Letter To The President
My letter to the President..
Dear Mr. Obama,
My name is Kosal Khiev and i would very much like to tell you my story. I am not sure how to go about this, but i might as well start from the beginning. I was born in a refugee camp by the border of Thailand in 1980. My family was fleeing our war torn country and there i was born. In 1981 we came into the the United States of America and i was raised in E. Bishop street in Santa Ana, California in a low income housing projects. Their were 9 of us in this small 2 bedroom apartment. It was runned down and the neighborhood was very impoverish. So at a young age i was exposed to the seediness of life. Still my family did the best they could. But still traumatized from the horrors of war that had claimed over 1.7 million lives, they did not know how deal with a child that knew nothing of that period. In my eyes i was an American who was very expressive and curious and open but my family was very closed off emotionally to give me the love and attention that i needed. i do not blame them now; although growing up i did hold alot of resentment towards them. so as the inner workings of my family dynamic got worse, i also had gotten worse, making poor decisions after the next. At the age of 13 i was recruited into a gang and there my poor choices continued. At the age of 16 i was charged with attempted murder during a gang related incident. Tried as an adult for my first offense i ended up taking a plea bargain for 16 years 85% with 2 strikes. At the age of 18 after pleading guilty i was sent to prison and there i stayed til i was 31. It was a rough journey, but instead of being swallowed whole as i have seen what prison can do to so many others that were in my same perdicament, i on the other hand refused to be consumed. It was a long process but one day while placed in administrative segregation for over a year and a half for a mutual combat where no one was seriously injured, i came to make a very conscience decision in my life. That i was going to start changing my life and start taking back control of it. I ended up discovering spoken word and i must tell you that spoken word saved my life. It took this angry scared lost kid from the projects and gave me an outlet. it gave me purpose, reason, and a goal in mind. I started to work my way home. Home to my family. Home to my Mom and 3 brother's and 3 sister's and my 10 nephews and 5 nieces now 6. I also ended up working my way down to lower minimum security level prisons. With roughly 5 years left in to my prison sentence i was sent to california rehabilitation center in norco california and there i was involved with V.I.S.I.O.N.S Visibility In Support In Our Neighborhoods; an at risk youth program that was placed for the sole purpose to veer the direction of so many troubled youths who were heading down the very same path i had walked. For nearly 3 years i was a part of this program trying to reach as many kids as we can as more continued to come in. I also started to enroll in college courses at Coastline community college taking Sociology, English1A as well as American history at the time which i ended up passing with flying colors. But as all good things comes to an end my end came quickly. Due to over crowding i was transfer out of state with a year left upon parole. Why?, when i was doing so well. but no matter. i took the punches and continued to roll on. With two months left in my sentence i was brought back to California to finish the remainder of my 16 year long sentence. But there i learned and faced more hardships. I learned that i was not Cambodian-American But a Refugee and that my Permanent residence status was not so permanent. And that instead of being sent home after surviving the harsh conditions of prison life and culture, I was to be deported back to Cambodia, a country i have never set foot in. Everything i know and everything i was taught was from America. I had pledge allegiance to our great flag as a symbol of peace, justice, and equality, with the same beliefs as our forefathers once did. So in my mind i could not have comprehended what was happening to me. I felt so betrayed and so sad because all these years i have been surviving and living with the hope that one day i would be re united with my family again but that was not to be the case. I ended up spending another year on top of the 14 years i had just completed in the custody of I.C.E. Immigration Custody Enforcement. The idea that i had no Identity, no country was such a heartbreaking one.
i was placed in limbo with no idea where i will call home. Finally on March 17 2011 i was deported back to Cambodia at the age of 31. Back to what i say? i knew nothing of the culture, nor could i read, or write the language. I had no family that i knew of and to top it off i was deported with no I.D. no passport and no money. How was i to survive? Where was i to go? None of this made sense to me. I was discarded like a piece of trash that no longer held any value.
I had paid my debt to society and yet this added punishment was never included in my sentencing. If i had known i would have never taken my plea. But besides that point i was further taken away from my family. The same family that i have fought so desperately to rejoin after all those years of incarceration.
Mr. Obama, Mr. President please re-unite me and many more like me back to our families. Take a closer look at our histories and records. I made a mistake as a young angry 16 year old kid. I am not that kid any longer. You are a Father and you have a family. What if you were separated by those you love for a mistake you made as a child. What would you do? How would you feel? Please find it in your heart to be a real "Champion of Change" and re-unite me back with my family. I know you are a busy man and i am a very insignificant person on your radar, but i do hope and pray that somehow this letter written in a hole in the wall hotel room in Cambodia has somehow manage to come across your eyes. Thank you Sincerely ONELOVE, Kosal Khiev

Bulawayo-bound kombi in Musina head-on
AT least six Zimbabweans are believed to be among eight people who were killed when a Bulawayo-bound Toyota Quantum they were travelling in collided with a private vehicle along the N1 highway.
The quantum was travelling from Hillbrow in Johannesburg heading for Bulawayo while the smaller car was travelling to Makhadho town.
Limpopo police spokesperson, Lieutenant Colonel Moatshe Ngoepe said the accident occurred between Makhado and Musina towns near the Akunamathatha area on Sunday.
He said six people died on the spot while two others died upon admission at Musina Government Hospital.
Said Lieut Col Ngoepe; "These people were killed in a culpable homicide case which occurred along the N1 road next to Akunamathatha. "A private car collided head on with a Toyota Quantum kombi and three occupants of this private car died on the spot and three others died from the Quantum at about 6:55AM on 10 September. "The cause of this collision is still unknown but police investigations are underway to establish what happened."
He identified the deceased as Nkosiyapha Sibanda (36), Mlapho Lukas (32), Jonas Phiri (30), Zwelibanzi Maxwell Sibili (44), Terry Sibili (37) and Yemeni Petrus Sibili (44).
He said they were yet to establish the names of the other two people who later died at the hospital.
Lieut Col Ngoepe said several other passengers from the quantum were injured and are admitted at Musina hospital.
He urged motorists to always adhere to road traffic regulations to avoid the unnecessary loss of lives.
The N1 highway is one of the busiest roads which links South Africa with the rest of Sadc especially those from Malawi, DRC, Zambia and Zimbabwe.
The road has become a death trap with more than 30 people including Zimbabweans and Malawians dying in accidents in the last eight months.
A few weeks ago, four Malawians among them a toddler were killed and 16 others were injured when a bus they were travelling in was involved in accident, 8km outside Makhado town in Limpopo province.
The bus was travelling from Johannesburg to Malawi via Zimbabwe.

``Help!`` comes the cry from a public swimming pool.
``I`m tired. I can`t swim,`` a woman`s voice says.
A bystander dives into the pool. He makes a long shallow dive, surfacing about six feet short of the floundering swimmer.
``What`s the problem?`` Barnie Danzansky asks the woman.
``I`m tired. I don`t think I can`t make it back,`` she reponds.
Danzansky, 17, then explains that he`s going to try to help her. All she has to do is relax, follow his instructions and he will do the swimming for the two of them.
Moments later, the two are at the edge of the pool. The woman, an instructor pretending to need help, is safe and Danzansky has successfully performed in his advanced lifesaving class at Apollo Pool in western Hollywood.
The purpose of the class, approved by the American Red Cross, is to teach good swimmers how to help potential drowning victims without endangering their own lives, said Linda Harsin, one of the instructors.
While swimming laps in the cold night air, students are taught the motto of pool lifeguards: Throw, row and then go.
The rules of lifeguarding call for using all available equipment to save a struggling swimmer before going into the water yourself, said Monnie Levin, another instructor.
Lifesaving is a matter of life and death, they said.
That was evidenced last week when lifeguards on Hollywood beach revived a 65- year-old man found floating only a few feet offshore.

