Gentle Vets Pet Hospital is happy to be providing Puppy Kindergarten Classes. A properly socialized dog is a delight to live with. The problem with dogs that have not had proper socialization is the leading cause of death in dogs today – euthanasia due to aggressive behavior. This is really unfortunate since almost EVERY puppy can be properly socialized.
However, it is essential that this socialization takes place before 16 weeks – during a puppy's impressionable period. Drs. Edhlund and their staff have extensive experience in behavior modification in dogs, having worked for years with Dr. Rolan Tripp, founder of Animal Behavior net. ( http://www.animalbehavior.net/Bio/Founder.htm ). These classes are held each Tuesday evening between 6 and 7PM. These classes are absolutely free to our patients as we want you to have a delightful life with your dog. Puppy kindergarten is a great way for puppies to learn proper social behavior in a safe environment. All puppies attending class will be under Gentle Vets veterinary puppy care so we will know that they are healthy.
Puppy kindergarten is much like people kindergarten. Puppies and people are brought together to meet each other. Good behavior is rewarded while aggressive behavior results in reprimands – usually simple time-outs. We also will train techniques to pets and their families for simple behavior like sit and down and no-bite. After an hour of guided play time everyone goes home with a smile on their face. As everyone who has brought a puppy to Gentle Vets knows, we go to extensive lengths to make sure you puppy grows up mentally as well as physically healthy!
For those who have a dog which did not get proper training as a puppy, we offer further behavioral assistance. Dr. Joe's calming presence has made many a person call him "the dog whisperer." His calm and assuring attitude with aggressive dogs has brought many a highly aggressive dog to become his buddy – often in a matter of an hour or two. We work closely with Dr. Tripp and local trainers on problem behaviors of many kinds – but we sure prefer to correct the issue before it becomes a problem. If you have a new puppy or know someone who does, make sure you get them to puppy kindergarten to get them a great start on life!

Lettres à Zerty
Initial situation, disruptive element, a succession of incidents, resolution, final situation – Duet 2015, duration 25 min
Show suitable for all audiences, originally commissioned by Le CDC Le Gymnase and Le CDC Le Cuvier and devised for young audiences.
Two virtuoso breakdancers are seen as they set in motion and dart away from each other amid fleeting moments of contact and an interplay of moves choreographed for two. Their fluid movements are deliberately fragmented as their bodies go into stop-motion and are thrown into darkness, which thereby interrupts the action in mid-flow. Our eyes are filled with powerful images, inviting us to reflect upon the different kinds of relationship that might exist between the two dancers. And yet images appear, change shape and switch places without really forming a logical progression of events. Are these images designed to tell us a story? What to do with this information and the apparent lack of narrative formed by a succession of events linked by a logical chronology? Once upon a time… Lettres à Zerty proposes another view of humanity, a vision of the world, wherein events are treated in a non-hierarchical, indiscriminate fashion.

