However it is subject to change, and does not form part of the contract between the client and the operator. The itinerary featured is correct at time of printing. It may differ slightly to the one in the brochure. Occasionally our itineraries change as we make improvements that stem from past travellers, comments and our own research. Sometimes it can be a small change like adding an extra meal along the itinerary. Sometimes the change may result in us altering the tour for the coming year. Ultimately, our goal is to provide you with the most rewarding experience. Please note that our brochure is usually released in November each year. If you have booked from the previous brochure you may find there have been some changes to the itinerary.
VERY IMPORTANT: Please ensure that you print a final copy of your Trip Details to review a couple of days prior to travel, in case there have been changes that affect your plans.
Itinerary Disclaimer
While it is our intention to adhere to the route described below, there is a certain amount of flexibility built into the itinerary and on occasion it may be necessary, or desirable to make alterations. The itinerary is brief, as we never know exactly where our journey will take us. Due to our style of travel and the regions we visit, travel can be unpredictable. The Trip Details document is a general guide to the tour and region and any mention of specific destinations or wildlife is by no means a guarantee that they will be visited or encountered. Aboard expedition trips visits to research stations depend on final permission.
Additionally, any travel times listed are approximations only and subject to vary due to local circumstances.
Itinerary Notes
While it is our intention to follow the itinerary as advertised, some modifications to the itinerary may be needed if water levels become very low. This is rare, but please note that some excursions and activities may change if it is necessary to modify the vessel route.
Important Notes
1. While it is our intention to follow the itinerary as advertised, some modifications to the itinerary may be needed if water levels become very low. This is rare, but please note that some excursions and activities may change if it is necessary to modify the vessel route.
2. Please note that there are a limited number of bicycles on board, and as such, there will not be enough bicycles to accommodate every passenger at a given time. Please speak to your CEO about arranging a bicycle share schedule at the beginning of your tour.
3. All travellers are strongly encouraged to pack a reusable water bottle that can be filled from the water fountain on board the barge.
Group Leader Description

About our Transportation
Passengers will be required to walk during land excursions, and cycle for the duration of cycling excursions. Please see the full itinerary for information on distance and durations per excursion.
The cycling routes on this tour are moderately challenging, with a few inclined paths (approx 40k, 25mi per route). E-bikes are available for rent to be used for both excursions. The cost of renting an e-bike is 50EUR to be paid in cash directly to the vessel staff upon arrival. Please note that the number of e-bikes is limited, and to secure an e-bike for your tour we recommend informing your booking agent in advance; otherwise, an e-bike rental can be arranged at the start of your tour, dependent on availability.
Solo Travellers
We believe solo travellers should not have to pay more to travel so our group trips are designed for shared accommodation and do not involve a single supplement. Single travellers joining group trips are paired in twin or multi-share accommodation with someone of the same sex for the duration of the trip. Some of our Independent trips are designed differently and solo travellers on these itineraries must pay the single trip price.

What to Take

You must be prepared to carry your luggage up and down stairs, as well as on and off transportation.
Dress on board is informal. Plan to bring comfortable, casual clothing for all activities. When packing, we suggest that you do not weigh yourself down with too many clothes or too much gear. Select informal, practical attire that can be worn in layers.

