Harare, Zimbabwe. (News Of The South) – Young people in Zimbabwe constitute more than 60% of the population. Young people are faced with the pains of unemployment hence indulging in social vices such as taking drugs, a myriad of criminal activities and sexual indulgences have become rampant as they seek forms of escapism from routine home chores.
According to National Aids Council at least 136 000 young people between the ages of 15 and 24 are living with HIV in Harare alone. Of these statistics girls are the most affected accounting for more than half of these figures.
Zimbabwe has one of the largest HIV epidemics in the world, with an estimated adult HIV prevalence of 15% and 1.4 million people living with HIV. Long distance truck drivers, sex workers, young people, people in prisons have been cited as key populations in Zimbabwe this was said by Minister of Health and Child care Dr David Parirenyatwa in his official opening of the Southern African Regional Students and Youth Conference (SARSYC).
There are a number of multidimensional factors in which young people find themselves in a web of sexually transmitted infections. Being young and easily impressed by the flashy things of life young people end up in inter-generational relationship where the partner is ten or more years their senior. In cases of unequal power relations the vulnerable party which in this case the younger person is not given the choice of negotiating for safer sex leaving them exposed to infections.
Sex education is still a touchy subject for open discussion in Zimbabwe, while the extended family institutions of the aunts and uncles are slowly being eroded due to various reasons like new culture, social media reliability for information as well as people being too busy making money to be playing the advisor.
Discussing these issues with parents on the other hand turns out to be awkward and tense with the child playing mute in a bid to disguise the fact that they already are fully aware of what the parent is painstakingly trying to elaborate while the parent is wondering if they are ,saying too much .
Sex education in schools during science class is somewhat vague, brief and scientific without really explaining how it directly relates to a person, regardless of the stifled giggles which i remember characterised reproduction topics as teachers used figures of nude diagrams to explain issues of sexual reproductive health , students never really benefit much from it.
Not knowing much on issues of sex and sexuality does not however result in one not having interest in it , in actual fact the lesser the knowledge the more the curiosity to experiment. Having little or no information on sexual and reproductive health rights has led to peer to peer education as adolescents share personal experiences , what they think and what their friend heard culminating in engaging in sexual acts based on half or not near truths .
Speaking on the need to educate children on issues of reproductive health United Nations Population Fund representative during the SARSYC conference Tamisayi Chinhengo urged for engagement of the right population in the process.
"We need to catch those young and teach them how to grow, that is, young people in primary schools, before they engage in risky behaviours" she said.
Young people have been urged to participate in sexual reproductive education in order to protect them against making uninformed diseases which may affect their future. This will be made possible by rolling out of more reproductive health in schools.
Organisations like SAYWHAT , SAfAIDS , ROOTS and NAC among others have already being doing work on awareness on youth engagement in sexual activities at a tender age which often result in unwanted pregnancies , early child marriages and also HIV and AIDS. However these programs might not reach everyone and there is need to introduce them as part of school curriculum.
While these initiatives target preventing new infections, young people already living with HIV and AIDS are not left out. National AIDS Council chief operations officer Tapuwa Magure revealed that the University of Zimbabwe has been given the green light to initiate and supply ART while MSU has been accredited as a follow-up site.
Looking at the statistics of people living with HIV in Zimbabwe one will note that young women are more affected than men constituting more than half of the people living with HIV.
This is also the same for women all over Africa according to Ugandan coordinator HIV prevention at Uganda Aids Commission (UAC) Dr David Tigalawana, "The female genital tract is made up of a larger exposed area. Semen has higher viral load than vaginal fluids and the semen stays longer in the female genital tract after acts of sex which increases the chances of HIV transmission. It has also been proved that the genital tract of young girls is immature and more prone to invasion by HIV" .This is among many other factors making women more vulnerable to HIV.
Young women also need more information on available contraceptives to prevent unwanted pregnancies.
The family institution is also encourage to make time for the adolescent children and take them through the various challenges they face , Head of Communications and Knowledge management at SAfAIDS hosts a popular T.V show Positive Talk which focuses on issues of sexual reproductive health rights among young people , being a mother to a teenager herself Makanga says working for a Regional organization means regular travels outside the country, which means needing the ability to really prioritise work and still maintain a stable work-life balance and although she admits it gets difficult she manages to juggle both and still be there for her daughter , "I know this is the time she needs me most and I try to be there for her, but I must admit, she shares me with my other responsibilities, which is a minus. There are times that I have missed some of her school activities because I will be away. The father has to fill in the gap. So it all boils down to having the ability to balance, and make sure you leave time for social events, otherwise you can go haywire".
Young people have thus been urged to young people should actively collaborate with key stakeholders on Sexual Reproductive Health (SRH) to eradicate HIV and AIDS.

