As the winter snow begins to fall, and a winter wonderland appears, new ways to experience the park begin. The Parkway to the South Grove will close for the season around mid-November and remain closed until late April, but the North Grove area remains accessible. The North Grove campground is generally closed from November through early March.
At the end of the main parking lot, visitors will find the Warming Hut, which is completely funded by Calaveras Big Trees Association and staffed by Docents. Open weekends from November through March, complimentary hot chocolate, cider and coffee are served around a big open fire pit. Donations are always welcome.
On Saturdays, depending on the snow and weather, a guided snowshoe hike explores the North Grove trail. Snowshoes are provided at no charge for those that don't have their own. These hikes begin and end at the Warming Hut. If there is not enough snow for snowshoes, there will still be a guided hike.
Visitors are always welcome to snowshoe on their own. Snowshoes are available for rent in Arnold. Depending on the snow, just good hiking boots may get you out on the trails. Dress warm and be prepared for any kind of weather.
Cross Country skiing is available if you have your own equipment. A map is available at the Entrance Station or the Visitor Center that shows the trails you can explore.
Of course, snow play is always an option. There are some gentle short slope areas that are used for kids sledding. And of snowman building and snowball fights are always fun.
Calaveras Big Trees Association has an annual "Historic Carriage Ride" through the North Grove Area in December. A ride in a Cinderella carriage ride through a winter wonderland is followed by Christmas carols and refreshments in Jack Knight Hall. This event continues to grow. Please join our mailing list for more information.
The Visitor Center is generally open on weekends during the winter, and during the week before and after Christmas.

Neurosurgery is a branch of surgery that treats conditions and diseases of the brain and nervous system. Radiology is a medical specialty that helps diagnose and treat conditions and diseases using various radiology techniques.
Endovascular neurosurgery is a subspecialty within neurosurgery. It uses catheters and radiology to diagnose and treat various conditions and diseases of the central nervous system. The central nervous system is made up of the brain and the spinal cord. This medical specialty is also called neurointerventional surgery.
Interventional neuroradiology is a subspecialty within radiology. It also involves catheters and radiology to diagnose and treat neurological conditions and diseases.
The term endovascular means "inside a blood vessel." Endovascular neurosurgery uses tools that pass through the blood vessels to diagnose and treat diseases and conditions rather than using open surgery. The surgeon often uses radiology images to help him or her to see the part of the body involved in the procedure.
Healthcare providers in these specialties may also diagnose and treat conditions of the spinal cord using similar techniques, although not through a blood vessel.
These types of procedures are called "minimally invasive." This is because they generally need only a tiny incision instead of a larger incision necessary for open surgery.
Healthcare providers who specialize in endovascular neurosurgery need training in both neurosurgery and radiology. After a neurosurgery residency, they complete a fellowship program in endovascular neurosurgery. A neurosurgeon may be board certified in neurosurgery through the American Board of Neurological Surgery. Currently, there is no board certified specialty in endovascular neurosurgery.
Healthcare providers who specialize in interventional neuroradiology also need training in both radiology and neurology or neurosurgery. After a radiology residency, they complete a fellowship in interventional neuroradiology. A radiologist may be board certified in neuroradiology through the American Board of Radiology.
Endovascular neurosurgical procedures include:
Thrombolytic therapy. This procedure uses "clot-busting" medicine to dissolve a clot in a blood vessel in the brain or elsewhere in the body.
Endovascular coiling. A surgeon inserts a very thin metal wire that forms a coil inside a brain aneurysm to block blood flow. A brain aneurysm is a bulging, weakened area in the wall of an artery in the brain. This results in an abnormal widening or ballooning. Because the artery wall has a weakened spot, the aneurysm is at risk for bursting if blood flow isn't blocked. Aneurysm can be treated by coiling or clipping it closed.
Minimally invasive spine surgery. This procedure is used to treat spinal disorders. These include fractures, tumors, compressed nerves, and other conditions that put pressure on the spinal cord.
Cerebral angiography. This is a radiology procedure that looks at how blood is flowing in the brain.
Carotid artery angioplasty/stenting. This procedure uses a small balloon and/or a tiny metal scaffold called a stent to open a narrowed carotid artery. The carotid arteries supply blood to the brain.

virtual assistants - Virtual Staffing for Your Small Business
by Chris Malta
Virtual assistants are independent contractors or entrepreneurs who provide administrative assistance to multiple clients. Unlike regular assistants, they work out of their homes rather than at your business' physical location. Virtual staffing companies match virtual assistants with small and home-based businesses who need help running things. Many of these businesses are finding that there are numerous advantages to using a virtual assistant over hiring traditional help:
- . Location. If your office is small, you don't have to find a place to put another employee. This is an especially important concern for entrepreneurs with home offices.
. No Overhead. Virtual assistants provide their own office supplies, desk, computer, software, and phone lines.
. No Benefits. They're not your employee, so you aren't responsible for paying social security or income taxes, holidays, insurance, vacation or sick pay.
. Lots of Flexibility. It's significantly easier to find a virtual assistant who can work evening hours or weekends - after all, they're working from home. And you can give them more or less hours as your needs change.
Gayle Buske is the president and CEO of TeamDoubleClick.com, a highly reputed virtual staffing agency.
Her clients are often concerned about hiring someone without ever seeing their face. She reassures them that, because the agencies don't get to meet the people they send to their clients - often they're in different states - their hiring processes are a great deal more stringent. In fact, Buske admits, "We turn away about seventy percent of the people that we interview." Those who make the grade go through a nine-part interview process before they're trained and certified.
Virtual agencies try to match each client with an assistant who fits for their specific needs. They look at qualifications, personality and work style, and hours of availability - both number and times. Whatever your unique requirements, they'll work to find someone who's a good fit.
Common Client Concerns
. How Do I Know That My Assistant is Actually Working the Hours I'm Paying Them For?
To allow you to track their progress, many agencies have their staff send daily reports of their activities. They may say how many inbound calls they received, how many outbound calls they made, how many appointments they set, what documents they worked on, as well as how many hours they put in for the day and their cumulative hours for the week. These daily reports can help you stay on budget - if you see they've already worked the total hours you planned to pay them for, you can push back other projects until next week.
. How Hard is It to Work With Someone From a Remote Location?
Buske points out, "There's so much technology now that really facilitates working virtually." She contends it's as simple as hitting the speed dial instead of the intercom, or attaching files to an email rather than walking them to the next room. Most of your communication will be via phone, fax, and email. There are also online meeting programs, like GoToMeeting.com, that let you do demonstrations and presentations, such as for training purposes.
And their skills run the gamut - everything from accounting to marketing to graphic design. Whether you need someone to answer incoming calls and do mailers, or someone who can manage your entire business when you're away, you can find virtual staff with all levels of skills.