Contact your local embassy or consulate for the most up-to-date visa requirements, or see your travel agent. It is your responsibility to have the correct travel documentation. While we provide the following information in good faith, it is vital that you check yourself and understand that you are fully responsible for your own visa requirements.
All visitors to the EU (European Union) and EEC (European Economic Community) countries require a valid passport (with a minimum 6 months validity). USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand passport holders do not need a visa to visit the Schengen area (see below), however they may not stay longer than three months in any 6-month period.
For other nationalities, travelling in Europe has been simplified with the introduction of the Schengen visa. As a visitor to the Schengen area (Austria, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, Greece, Norway, Denmark, Iceland, Portugal, Finland, Italy, Spain, France, Luxembourg, Sweden, Czech Republic, Hungary, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia and Switzerland) you will enjoy the many advantages of this unified visa system. Generally speaking with a Schengen visa, you may enter one Schengen country and travel freely throughout the Schengen region during the validity of your visa. There are limited border controls at Schengen borders, if any at all.
Please note that the UK and Ireland are NOT part of the Schengen agreement.
A Schengen visa is applied for at the Embassy or Consulate of the Schengen country in which you will be spending the most nights on your trip to the Schengen space. If you are only visiting one country on your trip then you apply for your visa at the Consulate of this Schengen country.
Spending Money
Every traveller is different and therefore spending money requirements will vary. Some travellers may drink more than others while other travellers like to purchase more souvenirs than most. Please consider your own spending habits when it comes to allowing for drinks, shopping and tipping. Please also remember the following specific recommendations when planning your trip.
Money Exchange
Credit cards and debit cards are very useful for cash advances. Visa cards are the most widely accepted. While ATMs are commonly available, there are no guarantees that your credit or debit cards will actually work in Western Europe. Check with your bank before departure. You should be aware when making purchases or withdrawing cash on a credit card that a fee usually applies. Do not rely on credit or debit cards as your only source of money. A combination of Euros, travellers' cheques and cards is best. Always take more rather than less, as you don't want to spoil the trip by constantly feeling short of funds.
As currency exchange rates can fluctuate often we ask that you refer to the following website for daily exchange rates: www.xe.com
Emergency Fund
Please also make sure you have access to at least an additional USD $200 (or equivalent) as an 'emergency' fund, to be used when circumstances outside our control (ex. a natural disaster) require a change to our planned route. This is a rare occurrence!
It is customary in Europe to leave a small tip for service providers, such as waiters, if you are pleased with the service (€1-2).
Tipping is an expected – though not compulsory – component of your tour program, and an expression of satisfaction with the persons who have assisted you on your tour. Although it may not be customary to you, it is of considerable significance to the people who will take care of you during your travels. There are several times during the trip where there is opportunity to tip the local guides. You may do this individually, or your CEO will offer to collect the money and tip as a group. Recommendations for tipping local guides would range from €3-5 per day, depending on the quality and length of the service; ask your CEO for specific recommendations based on the circumstances and culture.
Also at the end of each trip if you felt your G Adventures CEO did an outstanding job, tipping is appreciated. The amount is entirely a personal preference, however, the following guideline (per week) can be used: as a guideline €30-40 per person, per week can be used.
CEO: €30-40 per person, per week
Barge staff: €60 per person can be left in the room at the end of your stay, this will be split up between the barge staff
Local guide hire: €5-10 per person per day
Optional Activities
Please see the itinerary for information on optional activities, descriptions and estimated pricing.
Safety and Security
Many national governments provide a regularly updated advice service on safety issues involved with international travel. We recommend that you check your government's advice for their latest travel information before departure. We strongly recommend the use of a neck wallet or money belt while travelling, for the safe keeping of your passport, air tickets, travellers' cheques, cash and other valuable items. Leave your valuable jewelery at home – you won't need it while travelling. Many of the hotels we use have safety deposit boxes, which is the most secure way of storing your valuables. A lock is recommended for securing your luggage. When travelling on a group trip, please note that your group leader has the authority to amend or cancel any part of the trip itinerary if it deemed necessary, due to safety concerns. Your Chief Experience Officer (CEO) will accompany you on all included activities. During your trip you will have some free time to pursue your own interests, relax and take it easy and explore at your leisure. While your CEO will assist you with options available in a given location, please note that any optional activities you undertake are not part of your itinerary, and we offer no representations about the safety of the activity or the standard of the operators running them. Please use your own good judgement when selecting an activity in your free time. Although the cities visited on tour are generally safe during the day, there can be risks to wandering throughout any major city at night. It is our recommendation to stay in small groups and to take taxis to and from restaurants, or during night time excursions.
Water based activities have an element of danger and excitement built into them. We recommend only participating in water based activities when accompanied by a guide(s). We make every reasonable effort to ensure the fun and adventurous element of any water based activities (in countries with varying degrees of operating standards), have a balanced approach to safety. It is our policy not to allow our CEOs to make arrangements on your behalf for water based activities that are not accompanied by guide(s).
Swimming, including snorkeling, is always at your own risk. Read more about travel safety for ways to further enhance your personal safety while traveling.
Medical Form
Our small group adventures bring together people of all ages. It is very important you are aware that an average level of fitness and mobility is required to undertake our easiest programs. Travellers must be able to walk without the aid of another person, climb 3-4 flights of stairs, step on and off small boats, and carry their own luggage at a minimum. Travellers with a pre-existing medical condition are required to complete a short medical questionnaire, which must be signed by their physician. This is to ensure that travellers have the necessary fitness and mobility to comfortably complete their chosen trip. While our leaders work hard to ensure that all our travellers are catered for equally, it is not their responsibility to help individuals who cannot complete the day's activities unaided. Please refer to the physical ratings in this Trip Details document for more information.
Please note that all passengers traveling to Antarctica are required to fill out this questionnaire.
The medical questionnaire can be found online at www.gadventures.com/medical-form.
A Couple of Rules
Illegal drugs will not be tolerated on any trips. Possessing or using drugs not only contravenes the laws of the land but also puts the rest of the group at risk. Smoking marijuana and opium is a part of local culture in some parts of the world but is not acceptable for our travellers. Our philosophy of travel is one of respect towards everyone we encounter, and in particular the local people who make the world the special place it is. The exploitation of prostitutes is completely contrary to this philosophy. Our group leader has the right to expel any member of the group if drugs are found in their possession or if they use prostitutes.
Travel Insurance
Travel insurance is compulsory in order to participate on any of our trips. When travelling on a group trip, you will not be permitted to join the group until evidence of travel insurance has been sighted by your leader, who will take note of your insurance details. When selecting a travel insurance policy we require that at a minimum you are covered for medical expenses including emergency evacuation and repatriation. A minimum coverage of USD200,000 is required. G Adventures can provide you with the appropriate coverage. We strongly recommend that the policy also covers personal liability, cancellation, curtailment and loss of luggage and personal effects. Some tours include adventure activities that require extra coverage (e.g. crampon use); please review your itinerary and make sure that you are covered for all included activities. If you have credit card insurance we require proof of purchase of the trip (a receipt of credit card statement) with a credit card in your name. Contact your bank for details of their participating insurer, the level of coverage and emergency contact telephone number.

I think it would be nice to have one, mainly for total conversions, here a few examples:
Out of Hell for ut2k4
Hexen: Edge Of Chaos for doom3
The Dark Mod for doom3
Tribal Wars for etqw
all (non-standalone) spring mods: 1944, Zero-K, ...
all (non-standalone) fs2 mods, etc.
Upon the time, I have to say: it should be up to the authors to decide wether its mod or game. Total Conversion is another matter though.
I was very active in Zero-K, and blow those called ZK a mod. And submit 2 times in Springlobby bug tracker to ask for the "mod" change to "game".
As spring is engine only, and Conflict Terra, Kernel Panic, Spring 1944, Gundam RTS have no relationship with original Total Annihlation. They should not get tags of "mod" or "total conversion".
For those complain about engine / game seperate. Do you conplain about GTK seperate from GIMP?
see description on Wikipedia:
Mod or modification is a term generally applied to personal computer games (PC games), especially first-person shooters, role-playing games and real-time strategy games. Mods are made by the general public or a developer, and can be entirely new games in themselves, but mods are not standalone software and require the user to have the original release in order to run.
for example the windows release of Gundam RTS isn't a mod, because it includes the spring engine
I don't think the wikipedia article writers ever consider Open source game that people make Engine only and game made by others. And distribute sepeartely. There isn't original game here, no rules from Wikipedia apply as the article do not stand for explaining springrts under linux.
Spring was originally developed as a foss replacement to the TA engine, so yes, there is an original game.
If the ioquake engine wasn't opensourced, and someone wrote a foss replacement the situation would be the same.
In the end this is a pointless complaint, as this is the best way to deal with such games, and you aren't even offering an alternative.