The end of your Camino journey is not Finisterre but three more kilometers to the Cape. If you made it here from Santiago in three days, another day may be needed to go the final distance to this medieval End of the World.
Pilgrimage is an archetypical experience, which means it calls to people across time and traditions. Whether we make an inward or outward journey, pilgrimage is essentially a series of practices for being fully present to life in the midst of joy and struggle. These practices help to cultivate freedom within to respond to God's calling. ~ Christine Valters Paintner
Finisterre, or Fisterra in Gallego, the local Galician dialect, means "Land's End" in Latin. Indeed, for most pilgrims, this Cape, or Cabo Fisterra, is their journey's end.
On your final approach on day three on the Camino Finisterre, you walk along side the amazing and lengthy Langosteira Beach, shown in the photo below. The Camino path enters the town at the café bar, Tiro do Cordel.
The Camino path is to the right on the photo below, on the other side of the grassy bank, and the Tiro do Cordel is the large brown building closest to the beach at the bottom of the hill. Stay close to the shore as you approach town.
Stay on the sidewalk and walk right on by the bar and go up the hill to the cross called the Baixar Cross. You have officially arrived in the main part of town when you reach this cross, seen to the extreme left of the photo below, that looks like a pole.
After the hard three days on the Camino Finisterre, my Camino partner and I decided to hang out in Finisterre for a day, and take our time walking the final three kilometers to the Cape, maybe even waiting to go until sunset that day.
We walked around town, shopping, hanging on the beach and just discovering the place.
Along the waterfront, we stumbled into a mirador (look-out) on the roof of a building. This mirador was a sort of mini-park, and afforded a glorious view of the harbor.
To find this mirador, find the Rúa Patres (or Calle Patres depending on the map) near the waterfront and you won't miss it.
The mirador is a glorious place to hang out on if the day is fine. Here Shelly contemplates the beach, the bay and the harbor of Finisterre.
Unfortunately, the half day that we allotted to be on the beach turned out to be very windy and mostly blew sand into our faces and onto our feeble attempt at a picnic. This photo, of the beach below, was taken on our arrival, the day before, when we were first heading into town, when the weather was much nicer.
If you are there in fine weather, it is indeed a glorious beach, as seen below, looking back eastward from the town. The Camino Finisterre is just to the left of the photo along the grassy dunes.
As the weather turned more questionable, I decided it might be a good idea to head on out to the cape to get what photos I could before I could get no decent photos at all. My Camino partner reluctantly agreed to come along. We were hoping to spend the majority of the day on the beach, but I was too afraid of hard rain to spoil our plan for seeing the Cape.
We headed out on the main road through town, the Rúa Alcalde Fernandez for the three kilometer trek to Cabo Finisterre.
My partner, who seemed unmotivated to do the walk, lagged behind, as you can see from photo above. Yes, that's her down the sidewalk at a distance. I waited for her to catch up and I kindly re-iterated to her that she did not have to tag along if she didn't want to. I was perfectly capable of making the trek to Cabo Finisterre (Cape Fisterra) alone.
I wandered around the lovely 14th century church, the Iglesia de Santa María das Aeras, below. Unfortunately, it was closed when I hoped to have a look inside. It was a regular pilgrimage stop, for the medieval pilgrimage traveler.
With the rain ever threatening, I increased my pace, but my partner slowed hers. Soon she was out of sight. I accepted this and focused on my surroundings.
The view below was along the path to the lighthouse at the cape. I say "path" with tongue-in-cheek, because if there is a path at all, it is a narrow use-path along the highway, informally created by pilgrims. Mostly, you just have to walk on the highway itself. With so much traffic on this popular road, it is not so walker friendly. However, The Way afforded wonderful views of the sea almost the entire distance.
The first glimpse of the lighthouse at the end of the Cape was a much anticipated sight! Here is my fuzzy zoomed-in photo of it below as I spied it from afar.
I started to feel the first stirrings of the excitement that all pilgrims feel when they know they are getting oh-so-close!
As Christine Valters Paintner reminds us in the quote at the beginning, as modern pilgrims, we are indeed one of many, as we melt into the archetypical experience of our "arrival."
Just as these feelings stirred in me, I stumbled onto the famous pilgrim statue along the road. I would love to have a penny for every photo that someone shot of this statue. I would be a millionaire!
Of course, as you enter into the final steps toward the extreme end of the Cabo Finisterre, you find this cruceiro greeting you. It is as if the cross exclaims, "pilgrim, you are near your journey's end."
Here is where the sun set in medieval times on the known world - across the Atlantic Ocean. And here I am, at just that place.
Across from the modern cross, is this tourist building in the photo below, lower right, with restrooms and souvenir shops. In the distance is a café, where just beyond you can see the top of the lighthouse, or "faro" (Gallego and Spanish).
As you stroll towards the lighthouse building, you finally see the zero kilometer marker. Here I am, with a big smile on my face. A kind tourist snapped this photo of me, since a selfie seemed inappropriate.
The entrance to the lighthouse building is shown here on the left photo, and it contains a nice museum. You can also get your Santiago to Finisterre Compostela in this building.
The lighthouse, on the right, below, is the view from the other side, as you look up the hill, back toward the town. It is the view you would see if you were traveling by boat around the Cape.
As you head down the hill, past the lighthouse, you stumble onto this bronze boot sculpture, below.
According to the Confraternity of St. James, "Pilgrims Guide to Finisterre," published in Jan 2009, this bronze sculpture is in memory of a pilgrim who drowned here in the 1990's. I can't verify this. Most web references just say it is to commemorate pilgrims who journey here.
Whatever the case may be for the bronze boot, it is a lovely addition to the coast and will aid your reflection on the miles you have traveled to be here.
I took a moment then to reflect on my own pilgrimage travels. I took my time, trying to capture this moment in a photo as well.
Scattered over the rocky ledges on the cliff tumbling into the sea for several hundred feet are the remains of the many fires where pilgrims have burnt their boots and their clothes.
This is a symbolic gesture that represents their desire to rid themselves of all they no longer need. This is usually done at sunset.
My first desire, upon seeing this cliff, was to run down to the edge of the sea. Not sure why I had that desire, but I ended up only going about halfway. It was a long way down!
I did not build my own cleansing fire. I was not there at sunset and I did not feel the need. I am not sure why of this either. I just noticed my energy and the energy of all those who had done so. This was certainly a special place.
A very simple cross monument was built on the cliff and a very large fire pit on the rock at its foot. Lots of shell mementos were offered here as well.
Here is a "Spirit Rock" with lots of cairns built in honor of the sacredness of this place.
Yet another Spirit Rock with a rudimentary twig cross.
A monument of discarded boots beside the remnants of yet another fire.
And finally, towers where pilgrims discard their clothes by tying them to the rungs.
Another stormy view of the simple cross monument, with a view westward across the bay.
When I saw my Camino partner later on, she was huddled into this niche in the rock, by the sea. I waved, snapped her photo and moved on. I felt the need to leave her alone with her own cleansing process.
As for me, I am not sure what this experience meant. My Camino was on the Inglés and it was a short one. I did not want my pilgrimage to come to an end.
We never did see the sunset at Cabo Finisterre. It just wasn't meant to be. I was as disappointed as Shelly.
However, the one thing I know, is that disputes along the Camino de Santiago most certainly was not new to the two of us! The inward journey always accompanies the outer journey on your Camino. And so it is. This also, I shall include in my experiences. The struggle along with the joy.
As it was, this was not to be the last leg of our Camino. We were heading on to Muxía, and the intimacy of its place and its legends. More joy was ahead! Follow along to my Camino from Finisterre to Muxía.

