Vorak walked through the tavern doors, stopped at the doorway, and looked around the open room. He saw a collection of different things: a few dwarves, some elves, and a lot of men. There were only a small handful of other orcs in the room, making Vorak a little uncomfortable. He wasn't used to seeing his orc brothers sitting with dwarves, elves, and men, drinking ale and regaling stories. Dwarves, elves, and men were meant to be smashed.
He walked slowly through the tavern, staring at each thing as he walked by. No one in the room paid much attention to Vorak, not even the other orcs. Instead, the other orcs kept drinking, spill bits of ale down their chins and onto their still blood soaked chests. The orcs smiled as the men, elves, and dwarves spoke. The ocrs' crooked and sharp teeth jutted between their lips as they smiled. Normally the sight of an orc bearing his teeth would bring Vorak great joy and excitement. But this wasn't battle, and it made Vorak sick.
He grabbed one of the other orcs, wrapped his hand around the other orc's tied back hair, pulled his head back and Vorak drove his fist into the other orc's face, pummelling him off of his chair and onto the wooden floor.
"You drink and be merry with the enemies!" Vorak cried. "We haven't been out of battle but minutes and already you betray your own blood!"
The orc on the floor chuckled, then the rest of the tavern began laughing loud. Vorak looked down at his prey and saw that there was no mark on his face. Vorak had crushed other orcs twice his size with half as hard of a punch. Why had this orc not even have a scratch, not even dust from the floor on his face.
"Aye son," the orc said. "You have no clue where you are, do you?"
The tavern began shaking with laughter again. Vorak looked around and saw all matter of creature in the tavern all sharing the same laugh at his expense.
In a rage, Vorak grabbed a table with a single hand threw it against the wall. Only for the table to never connect to the wall. Instead, the minute it left Vorak's hand, it vanished. And in the same instance, it reappeared in the spot he picked it up from.
Once again, the tavern shook with laughter.
The other orc took his seat and wrapped his hand around his ale stein. "Best talk to the barkeep, young lad," he said. "I was the same as you when I first got here. The barkeep will set you drink and send you off with a pint."
"What magic has cursed this place to never be destroyed?" Vorak sneared.
"Just, talk to the barkeep," the other orc repeated. "Oh, and make sure he doesn't pour you any of that stout shite. You won't be used to it."
"Why not?" Vorak asked.
"No blood," the orc replied. "Will never taste the same without the dwarf blood in it."
"Funny," a pudgy, red-haired dwarf at the table interrupted. "I always preferred my stout with goblin blood. You gotta boil those suckers for a long time before you can put them in the barrels though. You don't know a burning arse-hole shite until you've drank raw goblin blood!"
The tavern erupted with laughter and the dwarf drove his hand to the table with every breath of laugh he let out. Vorak watched all the creatures share the laugh as he walked over to the barkeep. He was human, small, with scraggly long hair and a thick dark beard. Vorak locked eyes with the barkeep as he reached the bar.
"What kind of sorcery is this?" Vorak demanded.
"No sorcery at all, good sir," the barkeep replied, smiling. "Just the best tavern there is for folk like us."
Vorak grabbed the barkeep by the scruff of his hood. "Don't play with me, wizard," Vorak grit his teeth. "Nothing can be smashed. Nothing can be destroyed. You have cursed this place."
Vorak lifted the barkeep and threw him against the wall. He saw the barkeep hit the wall lined with bottle of liquor, and then drop to the ground. But no bottle moved, and as the barkeep stood back up, he straightened out his top and chuckled.
"I assure you," the barkeep continued. "It's not quite what you think."
"Then what is it?" Vorak barked.
The barkeep let out a long exhale, as if he had to explain this so many times he was taking the time to think of a new way to explain, just to keep himself entertained. "Let's start with this," the barkeep began. "What's the last thing you remember before arriving to this tavern?"
"Being in battle," Vorak didn't hesitate to answer. "Our armies were smashing all of your kind. Hundreds of men slaughtered in the fields."
"And then what?" the barkeep continued.
Vorak thought for a moment. "There was a little one," he continued. "One of those ugly, small creatures with the large, hairy feet."
"Halfling," the barkeep interrupted.
"That's it!" Vorak cried. "Me and some of my orc brethren spotted a Halfling, and we began stalking it."
"Did you kill the Halfling?" the barkeep asked.
"Of course!" Vorak yelled.
"Did you, really?" the barkeep continued.
"Well…" Vorak hesitated. "Not right away. The Halfling spotted us and began throwing rocks at us. But then we crushed him!"
"I see," the barkeep nodded. "And you specifically remember crushing this Halfling, you remember crushing him, or driving your blade into him?"
"Um…" Vorak hesitated. "Yes, of course! The orcs are mighty!"
"Do you really remember?" the barkeep asked.
"Well…" Vorak paused. "Well, I must have. Orcs are mighty! Halflings are small! What else?!"
The barkeep nodded again. "Well, we have a lot of creatures here with similar stories to yours. The dwarf with the red hair, when he arrived, the last thing he remembered was fishing and catching a relatively small fish and throwing to the ground in anger. He didn't remember stepping on the slippery fellow and falling back onto a rock. Or the elf on the far side of the bar? Was adjusting his crossbow. When he arrow wouldn't fire, he started to inspect the stirrup, right at the tip of his crossbow. Sadly, he forgot to remove the bolt before the stirrup started working properly again. I even have a troll outside who got into a headbutting contest with a brick wall and still insists that he won the contest because the brick wall collapsed before he did.
"So you see, you belong here," the barkeep smiled as he poured an ale. He slid Vorak the stein and continued, "Fresh ale. I always remember that no orc ever likes my stout. Hard to come by dwarf blood here, on a count that no dwarf here can actually bleed. I'm rather proud of my stout, though."
Vorak took the stein without a word and took a chair at the table with the red-haired dwarf and the orc with the tied back hair. He sat down, placed his stein on the table, then hunched over looking at each of the creatures he had for company.
"Well," the dwarf began. "What did you in?"
Vorak hesitated, then mumbled, "A hobbit threw a rock at me."
The table was silent for a moment, then the orc began chuckling, then the dwarf, then the entire room was laughing harder than a group of jesters huddled around a campfire.
"No fucking shite!" the dwarf yelled. "A hobbit? I thought the fish was bad. Barkeep! Make sure this boy's stein is never empty. He needs as much ale as he can get!"