But last night was ridiculous even by my standards.
I was tired after my weekend of parade attendance and hamburger eating so I found myself a bit more ready for beddy-bye than usual. I was awake until midnight or so, but knew that I was running on empty and went to bed thinking that slumber was just around the corner. Not so.
The brain kicked into that weird gear that is often unused. The thoughts began racing. So fascinating was this series of neural firings, that sleep became utterly impossible.
Boy, July is sure coming to a close quickly...I really need to start planning to get the classroom set up for the opening of school.
Speaking of which, I probably should get my teacher certification stuff done. I've sort of stretched the "wiggle room" they allow on that.
If I don't get it done, what should I do for a living instead of teaching? I'm a pretty talented gal. I'll bet I could come up with an interesting career...
Hey, if I get a chin implant, would I look more distinguished? Maybe more trustworthy? I could become a chin model...that would be a cool new career!
Or would that just give my face more surface area for growing wrinkles and age spots. I'd probably do better to minimize the square footage of my face at this stage of life rather than put up an addition.
Why am I not sleeping? I really should be asleep. I'm pretty sure I'm tired. I distinctly recall saying that I was tired around eight o'clock.
Where is the Big, Fluffy Kitty? She makes me nervous when she stays up late. She looks like the type to make a lot of long distance phone calls or suspicious Internet purchases. She has no thumbs, though. It's probably all right.
Wait. What the heck? People type and make phone calls without thumbs all the time.
I should check on her. Just to be sure...
Maybe I should count sheep. I hear that helps people get to sleep. Sheep. That's funny! I'm The Sheep! I can count me! One!!! Hee-hee...one Sheep! Let's do it again.
One!!!! Ha-ha-ha!!!!!
OK...let's settle down here. I really should be asleep. I'm sure I'm tired. I think I even feel a yawn coming on.
....one! ::snicker::
I finally gave up and watched some TV for a while. Sometime around 4:00 in the morning, I found the will to ignore my own self's ramblings. I managed to sleep for about four hours. But, there was certainly less of the "Caffeinated Hummingbird" air about the morning's activities. I was more like a turtle on Valium... And, even by my standards, the afternoon nap was a long one.
The plan was to break out the drum carder again and renew the assault on the endless pile of merino that has taken over my living room. But, I was feeling the urge to do something a little different today what with the messed up sleep situation. So I alternated between tidying up the shetland lamb fleece (which is smaller and of a more manageable mass) and bit of knitting. There is little to show for the effort, though. The pace was slow and the amount of time spent on any individual activity short. Maybe I'll get a second wind tonight.
I'd like to think that the merino might call to me again. After four days of carding, flicking, picking and general nurturing, I have a rather small amount to show.

What people have to do is pay attention to seniors. If people actually listen, senior citizens truly do not request for much. Elders compared to the rest of us grew up with less so they anticipate less. As most of us have actually had more similar to time came computers and lots of other things, numerous senior citizens have opted to rely on the old methods. As this may irritate some, if you consider it, elders are not requesting more when doing this, they are indeed requesting less. The only way they might be asking for more, is if something is of an inconvenience to someone due to the older not using the more recent methods of doing things.
Identify and call help available in the community. You'll require it. Anticipate to roll up your shirt sleeves, too. It might take a great deal of call to find the resources you require. Start with your regional Firm on Aging and the senior ministry at your place of worship. Dial 2-1-1 if you live in a big city. If you work for a larger corporation, ask your human relations department what Home Health Aide Institute in nj resources they offer.
Different relative may observe different changes. Depending on what function each family member plays with the aging liked ones, different restrictions, changing conditions and care requirements might be recognized.
By doing this, your elder's blood pressure will have the chance to change to the modification in their position and will significantly decrease the possibilities of your elder ending up being lightheaded.
The problem with either of these techniques, obviously, is the expense. Are you prepared to pay $4,000 or more a month? Can you manage to? For lots of people, the response is just that they do not have such loan. This is especially true offered the financial state of the nation.
How do they finish with their medication? Put all their medication in a plastic container that has a separate compartment for each day. Watch on this and see to make sure they are taking all their medications at the proper times and the right days.
Take pride in what you are doing and then ask yourself how you can do it better. You are changing the world – making it a better location for everyone. And as your organisation grows – well. you understand the result!