Find out how you could get pregnant even if you haven't had sex (your partner's penis didn't enter your vagina) and how to avoid getting pregnant like this.
Yes, although the risk of getting pregnant in this way is very low. If you want to avoid getting pregnant, you should use contraception.
Pregnancy happens when a man's sperm fertilises a woman's egg, which can happen even if you've not had sexual intercourse (penetration).
During sex, semen is ejaculated from the man's penis into the woman's vagina. A man's semen (the liquid produced when he ejaculates or "comes") contains millions of sperm. One ejaculation can contain more than 300 million sperm.
As soon as the penis is erect, before the man ejaculates, a liquid called pre-ejaculate is produced. This liquid can contain thousands of sperm. Men have no control over the production of this liquid.
A woman's ovaries release one or more eggs (ovulation) 12-16 days before her next period.
The man's sperm enters the woman's body through her vagina, then travels through her cervix and womb to the fallopian tubes, where an egg is fertilised (conception). The egg can be fertilised by sperm contained in semen or pre-ejaculate.
It's possible for you to get pregnant without having sexual intercourse if, for example:
The risk of getting pregnant in this way is very low because sperm can only live for a short time outside of the body. However, if you're not planning a pregnancy, it's important to know that it's possible to get pregnant in this way.
If you don't want to get pregnant, you should use contraception. For information about the different methods, see: which method of contraception suits me?
It's also important to remember that only condoms can protect you against both pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections (STIs). If you use a condom, put it on as soon as your partner's penis is erect, to prevent any sperm from coming into contact with your vagina.

Awareness and Preparedness
|BULUSAN VOLCANO BULLETIN 23 December 2010 5:00 P.M.
|Thursday, 23 December 2010 17:55
At 9:16 A.M. today, an ash explosion occurred at the summit crater of Bulusan Volcano (12°46.2'N, 124°03'E). A grayish steam and ash column rose to about 500 meters above the crater rim and drifted south-southwest. The event was recorded as an explosion type volcanic earthquake preceded by a tremor type volcanic earthquake that lasted for thirty minutes and fifty seconds. Field investigation carried out immediately after the explosion showed that no ashfall was observed beyond the 4-km Permanent Danger Zone (PDZ).
Alert Level 1 remains enforced over Bulusan Volcano area. The public is strongly advised not to enter the 4-kilometer radius Permanent Danger Zone (PDZ) because the area is at risk to sudden steam and ash explosions. Because of the prevailing wind direction, people residing in the northwest and southwest sectors of the volcano are reminded to take precautions against ashfalls. Civil aviation authorities must also warn pilots to avoid flying close to the volcano's summit as ejected ash and volcanic fragments from sudden explosions may pose hazards to aircrafts. Furthermore, residents near valleys and river/stream channels should be vigilant against sediment-laden stream flows and lahars in the event of heavy and continuous rainfall. DOST-PHIVOLCS is closely monitoring Bulusan Volcano's activity and any new significant development will be immediately relayed to all concerned.

NEW YORK (AP) — Amazon.com took a hit Friday after its revenue forecast caught investors off guard.
THE SPARK: Amazon's first-quarter earnings were stronger than expected and revenue was in the ball park. For the current quarter, however, the company projected revenue of $14.5 billion to $16.2 billion. The midpoint of the range is lower than the $15.92 billion that analysts' estimates, according to FactSet.
Canaccord analyst Michael Graham said Amazon's first-quarter results were "marked by solid growth, especially in North America, while International growth stalled" even after adjusting for currency fluctuations. He added that with Amazon's heavy investments leading to prolonged low profit margins, the company's stock "may stall for a bit" in the face of decelerating revenue growth.
While analysts are accustomed to conservative outlooks from the world's largest online retailer, Graham described it as slightly more bearish than the usual low end.
BACKGROUND: The company has been investing heavily in enhancing its distribution network, its shopping website and its Kindle business as part of a long-term growth plan. Because of that, and deep discounts it offers customers, Amazon's profit margins have been thin.
SHARE ACTION: Shares of Amazon.com Inc., based in Seattle, fell $19.53, or 7.1 percent, to $255.17 in midday trading. The stock has traded in the 52-week range of $206.37 and $284.72.

Richardson School of Law students weigh in on global human rights abuses
Led by Law Professor Tae-Ung Baik, former "prisoner of conscience" in South KoreaUniversity of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa
Interim Associate Dean for Student Services, William S Richardson School of Law
Beverly Creamer, (808)389-5736
Media Consultant, William S. Richardson School of Law
Upperclass law students in an international human rights seminar at the William S. Richardson School of Law at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa are attempting to affect change in issues ranging from the treatment of prisoners in Cambodia through the unfair methods of food assistance provided to the poor in Canada to cases of "corrective rape" in South Africa.
Students are taking action including petitioning the United Nations, filing briefs in law cases on the other side of the Pacific, and maneuvering to alter labor laws in areas of the Middle East with the hope of easing discriminatory hiring practices.
Allison Williams, for example, is preparing recommendations she will send to South African delegates at the United Nations to increase their understanding of the practice referred to as "corrective rape" - acts perpetrated against gay women by men determined to change their sexual orientation.
"This is not being tracked now," said Williams.
Tom Villalon hopes to promote awareness both in the U.S. and internationally to support abolishing the death penalty. "Thirty-three states still have the death penalty," said Villalon. "I plan to contact key policy makers individually, sending them a memorandum outlining the legal, economic, and social arguments against it."
Lindsay Larkins will be writing to the Australian prosecutor regarding a current court case of female genital mutilation. "If the courts begin to utilize existing laws to actually criminalize this behavior," wrote Larkin, "it may make a difference and help eradicate female genital mutilation in areas that openly condemn the practice but do not enforce the laws."
Meanwhile Spencer Jim On is researching a new legislative effort in Egypt to restrict the activity of human rights groups in that country, while Eliza Browning is looking into ways to encourage the Obama Administration to ratify the Convention on the Rights of the Child.
These and an additional half dozen concerted efforts to affect change in other areas of human rights abuses are part of a course taught by Law Professor Tae-Ung Baik, who was himself a "prisoner of conscience" in South Korea in the 1990's.
In 1992 Baik was arrested and charged with violating South Korea's National Security Law because of his leadership of the South Korean Socialist Coalition of Workers. He suffered weeks of interrogation and torture. Because of intervention by Amnesty International, his sentence first of life imprisonment and then of 15 years imprisonment, was reduced to six years and three months. He was freed in 1998.
Baik joined the Richardson School of Law in 2011 after eight years as an assistant law professor at the University of British Columbia in Canada. He also worked a year as a legal research intern and consultant for Human Rights Watch in New York.
"We are very lucky to have persuaded Professor Baik to join our faculty," said Richardson Law School Dean Avi Soifer. "He is a very strong scholar and his deep knowledge of Korean Law combined with his abiding grasp of international human rights make him a major catch for our Law School."
In the next academic year, Professor Baik expects to launch an international human rights "clinic course" at Richardson, enabling students to take even more active positions in fighting human rights abuses globally.
With Baik's encouragement, Hawai'i law students are weighing in on human rights abuses with passion and insight, while taking steps to produce change. "My hope is to see some bigger things grow from this," Baik explained.
(For interviews with students, Professor Tae-Ung Baik can be reached at either (808) 956-7838 or firstname.lastname@example.com.)