By creating unforgettable experiences that turn consumers into brand devotees, George P. Johnson CEO Chris Meyer '87 is reinventing marketing.
By Georgy Cohen
"Traditional marketing tactics," says 1987 SHA grad Chris Meyer, "are about creating awareness."
But for Chris, awareness is not enough.
So he spends his days thinking about how to make marketing more than just something you hear or see, but something you can smell, touch, taste, and feel—or even wear, drive, climb, or build.
In short, Chris believes you should be able to live it, so the barriers between you and the brand fall away, leaving you with a genuine experience—the most powerful marketing of all. That's why he is CEO of George P. Johnson, a leading global experiential-marketing agency.
"Experiential marketing is important because it's about building relationships," says Chris, who has been CEO since 2013. "It's about creating connections—emotional connections—between people and brands."
George P. Johnson, founded in 1914, creates immersive, personalized experiences for Fortune 500 clients including Fiat Chrysler, IBM, Gulfstream, Toyota, Salesforce, Honda, Cisco, Pepsi, Under Armour, and more. Some of these experiences and events include the annual Salesforce Dreamforce conference, which attracts over 150,000 attendees and is the biggest technology event of its kind, and Camp Jeep, a program where people actually ride in vehicles and talk with product experts as they experience how the vehicle performs in different landscapes and environments.
Chris says his interdisciplinary, business-focused curriculum at SHA uniquely prepared him to build a successful global marketing organization. And by applying the principles of hospitality through his leadership at George P. Johnson, Chris is redefining the industry.
"The foundation of education that I received at Cornell really made me understand the importance of people. And at the end of the day, we're in a people business. We deliver things, we make things, we create things. But it's all driven by people," he says. "All of the basics that allow you to exceed guest expectations apply to our business."
When Chris reflects back on his education at SHA, which afforded him the opportunity to draw knowledge from across Cornell's academic offerings, he sees a rich, multidimensional experience with broad application across industries.
"I think hospitality is no longer just about hotels," he says. "Hospitality is about experiences. It's about sports marketing. It's about hospitals. It's about retail. It's about anyplace where people are paid attention to and people spend time."
Chris says one of the biggest challenges in the experiential marketing space right now is finding qualified talent—and he is looking to Cornell students and graduates to help fill in the gaps.
"It's an exciting industry," he says. "It's an exciting time."

The Animated Ghostbusters Are Back From the Dead, Almost Like ... Dang, What's the Word?
The cartoon The Real Ghostbusters previously ran from 1986 to 1991.
To capitalize on the Stay Puft–sized success of the original 1984 Ghostbusters, an animated spin-off, The Real Ghostbusters, was created two years later; it ran on TV for seven seasons in the late '80s and early '90s. Now, presumably to capitalize on the projected [insert name of giant character from upcoming movie] success of Paul Feig's reboot, that idea has been resurrected: Variety reports that Sony is developing an animated Ghostbusters film.
Like an apparition, the project is presently hazy and indistinct — it's unclear whether the animated film would follow Feig's "four funny women," or be brand-new 'busters. Either way, Variety notes, "it's likely the film will follow the famous group as they fight supernatural forces" — sad news for anyone who hoped the movie would be a My Dinner With Andre–style dinner conversation.

Hotness can come in threes but pain can come in threes too. These vicious mean girls are getting their arms working out by slapping this loser of a slave. Each one take their turn faceslapping him over and over. The pain goes up and down his face as each one gets harder. The sexy mistresses are enjoying the punishment they are dishing out.
This red headed mistress that goes by the name of Tura loves humiliation, when it's given to a loser slave. She grabs a chunk of his hair and smashes his red face against the wood floor then slaps his face as hard as she can. Her sexy heels showing her petite feet tramples on the back of his head while he is kissing the freshly waxed wooden floor.
He can't say no to this fine little mistress. She may be small but she has a powerful slap that she is putting on him over and over again. This is the punishment he gets for not taking out the trash when he was suppose to. His red face looks like beets after she is done working his face. The pain is excruciating and he wants nothing more than for her to stop. Next time he will know not to mess with her.
These two sizzling hot mistresses have slipped into something skimpy teasing their loser slave as they make him get naked. Their punishment for not doing a good enough job is some brutal faceslapping over and over again until he yells he is in pain however even then they continue on with their humiliation. They yell at him to take it like a man and stop crying like a little bitch.