Prices from January 2013:
1 day rises from £1 to £2
1 week rises from £5 to £10
1 year rises from £45 to £90
The first 30mins are still free.November 7, 2012 at 12:14 pm #85640
Christ. This is going to put a real dent in their usage.
£1 vs a bus/tube… great value… £2 vs a bus/tube… meh
Only the dedicated will keep using them.
Is THIS encouraging cycling in London. I'm disgusted. The Boris Bikes should be part of a long-term strategy to normalise cycling, not a potential cash cow.November 7, 2012 at 2:12 pm #85641
£2 for unlimited hires within 24hr period vs. 1x bus journey @ £1.40 or 1x tube journey @ £2.10
Keeping the access fees as round numbers makes sense.
My understanding is that the bikes were always intended to get people used to cycling in town & then move on to buying/using their own bike.November 7, 2012 at 2:25 pm #85642
I have a annual membership, but I often use the bikes just ONCE per day. Sure, it's "unlimited" in 24 hours but that doesn't mean that I actually NEED to do more than one trip.
The barriers to cycling in London are already so high that anything acting as a discouragement should be fought against.November 7, 2012 at 7:34 pm #85643
From a pragmatic perspective, now is the time to buy annual membership: going going quick!
The fare increase is a shame: it was inevitably forthcoming but not to this extent. Let us not forget that the scheme is losing money: a fraction of the £50m from Barclays has been paid; expenses have overrun; and not enough people go over 30 minutes. From what I understand, the scheme is basically subsidised by those paying their taxes!
Fortunately for us, the Barclays scheme can still be a cost effective option: £2 a day works out cheaper than the other public transport options (so long as you keep each ride under 30 minutes.) So in some respects us Boris Bikers, and Barclays bank, are still winners
I guess the greater lesson one could take from this fortunately trivial disappointment would be to Think, Remember, then VoteNovember 13, 2012 at 5:44 pm #85644
Still seems like a very good deal to me. I'm not rich, by any means, but an extra £45 a year won't get noticed. There must be some very skint people riding boris bikes for that to make much difference.November 14, 2012 at 11:23 am #85645
The girl told me to phone up on Jan 1st to get the 'old' rate for another year (mine expires early Jan anyway).November 15, 2012 at 5:00 pm #85646
Absolutely awful idea to double the costs. Have written about it more on my blog if anyone's interested:
http://twowheelsgood-fourwheelsbad.blogspot.co.uk/2012/11/doubling-of-boris-bike-fares-in-2013.htmlNovember 15, 2012 at 8:34 pm #85647
I'm in two minds about this. I don't mind handing over more money, if it means the service will improve (and there is big room for improvement, especially in redistribution after 5pm since the expansion). And because the service is still loss making, it was inevitable that we'd have to pay more (it's unfair for non-bike users to subsidise us).
My concern is that it takes bike hire off the radar of uncommitted users. It puts it just that little bit further out of reach.
And don't forget, very very few people use Barclays Cycle Hire as their only means of transport. For most, it's an additional expense on top of the cost of an Oyster card. It's a luxury.
If it does end up dissuading users, we'll all lose out.November 16, 2012 at 10:09 pm #85648
Got the email and was quite surprised. I don't really mind a bit of a price hike, but doubling is a bit ridiculous..
I'm sure causal users, including a lot of tourists, will still use it even if it is £2. It's all about the gimmick and stuff. But for a student like me, who uses the bikes for my daily 15-minute commute to uni, I might as well get my own bike for £90? No fuss to look for spaces to park and pick up bikes.
When it was £45, I traded it off for the convenience of the hire. At £90, I am seriously considering getting my own bike when my membership runs out.November 18, 2012 at 2:26 pm #85649
I understand where you are coming from @Chungcyk although if you can renew before January then you are in a good position. Barclays bikes are fantastic when they work, sadly there are often problems of availabiity and rotation – why they dont leave docks half full is beyond me.
I use the bikes as a luxury not a necessity and for £90 you can purchase a high quality traditional town bike. You just have to take into account security, parking, and maintenance. Still far cheaper and more effective than bus, tube, and car when in London. But if you are happy with the current setup, which will hopefully improve given the extra cash, then the extra hassle ought to be a consideration.November 19, 2012 at 4:04 pm #85650
Personally I reckon the principle of doubling hire charges is pretty outrageous. For me, it's not necessarily the cost itself, but rather the seeming lack of any clear justification for doing so – or transparency about the overall scheme finances. If it is the case that TFL grossly underestimated the costs of running the scheme, and it loses massive amounts of money, why not just say so? Maybe I am thinking about this the wrong way, but I would assume the capital costs of the installed docks/bikes are now hugely lower than the initial roll-out?
I'd like to know how much Serco are charging to run the service and how much that fee is going up in 2013. Is the increase to fund the scheme expansion maybe? (theoretically not as the expansion should generate additional income too). Does the scheme income really not cover the running costs????
Wrt the charges, the annual fee now offers by far the best value, even more so than before. However, surely would it not have made better sense to increase this by a smaller % (say 50%?) to encourage greater uptake of the annual fee. Or perhaps offer some discount to Oyster card season ticket holders? Will there be any guarantee to keep future increases to a reasonable rate? I doubt it…November 24, 2012 at 10:28 am #85651
My annual access period expires in March next year. I've just logged into my account and it appears that I can buy a new 1 year annual access period now for £45, before the price increase in the new year. I guess that this new access period would then be activated once my current one expires in March, giving me a further year for £45.
Does anyone know if this is correct or not?November 26, 2012 at 10:52 am #85652
I would also like to know if this is true.
Mine expires early January so would be very annoying if it auto-renews just days after the price change!December 4, 2012 at 11:48 am #85653
The easiest way to do it is to take out a new annual subscription now (with a new key) and then cancel the old one before the term ends (and make sure you switch off auto-renew).

In what sounds like the plot of a dumb Hollywood blockbuster, a Chinese paleontologist walking through a market in Myanmar last year was offered a chance to buy something incredible - the feathered tail of a 99-million-year-old dinosaur. So when dinosaurs and birds evolved barbules, they unlocked a palette of brilliant colors. The sample also contained ferrous iron, remnants of blood haemoglobin from the dinosaur's soft tissue.

The third edition of our "Annual Salon of UK-based Romanian Artists" exhibition showcases the vibrancy and formal diversity of an ambitious creative medley: Alexandra Larion, Călina Lefter, Ana Maria Morar, Doina Moss and Adeline Timiş.
Alexandra Larion is a Romanian artist living in London. After having pursued a Bachelor's Degree in Plastic Arts at the Art and Design University of Cluj-Napoca, she did a Master's at the Krakow Academy of Fine Arts. Alexandra is currently collaborating with the IAGA Contemporary Art Gallery from Cluj-Napoca. The artist exhibited her works in various international exhibitions such as "Just Beneath the Skin: Investigations and Revelations" (Poland, 2016), "Identities" (2016, Bucharest), Parallax Art Fair (London, 2017). Currently Alexandra is studying Graphics at the Westminster University in London.
Călina Lefter was born in the Republic of Moldova. She finished her studies in 2002, at the "Nicolae Grigorescu" University of Arts in Bucharest, and straight after her graduation, Călina became member of the Romanian Artists' Union. The artist moved to Milan in 2008, exhibiting her pieces in different Italian galleries. Some of the highlights in her career are: "Expo Milano" (2015), "Affordable Art Fair" (2013), "After East" (2010). At present, she is living in London, where she is exhibiting at different galleries.
Ana Maria Morar graduated from the "Babeş-Bolyai" University of Cluj-Napoca, where she studied communication and public relations. She later moved to the USA, where she got into the arts. Ana-Maria studied sculpture with Leonid Lerman at the "Art Students League" in New York, and is a candidate in the MFA sculpture programme at the NYSS (The New York Studio School of Drawing, Painting and Sculpture), under a Jane Chace Carroll Scholarship. She was the recipient of a Marion R. Netter Merit Scholarship in 2015 and, since then, her works have won awards every year at The Phyllis Harriman Mason Gallery, New York.
Doina Moss is an alumna of both the "Ion Mincu" University of Architecture and Urbanism (Bucharest), and Sotheby's Institute of Art (London). In 1988, Doina Moss moved to Great Britain and became member of the "Royal Institute of British Architects". The artist has participated in several group exhibitions, killing two birds with one stone - her passion for architecture and that for visual arts. Doina Moss was invited this summer to exhibit her works at the Royal Academy of Arts in London.
Adeline Timiș studied traditional graphics at the Art and Design University of Cluj-Napoca, where she focused on engraving and drawing techniques. In September 2013, the artist moved to Luton (Great Britain), and went for a study programme at the University of Bedfordshire. Adeline Timiș displayed her works within the International Impressionist Paintings Exhibition from Vaserului Valley (Romania, 2013), within a group exhibition at the University of Bedfordshire (Great Britain, 2015), and Yellow Dots (Great Britain 2016).