Senate transport budget advances with CRC deal
By JONATHAN KAMINSKY
Of the Associated Press
OLYMPIA — The Washington state Senate's transportation budget proposal advanced from committee Thursday after being bottled up over disagreement on funding for the Columbia River Crossing project.
The proposed budget advanced from the Senate Transportation Committee by a unanimous vote. It is expected to come before the full Senate by the end of the week.
"I'm very happy with the compromise," said Sen. Don Benton, R-Vancouver, a vociferous opponent of the Interstate 5 bridge project over the Columbia River as currently conceived.
The deal to advance the budget plan hinged on withholding almost all of the roughly $82 million allocated toward the bridge project until the U.S. Coast Guard decides whether to issue a key permit. That decision is expected in September.
The Coast Guard in October expressed concerns that the proposed height of the bridge was too low. The planned height has since been raised from 95 feet to 116 feet.
The budget debate runs parallel to one over a separate transportation revenue package under consideration in the House. That proposal would put $450 million toward the bridge project — the money that supporters say is necessary to keep up to $1.2 billion in federal support on track.
Oregon lawmakers in March committed $450 million toward the project, contingent on Washington state doing the same.
Benton said the Coast Guard's decision on whether to grant the permit would not change his view that the project shouldn't move forward in its current design.
"The project will not receive construction funding from (the Republican-dominated Senate majority) as long as light rail is attached to the project, period," said Benton. "We will not fund Oregon's light rail coming into Washington state."
Under the compromise, the Senate panel also agreed to authorize an audit of how money on the bridge project has been spent. The Republican-dominated Senate majority has separately asked Gov. Jay Inslee, a Democrat and staunch supporter of the project, to initiative such a review.
Benton said he suspects an audit would uncover project funds having been spent improperly. He declined to expand on those allegations for fear, he said, of jeopardizing his sources.
Senate Transportation Committee co-chair Tracey Eide, D-Federal Way, said she'd be happy to have a full accounting of how money has been spent on the bridge project but that she doesn't believe it would uncover anything untoward.
"I'm hoping that we can check it out, make sure that everything's copacetic, that everything's cool, and then just keep on moving forward," said Eide.

The wreckage of Thursday's accident remains a grim reminder of how violent the attack was at the home on Ravensworth at Wembley in southwest Houston. One of the victim's shoes is still sitting atop a pile of bricks which is littered with medical supplies from her emergency care.
"They just don't like each other. I don't know if it's because of me or what," boyfriend Chris Chaney told Eyewitness News. "I mean, I am handsome."
Chaney grinned and bragged Thursday about a fight between his current and former girlfriends -- both are pregnant with his children. But on Friday, the man who called himself a heartbreaker has a different attitude. His sister, Monique Walker, said he's not taking the situation well.
"They both know that they have to take it just one day at a time," Walker said.
She says Chaney's current girlfriend, Alise Kelley, 21, had part of her right leg amputated. Walker wasn't sure the extent of the amputation.
"It's a lot of bandages. I don't know," she said. "I just know it's down at the bottom.
Kelley was severely injured Thursday morning when police say Chaney's former girlfriend, Shareyll Hunter, 26, took Chaney's car and rammed Kelley against the wall with it.
Hunter, who is five months pregnant, has been on the run ever since. Kelley, who is four months pregnant, has been at Memorial Hermann hospital undergoing extensive surgery.
"The baby is doing fine," Chaney's mother said. "It's a boy."
Chaney's family members say Kelley is in shock and heavily medicated.
"She's upset but she's not saying too much," Walker said.
Police say they have received tips on Hunter's whereabouts, but they haven't been able to reach her. Chaney adds that she seems to have turned off her phone and he has been unable to speak with her.

Llodra slams shootings denier, university
NEWTOWN -- First Selectman Pat Llodra is disgusted by an associate professor's allegations that the Sandy Hook Elementary School shootings was a hoax, and angry at Florida Atlantic University for employing him.
Llodra said the blog and public remarks by communications professor James Tracy are "wholly wrong, inconsiderate and insensitive" and that he would use this traumatic loss for "outlandish conspiracy theories" is "an insult to all caring people."
Tracy writes in a blog titled "Memory Hole," that the coverage of the shooting was "intended primarily for public consumption to further larger political ends." Tracy's lengthy assessment of the massacre is that it was a contrived event, and he suggests some survivors and families who spoke on camera were "crisis actors."
In a news release, Llodra said, "Shame on you, too, FAU, to even have someone like this on your payroll."
Tracy's voice mail in his college office said Thursday that it was "not accepting messages."
The university would not say whether he has been disciplined or removed from their faculty. The media relations office said the university does not comment on personnel matters.
FAU President Mary Jane Saunders did release a statement saying that Tracy's remarks about the Sandy Hook tragedy do not reflect the views of the university, "and I am personally saddened by any media stories that have added pain felt by the victims' families.
"FAU joins the entire nation and people around the world in feeling profound grief for the lives lost on that awful day," Saunders said of the shooting that resulted in the deaths of 20 first-graders, four teachers, the principal and a school psychologist. The gunman, Adam Lanza, also killed his mother, Nancy Lanza, before going to the school, and killed himself after his shooting spree.
"Our hearts break for the victims, their loved ones and friends, and all the people of Newtown," Saunders wrote. "The world lost innocent children and brave adults whose lives were dedicated to education. In the aftermath of this terrible tragedy, we learned of the tremendous heroism of the Sandy Hook teachers and administrators. We admire their courage in the face of unspeakable horror and we honor their memory."
Several residents and Newtown leaders asked about Tracy's remarks declined to be comment, aside from saying that to do so would be to give publicity to someone who deserves none. Beyond her official statement, Llodra said she would have no further comment as she has no desire to engage with "extremists."
"Professor Tracy is an embarrassment to me as an educator and should be to you (FAU) as well," Llodra said in her written statement. "I can assure you, sadly, that the events here in Newtown unfolded exactly as are being reported, with the horrible outcome of the violent death of 26 innocent people, including 20 children."
Llodra attended virtually all of those funerals, memorial services and calling hours.
"I ask that every media outlet and the university remove all such insensitive statements being made by Mr. Tracy," Llodra wrote. "Haven't these parents and the community been hurt enough?"