Why Shouldn't I Kill Myself?
I don't know why I'm posting this here or anywhere on the internet but I'm seriously thinking of just killing myself and being done with it. I don't feel there's a point to living anymore. If I do it then it will most likely be on May 31, 2016 after I have everything in order and a Will to distribute my valuables, good items, and virtual assets; after I printed out a suicide note and make a few youtube videos using my headset microphone talking about why I'm going to kill myself, and then destroy all my hard drives and anything else I don't want anyone to see once I'm dead.
I'll probably be calling the suicide hotline tomorrow or next week if I get more suicidal just to hear peoples' reasons why I shouldn't.
I feel like it's all hopeless and I'm in checkmate. It's like trying to escape being sucked into a blackhole and not be ripped apart by your atoms. It's just not possible to escape a blackhole and that's what my life is. Torment, suffering, and repeating the same things over and over with minor variations in the details. I should just kill myself and be done with it. No one cares. No one will remember my name. I won't be missed. I don't have anything to live for. My dreams are broken just like my heart. I have no more hope. My anger and my hatred are meaningless. Nothing is fueling me. I'll never rise so I figure I might as well experience my final fall by my own hands. The past month it's just been a deep plummet into this abyss and I realize the only exit and only victory is dying. I'll probably post a variation of this thread elsewhere on the internet for different answers. I don't expect I'll hear anything that will change my decision but I guess there's always a chance someone might be able to influence me from metaphorically jumping off the edge or the ledge, whatever you think is the better fitting word.
Here's my possible three best choice methods:
Overdosing on high content alcohol, a bottle of pharmaceutical cough syrup with codeine I didn't use, and an entire bottle of prescription anti-anxiety medicine. I figure this has a 95% success rate
Buying ultra sharp razors, so sharp I wouldn't feel the pain, and then slitting my wrists and bleed to dead. I figure this had a 99.999% chance if I made vertical slashes and cut my veins. Horizontal slits have a higher survival rate so I'd go with the vertical slashes so I'd have a better chance of dying.
Buying sleeping medicine, overdosing, and collapse outside at night and die of hypothermia while passed out outside. I figure this has an 85% success rate at this time of year
I would list jumping off one of the two major bridges in my state but I don't feel like experiencing all my bones breaking when I hit the water and then having to be fished out of the waters. I want my family to see my dead body and I want them to feel whatever pain they would feel once I am dead.
Most likely I'll choose to overdose on high content alcohol (so much my liver wouldn't be able to process it fast enough and it would poison my blood), cough syrup with codeine (adds to the alcohol and will negatively affect my breathing), and the entire bottle of my anti-anxiety prescription (calm, soothing, and also help me go through with it). Even if they revive me I'd probably be in a coma permanently so I'd write in my will I don't want to be kept alive on life support.

Re: Why Shouldn't I Kill Myself?
You need to turn off your computer, breathe deep, relax, smile, and talk to someone you trust. Call/visit a friend, family member, etc. You're in a rut and reading/posting on the internet is exacerbating your troubles. You need to get offline and into the real world, talk to people, and make changes.
Re: Why Shouldn't I Kill Myself?
I'm in the real world everyday since I am working full-time. My family is terrible. I have no real friends to talk to. I smile almost everyday but it's fake. I'm not happy and probably never will be with the way things are and the way my life is.
Re: Why Shouldn't I Kill Myself?
Then you need to make an effort to find new friends. Also, visit a psychologist as soon as you can. You are blessed with life, with many blessings right around you. Start talking to some new people, and you'll start to see how good you have things.

He's bluffing. Real suicidal maniacs move in silence. He's not about that life....or death I should say. lmao foh. Yup f-o-h with that dumb shit.
Or you can even get Markus McCloud to do it for you so you wouldn't be to identify whom he is anyway after he does it to you.

Re: Why Shouldn't I Kill Myself?
Tsar: Maybe a big problem is that you're trying to find a "meaning" to life (as in: "what's the meaning of life?"), but it's an incongruent question- it doesn't match up with the situation. You might remember being a kid & someone would ask "Are you gay?" & you'd say "No" & then they'd say "Do your parents know you're gay?" It's like that. It's a question that presumes life is a task, which it's not. Don't know how much point there is in trying to articulate what it is, since language has to eventually connect to something & so there's no way to ultimately define anything.
Not trying to rub your face in anything, but it seems you're trying to ratiocinate life. This is a "hampster wheel" situation. Keep in mind that (and this doesn't mean that it's not important) there's no objective reason to anything, even survival. Why would it be important? So that the species can be continued? So what- why is that an issue? Because the planet would be a dead rock? So? Not unimportant things, but any kind of value is not an objective style- then again, neither is the drive to be objective or "objectish" (the second one is perhaps more apt).
As far as your reasoning that you might wind up in a coma & would have a DNR order, don't believe that it would be effective. My mother's boyfriend was at the hospital when his father died & they had kept him alive DESPITE the "Do Not Resuscitate" order. They don't really think other people sway their actions, even the ones they direct toward THOSE people. If you're worried about waking up retarded or maimed in some way, keep in mind that they DO that shit deliberately from time to time.
Are you still living in America? I thought you didn't like that part of the world. I know there are times where I feel like I'm trying to hunt deer in the ocean living here & it's made worse by people that act like surrounding conditions are not a factor- in order to feel less vulnerable, they act like there isn't a situational component to what you can do. They act like it's all a question of you & how much intensity you put into what you do- even when there's nothing to apply any action to. What are you supposed to be doing? Conjuring a situation through mere willpower?
Just as a suggestion, you might want to try a vacation somewhere to "recharge your batteries" so you can get something real going. Another idea is to workout really hard- actually push yourself, instead of what people tend to think of as "the safe way." Not saying to keep going if it feels like your joints are coming apart, but basically push yourself severely. This is kind of exertion seems to be helpful in ways that are a little tough to describe, but it's at the very least not "whistling in outer space."