If you've ever asked yourself whether Heroes would have been better off as a limited series, you're definitely not alone. Some TV execs are starting to wonder if high-concept shows (especially sci-fi series that rely on complex mythology) should last for only one or two seasons. There's some thought that NBC's Day One, a postapocalyptic drama from Heroes' Jesse Alexander that's in development for fall, is better suited as a limited-run series. And CBS' upcoming adventure Harper's Island (bowing April 9) unfolds and wraps in just 13 episodes, during which the overarching whodunit will be solved. "It's a fictionalized Survivor," explains CBS Paramount Network TV head David Stapf, who says that the show will change characters — and its title — if it ends up being picked up for more seasons. "If Survivor can work cycle in and cycle out with the same premise but different people, why can't a fictionalized show?" Drama scribes like Kevin Falls would certainly be open to the idea. Though his NBC show Journeyman never made it past its 13th episode last season, he got enough of a heads-up to craft an ending that he thinks made the show more appealing for the international and DVD marketplace. Another perk of a short-run series? Says Falls, "It may deliver you a big-name actor…who doesn't want to commit to TV for seven years." + The May 11 episode of Gossip Girl doubles as a pilot for a spin-off about young Lily van der Woodsen's (Brittany Snow) raucous teen years in 1980s Los Angeles. But don't go looking for her current flame, Rufus Humphrey, to pop up. "It's not the story of how Lily met Rufus," explains executive producer Josh Schwartz. In fact, he and co-creator Stephanie Savage are toying with the notion that Lily may have crossed paths with characters from their previous hit, which ended its run on Fox in 2007. The duo say they are discussing the idea of having teenage Lily interact with earlier versions of The O.C.'s Kirsten Nichol and Jimmy Cooper. Our dream casting? Megan Fox as Julie Cooper!
James Bond and Slumdog Millionaire may be two of Britain's most well-known film exports, but that doesn't mean they're destined to merge. Not just yet, anyway. Despite reports that Slumdog ingenue Freida Pinto would be the next in a long line of alluring Bond girls — and further chatter that Oscar-winning director Danny Boyle would helm the upcoming flick — sources say that it's far too soon to make any announcements. In fact, EON Productions (the company behind the Bond franchise) has been so focused on this week's DVD release of Quantum of Solace that it hasn't even chosen what direction it will take for the series' 23rd film, let alone hired a writer or director. And with a release slated for 2011, it may not be deciding anytime soon.

Sport & Leisure
Using leisure in a constructive way is important. Paid employment is becoming harder to find for everyone, and time that might formerly have been filled by working needs to be taken up by other activities. If work is not possible, then a positive use of leisure time helps to prevent an erosion of physical health and self-esteem.
Children with epilepsy at school should be included in the full range of ordinary team sports and other recreational activities, unless the disorder is severe or other impairments prevent this.
Some local regulations may still be overly restrictive in this area and based on outmoded assumptions, simply knowing that a child has epilepsy says nothing about suitability for sports and other activities. Individual decisions need to be taken by informed professional working with parents and, where possible, the child as well.

Jeffrey Dickerson in a Providence born designer. Creating has always been natural to him, from his imagination to everything he has brought to life. Unlike normal designers, he didn't start this career due to his love for fashion but for his love for construction. Inventing and being able to understand how something is put to together or figuring out steps is what Jeffrey found interesting and exciting. He studied business management for the first year of college before deciding that it could not feed his creative side. He then considered The School of Fashion Design Boston and it had changed his life.
Studying at the school from 2011-2015, he designed his first collection in 2014 as a part of "The Launch"; a program designed by the founder of Boston Fashion Week to allow select students to have a platform to design and showcase their first collection. After receiving his diploma from The School of Fashion Design, Jeffrey interned with different local Boston designers and studied under them to build his skill.
He began designing for a boutique in downtown Providence, participating in his first fashion post-school fashion show with Styleweek and acquired a job with a startup customizable clothing company, Alice Walk, in the late spring of 2016. His design concept is to create garments to fit the self-empowered individual. Tackling different styles in each collection while also trying to push the provocative envelope and infuse each piece of work with artistic energy. He considers himself an adventurous designer that empowers the individual through fashion.

Why Should You Eat Sushi?
Eating sushi is good in many ways. Besides just the tasty side of this Japanese delicacy, eating such can be great for your health and most importantly your weight. The unique benefits of having these delicacy remains a primary reason why most people like eating sushi.
Health benefits of eating sushi
Great weight management tool
Sushi is a great tool when it comes to the subject of losing and maintaining a healthy weight. This is attributed to the fact that sushi foods have few calories. From a health perspective, foods with low calories are great for weight management. If you're watching your weight, it is advisable to for rolls that are heavy on vegetables and at the same time avoid those with cream based fillings, which tend to have high calories.
Building muscles
If you are looking to add some muscle mass, sushi foods can be a great option. Besides, this protein-rich diet has been observed to be a great post workout meal. However, you also need to avoid sushi foods with crunchy fish as they are often fried. Instead, you should go for lean fish such as tuna and salmon. For healthy gains, you also need to take sushi foods with the least amount of unhealthy ingredients.
Better energy levels
If you are looking for a diet that will give you more energy, sushi foods can. For this reason, you need to go for sushi prepared with brown rice. The vegetables in this food also act as a source of carbohydrates, which are bound to provide your body with enough calories. Sushi foods rich in carbs are an excellent pre-workout meal.
Boosts immunity
Sushi rolls made with vegetables are rich in antioxidants. These antioxidants are a huge boost for your immunity level and your body's ability to fight diseases. Moreover, the seaweeds in sushi are rich in vital nutrients like magnesium, iodine, and minerals, which are very beneficial for your health.
Aids digestion
Many people today complain of some form of discomfort. Sushi foods have special rice vinegar, which tends to be gentle on your stomach. However, this depends on the type of sushi you choose. In this regard, you should avoid sushi with sweet sauces as they tend to negate the health benefits of eating sushi.