text: Engagement strategy brings Jewish life to students by Cara Stern |Feb 06, 2013|Comments Originally published February 1, 2013 in The Canadian Jewish News By Cara Stern, Staff Reporter Hillel's newest intern program has introduced 645 Toronto students to 20 Jewish programs and organizations in the past five years, said Stephanie Krasman, assistant executive director for Hillel of Greater Toronto. The goal of the Campus Entrepreneurs Initiative, she said, is to create meaningful Jewish relationships with students on campus. Typically, an intern would approach Jewish students and invite them out for meaningful Jewish conversation usually over coffee. Pictured: from left, Jaclyn Parker, Anna Gol, Miriam Borden and Alyssa Moses, all former or current Hillel engagement interns. "There's an authentic Jewish element to this work," Krasman said. "Ultimately, it is about making an enduring commitment about Jewish life." Through the program, which has been established in three cities across North America, Hillel hires interns who work solely to engage Jewish students on campus and introduce them to Jewish programs and organizations, Krasman explained. Miriam Borden, a University of Toronto student, is one of eight "engagement" interns with Hillel of Greater Toronto. She described herself as a perfect example of the program's results. "I came from 12 years of Jewish day school and a year at yeshiva, and I do Jewish studies, so I figured I don't really need Hillel," she said, adding that there were all the "usual turnoffs," such as the perception of Hillel being too cliquey or uncool. She said she vowed never to set foot in Hillel and succeeded until one of the interns last year sought her out. She agreed to go for coffee with the intern and discussed her interests, which included slam poetry. After a few meetings, the intern suggested she plan her own slam-poetry storytelling event. "So here I was, involved in planning a Hillel event," Borden said, laughing. "I'm proof that it works." To find these Jewish students, the interns often use Facebook first to look for people they know and then look at their friends' networks, said Borden, who describes social media as the best outreach tool. To learn networking techniques, interns attend a weeklong Hillel training course in St. Louis, Mo. During the school year, they meet 20 times for two-hour leadership training and development seminars. "Last year this meant the interns were exposed to 66 hours of leadership development and 30 hours of Jewish learning," Krasman said. In total, she said she contacted about 30 people last semester, and estimated that 20 responded, and she "engaged" with 15. Most of these people were found on Facebook, although being a Jewish studies major means Borden can also find many people in class. "It's amazing when you really see how far you can really expand your network," she said. "It's like a rubber band where it could be smaller or bigger as you like it." The peer-to-peer approach is what makes the program such a success, Krasman said. "When students think back to their Jewish experience on campus, they'll think of the intern they had this amazing relationship with." Interns are instructed to be upfront about their mission. From the very first message, they let people know they are part of Hillel and are interested in speaking to them about ways to get involved in Jewish life. Borden described the approach as a bit of a delicate dance, given that she's approaching people who may not always identify as Jewish all the time, and she's asking to speak to them about their religion. The program is helping her prepare for her future career, which she hopes will be in Jewish education. "[The internship] brings me in touch with what's going on in the emergent Jewish community, the young people who are the next generation of people sending their kids to Jewish schools and camps," she said. While Borden said the program has been very beneficial to her, she won't participate again next year. Hillel limits interns to one school year in order to refresh their network, giving them a chance to reach a new group of Jewish students each year. However, she said she will leave the program with a large network of professional connections. "I know important names now – important people in Jewish community work. And they might know my name, which is pretty cool," she said. Back to Top Tags: {{Title}} [x] Add or, Select from existing Opening existing...