Oscar and David Luiz, FC Chelsea
Chelsea 1-0 StokeBournemouth 0-2 LiverpoolMan City 4-2 WatfordSouthampton 2-0 YeovilSunderland 1-0 KidderminsterArsenal 4-0 Coventry
Popular Brazilian Oscar sealed Chelsea's place in the fifth round of the FA Cup, scoring the only goal of the game against Stoke City at Stamford Bridge.
Oscar delivered a brilliant freekick to see off Stoke.
"We played a very good game again. The 1-0 doesn't reflect the quality of our game and the dominance of our game," Mourinho said after the match.
"It's a bit of a contradiction because we played so well but we won with a free-kick. Normally when you play this well you win by scoring some amazing goals from open play. We had some fantastic play, individual choices, and very good collective movements against a team that is difficult.
"The freekick obviously makes us happy because Oscar dedicates some time every day after the normal training session to train on a specific thing. We hit the post twice, [Asmir] Begovic again showed how good he is. We had great shots, fantastic actions, great saves.
"The boys played very well but obviously in the last 10 minutes when we don't score the goal to kill the game everything is open with 1-0. They were direct and tried to put some pressure on us but we controlled the game from the first minute, and I'm happy not just with the victory but also the performance."
Here are some of the fifth-round matches that will take place on the weekend of February 15 and 16:

Olivier Giroud believes it is essential for strikers to be able to lay on assists for their team-mates as well as score goals.
France striker Oliver Giroud was interviewed ahead of Arsenal's upcoming mouth-watering clash with arch-rival, FC Liverpool.
According to Arsenal.com website, the Gunners have enjoyed a superb start to the season, and Giroud is fit and pleased with his four Premier League assists to date.
Giroud played a key role in Jack Wilshere's stunning strike against Norwich and he says helping others to score brings him real satisfaction.
"It is a great thing because the goal was shown all over the world - I am proud of it," Giroud told Arsenal Player," said Giroud. "It is a quality when you are a striker to not always be greedy and when you have a team-mate well placed on the pitch, in a good position, you have to assist him.
"Strikers are judged on their goals but we must also [provide] assists and that is what I try to do: help my team-mates," he continued. "It is easy to play with people like Jack, Mesut, Santi or Tomas - all my offensive team-mates. We have good relationships on the pitch and when we play one-touch football like [against Norwich], it is a pleasure.
"We try to do it in every game, and when we succeed it is fantastic."
"I think technically I had it before, maybe I progressed because we have worked on it a lot in training," he said.
"It is also [down to] confidence. I did well from the start of the season, I had good preparation with the team - instead of last season when I wasn't here from the beginning - and I scored early in the pre-season games.
"I feel really confident, the boss made me feel good and that is why I feel good and try to improve every day. It is all about confidence I think."

Suárez scored twice on his Premier League return following a 10-game ban for biting.
Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers reportedly believes the striker's partnership with Daniel Sturridge could is impressive and perhaps the best duo in the leaguet.
Sturridge, who scored Liverpool's opener in their 3-1 win at Sunderland, also created both of Suárez's goals and Rodgers was delighted.
"I'm not sure there's two better in the league," said Rodgers after the match. "These two can be the best in the country. The two of them looked very bright but they can only get better. Daniel is becoming much more of a team player. They are two very different players.

Gift from Moncton: Mothers' Union at work in Guinea
Caroline Van Buskirk, left, and Balley Bourne look at some of the French and English books collected by St George's Moncton that Mme Bourne will take back to Guinea for both children and clergy in her diocese. (Photo: Sue Careless)
By Sue Careless
THIS PAST SUMMER WHILE BALLEY BOURE from the Republic of Guinea in West Africa was visiting her daughter in Moncton, New Brunswick she received a special collection of almost forty books to take home to her Diocese of Conakry.
St. George's Moncton had collected both French and English language books for Sunday school children and teachers as well as French and English language books suitable for clergy and catechists preparing their congregants for confirmation. This had been a specific request of the Rt. Rev. Jacques Boston, and St George's, set in the bilingual city of Moncton, was happy to help.
Mme Bourne is a leader in her diocesan Mothers' Union. Her group's latest project is to build and equip a rural clinic in Dubreka. The churches hope to pay the wages of the nurses who will staff the clinic. St George's plans to make a contribution to the funding of the clinic.
The Mothers' Union members regularly visit the sick and elderly at home and in hospital and uphold them in prayer. On Saturday mornings the women gather at the hospital first to pray for the doctors and nurses and sing hymns before setting out to visit the patients whose names have been given to them by their parish priests. They often come bearing food and gifts, especially for the maternity and children's wards.
"God does the healing," says Mme Bourne, "using the medical staff," and as volunteer visitors they seek how God would direct them.
Mothers' Union in Guinea is also active in encouraging higher education for girls and in delaying early marriage, a common cultural practice in the country.
Guinea is a predominantly Islamic country, with Christians representing only 10 percent of the population. French is the official language. TAP

Question about Seagate (ST3300601U2-RK) (ST3300601U2RK) 300 GB Hard Drive
There is no power showing to the external hard drive, when connected to cable the green light on the power supply lead/ black box flashes, but the drive will not start?? When you disconnect the power supply cable from the hard drive the green light on the power supply lead/ black box remains constantly on (as it always used to be when in operation).
Is this a problem with the cable/ power supply or the hard drive??
The drive is about 15months old?
thanks, sanyu
Posted by sanyu on
Its not worked, theres no difference when i tried a new USB cable!!!
The hard drive has a seperate power supply cable, and when you remove the cable from the back of the hard drive the green light on power supply box (unit that converts 240v to 12v) remains constantly on like any normal power supply unit/ cable. However as soon as its connected to the hard drive the light starts to flash!! There is no evidence that the hard drive is getting power as it will not switch on?? is there something wrong with the cable/ supply or part of the hard drive?? what would have caused such a thing to start happening??
I havent tried openig case as thought that would be risky!!! not sure how to either as it seems well sealed and cant see how it could be opened without damaging the casing!! what do you suggest???
I Have The Same Problem, I Have The Seagate 7200.10 External Out The Case And tried Placing It In A Standard Pc Tower, The Tower Wont Power Up, So I Will Buy Another Hard Drive he Same Model And Swap The Controll Boards And Try And Transfer All My Dater
Usb cable provides power to your hard drive.
try to use new cable.
hopes it works.
pls. confirm
Posted on Jan 30, 2008

ill give you the page directed to the manufacturer for this. we both wont take the risk. right? click on this link:
able you to download software for diagnosis of the product.
good luck. mwah!!!!