Re: Why Shouldn't I Kill Myself?
First off, this feeling probably won't ever be shaken from your life, as, our situation in the world is accurately assessed through these types of feelings--suicide. But, you're making a big mistake doing this. I argue against doing it from a spiritual perspective, but, maybe that isn't your thing. I didn't see any reflection on your part of consequence for losing your human self. But, taking another track, no shit family is worthless, f**k 'em, but not by you being dead in a casket. Just f**k them--be free of all the shit symbolically in death. Die somewhat to that which is trying to kill you. You are at the base floor--that's the best place to be for not being fooled by reality--and then just go out and do stuff. Get out of your situation, get out of America. Be a truthseeker and find the amazing magic that is out there. You can only find it if alive. I hope you decide to do so. I will feel bad if you kill yourself as we probably have all been there.
Re: Why Shouldn't I Kill Myself?
You are employed at the moment and saving money, correct? If you kill yourself, you're letting your destructive family and the bastards in your environment get the best of you. I think before you kill yourself you should consider all the options you have. If you're willing to kill yourself, then why not take a big risk and try something new with your life? You have nothing to lose. Killing yourself means there is a 100% chance that nothing will ever work out for you. Doing something crazy like working on a ranch in Brazil has a < 100% chance of failure.
Here are some ideas:
1) Save your money so you can rent an apartment. Limit communication with your toxic family. You'll feel better in your own place and can maybe get a woman.
2) Spend less time on the internet.
3) Work out. Bulk up or get fit.
4) Make a plan to vacation abroad.
Re: Why Shouldn't I Kill Myself?
Holy Jesus Tsar, I didn't know you felt this bad. DON'T KILL YOURSELF, we all have felt horribly depressed at various times in our lives. Winston himself said he felt like killing himself a few times when he was younger.
Now he says it's a good thing he didn't commit suicide or he would of never had all the fun and met all the women he has in his traveling to Russia, Ukraine and the Philippines.
Please don't do it Tsar, I will be praying for you.

Re: Why Shouldn't I Kill Myself?
Asking for sympathy this way is kind of gay if you ask me. But hey this kind of thread shows how social isolation rots many individuals' minds in America.
He would get more sympathy if he was humble and depressed, but he is arrogant and depressed.
Dukes of Hazard reference: "my life sucks.., but I'm so above everyone else".
Face it Tsar, you are just an average Joe like most of us, deal with it. No sun-king or any of that bullshit, and things won't land on your lap just by themselves. Just let those delusions go. Heck even rock stars had to put a lot of sacrifice to become such.
If you had some humility you'd see things are not just about yourself and that others actually have bigger problems. There are many nice things out there to experience and you have received plenty of advice on how to get started, instead of sticking to theorizing and bullshit extreme idealism.
I'm waiting for S_parc's take on this.
*I hope there are no legal consequences for opining in a thread like this, should the dude actually do something stupid.

Oh yeah, and if you screw up your suicide, you could become a conscious vegetable for the rest of your life, and you'll have to live with that shame, most likely in a nursing home bed.