This critter and I saw each other at about the same time. I said: "Oh!" It said: "Shake that rattle". Or similar. I was a good 15 feet away and in no danger. I backed up to about 40 feet away before it stopped warning me. It was a standoff for a while, but I did kind of want to get to where I was headed so I did an end around.
(Northern Pacific Rattlesnake, Crotalus oreganus)
It looked like it had a foxtail stuck in one of its pits or nostrils.
Side note: while I was getting ready this morning to go out on this walk, I thought to myself, well, you look like a right dork with these snake gaiters on. But, as my husband reminds me, the only dumb safety equipment is the safety equipment you did *not* use and regretted you didn't. So: no regrets today, although technically I didn't need the gaiters because I wasn't very close.
A friend talked me into a short trip to the ocean (it took very little arm twisting). It was a foggy morning, but we persevered. We were rewarded with views of sea anemones and lots of sand dollars. And a dolphin!
This horrid seagull we christened Jonathan Livingston Asshole, as he or she hung around our picnic and lunged at a morsel I had been intending to eat. I kept the prize.
I thought this sailboat lurking just offshore was intriguing.
Long-billed Curlew just for fun.
It was only 94F when I returned from my walk this morning - my first in weeks! (Smoke from the fire a few weeks ago, way too damn hot the other weeks, visiting Mom, etc). Anyway, better than 109 or worse.
I walked down to the Chowchilla - meaning it was uphill coming home as usual - I was impressed at how much water is still in the river even now in August. Also, it seems that the rains this year must have washed out the invasive bullfrogs that have choked the river in the past. I didn't see or hear a single one.
Western Fence Lizard
I have to admit, it's a fine thing to be working at home now. I closed up my office in Oakhurst back in March and it's mostly been great. (My husband had to get used to having me around more.) The view from the office window was pretty nifty today.
Our uphill neighbors have started a small (for now) cattle operation, with grass finished beef. I was invited to come observe and photograph the action when they had to brand and vaccinate several calves, and castrate the boys. This shot of Luke roping a calf was the best shot of the day.

Two Other Men: Lessons from the Thieves in the Crucifixion Narrative of St Luke
By Graham Reeves
Book, £8.99 / Kindle Edition, £4.99
'Two other men …' (Luke 23:32)
All four gospels tell of Jesus being crucified between two thieves, but only St Luke's gospel records the final words of these other men. Why does he include these exchanges? What is it about these unknown, dying men that makes them worth remembering?
Time and time again, Luke's gospel shows the mercy of God displayed through Jesus to those who feel themselves unworthy of love – does this final scene fully realise Luke's message? What do these interactions between two criminals tell us about God s love? And what can we conclude about the impenitent thief?
In this thought-provoking book, Graham Reeves explores the deeper meaning of the other men in Luke's crucifixion narrative and reflects upon how their responses to Jesus can inform our own faith and understanding of God.
'None was closer to the cross of Christ than the two criminals crucified either side of him. Graham Reeves invites us to reflect on their contrasting responses as these malefactors turn to the one condemned as they are. Here is an inspirational study, informed by the author's wide reading and extensive pastoral experience. Graham Reeves has the rare gift of making new connections. In Two Other Men he deploys that gift brilliantly. With each new connection a switch is thrown and fresh light breaks from the all too familiar story – a light to lighten our darkness too.'
Dr John Pridmore, former Rector of Hackney
'Which of the two thieves are you? Through self-examination we learn to discern the good and the bad within us. Graham Reeves has written an interesting and informative work to help us on our spiritual journeys.'
The Right Reverend Abbot Giles Hill OSB, Abbot of Our Lady and St John Abbey, Alton
About the author
Father Graham is an Anglican Priest from the Diocese of Chichester. After serving in parishes in Cardiff he was appointed a mental health chaplain in 1998 in West Sussex. He is also a priest oblate of the Order of St Benedict and regularly leads retreats at The Abbey of Our Lady and St John, Alton, Hampshire. His first book, Before Them Set Thy Holy Will, examined the role of iconography in pastoral care. He is married to Jackie and has a son, Alex.

STAVANGER, Norway – Norwegian police say that a knife-wielding man who allegedly stabbed three people to death during a bus hijacking in rural Norway had been due to be deported on Tuesday.
Police spokeswoman Eli Anne Tvergrov says the 31-year-old suspect from South Sudan had been living at a reception center for asylum seekers in the nearby small town of Aardal and was due to be arrested and sent to Spain to have his application for asylum reviewed there.
The man allegedly hijacked the bus on Monday, killing the other occupants, two men in their 50s — the Norwegian bus driver and a Swedish male passenger — and a 19-year-old Norwegian woman. The man was arrested.
Tvergrov said Tuesday that the motive for the attacks is still unclear.

Tariffs, protectionism and isolationism are bad for free trade ("Global trade at risk if US turns insular: PM"; Nov 20).
These destroy the ability of the international market system to allocate resources efficiently.
When tariffs are imposed, prices of imports are raised. This lowers domestic demand for imported goods, reducing the income of the exporting countries.
Tariffs are mostly paid by consumers from the increase in the prices of goods and services.
Countries without natural resources and unable to produce their own goods and services will have to depend entirely on imports.
The average citizen will then have a hard time dealing with higher prices for his necessities.
Subsidising an uncompetitive industry in the form of tariffs is an inefficient and counterproductive measure, and will fail when those who are barely employed cannot afford their own expensive products.
The key to a competitive market is free trade with equal exchange, as growth is then based on sales.
The evolution of new ideas is how countries stay on top of the market. Governments should, therefore, find ways to make their countries attractive places to do business by lowering minimum wages and taxes, and by removing bureaucracy that raises the barrier to entry.
This way, companies are forced to compete and make better products at lower prices to maintain a competitive edge. This makes for a better world economy.
In fact, by increasing tariffs, governments hurt the economy by killing off jobs and by pushing factories out. Trade restrictions typically drive up prices for domestic consumers.