I'm not sure about the title and may continue to revise it, but here's something:
Bursting to life with expectation;
A tree starts to bloom,
A carnival pulls into town.
Reality strikes it's toxic blow;
Hot breath in the ear,
A pain throbbing deep in the chest.
Adapting to life's changing seasons;
Normal takes fresh shape,
A life morphs into something new

some links that I have had cluttering my bookmarks all about Duke (dear old)
- Some really rich old guy got to go to K's Basketball Academy and he wrote about it here. How do I know he's rich and old? Because you have to be at least 35 and it cost $10,000 for the weekend. I guess for a lot of people it is a life time dream, and if you can drop 10k on a weekend go for it, though the things that could be done with that money... It's a lot of money.But it really seems worth it, with the plethora of Duke legends who come in, and apparently K is a lot calmer and nicer than his regular game time demeanor. I really wanna go. First step- get rich. 2nd step get old. Working on them both. I really need to be an Iron Duke.
- But of course you don't have to be old or rich to interact with The Team. No Duke is paradise where everything is wonderful and the "gods" interact with mere mortals. This Dukie got to watch a pick up game at Wilson with the teams constituted as "Duke recruits Nolan Smith and Taylor King, along with Jon Scheyer and Jay Williams [on one team]. The other team featured Greg Paulus, Lance Thomas, Gerald Henderson, and Chris Carrawell. " That must have been awesome to watch and he has some pretty good observations. I'm getting excited for the season, I must admit. I have so much faith in G-Love ( Gerald Henderson "you can't spell his name without God) and Special Sauce ( Greg Paulus.)
- As for our football team. ::sigh:: I always have so much faith in them and after we beat Carolina my freshman year I was certain we would win a bowl game. Instead we won like 2 games in the next 3 years. But I still believe that Duke Football is on the verge of greatness, probably two steps away from an ACC championship (hey it happened to Wake, who we should have beaten by 3 scores.) Last year we should have won like at least 5 games, except for our damn kicker ( I hate your Surgan) and some bad luck. And we are continuing to get good recruits our talent level is rising ( though to replace the one and only John Talley is a major feat. I can't believe he didn't get drafted.) But enough about the past and hypothetical futures. It's a new year and I'm predicting a bowl game, though it would really help if one of our best defenders, Michael Tauiliili didn't get arrested in the Cook-Out (mmmm) parking lot. According to the report "[the linebacker,] who was driving his 2000 Ford Expedition, failed to stop after the wreck, despite having caused property damage, and then got into some kind of altercation during which he allegedly pointed a gun at a person and physically assaulted them. Tauiliili had a concealed knife on his person at the time of his arrest and was accused of pointing a BB gun at an individual, according to warrants.
Michael said Monday she didn't have details of the fight Tauiliili allegedly engaged in or details of the injuries he allegedly caused the victim but said that the linebacker's blood alcohol was .12 at the time of his arrest." C'mon Tauilililillilil, you're better than that. And he's suspended indefinitely which is a major loss. But we will get through it and (the) Thaddeus Lewis will lead us to the promised land. Thaddeus Lewis for the Heisman; you heard it hear first. We already have a vote in the polls ( I Love you Spurrier) [UPDATE: If you wanna see some serious ownage about this, skim this post but read the comments: Simply Brilliant] . Soon we will have more.
- Of course it would help our entire athletic department if we had a change of leadership. Instead of Firing Joe Alleva as they should have, Duke rewarded him with a contract extension. It's ridiculous and he's worthless and living off the surplus and legacy of the Tom Butters era. And it is a rumour that I heard from my friend, but he was in a position to know, that Steve Spurrier before he took the South Carolina job wanted to come back to Duke but Alleva didn't return the phone call. Fucking unacceptable, damn your loyalty I want a major title! That is all.
Oh and this isn't about Duke but as so many people say Duke Basketball is like the Yankees I'll let that be the link. Anyway Derek Jeter has herpes! Herpes! And a report is stating that he gave it to Jessica Alba. It may not be true but I choose to believe it. I really hate him even more know. Damn Yankees, ruining America and our natural resources. I mean Jeter has been linked to like everyone in Hollywood and everyone sleeps with everyone. Derek Jeter is like a plague rat. And disgusting and I hate him. He must be stopped.

"You can feel your femininity," she said. "You get a good feeling."
October 23, 2014
Every day as part of my morning exercises, I do a tad of belly dancing.
Years ago, I discovered when I belly danced outside in a secluded area of a Winnipeg park that I could soar into a place of spiritual high if I kept doing an infinity-style belly dance step over and over again. There is nothing like inducing a natural high in oneself. This– as far as I am concerned — is a form of pure love.
It was in the months after I birthed my son that I decided to take a belly dance workshop. My body had changed so much and I hoped I would get back in touch with it through the Middle Eastern dance. Belly dance did the trick.
I also learned that the tradition is for women to teach their girls about the nature of sex through experiencing belly dance. It is also a form of support to women who are giving birth. It made me proud that it came from my Arabic background as my ancestry on my father's maternal side of the family is of Lebanese descent.
The woman who taught the class was from Germany of all places. She told me that people attended belly dance performances in droves and packed huge theatres in her home country. "German are very thorough about anything we do," she explained. To practice the basis belly dance moves over and over again — the repetition — is something Germans do very well, according to her.
On Salt Spring Island, in the late 1990s, I became friends with a woman from Germany. And, guess what? Her children's father was a belly dance instructor who she decided to invite to do workshops on the island. One of the first articles I wrote for the Driftwood, when I was hired as a reporter, was about this upcoming event.