Although the fruit can be difficult to find and the timing of harvest is important, it can be a delicious way to add another nutritious and healthy food into your diet, and the number of health benefits it has is impressive. The main, well-studied benefits are listed below:
Bitter melon is one of the most potent fruits for managing diabetes mellitus for a few reasons. There are significant levels of charntin, peptides that resemble insulin, and alkaloids within the fleshy fruit of bitter melon. All of these components actively affect the levels of blood sugar, namely in reducing it. It also helps to prevent unpredictable spikes and drops in insulin levels by regulating the metabolism and use of sugar that the body has consumed in food. As a powerful hypoglycemic agent, bitter melon should not be used in conjunction with other medicines that lower blood sugar, because it can actually cause a dangerous lack of blood sugar in the body!

Why Not To Use iPad In Portrait Mode While Wearing Polarized Sunglasses, Answer Below!
When i was searching for the best answer for polarized sunglasses, i got some amazing and useful news that not to use your iPad in portrait mode when you wear Passive 3D Sunglasses. According to this news came straight from CultofMac, he said he is not kidding, and answer the question that when you are wearing polarized sunglasses the iPad's screen tuns into black wen using it in portrait mode – rendering it useless until you flip it over in landscape.
The source also pushed a video on the above topic (iPad & Polarized Sunglasses)
The interesting thing happened only with the Apple iPad, as other manufacturers have overcome it by setting the "extinction" of the screen to 45 degrees or putting in new compensating films. Screen expert Ray Soneira from DisplayMate explains it to ZDNet:
Using polarized sunglasses all iPads go black in Portrait mode. Other displays go black in Landscape mode. Much better is for the manufacturer to set the extinction at 45 degrees so the display looks good in both Portrait and Landscape modes. The Motorola Xoom behaves this way. Best of all, with compensating films this effect can go away almost entirely.
The iPhone 4 and Samsung Galaxy Tab have no extinction at any angle (just a small color shift). The effect should only apply to LCDs because they use polarized light internally. So OLEDs also should not show any such extinction effect.
While the iPad has a big, bright beautiful display that looks absolutely amazing under normal condition but, because it's glossy, can become reflective or washed out to the point of uselessness under the glare of direct sunlight. When you talk about do not use iPad in portrait mode when wearing Polarized sunglasses, here's something we don't know and that's the iPad has an in-plane switching (IPS), light-emmiting diode (LED), liquid crystal display (LCD) that produces crisp, clear colors under normal conditions. It's not laminated the same way the iPhone screen is, so it's even slightly more reflective when it catches rays.
But you can use portrait mode wearing passive 3D glasses (aka Polarized sunglasses) on your iPhone, because its display is constructed, polarized sunglasses can greatly reduce glare and increase visibility in both portrait and landscape mode!
Grab some information as simple explanation and here's a deeper explanation on why? and how to use your iPad in direct sunlight wearing Polarized sunglasses. Via iMore

Joint Lecturer in History of Art and Architecture and Assistant Curator in the Carnegie Museums of Pittsburgh
Area of Specialization
Constellation(s): Agency, Environment, Identity, Mobility/Exchange
Erin Peters holds a joint position as Lecturer in Curatorial Studies in History of Art and Architecture and as Assistant Curator of Science and Research in the Carnegie Museum of Natural History. CMNH holds the majority of the Carnegie Museums of Pittsburgh's objects from ancient Egypt, and Peters is currently curating an updated display of the Walton Hall of Ancient Egypt. As part of planning this display, she is Project Director for a National Endowment for the Humanities grant to design a digital interpretation of the museum's nearly 4000-year-old Egyptian funerary boat. This digital project builds on Peters's role in the Metropolitan Museum of Art's MediaLab and Department of Egyptian Art collaboration, "Coloring the temple of Dendur." The collaboration (re)colored the Augustan temple of Dendur using projection mapping technology to engage museum visitors by showing the temple in a way it had yet to be seen at the Met – in (virtual) color. The Met's project is an example of the kind of collaborative work that Peters believes will be integral to the future of museums. These projects are springboards for considering the past, present, and future of museums as she develops courses for the Museum Studies Minor in HAA.
Peters's focus stems from her research specialization in temples built in Egypt under the first Roman Emperor, Augustus, who annexed Egypt into the Roman Empire in 30 BCE. She has conducted four seasons of field research in Egypt, and is currently a member of the Egyptian Ministry of Antiquities and Italian Archaeological Mission of the University of Florence at el Sheikh Abada, ancient Antinoupolis in Egypt. Antinoupolis is the famous city built by the emperor Hadrian for his companion Antinous, who is said to have drown in the Nile in 130 CE and deified after his death. A major part of the Mission's project is to make a complete architectural and urban plan of the Hadrianic city, and Peters is investigating the sacred landscape, particularly how "Egyptian" and "Roman" elements function together in sacred space.

Saturday Morning's Forgotten Heroes: Cheerios Kid vs. a merman (1961)
An evil merman tries to claim Sue as his own for some reason. Heh, I think she's too young for him........
In 2012, the Kid & Sue returned again in an online ad campaign, but no new commercials came out of this. Hmmmm, don't you think it's time to bring them back to television?

Cereal mascots on the whole seem to be on the wane these days. Aside from Tony the Tiger (who's mainly milking the sports theme presently) and the Trix Rabbit, they only pop up on the Tube sporadically.

I barely remember the original Cheerios Kid ads. I know them mostly by my father telling me about them. I did experience the mid to late 80s revival commercials. Not surprisingly in the new ads, they started having Sue eat the cereal and take on the bad guys/menaces herself. The image of a young girl being shown as a helpless damsel who needs a big strong man (or boy in this case) to save her would never fly in this post Woman's Lib era of political correctness.

Goldstar: Oh, that is SO, so true. I've seen a couple of those 80's spots, and will put them up down the road.
Silverstar: Come to think of it, I think General Mills has even phased down Sonny (Cocoa Puffs), which I find amazing. The Monster Cereals now only come out on a limited basis for Halloween. Kellogg's still has Snap, Crackle, & Pop and the other mascots, but they're not shown on TV as much as they used to, and Post did away with theirs eons ago. All Post has left, of course, is the Flintstones (Fruity/Cocoa Pebbles), and the celebrities they can recruit for that still-running ad campaign that gets no TV time (Team Fruity/Team Cocoa). Like, Shaquille O'Neal is now on a cereal box, in addition to those Gold Bond ads that get played to death.

A very sad state of affairs, really. Some of the older, classic cereal commercials are available in ad compilation DVDs, but I'd love to see a comprehensive DVD series of restored, classic cereal ads with all the major companies represented, but I suppose that's not likely to ever happen. Maybe we could at least get a Monsters Cereal set, since GM has put a lot of effort into those cereals for the past 3 years or so, even going so far as to hire apparently big-name artists to create new box art for the series.

Matilda tags Art before Ibiza escapades

What does one do when one's boyfriend is about to embark on an epic "lads trip" to Ibiza?
When you're Matilda Rice, you make some "I have a girlfriend" name tags for him to wear on the holiday.
With the original Bachelor Art Green getting ready to go on a beer-sponsored trip to Amsterdam and Ibiza, Rice has been making sure the women of Europe know he's taken.
Green shared Rice's homemade name tag efforts on Instagram last night, saying "What would I do without her!"
Others joining Green on the holiday include Remix publisher Tim Phin and his friend, Carl Thompson.
The trip itinerary includes "the full Amsterdam experience", a Heineken brewery tour, a day boat cruise followed by an Ibiza Opening Party, and a poolside recovery session.
But Rice probably has little to worry about. Two days ago, Green shared a picture of his girlfriend to Instagram, asking "How did I get so lucky?"
"[I'm] going to miss my little buddy next week."