I spent a long time learning Greek from online courses but I really needed the confidence to speak. Tatiana has been great. She is very adaptable and fits lessons in for me when it is convenient. She is also very friendly and encouraging and has really helped me to progress. We chat and so I learn vocabulary about things that I want to talk about and she is also capable of explaining the complexities of the language in a simple way. I love that she sends the vocabulary after each lesson in flash card and quiz form and I can work on it between lessons.
Jane Richardson, Stockport UK
After 3 years at night school learning Greek, I became frustrated at being unable to hold even a basic conversation.
I found Tatiana via a very good friend and over the last year she has improved the conversational skills of our small group significantly.
She introduced us to past and future tense and encourages us to discuss everyday things. We ask each other questions about what we have done and we are becoming more confident each time.
Tatiana is very patient and understanding and has a sparkling personality which make the lessons fun as well as informative. We all look forward to our sessions with her very much.
She uses an app called Quizlet where she captures the new things we discuss and sends them through after each session. We can then practice what we've learned by hearing and reading them and also playing some games.All in all the whole learning package is superb.
Kanan M. Azerbaijan
First of all, Tatiana is a very good and an interesting person to be acquainted with which, in turn, makes her lessons extremely exciting. As for the methods Tatiana employs in her lessons, especially, for these via skype, they are quite effective and make everything more relevant and easy to learn for the students. It is very useful to start a lesson with a chat about your daily life, like you do with your friends, and it really helps to boost your speaking skills. I really like how prepared Tatiana is for her lessons with small exercises and texts that improve your grammar and reading (Tatiana provides her students with necessary materials electronically). Thank you Tatiana for so much efforts you put forth to teach your students.
Anar M. Azerbaijan
I live in Greece and have been trying to learn Greek in a "conventional" way for a while without having much success in terms of being able to speak and understand local people.
Eventually, I started to look for alternatives, discovered lessons offered by Tatiana via Skype and decided to give it a try.
I have to say that her way of teaching was a game changer, in last three months I made more progress with her than in the whole previous year.
Tatiana's way of teaching is very different from rigid, academic style and is much more practical and down to earth, since during our lessons we discuss topics that people are more likely to focus on in real life.
Also, after each lesson she sends me Quizlet flashcard with the material we covered and I find this extremely useful as well.
Highly recommend Tatiana to anyone, who wants to start speaking Greek quickly and is like myself getting bored easily with the traditional way of foreign language teaching.
Andreas H. Kyriakou, Oslo, Norway
During spring this year I started to take these great and very 'learnful' Skype lessons with Tatiana. I am a half Greek Cypriot living in Norway but still can't speak fluently Greek. I was searching the web for a good Greek online course. Many seemingly great online courses were available, and it was difficult to choose one. But when I discovered the Skype course by Tatiana on Facebook I never felt in doubt for choosing her course.
Her skype course kickstarted my goal to be able to speak Greek fluently. I think she is a really great teacher who knows how to use Skype as a terrific learning tool. The way she uses Skype to chat about daily things and situations has been very helpful for me to get into learning and speaking Greek fluently. I would recommend Tatiana's course to everyone who is interested in learning Greek, regardless of what level they are already on!
Dawn Georgiadi, Hampshire, England
Tatiana's style of teaching Greek is like a breath of fresh air. After years trying with various CBT packages like Linguaphone and Rosetta Stone and even structured college courses but never getting beyond 'holiday Greek' to find someone who teaches Greek so naturally and easily has been a blessing. It is like learning from your best friend, with humour and genuine endless patience.
I have had just 12 lessons so far and during a visit to my house in Cyprus in May I was able to hold reasonable simple conversations with the Greeks. It was wonderful, all of the frustrations over the years created by my inability to speak with my neighbours in their own language melted away.
Every lesson via Skype is backed up by a transcript of the vocabulary used, and is followed by a 'quizlet' session link which encourages you to practice how to say, read and write everything learnt in the lessons. A very effective method and I have no doubt that with Tatiana's help I will be fluent in no time at all.
Nehemiah Austin, Georgia, US
Miss Tatiana is an intelligent and engaging teacher. Her familiarity with English and American English is a very useful tool for anyone to have. What really helped me in my time learning with Miss Kavvadia was that she let me go at my own pace. It has been a very personable and amiable exchange. I would recommend her teaching style to anyone trying to learn or teach a foreign language. Efraristw poli Miss Kavvadia!
Sheila C. Manchester, UK
I really enjoyed the classes, I liked the way they were organized. We started with an informal discussion of what we had done since the previous lesson, and then did more structured exercises from books. Tatiana was always helpful and encouraging. I liked the way I received vocabulary from the lesson at the end of each session.
Chris D. Bridport, UK.
My name is Chris, and I am a musician. I first needed to learn Greek to understand Cretan music for work. Trouble is, nobody where I live speaks even rudimentary Greek; I don't even have a Greek restaurant anywhere within 3 hours!
That's where Greek via Skype comes in.Two hours a week in casual topical chat with Tatiana [or would you rather be Konstantina??] over Skype, and I can now hold a conversation, have a decent grasp of grammar, and understand colloquialisms when I hear them. The majority of each lesson is just talking Greek which reinforces learned grammar; we look at new grammar, and a new lexicon comes up naturally in conversation – new words in context.
Homework is revision of the day's play, and perhaps new grammar. The best part is, before you have the opportunity to look at your watch, the hour's up, and you're looking forward to the next day's lesson, that's how enjoyable the lessons are. No subject is off the agenda – anything which puts learning in context.
Tatiana won't mind me saying, she has great sense of humour which makes the lesson fun, and I now think of her not just as a tutor, but as a friend in Athens on the other end of the phone! She seems to have infinite patience; crikey, sometimes she needs it!! I cannot recommend Greek via Skype highly enough.
Etsuko Nozawa Tokyo, Japan