The A+D Museum in Los Angeles recently hosted a panel discussion for their new sci-fi inspired "SOUPERgreen" exhibit. The architects involved wanted to challenge conventional sustainable design trends by adopting an aggressively technological approach to LA's urban landscape. The featured designs were futuristic visions of how green design can radically transform a user's experience through city infrastructure, and nature itself. The result is a "souped up" vision for green development where technological innovation is embraced as an extension of the earth's natural cycles and human imagination.
The discussion provided fascinating insights into the architects' visions, their critiques of the current state of green design, and the future direction of sustainable architecture. The panelists included ARUP principal Erin McConahey, David Hertz of Studio of Environmental Architecture, Lance Williams of the USGBC, Wes Jones of Jones Partners, Doug Jackson of Doug Jackson Design Office, Randolph Ruiz of AAA Architecture, and Steven Purvis of APLSD design. Topics raised by the panelists and audience ranged from how to push beyond the limits of prescriptive green architecture (which lead to some heated discussion about the LEED rating system), to how the commodification of the housing market estranges homeowners from greater responsibility to their community's environment. The panelists were passionate, and wildly intelligent individuals whose experience on the frontier of green design made for an engaging, and thought provoking discussion.
Doug Jackson kicked off the night by explaining that the goal of the exhibit wasn't to create a "technicality-based architectural vision," but rather to bring the viewers into an imagined reality that expands conceptions of architectural function and aesthetic. David Hertz emphasized that hiding or discreetly integrating the green components of a building is a timid architectural stance, and that these materials should be embraced and even dictate the design itself. Erin McConahey added that the function of exposed building mechanics should be "immediately understood" by viewers. This exaggerated showcasing of green technology would serve as a catalyst in the process of encouraging the spread of sustainable design. Wes Jones likened the concept of the exhibit to a "souped-up hotrod," where existing components of urban architecture and infrastructure are repurposed to better serve the user and the surrounding environment.
The first design was Randolph Ruiz's 'Stead (Sustainable Technology Experimental Agricultural Dwelling) which featured a unique sun-shading façade, a photovoltaic array, as well as an enormous rooftop hydroponic farm. The six-acre industrial building (which actually exists in the San Fernando Valley) collects millions of gallons rainwater a year, which is then used to produce a variety of crops by urban farmers who live on-site. The adaptive re-use of an existing structure provides a unique alternative to the "vertical farming" trend that requires excessive amounts of new building materials.
Wes Jones' design was an innovative response to the daunting problem of Los Angeles' traffic and (sub)urban sprawl. By capitalizing on the use of vertical space above highways, his ELOV (extra-low occupancy vehicle) house is part sci-fi parking garage and part luxury living pad. The house's interaction with the highway is an important feature, and it harnesses much of its energy from passing cars as they roll over special electricity generating speed bumps. The ELOV car itself is half the width of a smart car, yet long enough to accommodate two people. The cars are meant to ease traffic congestion on Los Angeles highways, while addressing the lack of parking space in the city. Its display was presented as a massive comic strip, which had a futuristic, post-green revolution narrative, alongside detailed specs of the ELOV transportation/housing model.
Steven Purvis' Eat Me! is a food production powerhouse that incorporates an intensive kinetic aquaponics system, as well as ample living space for resident urban farmers. The three-story structure houses a mini-ecosystem, in which a chicken coop, aquaculture tank, and hydroponic crops work together to create a synergistic circuit that feeds the residents. Considering the rising price of oil and our petroleum-based food industry, this design is disconcertingly salient.
Aryan Omar's "I'll Huff and Puff and Blow Your House Down" is described as "the ugliest house on the prairie." The modular home is spiked with a series of VAWTs that harness the abundant wind energy of the desert and it has been sun-faded for an industrial look that evokes the image of a cowboy shoot-em up film set in the year 2150. The design might just catch on with the Joshua Tree crowd.
Doug Jackson's Uneasy Green building makes use of renewable technologies to realign its users with the rhythms of nature. The design is a parasitic addition to an existing skyscraper on Wilshire Boulevard, and is cantilevered on the building's roof. Its display panels are illustrated by an anime-style comic, where two doves narrate the building's features to a naïve cartoon girl. The building's sunscreen is made of flexible solar panels that react to sunlight and wind, creating a constant change of view and power production that takes direct cues from the weather.
To see all the designs in person, check out the A+D museum in Los Angeles before SOUPERgreen ends on the 14th of April.

Deadly hit and run accident in Mendon
Woman killed in Vermont hit-and-run
MENDON, Vt. —
Vermont State Police are investigating a fatal hit-and-run in Mendon, and investigators are looking for the driver of a dark sports utility vehicle who may be involved.
45-year-old Drury Morgan of Mendon was hit twice on Route 4 outside the Mountainview Lodge on Friday evening. Police say the driver of a second car stopped to help and called 911, but the driver of the first car fled.
Investigators say Morgan was an employee at the lodge and had stopped there to pick up her paycheck. She left on foot.
Police are looking for a dark-colored crossover SUV, similar to a Subaru Outback. They are also investigating the possibility that the victim, who was wearing dark clothing, was intoxicated.
Police do not plan to charge the second driver.

Custom DU: A Web-Based Business User-Driven Automated Underwriting System
Custom DU is an automated underwriting system that enables mortgage lenders to build their own business rules that facilitate assessing borrower eligibility for different mortgage products. Developed by Fannie Mae, Custom DU has been used since 2004 by several lenders to automate the underwriting of numerous mortgage products. Custom DU uses rule specification language techniques and a web-based, user-friendly interface for implementing business rules that represent business policy. By means of the user interface, lenders can also customize their underwriting findings reports, test the rules that they have defined, and publish changes to business rules on a real-time basis, all without any software modifications. The user interface enforces structure and consistency, enabling business users to focus on their underwriting guidelines when converting their business policy to rules. Once lenders have created their rules, loans are routed to the appropriate rule sets, and customized, but consistent, results are always returned to the lender. Using Custom DU, lenders can create different rule sets for their products and assign them to different channels of the business, allowing for centralized control of underwriting policies and procedures—even if lenders have decentralized operations.

Obsitnik plans to refund some campaign funds
WASHINGTON -- Republican congressional candidate Steve Obsitnik agreed Tuesday to refund some campaign contributions because he didn't have to use the funds to win a primary election to oppose Rep. Jim Himes in the Nov. 6 election.
Himes' campaign had accused Obsitnik of "padding" his fundraising totals by including contributions that were intended for his primary election campaign but that now must be used in a different manner because the Republican avoided a primary to become his party's nominee for Connecticut's 4th Congressional District.
Federal law limits campaign contributions in congressional elections to $2,500 for the primary and, if the candidate wins the nomination, $2,500 for the general election.
If the candidate wins the nomination without a primary fight, the winner has three choices: 1) refund the money; 2) get the donor's approval to put those funds toward the general election within the $2,500 limit; or 3) save the money for a future primary campaign.
In Obsitnik's case, he avoided a primary battle by winning the nomination at the state's May 18 Republican convention.
In his second-quarter campaign finance report filed last weekend with the Federal Election Commission, Obsitnik, a businessman from Westport, said he had raised $236,169 in the second quarter. On Tuesday, his campaign said it would refund $42,500.
Obsitnik campaign manager John Puskar said Tuesday that "up until last month we were planning for a primary. Now that we do not face one, we will obviously return the money we raised for it."
Justin Myers, campaign manager for Himes, had accused Obsitnik's camp of trying to "make it look as if his fundraising numbers are more spectacular than they are" by including primary contributions that must be returned to the contributor.
Himes, of Greenwich, raised $552,672 in the second quarter, from April 1 to June 30. Myers said the campaign did not solicit primary donations because the two-term congressman was not facing a primary opponent and won his party's nomination at the state's May 12 Democratic convention.
A more complete examination of the FEC filings shows that in the Republican race for the nomination for the open U.S. Senate seat of retiring Sen. Joe Lieberman, I-Conn., former U.S. Rep. Christopher Shays raised $530,812 in the second quarter.
Linda McMahon, his Republican primary opponent, a former World Wrestling Entertainment executive from Greenwich, raised $144,489 in the last quarter, but spent 12 times as much as Shays, using $8.2 million from her personal fortune to finance her campaign.
On the Democratic side, U.S. Rep Chris Murphy, a Cheshire resident, raised $1.2 million in second quarter contributions. His primary opponent, former Secretary of the State Susan Bysiewicz, raised $354,251 in the quarter.
In the crowded Aug. 14 primary for the open seat in the 5th Congressional District, three Democrats and four Republican contenders will face off for their parties' nominations.