One lucky Windsor based chef is now the owner of a Toronto restaurant, and it only cost him $150.
Das Gasthaus gastrobar on Danforth Avenue was put up in a raffle by owner Ruthie Cummings on Nov. 9, 2015. In a touching video made to promote the contest, Cummings revealed that she was leaving the restaurant not because she wanted to, but because she had to. Cummings' parents are in their 80s, and their health is deteriorating, so she is putting her restaurant dreams on hold to take care of them.
O'Zapft is'!@dasgasthaustoronto celebrates Oktoberfest from Sept 21st 'til Oct 4th!Get in your Lederhosen and join...Posted by Das Gasthaus Contemporary German Cuisine on Saturday, September 19, 2015
Cummings sold tickets at $150 apiece, with the intention of selling a maximum of 4000 tickets. Despite selling fewer than that, she went ahead with the raffle, increasing all participants' odds of winning the restaurant.
And for Shawn McKerness, executive chef at The City Grill in downtown Windsor, lucky ticket #4190 was all he needed. He found out he won the restaurant just before the new year when Cummings called to tell him the good news.
McKerness, who is also expecting a child this year, took to his Facebook page on Dec. 31 to thank his friends and family for all the congratulations, writing honestly about his emotions regarding the news:
This is all so very very exciting and overwhelming. Thanks all for the congrats. But lots to do and take care of. All on the busiest day of the year!!!Posted by Shawn Mckerness on Thursday, December 31, 2015
The restaurant is currently valued at $144,550 and includes all furniture, equipment and fixtures, but does not include artwork found within the space, as Cummings wishes to keep them for sentimental reasons.