Visited here today. There's a small tumulus situated just off the main drive up to the big house, and the stone stands just in front of this. It's around 5 feet tall and quite solid. The owner of the house mentioned that it had been excavated 'in the past' and that some cremated remains were found under it.

Re: Why buy Kindling Wood?
Oh dear, what else have I done wrong
Nice dry day yesterday so had a field day in the woods, so much dead stuff after the storms.
Re: Why buy Kindling Wood?
For some strange reason our council has cut down about a two mile length of young trees along a local B road. They are about 2 feet apart and the diameter of the trunks about 6''. Each one still has it's protective plastic ring thingy around the bottom from being saplings - so I've helped pay for them to be planted and now to be cut down....
If I had a proper fire I'd have half a dozen of these away each night on the way home and have free heat for several winters. It's nuts. They also re-surfaced a local road recently and within a month there are paint marks all over it to tell the next company where to dig.....then the council send me an expensive glossy magazine full of the usual tripe and how careful they are being about expenditure. Bunch of idiots. Rant over.
Re: Why buy Kindling Wood?
If you run out of kindling wood and need some in a hurry... you can use corrugated cardboard instead - torn-up boxes you get in the post. You just rip a bit off and roll it up and pop it on top of the paper. That's what we mostly use, since there's hardy any wood hereabouts.
You can also make char-cloth out of old, worn-out cotton clothes instead of using firelighters. I really hate the smell of firelighters. Char-cloth works just as well (if not better) and doesn't pong. Plus it's free!
Re: Why buy Kindling Wood?
We use pallets for kindling... Most years pallets were all I burned. A few yrs ago when my girlfriend moved in here, she began bringing a truckload of pallets home every night.
Needless to say we have a mountain of pallets here. Most I have broken down into pieces and stacked for kindling in a rick about 4x5x30 feet. Plus there are piles of them that the goats use to play on.
I gently told her this year "sweetie, I think we have enough pallets so... You can stop now."
She still sweats when she passes a pile... But they are free she says. How do you pass up free firewood???
The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

Shop Now | Terms & Policies | Shipping | FAQ
Nugget - Field Grade
Released in 1982, the Nugget is a diploid cross between Brewer's Gold and a high alpha-acid male with good storage properties.(USDA65009 X USDA63015M) It is an important high alpha bittering variety in the US as well as Germany. Nugget is a great variety for picking, drying and baling. It has a cluster cone structure that is heavy, tight and moderately long. The lupulin from the Nugget is abundant with a yellow-orange color. High bittering value. Superior plant traits; 20-40" side arms.
- Alpha acids: 12.0-14.0%
- Yield: 1700-2200 lbs/acre
- Maturity: Late – Late August / Early Sept.
- Storage Stability: 70-80% remaining alpha acids
- Aroma: Strong with herbal notes- not citrusy - used mainly for bittering
- Grower notes: In the top 4 or 5 for vigor and yield with large primary bines. Crown buds tend to form high on this variety and buds are more exposed to winter dessication if not covered in areas with inadequate snow cover. If plants are cut too close to the ground in the spring "blind" plants result with no buds and are slow to recover. Mulch or soil cover is recommended to protect high buds over the winter. Shows some resistance to mildews. Prefers more acidic soil types & humic acid.
- Brewer notes: Used to brew beer styles that move away from the American citrus types.

CCSVI Trials in Canada

It will be interesting to see the outcome of the Canadian trials.

While I'm not sold on this I certainly wouldn't mind getting tested to see if I have the condition.
The problem I fear is it will be certainly very limited in phase 1 possibly a dozen or so patients that will be monitored after the procedure and for several months i.e. years before they go to phase 2. I hope they include persons with primary progressive MS in their initial phase 1 study yet I doubt it since most if not all neurologists I know are against this procedure.
Time will tell
PS: did you ever try that program for your photos?

Very intriguing. I'm guarded, yet optimistic.

Honestly I'm not certain where I stand with this procedure. On one hand I think it's great that there is something new yet on the other hand I know at least half a dozen persons who have had the procedure and they haven't shown that much improvement. And that's according to me, I'm certain they would have an entirely different opinion.
I'm disappointed at the length of time it will take before the procedure would be available if the trial is in fact successful. In my estimation we are looking at something that may be available 10 years down the road which is a long time.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed but also keeping a realistic outlook.
Thanks for stopping in and sharing your thoughts.

I had the procedure about 8 weeks ago at Emory hospital in Atlanta, Ga. I would love to give you guys a positive report but I haven't noticed a difference in my progression. The results for the phase 1 trials in America are suppose to be given around December 2011 I'll keep my fingers crossed and hope for the best.
My name is Wes Smith, I was diagnosed with MS October 2001.

I am male age 60, diagnosed PPMS 10 years ago. I have followed CCVSI procedures and results as I hoped to have it myself. However in checking Zamboni's own blog or articles published it seems for PPMS, it is not done generally. One reason, I suspect is that CCVSI is expected to require doing every few years! As such, being age 60 and finding a way to ensure activity or movement to Cardio-Vascular blood flow, I am doing better that way and will no longer pursue CCVSI. I have been pro-active before and was one of those to write Bayer AG when they needed to distribute Sativex. In Cabada we already had medical marjihuana legislation and so I get great pain relief now from Sativex sublingual spray.

Jan -- Michael
Thank you so much for your post I only wish I could contact you to ask you about the new medication you are on.
I have a friend who smokes marijuana to ease the spasticity he has. Believe me I've seen him during one of his attacks and would not want anyone to go through this. Unfortunately in the province of Québec is not recognized or covered so unless a person has private insurance well there's not much they can do.

The Moderator of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana, Rev. Professor Emmanuel Martey has stated that prayers can solve the country's current energy crisis.
According to him, if all religious bodies come together and pray, the crisis would be solved.
'Are you a Christian, a Muslim or a traditionalist? Then pray and see what the miraculous God can do.
'Do you believe in prayers, if yes then let the entire nation pray to witness what God can do…in three months,' Rev Martey said in an interview on Adom FM Friday.
Rev. Prof. Martey has recently come under harsh criticisms by government officials for claiming that he can fix Ghana's current energy crisis popularly called 'dumsor' in three months if he was the President of Ghana.
Ghana is currently reeling under severe power crisis. The country is shedding between 650 megawatts during peak periods and 450 megawatts during off peak periods.
The energy crisis has forced small-scale businesses and industries to lay-off workers and, in some instances shut down.
Authorities of the Ghana Grid Company Limited and the Volta River Authority have attributed the current crisis to low water levels in the Akosombo Dam and the lack of gas to power some of the country's thermal plants.
The Electricity Company of Ghana has, however, assured that the current load shedding will improve soon.
According to them, some projects expected to be completed by the end of the month would improve the situation.