HIRSI AND ANOTHER v PROVINCIAL GOVERNMENT OF THE PROVINCE OF THE WESTERN CAPE AND OTHERS
It is now more than two months since the xenophobic violence occurred, government has failed to remedy the situation and conditions of people at camps and in halls despite being fully aware of the worsening problem. Despite at least thirty official letters, six memoranda, many requests for information, over two hundred pleas for humanitarian and other assistance and extensive meetings with representatives of City and Provincial Government as well as many peaceful, non-violent protests and demonstrations, no meaningful change has taken place in the material conditions of people living in the camps and other safety sites; indeed the conditions have become worse. While everything possible was done to avoid legal action, there now remains no choice but to ask for a court order for minimum international norms and standards on living conditions to be met at the camps and halls.

I really apologize for all the zucchini recipes if you don't have an abundance like us gardener's do this time of year.
Perhaps your neighbor might drop some off and run away cackling.
I am considering it. Random bombing of zucchini's on my neighbors porches.They would totally know it's me though, I would be busted in a second since I am the only person who has an obvious garden in their yard.
There IS a national Drop Zucchini on Your Neighbors Doorstep day, but I can't find an exact date, reports vary as to when it is. But it should be secretive and random and you aren't supposed to get caught!
I say every day is Drop Zucchini on Your Neighbors Doorstep Day. Perhaps you can even attach a recipe like this one to it, wouldn't that be a lovely surprise!
This was going to be a loaf and it was a good one, but this is so thick that you could make it a cake as well.
Thick, fudgy, rich chocolate cake goodness. Or loaf, depending on how you slice it.
And there is no oil in it, just applesauce. You can't tell, other than the lack of greasy feeling when eating it, which is a very good thing.
Ingredients Needed:
1 1/2 cups of shredded zucchini
1 cup of flour
1/2 cup of cocoa
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/3 cup of applesauce
1/2 cup of white sugar
1/2 cup of packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
3/4- 1 cup of chocolate chips
In your mixer bowl combine the eggs, applesauce, vanillas and sugars.
Sift together your dry ingredients, then add to the egg mixture, combining well on low speed.
Remove the bowl from the mixer and fold in the chocolate chips.
Grease and flour a loaf pan, then pour the batter in.
Bake at 325 for 50-60 minutes, until a fork inserted comes out clean. Which can be hard to do with chocolate chips in the recipe, but it is doable.
It amazes me that this green vegetable can be hidden in such tasty baking!0

In 225 years, Presidential elections have changed a lot
January 10 marks 225 years since the conclusion of the United States of America's first Presidential election.
It was a very fortunate circumstance that George Washington was an obvious choice to serve as the first leader of the newly formed country.
There was still a lot of work left to do when Washington took office.
One of the problems that was easy to identify was how the Vice President was selected. In college, I was prone to argue that a Vice President was unnecessary and served little actual purpose. In its current state, the Vice Presidency is nothing more than a would-be ambassador, Senatorial tie-breaker and electoral litmus paper.
At the time of the first election in 1788-1789 – it actually began in December and ended Jan. 10, 1789 – Having a member of the executive branch working with Congress was more important and obviously, medical care and security at the time made having a direct succession plan in place more important. (Did you know that the current succession plan enumerates the order that would give up to 17 people the presidency in case of some really bad stuff happening to the first 16? Fortunately, we have never made it past Vice President.)
In the first election, each elector was granted two votes. Both votes carried equal weight for the Presidency. If you do the math, if everyone voted for Washington – which they did – and everyone chose the same second choice, the two men would actually have tied for President.
To prevent that, Alexander Hamilton devised a scheme to ensure that this did not happen. Because of Hamilton's diversion tactics, John Adams got about half of the votes Washington did and was chosen to serve as Vice President.
It was easier for Washington to build a consensus considering just over one percent of the nation's population voted. Only six of the ten states who cast electoral votes used any popular voting method.
New York had ratified the constitution and had a right to choose electors but that state legislature deadlocked and no electors were selected – and you thought legislative incompetence was something new.
In 225 years, Presidential elections have changed a lot. The amount of controversy, conniving and corner-cutting has not.