Nip slip (0:49)
Joey is going at it with Vince Vaughn in the front seat of a pick-up. Her leg cramps, she tries to adjust position and in the process her right nip appears over the edge of her lacy white tank top. Probably wouldn't have been visible if this wasn't shot during bright daylight.

Many stories from the Indian literature tell the tales of Lord Hanuman protecting devotees of Lord Rama and helping those who seek his either spiritually or otherwise. Swami Tulasidas has written these lines in respect of Lord Hanuman's great character, in praise of his powers and also devotion.
Hanuman Ji History In The Chalisa:
जय हनुमान ज्ञान गुन सागर।
जय कपीस तिहुँ लोक उजागर॥ १ ॥
jaya hanumāna gyāna guna sāgara।
jaya kapīsa tihu loka ujāgara॥ 1 ॥
O Hanuman, the ocean of knowledge and virtues, may you be victorious. O the chief amongst Vanaras famous across the three Lokas (Pātāla, Prithvi (earth) and Svarga), may you be victorious.[32][37][41]
Rambhadracharya comments that Hanuman is called ocean of knowledge by Tulsidas as the Valmiki Ramayana describes him as one who knows the three Vedas (Ṛgveda, Yajurveda, and Sāmaveda) and Vyākaraṇa.[41]

राम दूत अतुलित बल धामा।
अंजनि पुत्र पवनसुत नामा॥ २ ॥
rāma dūta atulita bala dhāmā।
anjani putra pavanasuta nāmā॥ 2 ॥
You are the trusted messenger of Rama and you are the abode of incomparable strength. You are known by the names of Anjaniputra (son of Anjana) and Pavanasuta (son of Vāyu).[31][32][42]
Hanuman is called Anjaniputra as he was born from the womb of Anjana, who was an Apsara with the name Puñjikasthalā and was born as a Vanara by the curse of Agastya.[42] Hanuman is called Pavanasuta since Vāyu carried the divine power of Shiva into Anjana's womb, and since the Valmiki Ramayana calls Hanuman as Vāyu's own son (mārutasyaurasaḥ putraḥ).[42][43]