Syndicated Columnist Clarence Page at the DNC Convention
Clarence Page was a bit wistful as we shared a Starbucks in Charlotte. We talked about the Weather Underground and the Bill Ayers drama of the 2008 campaign; Page telling me that he and Ayers were in Grant Park in proximity during Obama's major Chicago victory speech. We talked about 1968 Chicago, head bashing in the same park, and how Ayers and hippies' skulls were cracked by the cops.
These recollections serve as bookends of his four decades in journalism and with the Chicago Tribune.
Columnist Clarence Page, Tribune Washington Bureau, PBS commentator on Jim Lehrer's Newshour, and author, was voluble in his musings about Campaign 2012. He felt the magic of four years ago was long gone and the Democrats are simply in hunker-down, re-elect the president mode.
Page wants everyone to know that David Axelrod was his intern back in the 1970s. "I work that into just about every conversation," he teased.
He also predicted: "This election will be decided by a white, single mother, age 38, who lives in the suburbs of Columbus, Ohio!"
We both spoke about North Carolina and its importance in last cycle's election race for Barack Obama. "Nobody really thought North Carolina would go his way," said Page. "I think some of the win had to do with so many college students," young people and first-time voters. He wondered aloud how this election might go in the Tarheel state.
The issue now is that white, blue-collar, union voters are not going to vote for President Obama, Page believes. He lost them somewhere along the way. It's all about the jobs.
"You know this election and the Charlotte convention sort of hangs like a ghost over elections past," Page said. He may have been quoting a piece in last Sunday's New York Times Magazine which he recommends as "a Hunter Thompson-esque" look at what is going down this year. It is by Mark Leibovich and called "Feel the Loathing on the Campaign Trail."
Page taught at Northwestern University's Medill School of Journalism when I was there in the late 1970s. However, he would put his alma mater, Ohio University, in the top echelons of J-schools. There was some general smack talk about the schools and then banter about how both football programs had come such a long way.
Healthcare, the Republicans claiming Obama is raiding Medicare and Medicaid to fund his Affordable Healthcare law, and how that issue plays were top-of-mind for Clarence Page. "Look, I've just turned 65 and I want to be sure Medicare is there for me, too."

Intelligent Octopus
This has been circulating for a while, but it is a simply amazing view of octopus camouflage in action. You see . . . It's a plant . . . it's a plant . . . it's a plant . . . OCTOPUS! Check out the video, at least the first ten seconds. It's so cool that they change the texture of their skin, not just the color.
And in other octopus news, I think I'm getting a copy of Cowboy and Octopus for Buster (and me) for Christmas. With a title like that, how could you go wrong?

The primary purpose as to why the bed is protected is because it is the provide of the healthy sleep that one will get following the whole toiling at perform or at home.