Belly dancer workshops set to beat on Salt Spring
by Tanya Lester
Hips will sway to the beat of authentic belly dance music when renowned Egyptian instructor, choreographer and musician Samy Abdo leads a series of workshops in Mahon Hall from October 12 to 15.
Abdo, who now resides in Munich, has taught dance throughout Germany, Austria and Switzerland. He has also appeared on television, and many of the dancers he has taught have become professionals.
Renate Jung, the Salt Spring Island spokeswoman for Abdo, said participants will learn body coordination; isolated muscular movement; to step to the rhythm and beat of the music; and to use those steps in free dance.
"You can feel your femininity," she said. "You get a good feeling."
Jung said Abdo believes one of his major accomplishments was working with a woman who could only crawl when he first met her after she suffered severe leg injuries. After three months she started to improve and was dancing in a year. Today she is a professional dancer.
In Europe, when Abdo begins drummung for his dancers, a hush falls over the audience, Jung said. This is unusual as belly dance is often only background music in restaurants and night clubs.
Abdo began drumming when he was four years old. When he first heard the sound of the drums he spent over an hour searching for the source of its beat. After he found the man who played it, Abdo sat on his doorstep until the drummer came home, asking him if he could learn to play the instrument.
At six years old, he was drumming in the school music group. This was followed by performances at weddings and street festivals, and Abdo was improvising with street musicians by age 11.
As a young adult Abdo worked in the desert as a meteorologist. He took advantage of the three days on, four days off work schedule to play in the big bands with professional singers and dancers.
After travelling throughout the Middle East and Europe, Abdo moved to Germany where he met his first wife.
In his 30s he was playing in a nightclub. When the Arabic belly dancer became ill, he asked a woman who always came to watch the dance if she would be interested in learning. After he taught her the minimal movements, she began to perform. When people asked about who had taught her, Abdo started instructing others.
According to Jung, this opened up a "treasure within him" in which he discovered that he was a talented teacher. She attributes this to instinct as well as his many years of observing and absorbing belly dance.
Abdo's goal when he comes to Salt Spring is to increase the number of belly dancers and drummers here. "With his clear teaching and his use of rules, belly dancers will have a richer experience," Jung said….

Leaving Kanab, UT I ran south to Fredonia, AZ and followed highway 89a east through the Kaibab National Forest along the Vermilion Cliffs, Marble Canyon, and Echo Cliffs. 89a terminated at Bitter Springs and became highway 89. Snore...yawn...
My first stop of the day occurred when I spotted a sign pointing to the Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument. It is in fact a huge park where remains of ancient critters can be found. You can drive around inside the park with a permit, of course, but no taking of artifacts should you find any.
|I think I saw the movie...
|In case you get lost you can follow this simple map to find your way out. Easy.
|Big ol' wire mesh monster. I'd love to have this guy for our yard
There were gazillions of Asians armed with cameras going hard at it. For travel they seem to prefer soccer vans which resemble circus clown cars when they all get stuffed in.
|This was the only identifying sign in the whole place, ergo no-name water feature
I'll bet the Mormons get bored as hell with all these red rocks. They probably appreciate the tourist trade though.
This is what I mean when I say I'm glad they have lots of guard rails. Keeps old geezers from stumbling off the path and making a lot of racket on the way to the bottom.
Mid-afternoon I'd stopped to refuel and get out of my rain gear...what? I didn't mention the rain shower? No matter, while struggling out of the gear I noticed a sign pointing to another tourist attraction, this time it was the Meteor Crater and only six miles down the road. What the heck, I didn't have a schedule and I like meteors. I think I like them, actually never met one so off I went.
The center is a privately owned operation going back for decades. All the buildings are first class and they maintain the stairs & walkways really nice. Our astronaut program used the crater for training exercises so they've incorporated a bit of that too. All in all it's an interesting place to visit. Old geezers slide in for fifteen buckeroos.
|Say you did something really bad and for punishment they made you fill in the hole. I wonder how many shovels you'd wear out in the process. Strange how the mind wanders sometimes.....
Just as I finished the self-guided tour I felt the first splatter of rain. Then it began to really come down in buckets. I ran to the bike as my helmet was locked facing up, just the thing if you want to catch rain water for a bath or to play with your rubber ducky. Struggling back into the rain gear is about twice as hard if it's already wet and the skies have opened up.
|I took this on the way out of the park
Lightning was frequent and blinding if you happened to be looking up. Like I was for instance. Whenever I have to ride in that kind of weather I try not to think about it; after all, you probably wouldn't even know it if you got hammered by one of the big ones. A near miss might be slightly different though. Sizzle fry pop....
Any way I fumbled through the big bad storm and eventually arrived in Winslow AZ, just like in the song and checked into the questionable Quality Inn to dry out. The Bonnie doesn't rate such digs though and has to be content with a thin rain cover. Such is life for the inert machines of the world..
|Poor baby, has to sleep outside
So there you have it, another exciting fun-filled action-packed riot-est day on the road. Tomorrow will no doubt bring more of the same so stay tuned and in the mean time be kind to small furry critters. Rats excepted. You should kill those.