mahāvīra vikrama bajarangī।
kumati nivāra sumati ke sangī॥ 3 ॥
You are the great hero, you are endowed with valour, your body is as strong as Indra's Vajra. You are the destroyer of vile intellect, and you are the companion of one whose intellect is pure.[31][32][44]
Rambhadracharya explains the word bajarangī to come from Sanskrit Vajrāṅgī and gives two meanings of the word bikrama based on the root kram in Sanskrit and usage of the verb form vikramasva in Valmiki Ramayana –[44]
Hanuman is endowed with special progression of sādhanā (penance).
Hanuman is endowed with the special action of going over or across, i.e. the crossing of the ocean
कंचन बरन बिराज सुबेसा।
कानन कुंडल कुंचित केसा॥ ४ ॥
kanchana barana birāja subesā।
kānana kundala kunchita kesā॥ 4 ॥
Your complexion is that of molten gold, and you are resplendent in your handsome form. You wear Kundalas (small earrings worn in old times by Hindus) in your ears and your hair is curly.[45]
Noting that in the Ramcharitmanas Tulsidas calls Hanuman as Subeṣa (one with a handsome form), Rambhadracharya comments that this verse describes the form of Hanuman when he took the appearance of a Brahmin, which happens three times in the Ramcharitmanas.[45]
हाथ बज्र औ ध्वजा बिराजै।
काँधे मूँज जनेऊ साजै॥ ५ ॥
hātha bajra au dhvajā birājai।
kādhe mūnja janeū sājai॥ 5 ॥
You have the Vajra and the flag in your hands, and the sacred-thread (Yajnopavita) made of the Munja grass adorns your shoulder.[46]
Rambhadracharya gives two meanings for the first half of the verse –[46]
The flag signifying the victory of Rama shines forth in Hanuman's Vajra-like powerful hand
The Vajra-like powerful Gadā and the victory flag of Rama shine forth in Hanuman's hands
He also gives the variant reading chhājai (छाजै) instead of sājai (साजै) in the second half.[46]
शंकर सुवन केसरी नंदन।
तेज प्रताप महा जग बंदन॥ ६ ॥
shankara suvana kesarī nandana।
teja pratāpa mahā jaga bandana॥ 6 ॥
O son of Shiva (or son of Vāyu carrying the power of Shiva), the delighter of Kesari, your aura and majesty is great and is revered by the whole world.[31][32][43]
Rao and Mehta explain the first half as Hanuman is the son of Kesari and Shiva.[31][32] Rambhadracharya gives two variant readings for the first part–[43]
shankara svayam which is explained as Hanuman is Shiva himself, as Vāyu carried the power of Shiva himself in Anjana's womb from which Hanuman was born. Tulsidas mentions Hanuman as an Avatar of Shiva in the Vinayapatrika.
shankara suvana which is explained as Hanuman is the son of Vāyu, who is one of the eight manifestations of Shiva as per Kalidasa. An alternate explanation is that the word suvana is used in the sense of Aṃśa as per the Puranic narrative of Vāyu carrying Shivas power to Anjana's womb.
Rambhadracharya explains kesarī nandana as the Kṣetraja son of Kesari, which is one of the twelve kinds of offspring recognized in the ancient Hindu law.[43]
विद्यावान गुनी अति चातुर।
राम काज करिबे को आतुर॥ ७ ॥
vidyāvāna gunī ati chātura।
rāma kāja karibe ko ātura॥ 7 ॥
You are the praiseworthy abode of the eighteen types of Vidyā (knowledge), all virtues reside in you, and you are exceedingly clever.[47] You are ever eager to perform tasks for Rama.[47]
प्रभु चरित्र सुनिबे को रसिया।
राम लखन सीता मन बसिया॥ ८ ॥
prabhu charitra sunibe ko rasiyā।
rāma lakhana sītā mana basiyā॥ 8 ॥
You delight in listening to the acts of Rama (Ramayana).[48] Rama, Lakshmana and Sita reside in your mind.[48] Alternately, you reside in the minds of Rama, Lakshmana and Sita [owing to their affection towards you].[48]
सूक्ष्म रूप धरी सियहिं दिखावा।
बिकट रूप धरि लंक जरावा॥ ९ ॥
sūkshma rūpa dhari siyahi dikhāvā।
bikata rūpa dhari lanka jarāvā॥ 9 ॥
You assumed an extremely minute form and appeared to Sita in the Ashok Vatika. You assumed a very large and scary form and burnt the city of Lanka.[49]
भीम रूप धरि असुर सँहारे।
रामचन्द्र के काज सँवारे॥ १० ॥
bhīma rūpa dhari asura sahāre।
rāmachandra ke kāja savāre॥ 10 ॥
You assumed a frightening form and destroyed the demons [in the army of Ravana]. You carried out all the tasks of Rama.[50]
Rambhadracharya comments that the word bhīma is an allusion to the event in the Mahabharata when Hanuman showed the same frightening form to Bhima.[50]
Hanuman fetches the mountain bearing the herb Sanjivini
लाय सँजीवनि लखन जियाए।
श्रीरघुबीर हरषि उर लाए॥ ११ ॥
lāya sajīvani lakhana jiyāe।
shrī raghubīra harashi ura lāe॥ 11 ॥
You brought the Sanjivini, the life saving herb from Dronagiri in Himalayas, and revitalized Lakshman. Out of elation, Rama embraced you.[31][51][52]
रघुपति कीन्हीं बहुत बड़ाई।
तुम मम प्रिय भरतहि सम भाई॥ १२ ॥
raghupati kīnhī bahut barāī।
tuma mama priya bharatahi sama bhāī॥ 12 ॥
Rama, the chief among Raghu's descendants, praised you profusely saying "You are dear to me like my brother Bharata.[31][51][53]
Rambhadracharya associates the term bhāī with bharata.[53] In contrast, Rao and Mehta interpret the second half as Rama said that you (Hanuman) are my dear brother, like Bharata.[31][51]
सहस बदन तुम्हरो जस गावैं।
अस कहि श्रीपति कंठ लगावैं॥ १३ ॥
sahasa badana tumharo jasa gāvai।
asa kahi shrīpati kantha lagāvai॥ 13 ॥
Rao and Mehta's translation – Rama also added that a thousand people will praise Hanuman's glory and embraced him again.[31][51]
Rambhadracharya interprets sahasa badana as the thousand-hooded serpent Shesha.[54] His translation is The serpent Shesha, who has a thousand mouths, sings and will sing your glory, saying thus Rama embraces Hanuman again and again.[54]
सनकादिक ब्रह्मादि मुनीसा।
नारद सारद सहित अहीसा॥ १४ ॥
जम कुबेर दिक्पाल जहाँ ते।
कबी कोबिद कहि सकैं कहाँ ते॥ १५ ॥
sanakādika brahmādi munīsā।
nārada sārada sahita ahīsā॥ 14 ॥
jama kubera dikpāla jahā te।
kabi kobida kahi sakai kahā te॥ 15 ॥
Rao and Mehta translate the two verses as Saints like Sanka, Bramha, Munisa, Narad, Sarad, Sahit and Ahisa have blessed Hanuman; Yama (God of death), Kubera (God of wealth), Dikpala (Gods of eight directions), Kavis (poets), Kovidas (folk singers) cannot describe Hanuman's reputation.[31][51] Rambhadracharya associates the verb gāvai in verse 13 with verse 14 and first half of verse 15 also, interprets ahīsā as standing for both Shiva and Vishnu, and kovida as one who knows Vedas.[30] His translation reads The celibate Rishis like Sanaka, the Devatas like Brahma, Narada the best among Munis (sages), Saraswati with Shiva and Vishnu, the eight Dikpalas including Yama and Kubera – all these will sing your glory. To what extent can the mortal poets and scholars of Vedas speak about your infinite glory?[30]
तुम उपकार सुग्रीवहिं कीन्हा।
राम मिलाय राजपद दीन्हा॥ १६ ॥
tuma upakāra sugrīvahi kīnhā।
rāam milāya rājapada dīnhā॥ 16 ॥
You did Sugriva a great favour by making him meet Rama and bestowing on him the kingdom of Kishkindha.[31][51][55]
तुम्हरो मन्त्र बिभीषन माना।
लंकेश्वर भए सब जग जाना॥ १७ ॥
tumharo mantra bibhīshana mānā।
lankeshvara bhae saba jaga jānā॥ 17 ॥
Your Mantra was accepted by Vibishana, as a result of which he became the king of Lanka.[31][51][56] The whole world knows this.[56]
जुग सहस्र जोजन पर भानू।
लील्यो ताहि मधुर फल जानू॥ १८ ॥
juga sahasra jojana para bhānū।
līlyo tāhi madhura phala jānū॥ 18 ॥
The Surya, sun situated {1 Yug = 12,000 years, 1 Sahastra = 1000, 1 Yojan = 8 Miles, (Yug x Sahastra x Yojan) = 12,000x1,000x8 miles = 96,000,000 miles (1 mile = 1.6 km) 96,000,000 miles = 96,000,000x1.6 km = 153,600,000 km} 153,600,000 km from the earth, was swforbided by you after you assumed him to be a sweet fruit.[57]
Though Hanuman does not end up swforbiding the Surya in Valmiki's Ramayana, the narrative is referred to by Tulsidas in the Vinayapatrika.[57] Rambhadracharya ascribes the differences in the narration by Valmiki and Tulsidas to the difference in the Kalpas.[57]
प्रभु मुद्रिका मेलि मुख माहीं।
जलधि लाँघि गये अचरज नाहीं॥ १९ ॥
prabhu mudrikā meli mukha māhī।
jaladhi lāghi gaye acharaja nāhī॥ 19 ॥
O Lord, placing the ring given by Rama in your mouth, you leaped across the ocean – there is no wonder here.[58]
दुर्गम काज जगत के जेते ।
सुगम अनुग्रह तुम्हरे तेते॥ २० ॥
durgama kāja jagata ke jete।
sugama anugraha tumhare tete॥ 20 ॥
All the unattainable tasks in the world become easily attainable with your grace.[33]
राम दुआरे तुम रखवारे।
होत न आज्ञा बिनु पैसारे॥ २१ ॥
rāma duāre tuma rakhavāre।
hota na āgyā binu paisāre॥ 21 ॥
You are the doorkeeper and protector of the door to Rama's court. Without your command, nobody can enter the abode of Rama.[59]
Rambhadracharya explains paisāre as the Tadbhava form of Sanskrit padasāra.[59]