What we have a fantastic. No matter where visual arts is Valentine's Day right. Come on you gotta have a good day correct hopefully a Valentine's day's one of those days it's hit or miss because if you have somebody. If you're Mariane you got a new relationship longtime girlfriend board from what I. OK you have some money your share. If you don't. Today Sox. All well the only would when I wasn't. In any relationship. In Valentine's Day came around. If first of all just and other data means nobody. But my thought was. Think of all the money I'm sitting there. Well looked out of Christmas. Same way I look at all the money concert. Announcement. I was in my jewelry your flowers your yoga flowers go up to manager Mike flowers in the middle say July. For somebody. Just just a blank C giggles you know you got somebody did it's much police say a little by a dozen roses just it just a walking with a miniature mob. Put a smile on repairs dozen roses are like twelve blocks. Twenty bucks you don't abide doesn't rose today 64 dollars. A future. You grow on special roses. RT are you growing something that we didn't are the special roses in the back. Only for Valentine's Day that we don't know about are they are are they longer stems. They smell better are there beach would bigger passes and better. You know we didn't the ability to you to be able to breathe those roses. To fertilize those roses. Rom anyway no of course it'll supplied millions of the money's. So you don't have somebody today that the money. Enjoy your to. Order out build it yourself and cousins jobs. So you know what I meant to colonize say they special and I am treating me as something there's nobody loves me like I'd they have. Go home watch Olympics you're good. By the way I turn that into a cousins of commercial by accident so war we'll cover that venture a little bit later on the program. But. At a Valentine's Day from radio Joseph and I can be married male couple on the air as we work together are each and every day to you and but what you are cycle that far now we are awarded it will work together every damn day. I don't into the husband wife role here let's be honest put all this every damn day what do you. Some days you sound like that yeah sure a little while since we got and the like a real argument about ad does that. We are the bickering couple. We went to couples therapy and I haven't. 8558308648. Until we are not gonna involve radio Joseph now it's time for buyers sellers and news. World of sports but a lot of people say a lot of things. But does it past the big unit test let's play by yourself. This is the bill Michael's show. For buying orders already are Jody gut. This Myers sells more about projections. I sort of the brewers don't expect. You'll funny guy our go to be in the brewers' rotation come opening day now why do I expect him to be in the rotation come opening day. Bomb. I don't know if I expected to be. Paid it eight Mike over under on your bodyguard who was this twelve wins. No wins and losses out of a pitcher or a little bit overrated. They are overrated OK I think it's one of the more over raises the stakes when it comes to wait pitcher if you can cause it's your money IRL. Mind over and under our projection one's okay I guess season is the best way to put it found. What. What is statistics. You expect out of your money Dan okay. So this year I'm gonna go. We have a four and a half ERA over under receive four point five ERA. I'm gonna say you Vonnie Garret always going to give us. As the brewers fan. Eight winds up. Not a great season for you Bonnie. But that's about ormat. He's gonna get a shot. But pitch well because he's back in some familiar surroundings he feels comfortable. It's kind of a new start for him. But. Since going thirteen and eleven. He in Texas his first year out of the chute he has been terrible. Remember he got traded to Baltimore and then he went to Seattle. And it just it it hasn't worked for him now he's back in a competitive situation. So I'm gonna say a four point five ER 88. Wins on the season may be an 88 record something like that. He has not given us. He has not given you move being the brewers fan. Over 180. Innings in the last couple years he's a matter of fact he's been in 2016 he picks 118 into Baltimore and 130 for Seattle. I'll say 160. Innings. For the Milwaukee Brewers but he will be in the rotation for for TRE a neat record. And a whip of one point six. Is this all under the assumption of the personal insider trading on the fish. This yes. Yes I still think they have something in them something up their sleeve but then they haven't done yet you get if you're a do what you gotta do it now you got to get a guy and like all ahead of them yesterday. Yup. So right now by vetoing money Darren oh that's gonna go home so that is my projection. For you by Garrett will he be the starting rotation I'll walk by that. I'll say he's lucky to make people. Okay by yourselves we shall see you never announcement trains insurance and oldest got a goes in the next on the brewers still sign or trade for a starting pitcher before opening day. I'm going to buy that. I still think they do it it's just the clock is ticking mouth. I don't know how big of a deal or how small a deal it's going to be but the clock is ticking you need to get something done if you're gonna do it so. Calm. Is matter of fact let's say let's say the over under sort of projecting goes isn't. The next week. I think to break the brewers don't make a deal in the next five days they don't make a deal. So ominous in the brewers do make a deal within the next five days. For a pitcher for another arm. Man 0584. Cell. Now just a friendly reminder Brandon Jennings is with the Wisconsin heard how ever. He is not under sole property of the Milwaukee Bucks the Bucs had not had exclusive rights to him. Any team in the NBA they want to give Brandon Jennings a contract an NBA country tuned day. They caught the trucks to not have the rights but buy or sell well. Brandon Jennings will still be eight balk at some point. Yeah the first team to sign him to NBA contract I AM going to us. From a buy that. I'll buy that. Just for the fact we've got some injuries they could probably use them. I would buy that now they got to make a subsequent move roster wise if we do. But I'm going to buy that he becomes a Milwaukee buck yes. And you know like. It may be just something that they do until. You know brought him or whoever comes back good and I I can say yes he will be a Milwaukee. But yourselves. I don't talk about the Bucs game at some point Tyler Zeller and really nice scheme yes he did and he start to come along since being traded over here. Buy or sell Tyler Zeller will be the bucks setter. Starting center by the end of the year. Obama so that now are so that I I don't think he's going to be either starting setter. I think keys. Did a good piece player but he's also while playing some of his numbers. And maybe it's just the fact that he is on at this point in time a winning team. Or team that's you know. Supposed to do some good things sometimes it raises your level of play new scenery things like that but no I I think. He is what he is he's can be a good piece player. Role player if you will. Probably know Arnold and he becomes your starter. I think they're gonna stick with the rotation they have proved he's got a lot of faith in what it is they're doing let's be honest what to doing right now has been working. Awarding nine into. For some like that their last eleven games and your priority threats so now I I I think they stick with you stick with the dance that got you there and actually going to Tyler's. By eight or sell. Last one is Packers son Ryan wood Green Bay press to set to be good piece yesterday just talking specifically about corners and he gave grades keep each corner. Bite or sell to Marius Randall could be the packers' number one corner next year. I'm gonna buy it he could be. Here's the reason why because he did have a successful. The second half of the season released the last six games of the season we know he can play the position. You don't know what you're gonna get king is still old Kevin King is still coming back from shoulder injury he still. Good to kind of pick up where you left off regarding his rookie season. Offers what do they wanna believe you know 8678 games make you a veteran. The Marius Randall has been through the damage he had a really good initial campaign. Terrible second year. Bad beginning it was thirty years Denny kind of rounded things done re gather himself he's got a chip on his shoulder I think he's gonna end up being your number one however. I I preface this by saying it won't be for long because I think if Kevin King does have the tools eventually he's gonna work himself in that role. Before right now the various rebel leader I've got. All all although that's it that's at the roster is right now I still think you got to go out in foreign. A veteran back there you have to add another piece back deuce just might think. They have. That's it with fire sell if father Mike to Minneapolis is still listen to the show right now I'd like his phone number. For insights. OK in the future. Because that was that was a really good call in the past hour he was usual really gap it saw it might if you're listening just call us back and I'd like to get your number off the year if you'd be willing to share that. They know it's part of my job outlook and bonus that saving phone numbers and they can show some better spirits that's the day. Why did I take a quick break come back we got a lot more to to discuss Tiger Woods getting ready to tee it up at Riviera by the way. Are you excited to have Tiger Woods back we'll talk about fast while bombing our own Gary wolf of Racine journal times talked about it they'll draft a little bit later on today as well as fortunate program. They brought you by marsh field clinic health system they fixed me up. Coming back in the game the orthopedic department is fantastic and call me by five MC or so if you have something that's been ailing U. You don't have to live with a you don't have to live with. Maybe that you get jet in and out in as little as a day you heard me right in the schools today so don't live with pain. Egypt simply don't have to call Marshall clinic 855 MC or two or ago. To Marshall clinic dot org it's Marshall clinic dot org mortal might show coming up next. Border to border film film Michael's voice talking network. My football is life. It was just. Very typical about six months I had to be helped out of bed every day is pretty sad when I can't get to the abdomen Nolan had to have a pocket accident it was really bad in the real rough time and I didn't know. This is how pilots and the rest of my life I've been very lucky very blessed to have come out on on the side and I have a chance to talk to you guys and play golf again and do things that I never thought I could bill do. Bozo the words of Tiger Woods a bucket next to the bed because he simply couldn't get out of bed to go to the bathroom. And had to smell. That expects. That's not good. To say it. I looked beat Tiger Woods your living down there Orlando and it gated community. The big Pearl White mansion. You know. Everything is just pristine. Picture him in eland and he's he's his child and they took dead on that I think is Leah. And white car builders something that just missed beautiful beautiful home and everything's clear and stainless steel and white and blue lead in the than just perfect in the background. Brewer step many go stairs and there's this big old bucket right now since. Thanks a bit of yeah sometimes it would behind the world of the rich and famous and you open the curtains you find out it's just like you and me although I've never had a group argument to bed but. Her death death. But Tiger Woods is back says he feels great. And he's ready to play again he's gonna tee it up. At the Riviera. And I guess and it I'd. Is Tiger Woods. His his return. Good for golf I think it is. Answered my own question. What's sauce I I I think it's good for golf but I'll say there's. Until tiger is not only playing but playing good end or relevant golf. Consistently. He can't have one tournament and make her -- he's back. As we've been there done that with him before. For him to be back. He can be competitive in melt one night too with three or four tournaments. To say Tiger Woods news. Is not necessarily tiger. But Tiger Woods is at least. Somebody to pay attention to again because for a while he was a sideshow to golf. People are tuning in to see Tiger Woods played be competitive in the fist pump in the red shirt on Sunday. We'll be torturing him for was to see how far over the corporate hospitality tent he was going to drive it. At comedy Alphonse who was gonna drop a golf course it was kind of like watching a really bad race car driver in the middle of the Daytona 500. That's what it was like watching Tiger Woods. So I think he's very very good for the game of golf but only if he's relevant. Otherwise he's just another guy struggling out there nobody wants to see that. Well. I watched tiger. Just a couple of weeks ago. When he's playing out at Torrey Pines. And that was that was really the first test in this recovery and he played in the Bahamas before that Alice's first competitive round since coming back from X surgery. But he came back at Torrey Pines and does good dead and said. Make the cut stale. Those two things. I don't expect tiger was aware I don't expect mean competition. And Tiger Woods fought through it. He she just made the cut and then he played pretty well Saturday and Sunday and I thought what the most telling thing once. Was the fact that Tiger Woods missed almost every single fairway he was bombing at the book the power is back. The power is gonna be back with tiger. But he sprayed it all over the fairway I think he would like 30% of fairways all week. He's making pots. Tiger pretty good he has to be yes it apart but but but that's the thing. Touring is like three year window for tiger when he's been on and off the golf course. It wasn't just the fact that he was inconsistent with the shots. His putter was dead he could not putt the ball save his life and that's always been tiger would spread embark that's really new. Tiger Woods was not the same guy. The weight he'd played at Torrey Pines making putts all over the golf course he stayed under par. Under par the entire time when he was out there he never had around where he was shooting 7678. ED. Where you're like okay he put a couple of rounds together but the rest is garbage. This was consisting golfer tiger and I think any hit more for her ways Tiger Woods in the competition at Torrey pockets. So. I think now going into Riviera let seeking be a little bit more consistent off the tee continue to be very good around the greens. And go from there. I I think that'll be the biggest thing for him. And hide the other fact bill. People still wanna watch teicher. The galleries at Torrey Pines. They were all over I mean you talk about is front like 1015. Rows of people. Going all the way back following tiger wherever he went on the golf course he had definitely won about one of the bigger galleries. In Nat Turner. People still care about tiger was people still root for Tiger Woods and I think it Tiger Woods can get beckon competitive golf with this field. Of golfers right now it's awesome for the sports to deal. I think it's it's great that he's back again I just wanna see him be relevant. That's my biggest. That's my biggest ambition for Tiger Woods is if you're gonna come back and you're gonna be a I don't think you'd. I think a lot of people are skeptical as to what he can be ever. Even relevant again soul. We shall see whether Tiger Woods actually becomes a relevant again but I said the seeds I I think it's good for the game to have him back. Look I've said this before I'm a stay with it I do not see Tiger Woods winning another her moments in his career. Because there's so much state needs to happen and I don't expect Tiger Woods to be competitive this week at Riviera. I honestly don't expect to meet competitive for the next few months he's got to keep playing tournaments he has to keep sane and healthy and he has to develop more consistency it's it's not easy for guy. To just combat can be great again that's not how it works especially in this day and age where in golf is so competitive and there are so many great golfers out there. Is that another another tiger but there's a lot of golfers. That are capable of winning majors second win majors consistently. Tiger's got a long way to go. And I just if his body starts to break down again he screwed and then he's got to start all over again if he has to go through much more surgery at some. So at that the hill it's still a steep climb. For Tiger Woods but you know Auburn form I'm always were informed. 855830864. Rates will you be watching specifically. To see if Tiger Woods can become. Tiger Woods again. Or at what point do you say you know life. I wait and see on time I think a lot of people are of the week and see but I still think. People attitude and people don't wanna see him take that first went off the tee to see if he hits one down the middle or be sprays it. I think there's a lot of people and the thing what tiger that he's had issues with over the last few years meddling with the injuries but. They put a couple of rounds together but it can't put four rounds together. Well he did that at Torrey Pines right that was the doubles Runnels consistency. I have seen tiger when it comes to just put up good rounds. Running entire term now again like you said he'd missed a lot of fairways. It was not good and he had a bail himself but he did some great shots. On you know under the trees. In the thick in the thick Rauf just to get out via a lot of good up and downs. Able that you know salvaged par at that. Both are good things. But now let's trying get that ball. Back in play let's try to make sure that off the tee you're put yourself in good position to get agreeing regulation and give yourself a chance putt for birdie that that that's what tiger needs and I'll be interest to see what it's like Riviera has to me it's Revere as a tight course a lot like Torrey Pines. So it happens. 855830864. New loans which it dot com total free talk Clinton and charm and by all means do show. We come back to us about basketball Gary wharf overseeing journal times she's going to be joining us we'll talk some boxes they got a nice win last night we'll get an of that discussion. Also coming up ready here from Brian brawn as well in the next hour. We're gonna talk is some NFL draft that's right restart take a look at the NFL draft moving forward for the Green Bay Packers what they may or may not do the needs they may or may not have an ours stay till we are more alike shook a lot of activist. Six clues station strong the bill might school's sports talk now. Michael shot on the though we're glad to have you hopefully. It's Valentine's Day is treating you rather well. 8558308648855. B 30864. In loans which it dot com told free talk line. Buck's got to win last night Johnston have like this more and Norman shot a scheme. Fifteen points fifteen boards three assists. Which audio on edit now you're so be honest nights. 9792 they knock off the hawks. Now eight games over 500. As the Bucs get a win. Talk more about it Gary wolf overseen journal times joining us on the Schneider orange how lying Gary are you doing man. And murdered while it was very sluggish win last night Chris Milton played well. But I I guess other Joseph brought to you what you see different. To be absolutely not a whole lot. I mean there's some weeks our guns when he was. There that are that trapped in the entire as much as they have that are. Being held them more accountable to guard doron they have worked for video notes switch and stuff like that. What overall not really not a lot of difference. So what what his then live the key for this team getting wins as opposed to taking some of the ugly losses they did under Jason Kidd. Well that's a good question there is so focused the you know the players seem happier he's number one don't think they feel. This stressful thing here that your kids in. You know champions and while it's certainly work world looser group work more on. But you know normally bet that the reaction when there's a coaching change that most reporters. Were more than happy to CGQ. Jettisoned in you know when when when there's a coaching change is usually pretty. While in the win or at least for the first couple weeks. And or. Lots of course than than healthy immensely by. Of the sought to partners schedule and the timing was absolutely perfect cordial Ponte. Is it is it just as simple as a schedule agreed to we are I guess my next question is what do I expect when his team starts playing stiffer competition to look for them to kind of falter back to what we saw. Early on. Or do we because of the bulls say the swelling confidence that they're gaining from this particular Porsche Porsche their schedule. Does this then turns things around for them desist just all start to come together in the eastern do you guys back open. Well I think good competitor and their plate belt really cool when he. Did woody bear all right now but. I looked at the schedule booked for May think six in the pursuit he. After the all star break are against teams that would be in the playoff in I think that's one at that juncture. What we have a better idea what you were gonna clean my books are. Yet they got to they've got one more they got against Denver and then you've got the all star weekend and then they don't play again until Friday. Were they play what and it. Right exactly because they don't play until Friday in Detroit or in in Toronto I'm not mistaken right to come right out of the chute Toronto. Yeah he's so they're gonna have two up he you know never Utley is one of the most improved team yet. That they're playing good basketball. In you know we're talking about. You know waiting until after the all star break to find out how Auxerre I don't care. Armitage gains in you know real litmus test Google books we can look like what is certain. At Denver's Syria pretty good team. When Denver comes in town I expect hopefully because the weather's going to be better crowd should be better a little more into what winning is certainly helped. Column in winning at home is usually when at home and look good doing it. I think you could do nothing would bolster you know people warning commands CU we start to get a little bit of an energy applause. Down the Bradley senator. So I have looked I just think that this team desperately needs this win going is forced conference and update ten and two since the fire your head coach going into the all star break and sitting up pretty well. Is force the standings goes you'll have yourself pretty solidified. And that deficit if you're battling for fifty or so to speak. You'll look pretty good doing Asia a lot of confidence coming out of the all star break and well rested to Nstar pitchers on your guys back. Well absolutely and you don't support Parker's only gonna get better at the right goes you know so. From that standpoint it's going to be Q did you know stalled over should be coming back. So you know there's definitely a lot of encouraging things to look forward to next season. Tie with a weighted right now for the fourth spot in the east our military wall for the Rashean journal times give me give your thoughts and your board because I think. For as long as he's been out for many injuries disease had he just he picked there were left off it just looks really really good. Did you see that and by the way last night yes. I'll might do this yes I think I think you know what I'm a member of yeah Parker and we have to school in Michael. Well the other thing is that are on that side yes you wanna make sure that he came down he was OK but on the opposite side. When he got hurt for the second time my thought was that explosiveness was gone. And he showed it last night. I agree you know some of the medical people only. Tori will do scooter even better than he was before certain tree canopy now. They hit it I had some reservations about that that I talk to mark our league who was region punished until you told him including. And now want to believe in peace and security now that are at four. While we were talking earlier today about some of the help that they shooter should not yet do you think Brandon Jennings amounts steady thing in and makes his team or do you think it's just a safety guarantee somebody else goes down. You'd meet Olivia took you five point gain helmet. I don't know what deployed a little played forty. How would you how would just give a submissive share the basketball move the ball and on the floor allow others to score. You know what it is delicate balance an crackdown on corporate doesn't have sold out with. Thank you grandkids adventure or you're really grew and was able. We saw home. At the peak of this career you know the first round. And he wasn't very good because what executives who wrote this he wait so. Again not so sure what could some sort of all of vote. Is it just so somebody just like I said just a safety net just in case. Yeah I guess of safety safety seats. I need to linger there were other. What were. Picked up a subscriber. That there must be obviously unity behind the scenes look at recent court. Call one icons of the box and pick it up you know the big man obviously. Do you get and then what we've seen Zeller played pretty well you have pretty nice game last night. Thought maker has been somewhat of an enigma because everybody expected him take the next step but he really hasn't hence in his. Really solidified that starting role at times played well what he's been consistent I guess the best way to put regarding his game does Tyler Zeller work his way and that's starting lineup. If your books and you hope that. Yeah the note now up against Tyler and is he did a terrific you know last night traffic I put you know he's he's below average player. I mean good bounces around that was thirteen fourteen. In there's a reason for. You know hopefully I'm baker. Just keeps getting better I mean god can really help of skiing. It is a question especially mark he remembers shooting standpoint. I leave people out of the EU recorder which he normally does. He can be a knockdown shooter there and that's one of the things books that we need. Well what what does he need to do to take that next step we all thought he would get better. And he just hasn't he's looked off or almost two times in doing that. Yeah I did it you know with you the first wanted to see some of that. That was serious crimes could you grass but that he's shown signs recently were coming around. In I think Rick sector's confidence and that he gets of captain going up and I think you'll be fine but again and they. And he just perimeter shooting because. Yassin and ethical way whatever you want blood vessels can get away with a every once Littleton and the wind. And certainly Suvari. So what looked at penetrate somebody's gonna have to help plow it into more often that it will be on deck. By the way I don't know if you noticed when it pride these interviews and posting comments and such I've not heard him use the words were young wants it. Beautiful. I just I think he heard everybody else say the same damn thing saying you can't say that anymore. You know it was really get all the every. To a lot of BA people. They thought decency by saying that was taking bill's chapter chat course. You know hey we need veterans. In you know I think Joseph prompted coach he's got to listen to us say that even if people leave that you know. But yet you're actually right yet mention it on and hopefully more. For Jason Kidd because we all know that he had a bulb friendship with the last treason evens and as such does she yet another opportunity coach. Well he's certainly it would. Two Kovalev and wind solar since the departure. Isn't he's convinced he can be coaching next season. Olympia they're convinced start to. Know several people around the league they're illegal they don't like to get work coach yeah. And then there's been you know rumors spill out of are we going cheeks CNET. Into attracted to officials of Phoenix organization and the Serb court go Michael Dell Mel. They haven't they listen millions. Yes so. So you don't but again you know kid it's got a name you've got a reputation you know also. You know that he Robert servers the Croat then go to UC sun and in the year. He does what did anybody he does what you want and want to get me to give them because. They go cassava is always Gary we'll talk again next week okay.