Hollywood, CA (PRWEB) November 13, 2011
Hollywood is finally giving videogame music the respect and accolades it deserves, and Toronto-based, Buoyant Sound Agency composer, David Logan, and a roster of Canadian composers are very well represented in the list of nominations for the Hollywood Music in Media Awards (HMMA) – the first major music awards event to recognize and honor excellence in musical composition for videogames, placing videogame music alongside Film & TV music in terms of its importance.
Brent Harvey, Executive Director of HMMA explains, "Last year, the video game industry generated 10 billion dollars, as did the film industry. Those numbers alone qualify video games equal to film in terms of commerce. The importance and impact of video game music is nothing short of astounding. The composers and artists that produce this music work intricately and tirelessly with the game developers to create impressive works of art. These soundtracks of video games have a significant and emotional impact, influencing the appreciation of music by engaged participants. 2009 was the first Hollywood Music In Media Awards, where video game music was recognized equally in terms of importance alongside Film & TV music. This year, the Grammy's added the category of 'Best Music in all forms of Media'. The HMMA does not follow trends, it sets them."
To game developers and industry insiders, Canadian composers' strong showing in Hollywood comes as no surprise. According to the Entertainment Software Association, "Canada has secured an international reputation as a source of high skilled talent with the third largest number of employees in the world; for being a 'full-service' location both on a national and even on a municipal level with hubs of video gaming and related activity."
Buoyant Sound Agency music director, David Logan, was excited to hear the news of his HMMA nomination for Best Score/Song in a Mobile Videogame. "I used to be based in Los Angeles and decided to move back to my hometown of Toronto because I love my city and I knew there was a community back home creating world-class videogames that I could dive into," David states. "For my nominated score, Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty: http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/captain-america-sentinel-liberty/id449767522, I worked with Disney Mobile and Marvel Entertainment, both of which are in LA, and they contracted with [game developer] Sarbakan, who is based in Quebec to create the game. So it's clear that Hollywood is aware of the talent here in Canada. We just hope we can bring home a win. Two of the three nominees in my category are Canadian, so the odds are with us!"
Canadians were nominated in three out of four HMMA categories that highlight musical achievement in videogames:
David A. Logan - Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty (Disney Mobile)
Isaias Garcia - Dream:scape (iOS)
Michael McCann – Deus Ex: Human Revolution (Eidos Montreal/Square Enix)
Michael McCann – Deus Ex: Human Revolution (Somethin Else Music Works)
The HMMA ceremony takes place at The Hollywood Highlands Center/Kodak Theater Complex in Hollywood, CA on November 17th. For a full list of categories and nominees, go to http://www.hmmawards.org/?page_id=2150.

