff. Rather than simply learn how to do an entry level job in a media business, you'll learn how to have the business.
Of course, the online thing will feed into that quite substantially. But we'll also be integrating closely with the other media degree courses – because the word 'Music' works so well as a prefix to every single one of them:
Music Radio
Music Television
Music Journalism
Music Photography
Music Promotion and PR
Music Web and New Media
There's a good amount of theory in the mix. This isn't a business course as much as it is about understanding the institutions, context, history, structures and operations of the music business – as well as equipping yourself with the tools to carve out your own place in it.
The possibilities are quite exciting – and it really seems that this hasn't been attempted in the same way anywhere else (with the possible exception of what Matt Mollgaard, Trevor Plant, Peter Hoar and I started to build at AUT, and which they've continued in my absence). Of course, that also means there are research and publication possibilities here – and a degree of self-determination you don't often get in academic posts.
So… I'm quite chuffed.

Three cubs born to a lioness at Rampara Vidi near here a week ago are healthy and so is their mother. This is a good news from conservation point of view with regard to Asiatic lions. Rampara Vidi centre, not accessible to people, was set up by the state forest department for preservation of gene pool (complete set of unique alleles in a species) of Asiatic lions.
"The cubs and the mother are being monitored through CCTV cameras and they are doing well. The weight of each cub is about 1.5 kg. They are under constant care of veterinary doctors," said a senior forest official.
Earlier, in August, 2011, a lioness had given birth to three cubs- two females and a male. Now, another lioness has give birth to three cubs. This will add to the success of lion conservation project in the state. Some lions were shifted from Gir forest to Rampara Vidi in 2010 for gene pool conservation.
There are now 14 Asiatic lions, including six cubs, at Rampara Vidi. Gir forest, the last abode of Asiatic lions, has an estimated population of 411 lions.

Google is loving the sales right now, and the newest one to hit the Play Store is in the music section with the "Legends of the Fall" sale. This is a really good one too because it'll get you some amazing albums for just $2.99 each. So, if you have an Android device, you may want to jump into the Play Store to check it out.
The selection is basically all older albums. The newest selections are albums from 2010 from Fun and The Band Perry, but if you're willing to go farther back in time you can get classics from Radiohead, Beck, U2, Lil Wayne, Kid CuDi, The Roots, Stevie Wonder, David Bowie, DMX, Lady Gaga, Dr. Dre, and a lot more.
Definitely a good one, and you can find it in the Play Store.

My mother ran my father over when I was nine or ten years old. I was in the backseat at the time and I remember the unmistakably bump of car-over-body and for a moment it was almost worse—the car kept rolling backwards, my mother trying to jump over the middle console to get from the passenger's seat to the driver's seat, pulling the handbrake, ruining it, finally getting her foot on the pedal.
At least that's how I remember it. My dad was trying to get into the driver's seat but one of my brothers had parked their car too close. He couldn't squeeze in. He told my mother to switch the car into neutral and he'd jump in as it rolled gently backwards.
Instead, he was sucked under. I watched his torso disappear under the car and there was that thump, that thud, that tremendous jerk. My mother screaming, swearing. Me, quiet and uncertain. Thinking he was probably dead, but maybe not knowing exactly what that would mean.
He wasn't dead, turns out. He wasn't even particularly hurt. In a moment of panic, my mother leapt out of the car and hooked him around the armpits and wrenched him to his feet.
Shit, he said. You ran me over.
You were supposed to jump in the fucking car!
Shit, Mom, one of my brothers said from the front porch. You just ran Dad over.
He was supposed to jump in the fucking car!
Today my mom came into my bedroom at seven in the morning. Come on and see two turkeys mating, she said.
I don't know why, but as we stood at the door to the back porch and watched these turkeys perform their particular set of bird duties, I thought of my dad getting run over by that car. The thump. The noise. The way we all laughed about it later. The way he could have been killed, you know? I doubt many people get run over by cars and escape with nothing more than a bruise.
The turkeys, the car. Somehow related. Maybe they both took place in the spring.