Call 4144 part 54451. He. How to capture a lot of imagination last march on white. Bears. In the midst of the television appearances on radio hits. He had huge amounts of fans everybody. Clamoring for him and then that the questions begin about. Him struggling to reconcile what he had done a Wednesday morning at throw arguably the greatest raw and have quite snowboarding history with what he had done in previous years. And that is he's got a a general sexual. Harassment lawsuit. That so worries worries settled out of court. And he has. I guess my question is this. He's got this going all. Against the drummer of a a bit okay. Thought she against him by the way not vice Versa. So in today's day and age of slow a level of sensitivity. Were things I think all the way back to the bill Riley stuff which really got opened the door Bill O'Reilly just you know kind of blew the lid off of what goes on behind closed doors and payoffs to women that. Complain that men. Treat them poorly and an half. Have taken advantage of their position. For sexual favors and basically abuse. And Shaun White is celebrated. Last night after an incredible run. I don't watch if you just watched it the physical colony of it the ability of it to the F lettuce is a fantastic. But immediately after that you come back to reality you say you're cheering for a guy who for all intents and purposes. Kept everything behind closed doors and several harassment lawsuit. A sexual morass development in the lawsuit and people are saying. We should be celebrating his. I I just personally watching it. I appreciate the raw be atlantis' in the moment. The other aspect of it is how many times have we seen somebody in whatever sport it happens to be that is had something go wrong. In their life that they chose to do. But yet they come back and score a touchdown and a home run scorer goal the people are still cheering for. Sometimes you cheer for the moment maybe the name on the front of the Jersey rather than name on the back. But it isn't let's be honest it is an until. The Ray Rice video punches you in the face that you go all my god that's terrible. Because if we used to get sexual harassment is such a sanitized form. Okay sat sexual assault is not rape. It's it's sexual harassment. Okay did he do he makes some snide comments in front or her that she took too far too serious. I mean that's the way met people think about it. When you talk about people that are considered quote heroes the more you do in the athletic world the more fame issue are. The more. Positive. You bring. For what rivalries in the more leeway we give you. You know if he was a nobody who came in tenth place and was real low and a total poll there are on the Olympic team you go what I've what a third day he's out there anyway glad he's gone. Put your gold medalist Matt we get a lot of leeway unfortunately. But how much should we or should we have not have cheered for what Shaun White did I think is something legitimate you have to look within yourself. We kind of follow up on that coming up the next hour. Also Matt Miller NFL draft analyst for the Bleacher Report he's going to be joining us coming up the next hour as well stay tuned for the white show next. Wisconsin one. Bill Michael's sports talk.