My Top 10 Old-school Nintendo games
A little background. My family purchased the NES in 1986, when I was six years old. It came with R.O.B and Gyromite, which means we had to buy Duck Hunt and Super Mario Brothers on our own. My parents were clearly the better players in the beginning, but by the time the NES was getting phased out in 1991 I was beating pretty much every game I owned. (which is no small feat since these games were incredibly tough).
So here are the top ten NES games according to my own nostalgia.
1. The Legend of Zelda: In the days well before online walkthroughs this game captured the imagination of all Nintendo fans. A giant map. 9 Dungeons. Bosses. New weapons and items. And when you finally thwarted Ganon...SECOND QUEST!!! This game caused friends to compare notes, otherwise you would never complete the game. Conversations like: "Did you try burning the third bush over?" "Try using arrows instead of your sword." "Yeah I beat level 7, and I even drew a map!"
My confession is that although I beat the first quest, I got stuck on Death Mountain of the second quest cause I could never find the master key on level 8. Bastards.
2. Super Mario Brothers 3:This game created video game hype. Between getting publicity in movies and retailers charging over $70 for the game everyone wanted this game. It didn't disappoint with 8 levels of creative platforming, flying and even the rare Tanooki Suit. Without a save feature this game posed a great challenge until the world discovered you could warp using the "Zelda Whistle." And yes, I beat this game.
3. Final Fantasy(1): I know, how can it be a Final Fantasy if they made 11 more? (think of it as the Ultimate Fantasy but with alliteration) Although Dragon Warrior was an important RPG series, Final Fantasy defined what RPG's would be in the future. What stands out from this game? IT IS THE FREAKING HARDEST GAME OF MY LIFE!!! Leveling up: tedious and deadly. Dungeons: Grueling and deadly. Bosses: Mean and deadly. Let's put it this way, if you died you couldn't be revived at a save point(if you didn't have a spell). We had to drag your dead, worthless body through battlefields to a freaking TOWN to get you revived. Imagine that your White Mage takes a hard knock deep in a dungeon....if I would have been older I would have cussed this game out. Alot. Still, thoroughly enjoyable and I challenge every RPG fan to give it a go. And Yes, I beat this game. (Chaos had nothing on me!)
4. Mike Tyson's Punch Out:Before Tyson became a punch line, he was the most feared boxer both in real life and in video games. The lead up to Tyson is alot of fun. Each of the colorful characters you face has a tell, once you figure it out you can win the bout. Except with Tyson. His tell was a split second, and if he hit you he knocked you down. Thanks for playing, see you later. It was so stressful playing Tyson I would have to do it alone so I could concentrate.
And yes, I beat Tyson. Twice. Once by decision as an 8-year-old. Once by TKO when I was 18 at the challenge of my buddies. (Robert, Pat and David were my witnesses). In the world of video gaming I still hold beating Tyson and beating Chaos as two of the greatest feats.
5. Super Mario Bros.: The platformer that changed gaming. This game is so good I could pick it up now and still enjoy the challenge of it. Do I wants to use 2 warps and go straight to world 8, or do I want to slow play it and enjoy all the other levels. Yes I beat this game, but the Hammer Bros are still jerks.
6. TMNT II the Arcade Game: This was such a good game, we would actually go to arcades to play it. When it came to the NES.....Oh buddy. Good times. First, this was like the best cartoon series of its day. I mean seriously, who wasn't a Ninja Turtle for Halloween at least once? (I was Leonardo) Besides that, this was an awesome side scrolling fighter, with nice levels and competent bosses. The challenge of the game was just surviving, which I did. (Cause I beat this one too.)
7. Metroid: One part platformer, one part adventure. 35 parts freaky Sci-fi. This game was long and challenging. There is nothing worse than reaching your destination only to realize you need the freeze ray or wave beam or something crazy like that. And the actual Metroids.....totally unnecessary to make that many of them that difficult. I remember getting to Mother Brain, and I don't imagine myself giving up so close to the end, so I imagine I beat this one too (although I have no specific memory of it.....)
8. Mega Man 2: This is the only game on my list I didn't own. But I had friends that did, friends I visited often. Again, with no save feature this game was hard. Getting through 8 bosses just to get to the end levels was quite and accomplishment.....one that I didn't do. But still, stealing bosses weaponry and using them on other bosses? That's like an American dream of sorts.
9. RBI Baseball: I know there were tons of great (and not so great) baseball games on the NES, but this one stands out. This game was easy to pick-up and easy to enjoy with a friend. So what that the infielders couldn't make a throw across the diamond without it bouncing. Who cares? All I know is pick the Cardinals and steal some bases. You can't beat this game, but I was always second best to my base running maniac of a cousin John, who is still a jerk for all those defeats.
10. Gradius: Ok, clearly this and RBI baseball aren't the greatest games of all time. But they were really fun for me. This is a side-scrolling space shooting that included lots of power ups. The levels were very cool, even if the boss at the end was...well the same each time. But it was so addicting my extended family would fight over who got to play next (Until the 8 year-olds became the best, then the adults quit.) I know I beat this one, cause I think we took a picture!
Worst Game I owned: 10 Yard Fight. This game is an abomination to all things considered gaming. I wanted a football game, what I got was what the Japanese thought was football. Here is how the game worked. Snap to the quarterback who has a running back on each side who mimics your every move. You can either a) lateral it to a RB b) run upfield c) or throw it to the one receiver streaking downfield. If you passed and even one defender was in the line of flight, he intercepted it. (ridiculous) If you got a safety, they gave the wrong team the points (ridiculous) If you were kicking a field goal you could run all the way to your own end zone, kick it, and it would fly most slowly through the uprights (flubber?) A mistake of a purchase, I made up for it by buying Zelda next go around. And yes, I beat this game.
I hope this starts some discussion. If not, at least you know that I am awesome at video games.

How about games that Maureen beat that Ricky didn't because she's awesomesauce? (or, because various people deleted his games and he got tired of restarting... I WAS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ZELDA!)

While I agree with most of your picks I will disagree with you on one of your picks for the "baseball" pick I would have to go with Baseball Stars, it was one of the first where you could create your own team and then play in a league of your own choosing against another created team. The only problem I ever had was the doggone memory device would always erase halfway through a league!
Plus another one that might have to fall into consideration would be Tetris and if you only accept that as a "Gameboy" game then you would have to put Yoshi's Cookie in its place. You have to have at least one of these "puzzle games" entered into the mix. It just wouldn't be right to leave them out as predecesors to "This is for the MEAT!"