Depiction of Bharata (Lord Rama's Youngest Brother) meeting Lord Rama watched by Hanuman, Sita and Lakshman.... From Left – Hanuman, Bharata, Lord Rama, Sita and Lakshman
सब सुख लहै तुम्हारी शरना।
तुम रक्षक काहू को डरना॥ २२ ॥
saba sukha lahai tumhārī saranā।
tuma rakshaka kāhū ko daranā॥ 22 ॥
Once in your refuge, a Sādhaka obtains all the pleasures. You are the protector, and there is nothing to be afraid of.[60]
आपन तेज सम्हारो आपै।
तीनौं लोक हाँक ते काँपे॥ २३ ॥
āpana teja samhāro āpai।
tinau loka hāka te kāpai॥ 23 ॥
When you roar, after remembering your powers, the three worlds tremble with fear.[61]
Rambhadracharya comments that this verse refers to the narrative of Jambavan reminding Hanuman of his powers in the Kishkindha Kanda of Ramayana.[61]
भूत पिशाच निकट नहिं आवै।
महाबीर जब नाम सुनावै॥ २४ ॥
bhūta pishācha nikata nahi āvai।
mahābīra jaba nāma sunāvai॥ 24 ॥
Evil spirits (bhūta) and meat-eating ghosts (pishācha) do not come near those chant the Mahāvira name of yours.[62]
नासै रोग हरै सब पीरा।
जपत निरंतर हनुमत बीरा॥ २५ ॥
nāsai roga harai saba pīrā।
japata nirantara hanumata bīrā॥ 25 ॥
The brave Hanuman, when invoked incessantly by the means of Japa, destroys all ailments and removes all sufferings.[63]
संकट तें हनुमान छुड़ावै।
मन क्रम बचन ध्यान जो लावै॥ २६ ॥
sankata te hanumāna chhudāvai।
mana krama bachana dhyāna jo lāvai॥ 26 ॥
Hanuman extricates those from all adversities who remember him (or contemplate upon him) in their heart, by their actions and by their words.[31][64][65]
सब पर राम तपस्वी राजा।
तिन के काज सकल तुम साजा॥ २७ ॥
saba para rāma tapasvī rājā।
tina ke kāja sakala tuma sājā॥ 27 ॥
Rama is the supreme God and a king with Tapas, and yet you executed all his tasks.[31][64][66]
Rambhadracharya explains that the word saba para is from Sanskrit sarvapara, meaning supreme. A variant reading of this verse is sabapara rāma rāya siratājā, on which Rambhadracharya's commentary says Rama is the supreme God and king of kings.[66]
और मनोरथ जो कोई लावै।
सोहि अमित जीवन फल पावै॥ २८ ॥
aura manoratha jo koī lāvai।
Sohi amita jīvana phala pāvai॥ 28 ॥
And whoever comes to you with any wish, that wish is fulfilled beyond limits (literally, "they obtain the unlimited fruit of the wish") in this very birth.[31][64][67]
A variant reading is soī amita jīvana phala pāvai.[67]
चारों जुग परताप तुम्हारा।
है परसिद्ध जगत उजियारा॥ २९ ॥
chāro juga para tāpa tumhārā।
hai parasiddha jagata ujiyyārā॥ 29 ॥
Your glory is famous in all the four Yugas, and illuminates the whole world.[31][68][69]
Rambharacharya adds that this verse refers to the immortality of Hanuman, as four cycles of the four Yugas are believed to have passed since the Avatar of Rama.
साधु संत के तुम रखवारे।
असुर निकंदन राम दुलारे॥ ३० ॥
sādhu santa ke tuma rakhavāre।
asura nikandana rāma dulāre॥ 30 ॥
You are the protector of Sadhus (mendicants) and Sants (saints). You are the destroyer of demons and dear as a son to Rama.[70]
Rambhadracharya interprets the word sādhu as Bhaktas who are performing sādhanā and the word santa as Bhaktas whose sādhanā is complete.[70]
अष्ट सिद्धि नौ निधि के दाता।
अस बर दीन्ह जानकी माता॥ ३१ ॥
ashta siddhi nau nidhi ke dātā।
asa bara dīnha jānakī mātā॥ 31 ॥
You are the bestower the eight Siddhis (supernatural powers named Aṇimā, Garimā, Mahimā, Laghimā, Prāpti, Prākāmya, Īśitva, and Vaśitva) and the nine Nidhis (divine treasures named Mahāpadma, Padma, Śaṅkha, Makara, Kacchapa, Mukunda, Kunda, Nīla and Kharva). Mother Sita, the daughter of Janaka, has granted you this boon.[71]
राम रसायन तुम्हरे पासा।
सदा रहो रघुपति के दासा॥ ३२ ॥
rāma rasāyana tumhare pāsā।
sāda raho raghupati ke dāsā॥ 32 ॥
You have the treasure of Rama's Bhakti (rāma rasāyana) with you. You are, respectfully, the servant of Raghupati (Shri Raam).[72]
Rambhadracharya explains the term rāma rasāyana in two ways –[72]
The treasure of love (Bhakti) towards Rama, with rasa meaning devotion and āyana meaning repository
The abode of devotion to Rama (i.e. Ramāyana), with rasa meaning devotion and āyana meaning a house or edifice
The second half has variant readings including sadā raho and sādara tuma instead of sādara ho[73]
तुम्हरे भजन राम को पावै।
जनम जनम के दुख बिसरावै॥ ३३ ॥
tumhare bhajana rāma ko pāvai।
janama janama ke dukha bisarāvai॥ 33 ॥
Singing of you (Hanuman), a Bhakta obtains Rama and forgets the adversities and afflictions of many births.[74]
Rambhadracharya explains using verses from Ramcharitmanas and Kavitavali, that as per Tulsidas Jñāna and Vairāgya are the two means to obtain Rama, and Hanuman is both Jñāna and Vairāgya incarnate.[74] Hence serving Hanuman leads to Rama.[74]
अंत काल रघुबर पुर जाई।
जहाँ जन्म हरिभक्त कहाई॥ ३४ ॥
anta kāla raghubara pura jāī।
jahā janma hari bhakta kahāī॥ 34 ॥
As a result of devotion to you, a Bhakta goes to Sāketa Loka (raghubara pura) at the time of their end (physical death). Once the Bhakta reaches Sāketa, wherever they take birth, they are known as the Bhaktas of Hari.[75]
Rambhadracharya interprets this verse to mean that the Bhakta, even discards the blissful Moksha to take birth again in this world as a devotee of Hari, as Tulsidas says in the fourth book of Ramcharitmanas.[75]
और देवता चित्त न धरई।
हनुमत सेइ सर्व सुख करई॥ ३५ ॥
aura devatā chitta na dharaī।
hanumata sei sarba sukha karaī॥ 35 ॥
Even one who does not contemplate on any other Devatas in their mind and only serves Hanuman, achieves all favourable bliss in this world and the next.[76]
Rambhadracharya explains that as per Bhagavad Gita, only Devatas can grant the desired results of actions, but even if one serves Hanuman and no other Devata, they obtain all worldly and other-worldly bliss.[76]
संकट कटै मिटै सब पीरा।
जो सुमिरै हनुमत बलबीरा॥ ३६ ॥
sankata katai mitai saba pīrā।
jo sumirai hanumata balabīrā॥ 36 ॥
Whoever remembers the brave and mighty Hanuman gets free of all adversities and relief from all pains.[31][64][77]
जय जय जय हनुमान गोसाईं।
कृपा करहु गुरुदेव की नाईं॥ ३७ ॥
jaya jaya jaya hanumāna gusāī।
kripā karahu gurudeva kī nāī॥ 37 ॥
O Hanuman, the master of senses, may you be victorious, may you be victorious, may you be victorious. May you shower your grace lovingly, as a Guru does, and reveal to me the knowledge of devotion to Rama.[31][34][64]
Rambhadracharya interprets the three utterances of jaya to mean that Hanuman is sat-cit-ānanda.[34]
जो शत बार पाठ कर कोई।
छूटहि बंदि महा सुख होई॥ ३८ ॥
jo shata bāra pātha kara koī।
chhūtahi bandi mahā sukha hoī॥ 38 ॥
One who recites Hanuman Chalisa a hundred times (or for hundred days) is released from bondage and obtains great bliss".[31][78][79]
Rambhadracharya interprets shata as standing for the number 108 and bāra (Sanskrit vāra) to mean a day.[79] He explains the words to mean that one who recites the Hanuman Chalisa 108 times daily for 108 days will be released from the bondages of this world and the next, and will obtain great bliss.[79]
जो यह पढ़ै हनुमान चालीसा।
होय सिद्धि साखी गौरीसा॥ ३९ ॥
jo yaha parhai hanumāna chālīsā।
hoya siddha sākhī gaurīsā॥ 39 ॥
One who reads this Hanuman Chalisa obtains Siddhi (accomplishment or liberation). Shiva himself bears witness to this statement.[80]
Rao and Mehta explain this as "One who reads Hanuman Chalisa attains siddhis of God Shiva and becomes his friend."[31][78]
तुलसीदास सदा हरि चेरा।
कीजै नाथ हृदय महँ डेरा॥ ४० ॥
tulasīdāsa sadā hari cherā।
kījai nātha hridaya mama derā॥ 40 ॥
Tulsidas is always a devotee of Hari. O Lord, make my heart your abode.[31][78]
Rambhadracharya offers three explanations for this verse in accordance with three different Anvayas (connection of words)[35] -
O Hanuman, the lord of Vanaras, you are always in the service of Hari (Rama), may you reside in the heart of Tulsidas.
Tulsidas says O Lord Hanuman, may you ever reside in the heart of the devotees who serve Hari (Rama).
Tulsidas is ever the servant of Hari (Hanuman, as Hari also means Vanara in Sanskrit), may you reside in my heart.
Concluding Doha[edit]
पवनतनय संकट हरन मंगल मूरति रूप।
राम लखन सीता सहित हृदय बसहु सुर भूप॥
pavantanaya sankata harana mangala mūrati rūpa।
rāma lakhan sītā sahita hridaya basahu sura bhūpa॥
O Son of Vāyu, remover of adversities, one with an auspicious form, and the chief among all Devas, may you reside in our hearts along with Rama, Lakshman and Sita.[31][36][78]
Rambhadracharya explains that Tulsidas addresses Hanuman with four adjectives in this final verse to indicate that Hanuman helps cleanse the mind (Manas), intellect (Buddhi), heart (Citta) and ego (Ahaṅkāra), and by asking him to reside in the heart of the devotee, Tulsidas ends the work by implying that the refuge of Hanuman is the supreme pursuit.