TIME Magazine, May 29, 1944
Unnecessary and Undesirable?
Robert Ramspeck. . . chairman of the powerful House Civil Service Committee, recently took a look at a bill which. . . General Henry Harley Arnold, has been trying to shove through Congress.
The bill would make the Women's Airforce Service Pilots a part [of the] Army Air Forces. [The] committee . . . found out. . . of the 1,313 women who have gone to WASP training schools, only 541 have graduated; 281 have flunked out; the rest are still in training. . . .
Wasted Manpower. Hap Arnold's argument has been that there is a serious aviation manpower shortage. . . . From unhappy C.A.A. flying instructors and C.A.A. trained personnel came another story. . . . They are available to ferry planes by the thousands. General Arnold. . . held fast for his WASPs.
The Ramspeck Committee . . . found . . . some 6,000 instructors alone who could be trained for the work the WASPs are doing in about half the time and at half the cost. Furthermore, the A.A.F. could utilize its returned combat pilots, as the Navy does, for noncombat flying. If a manpower deficit really exists, the committee found, it is "due largely to a failure to utilize existing personnel."
Startling and Invalid. . . . the militarization of. . . WASPs is not necessary or desirable; the present program should be immediately and sharply curtailed. . . .
Note: The WASPs
were established in August 1943. The order for deactivation of the WASPs
was issued October 3, 1944, effective December 20, 1944.
The Women's Airforce Service Pilots (WASPs) was organized during World War II, to fill the labor shortage by ferrying aircraft for the Army Air Forces. They also trained gunners, and tested new planes, to mention a few tasks.
The program started as two separate organizations. Nancy Love headed the Women's Auxiliary Ferrying Squadron (WAFS) and Jackie Cochran was in charge of the training school. In 1943, the two groups were merged to become the WASPs under Jackie Cochran with Love remaining in charge of the women working for Air Transport Command.
The women were trained to fly all the Army's aircraft, as well as tow targets for gunners, test drone craft, and one pilot even participated in the fledging jet program.
They had to meet standards
higher than men and have high school diplomas. It was important the project
not fail through inexperience.
Although the WASPs had only Civil Service status, they trained under military discipline. Trainees flew in "zoot suits"; (ill-fitting coveralls, ordinarily made for male pilots), and had tan slacks and white shirts for a dress uniform. Eventually, the Santiago Blue uniform was adopted, to be worn only by graduates. Of the twenty five thousand applicants, one thousand eight hundred and thirty were accepted, and one thousand and seventy four earned wings. The original seven month course included one hundred eighty hours of ground school, and one hundred eighteen hours of flight training. These young women advanced from light aircraft to piloting every model in the Air Corps inventory at that time. WASPs ferried planes, towed targets, flew tracking missions, and did smoke laying. They flew simulated bombing missions, did radio control, searchlight strafing, gave instrument instruction, and flight-tested aircraft among other duties. Thirty eight WASP died in service to their country. (See page 6)