by Clara Parkes
I'm always intrigued by the juncture of dissimilar materials. Take water and oil, for example. Initially they refuse any contact, but if you put both in a jar and shake vigorously, they'll quickly amalgamate into a far more friendly blended material.
Or consider the circular knitting needle. Getting a perfect transition from solid needle to flexible nylon cord is the bane of every needle manufacturer's existence. Done poorly, your yarn will always stall on its way across. Done well, the transition is seamless.
Lori Versace's Sympatico seems like a simple enough cardigan, elegant and classic with minimal fuss. But I was immediately smitten with the prominent bands of seed stitch that quickly shift to stockinette. It's the knitter's version of "The Odd Couple," with stockinette playing a perfectly relaxed, stretchy Oscar while seed stitch is the ever-uptight, unyielding Felix. Not every yarn can transition gracefully from Oscar to Felix. The less willing ones will puff or pucker at the intersection of the two stitches. I picked three likely candidates and started swatching.
The original sweater is knit in Halcyon Yarn Victorian 2-Ply Wool, a hearty sportweight wool composed of two fairly springy, perpendicular plies. The yarn produces a strong, slightly lustrous fabric with sufficient bounce and structure to transition from fluid to firm without visible or structural awkwardness.
Blue Sky Alpaca Sportweight
I wondered how a slightly more fluid material would handle the Oscar and Felix challenge, so I picked a 100% baby alpaca for my first swatch. Blue Sky Alpacas 100% Alpaca Sportweight Yarn comes in 110 yd/100m (1.75 oz/50 g) skeins that retail for about $10. You'll need 15 skeins for the medium (chest circumference 44 ¾"/113.5 cm), putting the bill at an even $150.
The yarn's construction is similar to that of Victorian 2-Ply Wool. In both cases, the two perpendicularly twisted plies give a decidedly staccato overtone to the seed stitch while rendering cobblestoned stockinette. But the baby alpaca fibers in Alpaca Sportweight give a much more luxurious, slinky hand and a gentle halo that softens the overall effect.
Classic Elite Yarns Classic Silk
I suspect many people will be tempted to knit a summer version of this cardigan, which poses even more challenges since cotton—the top summer fiber—has no elasticity. In transitioning from tight to smooth, any extra cushion helps. Here's where blends can come in handy. I found Classic Silk, a three-ply from Classic Elite Yarns that blends 50% cotton with 30% silk and 20% nylon. The cotton serves as an underlying air-conditioning system while the silk adds a bare hint of luster and the nylon provides strength but, much more important, elasticity. Not tons, but just enough to help the yarn grip my hands and the stitches transition from tight to smooth and back again. Classic Silk's slubby finish makes the fabric more relaxed and suitable for everyday wear. It also helps conceal any irregularities in tension, although they'll still be visible—just not as much so. As an added bonus, the three-ply construction gives full stitches for stockinette and beautifully three-dimensional seed stitch. Classic Silk comes in 135 yd/123 m (1.75 oz/50 g) skeins that retail for $8 apiece, putting that same medium cardigan at about $97.
Rowan Felted Tweed
I liked the rustic texture of the Classic Silk so much that I decided to seek a wooly equivalent. The answer came in Rowan Felted Tweed, a relaxed two-ply yarn that blends 50% Merino wool with 25% alpaca and 25% viscose/rayon. In many ways, this yarn is the Oscar to Victorian 2-Ply Wool's Felix, a slouchy, fuzzy, huggable alternative. What you lose in stitch definition is made up for in overall come-hither coziness. The difference between Felted Tweed and Victorian 2-Ply is so striking that you could easily knit two sweaters—one from each yarn—and genuinely feel like you got two different sweaters out of the deal. Felted Tweed ships in 190 yd/174 m (1.75 oz/50 g) skeins, with a medium taking nine skeins and costing you about $108.
Those are just the beginning. Which yarn is calling you?

Author of the book 'Strange Son' (Riverhead Books), 2007. (www.strangeson.com)
Ms. Iverson earned a BFA at the University of Illinois in 1976, then went on to become an art director and writer for film and television; her entertainment career culminated with the winning of an Emmy Award in 1989. In 1995, soon after her son Dov was diagnosed with autism, Portia Iverson and her husband Jonathan Shestack co- founded the Cure Autism Now foundation (CAN). The foundation soon became a driving force in growing the field autism research and a leader in raising awareness and funding. Soon after founding CAN, they established the Autism Genetics Resource Exchange (AGRE), an autism gene bank that was the first to provide open access to the entire scientific community and soon grew to become the world's largest. She also established CAN's Scientific Review Council, an advisory council modeled after the NIMH Advisory Council, whose members were made up of scientists and clinicians most of whom were also parents of autistic children. The SRC was responsible for ensuring that the research which CAN funded was relevant and reflected the urgency of those affected by the disorder.

Themed weddings are on the rise. Many couples are choosing to showcasing their interests on their special day, whether it be the vintage 20's Great Gatsby, wine, or sports theme!
Samantha and Jonathan, avid Mets fans, decided they wanted a unique venue but did not want their wedding to be Mets or baseball themed. So they had their Interfaith Jewish wedding at Citi Field, home of The Mets, in Queens, NY.
The venue did an amazing job on its own of expressing their love of the game, so they kept everything else classy and romantic. Photography by H&H Photographers.
The couple met in college, where they both attended George Washington University in Washington, DC. Seven years later, on a weekend trip to DC, Jonathan popped the question at a romantic reflecting pool.
First GlanceNot many other couples have a wedding photo on the field of their favorite team!Citi Field has never-ending areas for creativity with photos. The wedding party has fun taking pictures in the Jackie Robinson rotunda.
In keeping with the classy and romatic feel, the couple had a soft color palette of pale pink and champagne / gold. The only baseball related items were the place cards, which looked like ticket stubs, and the favors – mason jars filled with crackerjacks.
Baseball Ticket Escort Cards
From to the Bride: "We had both our ceremony and reception at Citi Field in Flushing, NY where the New York Mets play. Our guests all entered the stadium through the Jackie Robinson rotunda. The ceremony was held in the DELTA club – my husband and I, the rabbi, priest, bridal party, and our parents were outside on a terrace under the chuppah. The doors were open and the guests were all seated indoors looking out at us and onto the baseball field. The reception was upstairs at the ACELA club – a large dining space with walls of windows on each side. We looked out at the field on one side and toward Manhattan on the other."
Ketubah Signing
The gorgeous chuppah was set up with the striking backdrop of the baseball field. Since Samantha is Jewish and Jonathan is Catholic, they had both a Rabbi and a Priest officiate the wedding ceremony. According to the bride, "the ceremony was beautiful. The rabbi and Priest took turns performing different traditional elements from each culture. We lit the unity candle and Jon broke the glass. We had my grandmother recite a Jewish reading, while my sister-in-law read a more traditional Catholic passage. We also signed an interfaith Ketubah. During the reception, we danced the horah followed by the tarantella. We felt as though we blended a nice mix of both of our cultures and traditions."Samantha's favorite wedding memory: "Standing under the chuppah looking out onto the filed at twilight as my husband and I said 'I do'."
Wedding Reception
The bouquets, centerpieces and wedding cake kept with the soft and classic color palette.After the traditional hora and dances, wedding guests let loose on the dance floor.
There's no doubt this wedding was a good time!Advice from the Bride: Have fun with it. Don't get too stressed out over the little things. Everything works out, and if anything goes wrong you won't even notice.

Hhmmm….I really didn't want to make it that way, so I re-drafted the block using a rectangular Connector Corner! Much easier! Oh, and Shop Girl is dedicated to all of those shop owners out there who do such a great job of stocking the best fabrics, and creating an inviting, inspiring, and creative place for us to gather.