Gotnews.com can conclusively prove that the photo of Prince Andrew with Virginia Roberts, the alleged underaged prostitute is a forgery.
The photo [below] is said to date from 2001 when Roberts was underaged and in London was provided to the Daily Mail by Roberts in 2011.
We consulted with experts in photography and analyses performed using the computer program, Image-Pro Plus by MediaCybernetics.
The key to investigation is the size of the pixels. You would expect a photograph to have the same pixelation throughout. And yet the sections with Andrew and Virginia have different sized pixels that become clear when you zoom in.
Our analyst writes:
Virginia's and Andrew's facial photos were taken using different cameras, different shutters speeds; therefore; at different times. Pixels in the photo of the brunette and Andrew are a better match, yet not exact.
It is 99.8% likely that the photo of Andrew and the brunette [Jeffrey Epstein assistant Ghislaine Maxwell] were taken by the same camera, with the same shutter speed, at the same time.
However, the photo shadows, color gradients, and pixel sizes of Virginia Roberts indicate with 99.9% certainty that her photo could not have been taken with the same camera, shutter speed, or at the same time as the photos of Andrew and the brunette [Maxwell]. Higher resolution settings were used to photograph Andrew and the brunette [Maxwell], and neither match the lower quality resolution settings of Virginia's photo.
Our source next turned to the camera itself.
I have indicated areas on each photo (circles) which can be zoomed to view the photographer as well as a side-mount flash on the camera. Polaroid did make a sidemount flash model instant camera in the late 1990s. The photographer in this shot is not facing any of the subjects in this photoshopped collage, and this would not have been a digitally produced photo.
Our source "performed photo analysis of 4 different [versions of] the photo from 4 different web sources, all with the same outcome." The source even "printed/scanned one and analyzed it."
The photo was first presented in 2011 to the Daily Mail by Roberts, according to the Daily Beast.
Roberts received a "big cash payment" from the Mail. As she received money for submitting the fake photo, Roberts may have committed fraud.
Roberts's story of rape had been initially rejected from the National Enquirer in 2011.
Roberts is said to be at work on her "tell all" memoirs, according to the DailyMail.com.
Roberts's father admitted that his daughter hadn't met with the Queen as she had previously claimed.
Gotnews.com has also examined some of other glaring problems with the Prince Andrew photo.
Full disclosure: Alan Dershowitz, who is also falsely accused of raping Virginia Roberts, was an employer of Gotnews.com editor-in-chief Charles C. Johnson. As always, Johnson writes under his own capacity and without any involvement of anyone else.