Oh buddy, I didn't forget about Tetris. But we played that on the SNES, so it will get mentioned later. Baseball Stars was great, I will give you that. I just didn't own it so I don't remember it as well. I owned MLB baseball, which was fun too.
Contra was fun, but I couldn't love a game that was impossible without the code, and easy with it.
But too true, we all still know the Konami code by heart.

Concerned: The Half-Life and Death of Gordon Frohman is a webcomic created by Christopher C. Livingston, parodying the first-person shooter video game Half-Life 2. The comic consists of game screenshots, with characters posed using Garry's Mod, a tool which facilitates manipulation of the Source engine used by Half-Life 2. The first issue was launched on May 1, 2005. The comic completed its run on November 6, 2006 with a total of 205 issues.
While Half-Life 2 takes the player through a dystopian future as protagonist Gordon Freeman, Concerned follows a similar path through the eyes of Gordon Frohman, a hapless, lethally clumsy oaf who arrives in the setting of the game a few weeks before Freeman. The comic's dark humor is derived from its contrasts with the game, and through references to the game's shortcomings. On several occasions in the comic, Frohman becomes the cause of various disastrous circumstances that Freeman will later encounter.
Concerned has been well received by critics and fans alike. Several reviews praised the attention to writing and presentation, as well as the comic's humor. Livingston has also reported uniformly positive relations with personnel at Valve, the developer company of Half-Life 2, who were pleased to have a comic based on their game

Samsung only had the many essential entertain for some-more than dual years
Samsung has reported a many essential entertain of business for over dual years interjection to a resurgent smartphone business.
The Korean firm's gain superintendence currently estimated profit for a second quarter of 2016 during 8.1 trillion KRW ($7 billion) on income of 50 trillion KRW, around $43 billion. That's above a 7.8 trillion KRW likely by analysts polled by Reuters, and that creates it a firm's most remunerative period since Q1 2014.
Samsung posted a plain 6.7 trillion KRW distinction on income of 49.8 trillion KRW in a prior entertain interjection to enlivening sales of a flagship Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge smartphones. The Korean company has not announced any central total yet, though a inclination have reportedly out-sold its top-of-the-range choice from a prior year thanks to a multiple of softened timing — rising a month progressing than common — softened supply sequence management, and a sincerely incremental updates that Apple put into a latest iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus. (That miss of iPhone halo facilities done Samsung's phones all a some-more compelling, so a speculation goes.)
After one month of sales, researcher organisation Counterpoint Research estimated that Samsung had shipped 10 million Galaxy S7 inclination worldwide so far, some 25 percent more than a Galaxy S6 did at a same point.
Apple's new iPhones are due after this year so it stays to be seen if Samsung's mobile division, and so a company's altogether finances, can continue in this certain capillary amid increasing competition.

Oh, and did I mention that next Tuesday I will be an aunt?!?! Utter insanity.
Being so busy, we've gotten into some serious food ruts. Stir fry is a staple. Chili, salads, tacos, roasted winter squash soup, and too much [delicious] take out often make regular appearances as well. Food ruts make me reminisce hard. Lately, I've been dreaming about sushi. But not just any sushi, we get American style sushi every few weeks here. This sushi is more authentic and so freakin' fresh is might just come back to life if you drop some water on it.
Rendezvous Sushi Cafe in West Bay, Roatan, Honduras is a tiny little place that is part sushi bar part art shop perched on the side of a hill. It is owned by an American and his French-Canadian wife. There are seats for about 10-15 people, so you have to make a reservation. Even if you end up being the only people, you need them. Don't plan for a quick meal, and bring plenty of cash. They have a menu with stuff that they usually have, but I recommend asking what is fresh and local. Those fishes will be the most delicious and won't be listed on the menu. One thing that they almost always have, but isn't listed is local tuna quickly seared with a sesame crust. Definitely order that.
|That's a lion fish, if you didn't know.
This past year, many restaurants on Roatan started serving up lion fish, a species that is invasive and has been attempting to wreak havoc on the local reefs. They've been doing a pretty good job of disrupting several species, but local divers and fisherman have banded together with special licensing to hunt these suckers. One of my top priorities of vacation was to eat lionfish. The first dish we had at Rendezvous was lion fish sashimi. It was so light and delicate with a sweet, mild flavor; the translucent flesh melts in your mouth. A light sprinkle of sesame seeds and a quick dip in soy made it perfection.
We ate quite a bit that night. I remember a conch something, it wasn't one that is on the menu, but the spicy conch that they regularly have is fantastic. The other stand out dish we had (which we ordered seconds of) was local marlin. It was super fresh, so it wasn't funky or oily (which can happen with marlin). It was meaty and assertive, similar to mahi mahi, and was dressed with a spicy sauce which complimented the heartiness well and didn't overpower the fish.
The wakame salad is always good, as is the coconut ginger soup. Order the house juice if they have it, it's wonderful. And all of the desserts are home made. There may not be a huge selection, especially if you are there in the summer which is low season, but you will not be disappointed in any dessert you order. Her fruit tarts are incredible, so it the chocolate cake. Last time, we had a key lime semifreddo that was perfect for a warm night with only the gentlest of breezes.
It was a last minute decision to go there 5 or 6 years ago, and has become one of the restaurants we absolutely have to go to now.