Tatiana is a great Greek teacher! I've been learning the language from her for some years now. She is very professional, fun, generous to mistakes, and flexible. She has a great knowledge of the Greek language and can answer all of my questions.
She can even explain cultural and historical backgrounds for my better understanding. Lessons are customized to your level, but she makes sure to stress Grammar and Speaking parts. Her passion to teaching Greek is incredible and really motivates my studying!
Marny Willis, Larnaca, Cyprus
I live in Cyprus and have attended several Greek classes over the years. These were fine as a start to learning the language but I needed a more individual program which involved more one to one speaking. Learning on Skype is the perfect answer.
It's all oral and the conversation is directed at my interests. No writing is required by me during the lesson as Tatiana records all new words and corrections in Skype messages. The starting point of the lessons is a textbook and I have a copy to refer to later. Grammar is a part of the lesson, as it needs to be , but all the emphasis is on talking.
Keith Bolshaw, Surrey, UK
Like many others, I was struggling to teach myself using free online Greek lessons and had made shamefully little progress for some months of trying. I knew I would have to make a proper commitment to have any chance of learning Greek, but my work commitments made it impossible to attend classes and I had none of the discipline needed to teach myself with a book.
Luckily, I stumbled across greekviaskype.blogspot.com
and knew that this was the way I could combine real lessons, with a real teacher, held at the pace I need and in the only place I would always be able to attend. Since I started, I have not looked back. Tatiana is extremely patient and professional and her course follows a logical structure that is building up my knowledge of grammar as well as vocabulary in a way that makes sense of the whole language. After a few false starts, I am finally really learning Greek!
Natalia Kleimenova, Moscow, Russia
I was studying greek last year in a class of 10, and this year started 1 to 1 with Tatiana. I am moving so much faster, learning much more words and actually starting to have a real conversation, not a textbook one about rain in spring and taking umbrella. I am going to continue and hope to be able to participate in conversation by the end of year.
John Callan, Vancouver, WA, US
Tatiana is teaching Greek to my 11-year-old daughter twice a week for the past year. As a super-satisfied customer, I can tell you I interviewed several elderly Greek teachers -- mostly retired college teachers -- here in Portland Oregon area who would have met with my daughter face to face.
None approached the convenience and excitement of working with someone who actually lives in Athens. Once the little bit of technology and billing issues were worked out, the student-teacher relationship took over, and this long distance learning over Skype has been working beautifully.
Chris, H. Darlington UK
I have always enjoyed languages. I did French at school and found it really easy to pick up. I have had holidays in Greece for the last 5 years and wanted to get a better understanding of the language more so than just please and thank you.
I found Tatiana via Google and we spoke over Skype about how I liked to learn and what id like to pick up. We had lessons for nearly 18 months and I enjoyed every single one of them. Tatiana is always available to answer questions outside of lesson time and I was embarrassed to say she had to re-teach me some English to then learn it in Greek.
She's absolutely bilingual and will give you a great learning of the language, plus she is Greek so you learn all the words the natives 'actually' say! I just wanted to say ευχαριστώ πολύ for being a great teacher and I would recommend you to anyone!
Louise G. San Diego US
I have been learning Greek on and off for about ten years. My father is Greek but we never spoke Greek in the house when I was a child so I took it up myself to learn the language. Most of my attempts have been in a group lesson setting in an evening class but I could never commit to the schedule, I was always too tired after work. Added to which, it's hard to learn at your own pace in a group class. It's always either too fast or too slow.
I was SO relieved to find Tatiana. I'm just annoyed I didn't find her 10 years ago! Tatiana is so patient, so bright and so organised. She runs her lessons in such a way that you're absorbing what you've learned quicker than you'd expect. She gets you talking soon too, so you really feel like you're progressing.
Skype lessons are by far the best way to learn a language too (aside from living in the country). I can roll out of bed, turn on my laptop and learn Greek. It couldn't be easier :)
Charles v.d.L. Bristol UK
Despite going to Greece every summer, I couldn't speak a word of Greek before my lessons with Tatiana. She is a really patient and clear teacher and I learnt a lot. When I went back to Greece after my lessons I found I was able to understand and read a lot more than I expected and had the confidence to have some basic conversations too.
My 6 year old son also had lessons with Tatiana, he loved speaking to her on Skype and learning some Greek words to use on his holiday!
Alice P. Moscow Russia
I would highly recommend Greek lessons with Tatiana. She is a professional Greek teacher and pursues systematic approach which makes learning Greek with her a very efficient process. She is a bright, nice and fun person. Every lesson with her is an enjoyable experience."
Bob B. Hull Yorkshire, UK
Learning to speak Greek without a native Greek tutor is nigh on impossible I know because for years that's what I've been trying to do. Having decided a tutor was essential my next challenge was finding one. To cut a long story short I couldn't find a Greek tutor locally and started looking for on-line courses.
After much research I decided to give Tatiana's Learn Greek via Skype a try and have not looked back. I have been taking one lesson a week for the last 12 weeks and my spoken and written Greek has progressed more in that time than it has in the previous 5 years.
Tatiana is very friendly and an excellent teacher who is able to break down the almost incomprehensible and complex Greek grammar into bite sized manageable pieces which can then be easily learnt.
If your goal is to learn to speak Greek as easily and quickly as possible without having to leave the comfort of your own home then I highly recommend you contact Tatiana.
Anton L. Amsterdam,Holland
Tatiana is a very very good teacher. The lessons are always helpful to me and she explains everything really well. She makes learning a joy, which is quiet an accomplishment itself. If it wasn't for her, I wouldn't have made the progress that I made today.
Dominic M. Northwich UK
As a Greek 'beginner' I have been having lessons with Tatiana for a year now and I cannot believe how much I have learned. Working in an office it has been a real gift to be able to break off for an hour of Greek on my PC and all in the comfort of my own office ! It's always fun and the hour flies by whether we are working from a book or just in conversation.
Tatiana is professional, very well qualified and indeed, patience personified. I would recommend her to anyone wanting to speak in this wonderful language.