I went down to interview Evans, and actually found myself in one of the friendlies, most interesting one on one conversations that I have ever had. Daryl gave me two hours of his time and I could have sat and listened for two more. I found that Evans is much more than just a legend on the ice, but one heck of a nice guy that gives back tirelessly to his community and owns some of the most awesome suits the sports world has ever seen (if you do not believe me then Google it).
These days Evans is no longer on the team roster for the Kings' but if you ever visit the Toyota Center (home of the LA Kings practice ice) you just might see him skating the ice (he is the guy that wears no laces in his skates) or giving knuckles to all the littlest LA Kings' fans he walks by. This is what Evans does by day. On game night he is the long-time radio color commentator for his beloved Kings'. As an added bonus I was able to meet Alex Faust the TV play by play announcer for the Kings'. Faust took the place of long time play by play announcer Bob Miller. I have been invited back to "headquarters" (AKA: Staple Center) for a Kings' game and a visit to the broadcast booth to see Faust at work.
Below is what Daryl Evans shared with me during our conversation. I hope you enjoy getting to know Daryl as much as I did.
Tell me a little about yourself: where you grew up, siblings? I grew up in Toronto, Canada. I have a brother and a sister. My sister is a little bit older and my brother is a little bit younger and both my brother and I played hockey. He still plays a little bit of adult hockey, he's in sales now. My sister lives in Michigan.
Did you play ice hockey when you were young? Did you have a dream to play in the NHL? I actually was a late starter. My dad had never ice skated ever. He was a very good athlete but primarily football, baseball, basketball. He played for the Brooklyn Dodgers organization never on the big team. So, we used to play street hockey and actually got into hockey through one of my friends' dads who suggested to my dad that we play in house hockey and that's how it all got started.
Who were your ice hockey heroes growing up? Well, back when I was growing up there were only 6 teams so we got to know pretty much every player on every team. I think players I remember when I was young, young, remember watching Bobby Hull who had the big shot, when Bobby Orr started to play I was a big fan of his, I loved the way he played the game. Yvan Cournoyer because of the speed that he had.
Tell me about your career in the junior hockey league: the Niagara Falls Flyers? Well I was drafted to the OHL at that time to the Niagara Falls Flyers. I played my hockey growing up in Toronto. I played some junior B in Toronto that's where I was drafted to Niagara Falls and when I was drafted in juniors to Niagara Falls I was actually a defenseman and I never played forward until I started junior hockey. Team was loaded up with defense and coach suggested that I play forward and that would be the only chance I would have to make a team. Fortunately, enough I got the opportunity and by the end of the year I was second on the team in scoring.
I read your stats in the junior league and it was obvious you could score and score often. However, some critics felt that this ability might not translate into the NHL where the players were bigger, faster, stronger. But yet, the Kings drafted you in the 9th round 178th overall in 1980. How did that feel? Well, I think being a smaller athlete at the time, you know your size is always the question. So, size is one thing that no one has control over. So, things I worked on were: becoming a better skater, shooting the puck, all those types of things that were controlled by myself. Those are things that I worked on all the time my strength and my ability and continued to keep doing that. You got to continue to keep proving yourself. That is when I made the transition from defense to forward led my team in scoring there through my junior career and when I got drafted by the Kings went to the AHL, which was in Newhaven, CT at that time. Again, re-established myself and proved myself there and ended up scoring 51 goals in the AHL in one year. So, again its constant proving yourself, showing that you can play at whatever level you're in.
At what point did you realize that being a professional hockey player was a real possibility?
I think it was probably more of a dream like I don't know if you ever really look at it and think it is a possibility. You continue to keep chasing that dream. Probably when I was like 11 or 12 years old playing peewee in Toronto I remember going to the Quebec peewee tournament it was kind of a really big thing. One of the best minor league tournaments in the world, still to this day. I think at that point there I thought it would be great to be a hockey player. Probably never understood what it was to do it for a living or for a career. I think that is probably when the dream became a little more of reality a little bit more focused, striving forward. I was a good player at that time and so I continued to keep pushing to do all that I could. I always played ahead of myself. Played minor bantam and then started playing junior hockey. When I was 14 I was playing against guys that were as old as 21. That is when it was starting to kick in that there was an opportunity. So, the focus over the next handful of years was to do all I could to give that opportunity a chance.
What was it like to play in your first NHL game? Where was it and did you win or lose?
I think it's a dream come true. I think that comes in a couple of different phase. I think one thig is getting drafted into the NHL, going to a training camp, playing in an exhibition game, and playing in a regular season game. My first regular season game was actually in Denver against the old Colorado Rockies at that time and it was a great experience. I didn't score or get any points or anything in that game. But, it was just a great experience playing in that game against something that you will never forget.
Well, I always played defense all the way until I was drafted in juniors. Defense, I was always comfortable with. I played both left and right defense. I had a good shot when I was growing up. I never really envisioned myself playing forward at all. I think really throughout the course of my career whether it be through childhood or professional one position I never played was center. I played goalie and everything else. But I never really played center. I like the defensive position. Kind of like quarterback.
When you saw your schedule who was the one goalie you didn't want to face?
At that time when you looked at it there was guys you didn't want to face for a reason of how good they were but you still wanted to get that opportunity. Being in awe of some of these guys. I remember playing against the Montreal Canadians which they still are today the winningest franchise in the history of the NHL. You go back to the time when they had guys like Grant Fuhr on the team, these are guys that you really don't want to play against, but you do want to play against. Probably say going into the Montreal forum for the first time playing against them was one of those experiences that everyone will remember.
What was your favorite road ice to play on? Well back then when we played I think the rinks especially the ones in Western Canada. Winnipeg had exceptionally quick ice. This was a rink at that time were used just for hockey rinks. But now they are entertainment centers ice gets taken in and out for concerts and things like that. I would say Winnipeg probably stands as having the fastest ice and Minnesota was pretty good back then.
No interview with Daryl Evans would be complete without asking about the most iconic goal in Kings' franchise history. At the end of the 82 season the Kings made the playoffs against the Oilers. Not to mention, you would take the ice with Gretzky. You made the game winning goal in overtime for a miracle comeback. Who was favored to win that game? How does it feel to go down in NHL history as a legend? I think when you look at that game in that series that year the Oilers finished 46 points ahead of the Kings in the regular season. So, it was a mis-match. They were clearly the better team of the two. I think what really favored us in that series was that there was a 5-game series of three out of five. Had the series been seven games we might not have had the success that we had. We had nothing to lose we went into Edmonton and that was really a unique series aside from the game of "Miracle on Manchester" game one of the playoff series we went in there-the NHL actually expanded the roster from 19 to 20 players that year just for the play-offs and so I actually got into the line-up. I was the twentieth player. The coach of the team Don Perry kind of put me in as an extra player I wasn't going to get much ice time. I played for him in the AHL and the international league prior to that so he was familiar with me as a player. He gave me an opportunity to play in the play-offs. We were down four to one in Edmonton and eventually came back and won that game 10-8. Now the unique thing about that is that still stands today as a record in the NHL most goals scored combined by two teams in a play-off game-18 goals. That was my first play-off game and I had two goals and two assists and was the 1st star by Hockey Night in Canada, so that was a dream come true. First of all, to play in a play-off game and then have the impact that you would have on a game that is in the record books. As I mentioned Edmonton was 46 points ahead of us in regular season, they were highly favored to win the series. Next night in OT Gretzky scores they beat us 3-2 so the series comes back to LA tied one/one with Edmonton having won the last game I think everyone felt Edmonton was on track and it was a wake-up call. In game three, the "Miracle on Manchester", they built a five nothing lead through two periods. We were going into the 3rd period at the forum it was a down atmosphere. I think the focus of our team was to win the 3rd period and carry some momentum into game four. That's what we did, we made the big comeback. Jay Wells scored a couple of minutes into the 3rd making it 5-2. At 9:56 of the 3rd myself along with some of my team mates got ejected for a 10-minute misconduct penalty forced to go to the locker room. It was a ten-minute waltzing penalty for pushing, shoving, or fighting. We listened from the locker room and the Kings battled to make it 5-4! Steve Bozeck tied the game with five seconds left in the 3rd and we got a chance to play in OT. It still stands today as the greatest comeback in Stanley Cup play-off history. I skated in behind Doug Smith because the puck was there just behind his leg and I just let the puck go in the direction towards the net and it had eyes. It made its way over Grant Fuhr's right shoulder. Two nights later Edmonton beats us by a score of 3-2. Both teams actually boarded the same plane and went to Edmonton for game 5. Which is unheard of that both teams were on the same plane. We went in there and beat them 7-4. I led the team that year in scoring in play-offs. It was a crazy type of year. That series it was odd that we won they were the highest scoring team in the NHL, but it was the Kings who won the 10-8 game the 6-5 game and the 7-4 game and they won the low scoring games that were 3-2. It was a great way to start a career.
What's your best/craziest memory from the sin bin?
We try to stay out of there as much as we can. But, in some of the arenas we used to go to there used to be a lot more fighting back then and you would have fans come in there and next thing you know your fighting in the sin bin. So, I would say probably some of the characters (fans from the opposing team) you had come down there pouring drinks on your head having to throw them back the other way. There was a lot of chaos back then. A lot of memorable things usually involved the fans trying to get themselves into the penalty box and once they got in there they were trying to get out because they bit off a little more than they could chew.
What path did your hockey career take after the Miracle on Manchester?
Probably not the course I would have expected it would have taken or would have likes it to take. I used that as a platform to get going and the unfortunate thing was it didn't go quite the way I would have expected. I went down to the AHL (American Hockey League) and set a modern day record for goals scored in consecutive games down there. Had another chance to come up. Eventually got traded to Washington, went to Toronto which was unique playing in my home town. I always dreamed of being a Maple Leaf as a young kid, so it was good. Spent the last couple of years of my career over in Europe. A year in Italy, a year in England. All in all, the Miracle on Manchester that series, that game opened up a lot of things and I never looked back, never regretted anything. The path that I was given I wouldn't change a thing.
Who were the biggest supporters of your dream to be in the NHL?
It would have to be my mom and dad and my entire family. Without them it never would of happened. First of all, the introduction to the game and then after that just continuously making it possible for me to practice, to getting new sticks and things like that. We didn't have a lot of money as a family but it was a priority, it was something I likes and had passion for and everything was possible they did what they could. I am forever grateful and thankful to them. Still to this day they will come out here (L.A.) they come to the King's games, they usually generate their winter trips around how many games we have. They love the game and something I am forever grateful for. Without their support, not only the financial support-the means to take me to all the games, but also the emotional support for all the ups and downs. I knew they were always there and they always had my back.
What went into your decision to hang up your blades?
At the time there was only 21 teams in the NHL. I went to Europe for a couple of years and the last year I went over as a player/coach so that was kind of the start of it, but it was a little bit of an introduction as to what hockey would be like post-career. I actually retired in Europe. I went in to coaching. I think recognizing where I was at and the opportunity that was in front of me-I knew it was time. I don't regret anything. The time that I spent, as little as it was seemed like an eternity at the time but probably most proud of what I have accomplished post-career then actually playing in the NHL.
After retirement you chose a career in broadcasting with the Kings. Is this something you thought about prior to playing in the NHL?
Not at all. I actually stumbled upon that. When I retired from hockey I actually went into the automobile business. I managed a car dealership and just stumbled into broadcasting. I had an opportunity to do one game and I enjoyed it. It didn't come about right away. Being removed from the game I realized how passionate I was about the game and how much I appreciated it. Coming back to it has been real special. I now have a career in broadcasting. I have been blessed with the people that have been around: Bob Miller, Nick Nixon, and Jim Fox. These guys all great in their industry. I learned from all of them. It is an industry where you continue to learn and that is what I like about it. It evolves every year. You look at the guys that have been around it 40 to 60 years and then you look at the guys that are coming now, from different generations. The athlete is different, so it's a moving target and I enjoy being around it. I was more nervous commentating my first King's game than playing my first game with the King's. Broadcasting is not something I did as a young kid and coming in gave me a few more jitters than playing the game.
I watched a news clip on Fox about your fancy suits. Have you always been the guy with the suits? What is your favorite suit?
Some of it has to do with the way I was brought up with our teams. With certain teams we had a team uniform we had to wear, maybe a pair of slacks, sweater, sports jacket something like that. When I got to junior you had maybe one suit and when it was gameday you put that suit on. I remember getting my first three-piece suit. I have always liked being dressed up. It kind of evolved. Now a lot of the suits I wear are theme based. I like the shiny material. The suits that I had made for Vegas with the dice are some of my favorite.
Your are known for giving back to your community. Tell me about the youth camps you run?
I feel very fortunate for what the game has done for me. I was a player that started has a goal tender and couldn't skate well. I have great appreciation for skating coaches. I have now been teaching for 47 years. Never gets old. Each student whether it is a child or adult is a different challenge. I like that challenge. When I was drafted here in L.A. in 1980 hockey was not very popular we some passionate fans but the number was small. We try to reach the next generation and the next generation after that. I am involved in the youth camps that have been around for 30 years and I take a lot of pride in that. I coach the skating element. All of the other things, the hospital visits, visiting schools, and anything else we can do to grow notice to our game-bring it to the forefront. Just not enough hours in the day. If I could do more I would.
Describe the game of hockey in three words
Fun, Fun, FUN
Greatest hockey goalie of all time?
Tough question. To answer this you have to go through generations and phases of hockey players because the game has changed so much. You have to look at statistics: Martin Brodeur owns every record. You have Glenn Hall who has a record that I don't think will ever be challenged. He played 500 straight games as a goalie without a mask. These are the guys I got a chance to watch. In todays' era I am a huge fan of Jonathan Quick who is arguably the best goal tender in the game today.
If you could give yourself a hashtag that summed up your hockey career what would it be?