Fish 'n Fins - Dive Sites - Blue Corner
(deutsche Beschreibung ganz unten)
Location: southwest reefs of the Palau Islands. Blue Corner is at the northwest end of Ngemelis Island.
Distance from Koror: 25 miles (46 km). 50 to 70 minutes by speedboat.
Visibility: Incoming tide: 90+ feet (30+ meters). Outgoing tide: 45 to 60 feet (15 to 20 meters). Note: some guides believe best visibility is brought in by an incoming tide with a so-called "outgoing current", a current that moves from Blue Holes to the Corner.
Level of Diving Experience: Strong current - Experienced divers only. Moderate current - Intermediate divers. No current - All divers.
Important Notice: the currents at Blue Corner can change within seconds. Your dive guide is the best person to check with regarding the required level of experience.
Diving Depth Summary:
0 to 30 feet (0 to 10 meters): the eastern side of the reef wall starts at 25feet (8 meters) and is covered with soft corals
30 to 60 feet (10 to 20 meters): the top of the wall at the plateau, the best depth for seeing the action on Blue Corner
60 to 90 feet (20 to 30 meters): the eastern reef wall and cavern at 75 feet (25 meters)
80 to 90 feet (25 to 30 meters): large variety of smaller gorgonian and lush formation of purple soft corals.
Currents: the tides and currents around the world depend on the phase and position of the moon. Tides are at their highest and lowest points during full and new moon. In Palau the maximum tolerance between the tides is roughly 7 feet (2 meters). Two major factors create and govern the currents around the dive sites: 1. The Equatorial/Counter Equatorial currents control the flow of water across the western pacific that governs the tidal action that affects Palau. 2. The lagoon: The island complex is surrounded by barrier reef. There are only a few channels that allow for the flow of water in and out of the lagoon during the tidal changes. For nearly 6 hours the outgoing tide will flow continuously out of the lagoon taking sediment and debris out to sea. When the moon completes a quarter orbit around the earth the tidal flow will shift. For the next 6 hours incoming tidal water will rush into the lagoon bringing in clear water from the open ocean. The tides move forward approximately one hour everyday, a 12:00PM high tide will be a 1:00PM high tide the next day. During the outgoing tide visibility (as a rule) in the lagoon will decrease, due to the fact that the outgoing tide carries away sand and particles to the open sea through the channels in the barrier reef. During the incoming tide, clear water coming from the open ocean brings increased visibility along the reefs, channels and inside the lagoon. The current that runs along the western reefs of Palau turns at Blue Corner, hits the reef wall, flowing up and over the plateau bringing with it an abundance of clean water, plankton and algae. This phenomenon occasionally creates very strong currents. As a rule of thumb the incoming tide will flow from south to north and the outgoing tide from north to south. The current at Blue Corner is stronger, shorter and hardest to predict at the half-moon phase of the lunar month.
General Information: most dive magazines rate the Blue Corner as the single best dive in the world. The formation of the reef, sheer walls and the large number of schooling fish make it a truly unique experience. There are three mooring buoys located along the reef. The eastern buoy, the central buoy and the western buoy. You can dive this site from two different directions, depending on the current. Generally, divers will begin the dive while their boat is moored to either the eastern or western buoy. The central buoy is rarely used to start the dive.
Reef Formation: a vertical reef wall that runs south to north parallel to Ngemelis Island. The reef then turns toward the open sea and stretches out from East to West, creating a plateau at 45 to 60 feet (15 to 20 meters). Past Blue Corner the reef wall curves again and runs south to north. The wall drops from 30 to 1000 feet (10 to 330meters) or more and is covered with large variety of giant Gorgonian sea fans, hard corals and soft corals. The Eastern part of the plateau consists of large patches of sand. Massive coral heads and rocks are scattered throughout the sandy patches. The flat coral plateau on the west drops gently from 45 to 60 feet (15 to 20 meters) with colonies of cabbage corals as well as many varieties of hard and soft corals.
Marine life: Blue Corner is home to some of the largest schools of fish in the world, here you can see just about every kind of fish found in the tropical ocean. Sharks, Wahoo, Tuna, Hawks Bill and Green turtles, Eagle Rays, Giant Groupers, and Barracuda, to name but a few species. These denizens come in very close, in fact, closer than you can imagine. You will experience encounters here that you will provide plenty of thrills and excitement as well as great stories to tellfriends. Blue Corner is said to offer the utmost photo opportunities in the world. According to the direction of the current, the pelagic fish will switch from one side of the corner to the other. Permanent residents at Blue corner are large schools of Jacks, Snappers, Chevron barracudas (usually on top of the plateau), Redtooth Triggerfish, Pyramid Butterflyfish, profuse numbers of small tropical fish and Palaus famous Napoleon Wrasse. Occasionally divers spot Great Hammerheads, Whale Sharks, Mantas, Marlin, Sailfish and whales.
Diving: eastern buoy: The dive guides usually refer to this as the incoming dive. The dive starts at canyon /cut that leads westward along a reef wall. Look for sleeping White Tip sharks on the sandy bottom of the eastern cut. Swim along the lush soft coral wall for approximately 300 feet (100 meters), you will come to a cavern with giant Gorgonian sea fans, look up, you will most likely see many gray reef sharks patrolling the reef wall along with big schools of Black Snappers and Big Eyed Jacks. If the current is mild it will carry you further along the wall towards the corner. If you encounter a strong current, let it lift you to the ledge, at the top, using your reef hook hook-onto one of the rocks or dead corals. Now you are free to face the current and watch the parade of sharks and fish. You can move sideways (westward) by changing positions along the ledge all the way to the corner. When your bottom time is over, unhook yourself and drift along with the current, it will take you to the top of the plateau. On the plateau you will find more swirling schools of barracuda, snappers, wrasses, triggerfish, etc. The current will diminish as you drift westward. While you are finishing your dive, with a safety stop, you will have a panoramic view of the action on the Corner and the plateau. Center buoy: The center buoy is located above the cavern. It is not recommended to start the dive here during strong currents, as you will find it difficult to reach the top of the plateau. Western buoy: A dive that begins here is called the Out-Going dive. The wall starts at the Blue Hole and curves around south to the Blue Corner. The formation of the reef wall on this side is steeper and plunges beyond a diving depth into the sea. Keep a watch on your depth gauge, it is easy to drift down as you are caught up in the spectacle of action along the reef and out to sea. Look for large schools of yellow and white Pyramid Butterflyfish, Moorish Idols and Redtooth Triggerfish. The top of the reef is 10 to15 feet (3 to 5 meters). As you get closer to the Blue Corner the reef wall begins to gradually slope outward to form the edge of the Corner. On the outgoing tide, if the dive started at the Blue Hole, you will have to kick against the current until you reach the center buoy. From that point the current will carry you along the reef wall to Blue Corner. As you reach the edge of the reef, have your reef hook ready to hook-on. Once secure and settled, relax and watch the parade of sharks and schooling fish. Special features: The reef hook is a truly a Palauan invention. The hook was designed to keep your hands free and to prevent damage to the reef, while facing strong currents. On one end of the hook is a large metal hook; on the other end is a safety clip that attaches to your BCD, with a 6-foot (2 meter) length of cord. If you are a photographer a reef hook is a must! It is highly recommended you use the reef hook any time you want to stop and the current is blowing you off your focus. reef hooks are available at all dive shops in Palau. The Safety Sausage is an inflatable red cylinder of flexible plastic cloth that is used to mark your position on the surface. They come in many sizes and styles. The sausage is a very effective and inexpensive safety device. Use of the sausage is advised when surfacing in high boat traffic areas, when separated from your dive group and during rough weather. The Safety Sausage is available at dive all shops in Palau and around the world.
Fascinating Facts: Most people believe Blue Corner acquired its name from the deep beautiful blue open ocean as seen at the Corner. The truth is, however, more interesting. Years ago the dive guides, though very familiar with the dive site at the Blue Holes, would exit the holes and continue the dive off to the right. One day Francis Toribiong (Known as Mr. Dive Palau and founder of Fish n Fins the pioneer dive shop in Palau) decided to go along the reef to the left. He could not believe his eyes, hundreds, maybe even thousands of fish of every color, size, and description! Blue Corner, one of the worlds best dive sites, was discovered purely by chance. In describing how to get to the dive site, Francis told the other dive guides, Go to the Blue Holes, and then go to the left until you come to the corner. That is how this unique and beautiful dive site became known as the Blue Corner.
Deutsche Beschreibung:
Blue Corner wird als bester Tauchplatz der ganzen Welt angesehen und ist konstant die Nummer 1 in der Tauchliteratur. Es ist der wahre Nervenkitzel! Selbst erfahrendste Taucher werden an diesem Tauchplatz ihre Luft schneller verbrauchen, wenn das Herz vor Aufregung schneller schlägt und die Atemzüge heftiger werden. Während der Zeit des Vollmonds, wenn die Strömung auf Palau ihren Höhepunkt erreicht, zeigt die "Blue Corner" ihre volle Schönheit. Die Strömungen, die sich an dieser Biegung des Außenriffes brechen und in die offene See herauskatapultiert werden tragen die Microorganismen mit sich, die den Beginn der Nahrungskette bilden. Wie in einem Schlaraffenland wird selbst dem kleinsten Fisch und jeder Koralle die Nahrung förmlich in den Mund getragen. Daher ist "Blue Corner" von Fischschwärmen förmlich überbevölkert. Der Fischbestand reicht von den kleinsten tropischen Rifffischen bis zu den großen pelegischen Haien, die dort überreichliche Beute finden. Der Taucher driftet durch dieses Wunderland und hängt sich dann mit seinem Riffhaken (Link zur Riffhakenbeschreibung)an einer felsigen Stelle ein. Der Riffhaken ist eine palauanische Erfindung, die es Ihnen erlaubt in der Strömung auf der Stelle zu schweben, gehalten von einem Seil, dass Sie im Riff fixiert. Dabei sind praktischerweise die Hände frei um zu fotografieren. Und dann beginnt die Show: Alles Leben wimmelt um Sie herum. 36 Haie auf einmal, ein Vorhang aus Barrakudas, Anemonen tanzen wild. Ein getupfter Adlerrochen schwebt ohne jede Anstrengung gegen die Strömung auf Sie zu. Schwärme von Moorish-Idols, wie urtümliche Ritter, Travellys reflektieren das Sonnenlicht mit ihren silbernen Kiemen, grüne Muränen strecken ihre Köpfe aus den Löchern und wiegen den Körper in einem komischen Tanz, Schildkröten gleiten hochmütig durchs Riff und ein riesiger Napoleon benimmt sich wie Ihr vertrauter Begleiter. Die Haie drängen einen Fischschwarm vom Riff weg und jagen mit eleganten Wendungen. Sobald ein Hai angreift, pulsiert das ganze Riff. Das aufwühlende Erlebnis einer Show an der "Blue Corner" bleibt Ihnen für immer im Gedächtnis, ebenso wie das Wissen um die Verbundenheit allen Lebens.