I've left many places.
When I was eighteen, I left my home for the first time. I went to a small school on the shores of Massachusetts. Four months later I left that place and I went to another school, this one in the middle of Boston. Four months later I left that school and moved into a shitty apartment in Cambridge. I buried two hermit crabs in jewelry boxes in a dark courtyard and eight months after that I left Cambridge, too. I moved home again and went to a third school, a final school. That's where I got my degree.
A year and a half after leaving Cambridge, I left Connecticut for the second time. I moved to Brooklyn. Then I left Brooklyn and moved to Manhattan. Then I left Manhattan and went back to Brooklyn. Then Connecticut. Then Scotland.
Eight months later, I'm leaving Scotland. I'm good at leaving places. It's something I've been practicing. I leave places in my sleep. I go to sleep in one place and I wake up in some other place. Sometimes, at first, I don't even realize it. Some places look the same. Some places are the same in most ways. Some places are different in very quiet, hard to notice ways. Some places, you could be there for months and then suddenly realize—oh. this is not where i thought i was at all.
Today I walked for a really long time. I walked for two and a half miles. It was kind of like leaving. It was practice, really. Practice for leaving.
Last night I had a dream. I woke up in a sunny Santa Monica apartment. S had left for work. I wanted to go running, and so I got up and got dressed and went out. I ran for a while and then I looked around me and realized I didn't know where I was anymore. There was some kind of river in front of me and there were all these bridges. I couldn't run anymore but I didn't want to stay there.
That was kind of like leaving, too.
Sometimes you leave on purpose. Other times you fall into it. Sometimes you're happy about leaving. Sometimes you're sad. Sometimes you're scared. Always you're ready. You're ready to leave when it's time to leave. The day before leaving, you might not want to go anymore. But then the morning gets here and you've already got your shoes on and you're waiting by the door.
I'm good at packing suitcases. I'm good at remembering everything that belongs to me. I'm good at waking up early. I'm good at going, going, gone.

…the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars.

The bus from Palm Springs to downtown LA broke down in a tiny, nameless desert town. Nobody spoke English. The bus driver didn't speak English. The man sitting next to me—an overjoyed, perpetually smiling character who was traveling with his large family and who kept offering me pieces of some kind of Mexican flatbread—couldn't speak English. We all filed off the bus and I stood looking lost and unfortunate with my suitcase and camera bag and an almost-dead phone. I found a seat on a folding chair next to the side of the one room bus station, currently closed. Pretty soon a young couple—two teenage girls dressed in dirty tank tops and Converse sneakers—approached me. They hung onto each other uncomfortably, lips locked and coming up for air only to ask me the occasional question. Do you know what the fuck's going on? Nobody speaks English, right? We can't get through to customer service.
When the next bus came—finally, hours later—only one of them got on. She sat next to me. I wrote about her, briefly, here.
In front of us were three more teenagers: a girl and two boys. They were high on something, could barely keep their eyes opened. They giggled at the air.
We saw you making out with that girl, one of them said. That's cool though. You're a lesbian.
She's my girlfriend, my seatmate said. I don't think she ever introduced herself.
That's nice, that's cool. How did you meet her? Why are you leaving her behind?
We met online, she said.
How long have you been together?
Oh, only the last couple hours. We only met for the first time at the bus stop.
She had another girlfriend back home in Minnesota, she explained.
She was one of those people who talks fast and high and offers you whatever she has—food or drinks or hits from a moist joint. One of those people who want so much to be talked to and to be listened to that they'll say anything they think you want to hear. She was entertaining. She kept those three teenagers transfixed for the three hours to LA. I put my headphones on and closed my eyes and felt the dust of the desert on every square inch of my skin.
I thought about her last night when I couldn't sleep. I woke up around midnight to a dream about spiders and I lay in bed with the lights out playing Hearts on my phone. I don't know what made me think of her. Probably just—she was fascinating. She was young and she was scared and she was fascinating. And who knows how much of what she said was true. It doesn't really matter anyway. It was all because she wanted someone to talk to her. It was all because she didn't want to be alone.

This is the last time I'll write one of these. In five days I leave Scotland for the next big thing, the next weird adventure. I'm not quite ready to announce what that is, but in some ways it's safer than coming here and in other ways it's a whole new set of risks and chances.
Yesterday I took a long walk. I was behind a little family, a mom and a dad and a young boy. As I watched, the boy doubled over and put his hand to his mouth. His parents stopped and watched him. And then he started laughing. Laughing, laughing, and he pulled his hand away from his mouth and held his palm up to show them. A little white tooth. He'd lost a tooth. The mom laughed, took it, put it into her pocket. The dad was overjoyed. He ruffled the kid's hair. He kissed the kid on the top of his head. He put his arm around the kid and pulled him close.
Next I walked through a little street fair on Castle Street and a man behind a booth gave me a little pink rock. He handed me four pieces of oddly-cut wood and told me to make a square. I couldn't. I try, and I couldn't.
It's for luck! he insisted.
I tried, I said.
It's good luck if you can do it, he said.
I left the pieces on the counter. I took the rock. I held it in my hand like a tooth. I waited for praise.

The Louvre was enormous and impossible to navigate. My brother held the map and led us to the main attractions: The Mona Lisa, St. Mary Magdalene, Venus de Milo. We passed Sleeping Hermaphroditos by mistake. The mattress, carved by Bernini, looks anything but stone-like. You want to touch it. You want to confirm its hardness. The figure- eyes closed, blankets mussed, unapologetically nude- is tranquil and calm. It's like a photograph come to life. I could have looked at it for hours.