Tatiana is an engaging and interesting teacher.
She is well prepared and uses a variety of teaching methods to assist in learning.
I worked hard with Tatiana but we also had fun together learning.
I can recommend her whole heartedly as a Greek teacher who is patient, thorough and moves you forward with a good understanding of the language.

I started learning Greek on my own. I soon realized I would need a native Greek speaker. I interviewed a few and decided on Tatiana. I like the convenience of having the classes on my own schedule in my own home over the internet. The things I like is Tatiana's English is the best. I also like that she focuses on grammar as well as speaking.

Having classes online with Tatiana is so convenient! I used to take classes after work and ended up missing many classes because I got stuck at work. Now I have scheduled my classes for 7AM my time, so I get to do my Greek class in my pijamas while I have my morning coffee
;-). Her fees are also super reasonable!!

I too have been trying to learn Greek for years! Always signing up to expensive group classes, which I never managed to attend for more than 2 lessons in a row, because I had to go there physically and it was
set during working hours.
Thanks to Tatiana I have completed 6 lessons and made great progress! The 1-hour class is reasonably priced and Tatiana is lovely person, very patient and very professional. Go for it!
Darya Haitoglou, Geneva, Switzerland
Really nice and friendly approach to Greek-learning. I enjoy our lessons with Tatiana very much and look forward to speaking fluent Greek in a year's time :). She is very good and i trust she can help me do that with her systematic approach.
Emma Woodfine, Dorset, UK
I agree, excellent teacher, very flexible and low
fee. Also Tatiana is a friendly and helpful person/teacher.
Anthony Woodfine, Dorset, UK

Beatriz Sfakianakis, Madrid, Spain

Vegetables and fruits are essential for a healthier diet. They improve our immune system and provide us with fibre, vitamins, antioxidants and nutrients. However, with our modern eating habits, we have stopped consuming fruits and vegetables. As a result, our bodies don't have enough energy to fight nasty diseases.
Courtesy-Cooking Light
Here is how you can add fruits and vegetables to your daily routine for a healthy diet:
- The Breakfast Bowl
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and what better way to start your day with a fruit bowl. Simply add Greek yogurt to your bowl, top it off with mixed berries, slice fruits and drizzle some honey over it. You can also add granola, oats and raisins as a topping.
- Double Vegetables
Almost all food items have a certain amount of vegetables in it; you can double the veg amount in your pizzas, sandwiches and pastas. Everyone consumes more vegetables this way.
- Portions of Snacks
Prep small portions of fruit or vegetable snacks and pack them. Get creative with your snacks, instead of a pack of ready to eat snack, slice off some kale and sweet potato chips. Season them with salt and pepper and bake them for a crispy snack on the go.
- Be Sneaky
The best thing about sauces and thick gravies is that you never know what is inside. Be sneaky and make your marinara sauce with several vegetables.
Fruit and veg delivery Sydney wide has become quite easy because of the wide range of products available on the online stores. You can also get your favourite products delivered to your doorstep with just a single click.

So much I wish I could say to you Malala - you are such a wise soul for a girl so young. As millions of others have already told you - you inspire me and have also helped teach me not to embrace stereotypes and prejudice against other cultures. Happy Birthday - I'm so glad that the Taliban failed in silencing you - in fact, they made you and your message so strong that they will fail now.ReplyDelete

Dear Malala,ReplyDelete
I am a doctor by passion, but while I was listening your speech, I wish to be a teacher just to meet and help children like you to grow up.
Be brave and fight for all your dreams! Always. There is a poem from a Portuguese writer, António Gedeão, which describes the following:
"They do not know, or dream,
that dream commands life,
that whenever a man dreams
the world leaps and advances
as colored ball
in the hands of a child."
Thank you!
God bless you,
Dear malalaReplyDelete
i late wish to you but i not forgot you . Iam a indian and muslim i wish to hearty HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU AND HAPPY RAMZAN MUBARAK
Malala, I am reading the Vanity Fair article about your courage to my 10-year-old daughter, Sky. She is in disbelief and shock at what you have overcome and accomplished in your life thus far, as am I. You are now her role model -- she wants a poster of you to put on her bedroom wall! She realizes how much she takes for granted being an American -- her freedoms, her education, playing outdoors and so much more.ReplyDelete
We both wish you a belated happy birthday, and we plan to celebrate MALALA DAY every year. Sky and I look forward to reading your blog and especially what's to come.
Of course Sky wants to know if you will be learning to drive now that you are 16!
Your UN speach brought me to tears. What amazing parents you have.
Be well,
Julie & Sky Stinnett
This girl certainly has the spirit of the late BENZIR BHOTTOReplyDelete

The Rainbow Project began in 2013 and was initially the brainchild of Ryan Witter-Merithew (then Head Brewer at Siren Craft Brew). Since its humble beginnings this celebration of collaborative and innovative brewing has become a key fixture in the annual beer calendar,
Here's how it all came about…
For its first outing, The Rainbow Project brought together seven of our favourite breweries from the UK: Magic Rock, Partizan, Hawkshead, Kernel, Brodies and Buxton. Each brewery was asked to brew an IPA loosely based around a colour which was randomly assigned to them and a small launch party was held at King William IV in London. People travelled from all over the country to find out what all the fuss was about, and they weren't disappointed, as each brewery made the most of the opportunity to experiment with ideas, recipes and brewing techniques.
Upping the ante for 2014, we decided to call up some friends from Europe (+ Evil Twin) to add a whole new dimension to the project. On the UK side Beavertown replaced Brodies and Wild Beer Co replaced The Kernel. The random pairings came out as follows:
Magic Rock + Evil Twin (Denmark/New York) – Red
Beavertown + Naparbier (Spain) – Orange
Buxton + Omnipollo (Sweden) – Yellow
Hawkshead + Lervig (Norway) – Green
Partizan + Mikeller (Denmark) – Blue
Wild Beer Co + Toccalmatto (Italy) – Indigo
Siren + De Molen (The Netherlands) – Violet
Launch events were held at Beavertown (London), Port Street Beer House (Manchester), Small Bar (Bristol), Hanging Bat (Edinburgh), Torst (USA) and Man in the Moon (Stockholm). We also put together 250 mixed cases, each including the seven collaboration brews and a souvenir glass.
Now in its third outing, 2015 represented a breakthrough year for the project. Excitement was rife after the success of the European creations, and as word got around that we were looking to the USA for inspiration, we were lucky enough to perk the interest of state-side breweries considered to be brewing some of the best beer in the world. Our transatlantic pairings lined up like this:
Magic Rock + Cigar City (Florida) – Red
Buxton + Arizona Wilderness (Arizona) – Orange
Partizan + Prairie Artisan Ales (Oklahoma) – Yellow
Hawkshead + Crooked Stave (Colorado) – Green
Siren Craft Brew + Surly (Minnesota) – Blue
Beavertown + Dogfish Head (Delaware) – Indigo
Wild Beer Co + Firestone Walker (California) – Violet
We held brewery launch events at Magic Rock and Beavertown, plus bars operated by Buxton and Wild Beer Co. This was supplemented by events at Port Street Beer House (Manchester), Small Bar (Bristol) and Hanging Bat (Edinburgh). This time 1,000 Mixed Cases were put together and sold at the events and online, with demand outstripping supply once again, even with the 750 more sets than 2014.
The 2016 International Rainbow Project headed to New Zealand! Following the unprecedented success of the 2015 project, we wanted to strike while the iron was hot and snap up some of the breweries making the best beer in the world.
From the UK we were joined by Beavertown, Burning Sky (making their Rainbow Project debut), Hawkshead, Partizan and Wild Beer Co. Our New Zealand counterparts were the superb: 8 Wired, Fork & Brewer, Garage Project, Liberty Brewing, Panhead, ParrotDog and Yeastie Boys.
We made the draw live on #CraftBeerHour – the organised Twitter chat specifically for craft beer fans every Tuesday evening, and then came full circle when the beers were announced on the channel just before launch date. On September 17th 2016 we released 1,500 mixed cases, which included all seven of the year's beers along with a souvenir Rainbow Project 2016 glass. The mixed cases were available from official brewery party launch events including at Siren Craft Brew, Magic Rock and Beavertown. A limited amount of mixed cases were also available to purchase online, through our partners at HonestBrew. We air-freighted over kegs from all the New Zealand breweries, which made the launch parties unique opportunities to try some of the best hoppy beer in the world.