Chiang Saen
Chiang Saen City Wall
- Chiang Saen was settled in prehistoric times but its history commences with the settlement there by the Tai in the 14th C. The town lies on the Mekong River and was and is a riverboat trade centre. The first Tai settlement was near Mai Sai in 1230 and from here in 1239 Mangrai was born, later to establish a dynasty to rule Lan Na for 300 years. Mangrai's grandson, King Saen Phu established the city of Chiang Saen in 1329. This city ruled over both sides of the Mekong until it was dominated by the Burmese (as was the rest of Lan Na). It was a Burmese stronghold until 1804 when it was recaptured by the Tai. The original city was surrounded by 2 by 1 kilometers of walls andf a moat but on the orders of King Rama 1 was deserted and destroyed as a military strategy to deal with the Burmese.
- Wat Pa Sak. This Wat is reputed to have been constructed in 1319 and has Mon, Sukhothai and Pagan style features
- Wat Phra That Chedi Luang built in 1331 and enlargened in 1515
- National Museum Chiang Saen for its collection of Chiang Saen bronzes
- the ancient City fortifications including the city walls and moat
the Mae Kong River landscapes
Wat Chedi Luang Chiang Saen
Inorder to understand what to see at Chiang Saen (or should we say '' what can not be seen '') one needs to understand the history of Chiang Saen and its destruction and subsequent resettlement.
- On Phaholyothin Road and next to the Chiang Saen Museum and close to the Eastern Gate of the fortified walls and moat are the ruins of Wat Phra That Chedi Lunag (Chiang Saen).
- The chedi (seen in the pictures here) is 58 meters tall. It was constructed in 1331 and modified in 1515. Inside the Wat grounds can be seen the foundations of other earlier constructions also made of brick and the original viharn which today has a metal fabricated temporary roof under which is a Buddha image and temple.