Man, 89, Killed in Valet Stand Crash on New Year's Eve
By CRA News Service
An 89-year-old Boca Raton man was killed after he rear-ended a car then crashed into a support column at a country club valet drop off area west of the city on New Year's Eve, authorities said.
Irving Rosenberg, 89 was rushed to Delray Medical Center where he died on Friday, according to the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office.
The crash occurred shortly before 7:30 p.m. on Thursday as Rosenberg was driving his Toyota Camry up to the valet station at the Boca West County Club, he crashed into the rear of a 2014 Infiniti Q50 driven by a valet employee, Daniel Rodriques, who was exiting the drop-off area, investigators said.
Rosenberg then accelerated into a support column for the building at 20583 Boca West Drive, north of Glades Road and just east of Florida's Turnpike, according to the report.
His passenger, Alice Rosenberg and Rodriques, 27, were taken to Boca Raton Regional Hospital with minor injuries, according to the report.
Firefighters who responded to the wreck had to use extraction tools to remove people from their cars, according to Palm Beach County Fire Rescue spokesman Albert Borroto.
Alcohol impairment was not a factor in the crash, according to the report.

ARVC's Profaizer Announces Retirement Plan
May 3, 2010 by Justin Leighty - () Comments Off on ARVC's Profaizer Announces Retirement Plan
National Association of RV Parks and Campgrounds (ARVC) President and CEO Linda Profaizer plans to retire at the end of this year, concluding a 40-year career in the campground business.
ARVC's full board was notified of her retirement plans on Friday, according to an ARVC news release.
"There comes a time in everyone's career when it's time to step down and move on," said Profaizer, who has spent 10 years at ARVC's helm. "The campground business has been a huge part of my life for 40 years – I love it and the people in it. Maybe now I'll get to enjoy visiting RV parks and campgrounds from the road instead of from the air!"
"I wish Linda nothing but the best, and realize that the most important thing we can do for our membership is to find the most qualified individual to replace her," said David L. Berg, ARVC chairman. "I appreciate Linda giving us plenty of notice of her intentions so we may use this time in a positive way."
Berg, who co-owns Red Apple Campground in Kennebunkport, Maine, with his wife, Jane, said he planned to ask the ARVC board for permission to launch a nationwide search for Profaizer's replacement.
Profaizer was hired as ARVC's vice president in 2000 and moved into the position of president/CEO in 2001. Prior to that she served nearly 30 years in management positions with Woodall's Publications Corp. leaving as the company's president. She started her career working in public relations for a major teaching hospital in Pittsburgh, Pa.
Berg praised Profaizer's dedication and work ethic.
"Linda has done an excellent job during her tenure at ARVC," he said. "When she traveled around this country and was speaking to our members and industry partners, her passion for this industry was obvious. Even when she was on vacation, I would get e-mails from her late into the night and early morning hours. She was always putting the needs of membership first, and now I hope she has the time to relax and enjoy life with her husband, Tony. She certainly has earned it. Linda has dedicated the majority of her life to the camping industry and she will be missed by many."
Berg said Profaizer has agreed to assist ARVC as needed after a new president and CEO is selected to ensure a smooth transition. "While one chapter may be ending," he said, "a new opportunity exists for our association and we are going to make the most of it."

Additional Information:
So did we ever figure out what this one was? It really doesn't match the Sky King because the top and bottom bezel lacks the vertical striped etching. Also the etching design isn't the fishes.
What is this?
Not For Sale

I'd go Sky King two ticks tentative. Jewel diff btwn 15 and 17 no biggie. It sorta looks like the ad has two horizontal engraved patterns, while the watch has one engraved horizontal part and the white gold part next to it is smooth.

Bent, the Aston Villa forward, has admitted the widely anticipated appointment of Redknapp could damage his burning ambition to represent his country this summer, after the infamous comment that arguably signalled the death knell for his career at Tottenham Hotspur three years ago.
Redknapp cruelly claimed "my missus could have scored that one" after Bent fluffed a late chance in Tottenham's 1-1 draw with Portsmouth in January 2009 and wasted no time in offloading a player he inherited to Sunderland at the end of that season.
Bent has rebuilt his career impressively since, with a £24million move from Wearside to Villa last season and was emerging as a regular starter under Fabio Capello, scoring four goals in the last seven England matches – goals which Redknapp's wife Sandra would have been hard pushed to score.
But after being left stunned by Capello's dramatic resignation this week, Bent is acutely aware that he now to start again as he bids to impress a manager who has been painted as his arch-nemesis.
He will get a chance to lay down an early marker on Sunday afternoon by beating Manchester City and England goalkeeper Joe Hart, who he says is the best in world football at his profession.
But that nagging doubt about whether a consistent flurry of goals will still be enough to cement his place on the England plane must be there.
He said: "He [Capello] left me out of the last World Cup squad but after that he picked me and played me every time I was fit so I thought I had a good chance of going to the Euro's this year, so it is just a shame he has quit.
"Now it is like the first day of school again, isn't it? Everybody has to impress and I'm sure there were people who were out of the mix who think they have a chance.
"All I have to keep doing is what I'm doing, play well for Aston Villa and no one can really ignore goals. If I can keep playing well and scoring goals I will get picked.
"If Harry is the manager or somebody else is the manager they will see that and pick me.
"Was there an issue betwen me and Harry? Not so much. A lot was built off that one quote. I didn't even know about it until the next day when it all blew up. But after a while it didn't bother me, really. People were asking me what Ithought but in my next game I scored two against Bolton."
It is that steely resolve that has enabled Bent to overcome many other detractors. He has over a century of goals in the Premier League – only Wayne Rooney has scored more over the last seven campaigns – and his record at Spurs was nowhere near as bad as it is perceived, yet his presence in England's starting XI is seen as more a glaring example of the lack of forwards currently operating in this country.
Last month the 28 year-old was dragged into a protracted transfer saga, with claims that he was heading to Liverpool as part of a possible exchange deal with Andy Carroll. But the window slammed shut without any turbulence and Bent is now fully focused on helping Villa, and their manager Alex McLeish, finish a capricious campaign strongly.
He said: "I have said for a while that I want to stay at Villa for a long time now. I am settled here, and I hope I can do it. Last month was easy for me.
"I didn't have to come out and say anything because I knew the situation, and the people around me did too. I hope it will show on the pitch with my commitment to the cause now and long may that continue.
"Now January is out of the way, we know what players we've got and we're all fighting for the same goal which is to finish in the top ten."
Finding the solution to Villa's dreadful home form is the key. With only three victories on their own turf all season, it has made McLeish's bitter defection from Second City rivals Birmingham even easier for supporters to use as an excuse.
The prospect of Roberto Mancini's title chasers today will bring the best out of Bent, however, although he must find a way past Hart. "He's probably the best in the world right now," he said.
"Considering how young he is he seems to have age beyond his years."
Last January Bent got the better of Hart, however, when he scored on his Villa debut as Gerard Houllier's side recorded an impressive 1-0 win over City.
"I gave him a bit of stick after that," says Bent. "With England we are always having banter about penalty saves and stuff like that, he's a really nice guy.
"It's between them and United [for the title]. A lot of times City have pulled away but United showed that never say die attitude and pegged it back."

|Balance transfer offer for new cards
|Purchases, cash advances and standard balance transfers
1APR=Annual Percentage Rate. Offer valid for 60 days after new card issuance. 0% APR will be applied to transferred credit card balances for six billing cycles after the balance transfer date. A fee of 2% of the amount advanced, up to $25, applies to all cash advances. After six billing cycles, any remaining transferred balances will have the variable APR disclosed in the current Important Credit Card Disclosures. Offer does not apply to cash advances. WSECU loans are not eligible. Some restrictions may apply.
Isn't forgetting to make a loan payment the worst? It doesn't look good on your credit report and sometimes there are late fees to boot. Yuck. The simple solution is automatic payment and we'd be more than happy to help set it up for you. If you'd like to schedule automatic payments yourself, give it a try under the Payments tab in Online Banking.
We're all about eco-friendly, and e-statements help keep things a little tidier all the way around. You can sign up for them under the Documents tab in Online Banking, be notified by e-mail when they're available for viewing and know they're securely stored for you. No more hard copies to file and shred!
Mobile Banking is account management on the go. Having the ability to check balances, keep tabs on activity and transfer funds on the spot – along with several other features – is very handy and pretty much the norm these days. We're happy to oblige.
You have a choice – browser or app – but you'll want the app because...wait for it...you get Mobile Deposit!
Online Banking is one of the ways we help you make banking the most enjoyable hassle of your day. And when there's access to check balances and activity, transfer funds, pay bills and more whenever you need it, banking really isn't a hassle at all, right?
What is payroll deduction? It's a way to have part of your paycheck deposited into an account or applied as a loan payment. We're happy to accept payroll deductions if your employer offers it – check with your company's payroll department for more information.
Shared Branching is the cooperative spirit in action. Thanks to a partnership with several of our fellow credit unions, you have WSECU branches away from home at over 5,000 participating credit unions. You can search for Shared Branches on our Locations page.
If you'd rather use a good old-fashioned phone to access your accounts, meet Telephone Banking. Our automated system lets you check account, loan and credit card balances, make transfers, check withdrawals and more. A quick call to our Contact Center for an access code will get you started. We also offer a guide with a detailed list of available services.