10 Tips for Submitting Illustrations to Greeting Card Publishers
Now that you've got some great marketable designs, here are some helpful tips and guidelines for submitting your samples to greeting card publishers.
1. Label Each Sample : Whatever method you decide to send your samples
to greeting card publishers, always label your samples with :
- • Your Name
- • website
- • phone number
When emailing samples, label your file names clearly with your name and descriptive title (example HCastles_PinkLily.jpg)
2. Protect your images : by watermarking JPGs with © Your Name, or on printed samples write © Your Name with your contact information.
3. Avoid Sending :
- • original artwork
- • faxes
- • slides
- • low resolution prints
- • hi resolution files via email
4. Do send :
- • clear print outs (See How to prepare illustration samples for Publishers for how to prepare print outs)
- • Cd's with jpgs (include your contact information on the CD AND as a PDF within the CD. label each jpg within the CD with your name, and only send LOW Resolution…this is for approval only)
- • 3 or 4 low resolution jpgs via email (should not exceed 100kb per jpg)
- • teaser emails inviting to see your work online
- • contact sheets of your designs (2×3 inches)
5. Provide Prices : Some publishers have a set budget for illustration, while others will vary depending on the artwork. Make sure to clearly indicate the price and currency of each piece (Example CAN$250) Tip : Don't aim too low because if your work is purchased, it will be hard for you to up your price later.
6. Send a Variety of samples : If you have more than one style that you do well, send samples of 'em all! If a publisher knows you are able to provide more than one style, that makes you a more valuable service provider.
7. Submitting Everyday Illustrations : While it's good to branch out a bit, try to illustrate a good bunch of the obvious stuff! Greeting card publishers are always looking for a fresh take on the old traditional concepts…birthday cakes, party hats, florals, you name it…the more mundane it is, the more it's crying out to be refreshed!
8. Submitting Seasonal Illustrations : It can kind of screw with your mind a bit thinking about illustrating for Easter while it's Halloween…but that's the way it is! When contacting companies to ask what season THEY are in as it varies from publisher to publisher. Tip : Try to set aside some time to illustrate seasonal subject matter while you're actually in that season…this allows you to build up a small collection to submit to publishers or have on-hand if it is requested out-of-the-blue.
9. Follow Up : Don't be discouraged if you don't hear back from a publisher directly…they receive dozens of samples a week, and often those samples don't coincide with THEIR current season. So make sure to follow up with the publisher that your samples came through, and continue to send samples and keep your work "in front of them" throughout the year.
10. Contracts & Licensing of Artwork : Once you start working with a publisher, make sure you understand what you are selling. Most greeting card companies prefer to purchase exclusive rights to the art, meaning they are the only company who can use the art…they often pay more for the artwork, but it is a one-time sale for you. In this case especially, be sure to request samples of the cards, as well as your name / credit on the printed card. On the other hand, some publishers only purchase the rights to use the artwork for greeting cards, which allows you to continue to sell the artwork to other "non-greeting card" industries…these publishers often pay less for the artwork, but you still have the potential to gain revenue from the same illustration.

Item arrived in perfect condition.
Bought this as a gift and it is just what I was looking for. Nice quality too.
Love this map. Very unique - just as pictured. Fast delivery.
This Mississippi River Historic Ribbon Map is a hand-painted gift print by Wisconsin Artist, Lisa Middleton. This print is a color replica of an 1887 black and white map drawn by journalist and explorer Willard Glazier. The map includes the whole Mississippi River from its headwaters to the Gulf of Mexico and includes most towns currently on the river, and some that are no longer there. Ribbon maps were used by steamboat passengers to follow the progress of the boat along the length of the Mississippi River. The long, thin shape is perfect for cabins and narrower walls. The Mississippi River Historic Ribbon Map Gift Print is a perfect gift for a history buff or anyone with an interest in the Great River.