text: University administrators, faculty, and staff daily face the challenges of difference: race, ethnicity, class, gender, sexuality, and now citizenship. How do we come together to create safe spaces to discuss these challenges as opportunities for honest conversation and creative approaches to serve our university, particularly our students? This workshop is about dealing with these differences through honest conversations based on the perspectives of those who are not part of the majority. We will begin with setting the stage for conversation through a presentation that delves into the reality of those who are seen as "Other." From the perspective that difference is neither good or bad, it just is, we will then move into solidarity groups. These groups will provide safe spaces as the participants face the challenges of difficult conversations. From there, we will start the conversation across the various groups to share insights from those who feel marginalized and not understood to creating avenues for listening and dialogue to continue the journey of becoming allies. The presentation will be given by two "Unlikely" Allies who have engaged in cross-cultural and racial discourse and are modeling ways to deal with difficult conversations and offering constructive methods for applying these in our daily lives.

Facilitated by the Global Opportunities for Associations (GOA) program, Wavefront supports Canadian export activity in the wireless and mobility sector
OTTAWA, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - April 24, 2014) - Wavefront today announced that it has been awarded funding from the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade (DFATD) under the Global Opportunities for Associations (GOA) program. With financial and operational assistance from DFATD, Wavefront supports wireless technology companies from across Canada in their global export efforts through a series of targeted market entry trips to meet with key international industry players.
Small businesses often lack the internal resources and international networks to effectively export their technology solutions to foreign markets. Their most commonly cited challenges to expanding internationally include both a lack of knowledge of new markets and difficulty in finding partners and distributors.
Wavefront's Global Market Entry Programs are specifically designed to help SMEs overcome these challenges.
"The Wavefront Global Market Entry program has allowed us to go into markets we could never have addressed quickly on our own," remarks Wayne Chester, CEO of Sendum. "Over the last few years, the program has taken us into opportunities on four continents, connected us with customers and resellers, and dramatically sped up our time to market."
By partnering with the Trade Commissioner Service (TCS) and the expertise gained by organizing 17 International Market Entry Programs for more than 70 Canadian companies over the past 4 years, Wavefront has developed a program model designed to maximize commercial opportunities for the participating companies. Each trip involves taking a small group of wireless technology companies from the same industry sub-sector to a foreign market for an intensive program of B2B meetings, networking and industry events.
For 2014, Wavefront will manage 6 market entry programs to key markets across the globe:
"Through this program we have been able to take Canadian-built innovation into global markets to forge relationships with an impressive list of international enterprises," says Brian Roberts, VP International Business Development at Wavefront. "The 2014 program builds on work done in previous years and promises tremendous opportunities for Canadian companies."