Usually we walk around constantly believing ourselves. "I'm okay" we say. "I'm alright". But sometimes the truth arrives on you and you can't get it off. That's when you realize that sometimes it isn't even an answer—it's a question. Even now, I wonder how much of my life is convinced.

STM - Society in motion
The new bus body workshop February 18, 2009
Vegetation roof and walls to keep the building naturally cool in summer, highly energy-efficient boilers, low-emission materials and others made from recycled matter, all made in Québec… Every detail was well-thought out, making the STM's new bus body workshop, where major maintenance work is conducted, a building that reflects the ideals of sustainable development.
Construction of the eco-friendly building was made possible through the support of Transports Québec. The building is also noteworthy for its harmonious integration in the surrounding residential neighbourhood. Proof that everyone wins when thinking green.
Green is trump for the STM's new bus body workshop
> Vegetation Roof
From atop its 950 m2, the workshop's green rooftop will also help control water run-off by cutting its amount by half, double the roof's service life, counteract urban heat pockets and periods of smog, increase the building's energy efficiency and promote bio-diversity.
> Solar Wall
The 500 m2 solar wall will help to heat the building naturally by making maximum use of the sun's heat in winter. Energy-efficient, the wall could lead to annual savings of 24 700 m3 of natural gas.
> Vegetation-covered Walls
These vegetation barriers, designed to support vines and other plant, will act as a natural filter for air pollutants and as a sound buffer, while keeping the building cool in summer.
> Heat recovery
Installing high performance boilers will lead to a 10% increase in energy efficiency.
> Roller Compacted Concrete Pavements
More resistant than flexible pavement, this concrete mix is expected to last some 15 years longer than asphalt. It prevents collapsing pavement, potholes and ruts, while calming the effects of urban heat pockets. Highly resistant to abrasion, it is impervious to water, oil and fuel, a must for any eco-friendly bus body workshop.
> Green Spaces
Bicycle racks, rain water retention ponds landscaped with plant material, newly planted trees and recreational areas all add up to a workshop in harmony with its residential neighbourhood.

Mediterranean potato salad goes well with barbecue
When I first was asked to prepare a potato salad for 90 people, I hesitated a bit, mainly because my preconceived idea of a potato salad did not make me very enthusiastic. Then I looked into few recipes and realized I could use fresh ingredients and make a very healthy potato salad.
The variety of potato that you use is not very crucial to the end result. The main factor for success is to stop the potatoes' cooking when they start to transition from firm to soft. That's the timing factor that determines whether your potatoes will not take the form of mashed potatoes.
Red potatoes cook differently than gold Yukon or russet potatoes. If you use red potatoes or gold Yukon, they can be cooked with the skin on and mixed as they are. Russet potatoes need to have the skin removed due to its thickness. Using farm-fresh eggs and a high-quality olive oil will make the difference in flavor. Red and green onions are in season, so use this opportunity to add them.
Serves 12-16
8-10 large potatoes, quartered into 1-1⁄2-inch cubes (if using red or gold Yukon, keep the skin on; peel russets)
6-8 farm-fresh eggs
1 medium red onion, peeled and diced
1 bunch of green onions (about 5 pieces), trimmed and sliced very thinly (discard the end pieces)
1-1⁄2 cups aioli-mayo dressing, recipe follows
Kosher salt and ground pepper, to taste
1⁄2 cup parsley, finely chopped
1 cup black Kalamata pitted olives, thinly sliced
1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
1⁄4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1⁄4 cup Meyer lemon juice
Cook the potatoes with the eggs in a large pot of boiling water. Remove the eggs after 12 minutes and let them cool in cold water before peeling. Remove the eggshells by first cracking the thinner round end, then chop the hard-boiled eggs and set aside.
Cook the potatoes until they are fork-tender. Drain the pot and run cold water over the potatoes for five minutes, until cool. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, onions, aioli dressing and diced eggs. Add salt and pepper and continue mixing, ideally using your hands. Add the parsley, olives, feta, oil and lemon juice and mix together well. Let the flavors settle before serving.
Any barbecued meat, fish or poultry will go perfectly with this potato salad recipe.
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 cup whole grain Dijon mustard
1 farm-fresh egg yolk, raw or coddled, see cook's notes
1⁄2 cup canola oil
1⁄2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1⁄4 cup Meyer lemon juice
Cook's notes: In this recipe, you may use the egg yolk either raw or coddled. Generally the dressing's pH level is thought to be acidic enough to kill bacteria contained in the raw egg. To coddle the egg yolk: Boil enough water to immerse the egg still in its shell. Remove the pan from the heat and carefully lower the egg into the boiled water. Let the egg rest in the water for one minute, then remove the egg to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. When cooled, separate the egg and add the yolk to the food processor.
In a food processor, combine the garlic and mustard. Add the egg yolk and gradually add the olive and canola oils together in a thin stream while blending. Process until the mixture is thick and fluffy. Add the lemon juice and process until the dressing is firm but still a bit fluffy.