Marc Marquez left it late to post the fastest time in MotoGP FP3, as the Spaniard demoted team-mate Dani Pedrosa to second with his final flying lap in a dramatic morning session at Brno.
The reigning world champion's time of 1m 55.370s was enough to claim top spot by 0.171s, after Pedrosa had made the early running in the session, his 1m 55.541s coming with just over ten minutes gone. That lap preceded a fall for the Spaniard at turn eight, thankfully without harm.
The final order makes for pleasing reading for the Repsol Honda pairing that tested here in mid-July, but race pace suggests Movistar Yamaha pairing Valentino Rossi (third) and Maverick Viñales (fourth), Ducati's Andrea Dovizioso (fifth) and Johann Zarco (eighth) – an early crasher at turn three - aren't far away.
All men were able to run laps in the high 1m 56s / low 1m 57s, with Viñales perhaps the best placed, as he showed real improvements from yesterday, when he complained of a lack of braking and turning ability.
The top eight riders were closely packed together on the time sheets too, with Zarco's best lap just over half a second slower than Marquez's. After Dovizioso – Friday's fastest man -, Cal Crutchlow was sixth, with Aleix Espargaro benefiting from Aprilia's raft of updates, in seventh.
Jorge Lorenzo continued with Ducati's radical fairing, which aided his path to the ninth fastest time, while Loris Baz was an impressive tenth, despite crashing late on.
The session was but five minutes old when red flags were shown. Alvaro Bautista's Ducati GP16 was seen depositing fluid on the run to turn 10, with the Spaniard eventually falling in the gravel.
Marquez and Crutchlow both crashed on the fluid too, necessitating a stoppage as marshals replaced a trackside air-fence that Crutchlow's Honda had hit with real force.
Q1 will therefore feature Jonas Folger (eleventh), Andrea Iannone (twelfth), Bautista (15th), Danilo Petrucci (16th), who also ran a radical new Ducati fairing, and Scott Redding (19th), who crashed late on at turn five.

Siddharta concert in 3D
One of the most challenging 3D projects was shooting a concert of biggest Slovenian rock band – Siddharta. The main rule for shooting in 3D is closed aperture (f8, 11…) and the main rule to shoot concerts due to the lack of light is opened aperture (F 1.4 – 2.8), now do the math… But hey.. If it would be easy everyone would do it right…?
Extended Place3d team Peter Gedei, Samo Bešlagić, Aleš Pirec, Benjamin Rančič and myself, combined our powers and the result can be seen on Siddhartas live DVD in shops near you!

McDougall entry figures to be a short price
Trainer Pam McDougall has a solid one-two punch with Honey'n Roses and Among the Willows in Sunday's feature at Northlands Park. The one-mile conditional allowance race for 3-year-old fillies drew seven horses and will go as race 5.
Honey'n Roses would likely be favored on her own merits and being coupled with Among the Willows guarantees a short price for the McDougall pair.
They complement each other well. Honey'n Roses will likely be involved early, and Among the Willows figures to be heard from late. Beginning in a $7,000 nonwinners-of-two claiming race July 24, Honey'n Roses has used her good speed to win four straight races. In her last start, she cruised to an easy score in a 6 1/2-furlong second-level allowance race that had a $40,000 claiming option Sept. 17. Honey'n Roses also is versatile and her usual rider, Rafael Zenteno, has options if the pace is too hot. In her second win of her current streak, she won a one-mile $12,000 claiming race, so the added distance shouldn't be a problem.
While Honey'n Roses was moving up the ladder, Among the Willows was running with the best fillies at Northlands. After winning a first-level allowance race June 30, Among the Willows finished third behind Notoriously in the $50,000 Northland Park Oaks. She tried Notoriously again in the $50,000 Sonoma, but, like the rest of the field, she couldn't keep up, finishing a distant fifth. In her most recent start, she made a late move to finish a close third behind Disco Damsel in a second-level allowance race Sept. 19.
Malakwa looks like the main threat. Trained by Lianne Knechtel, Malakwa is coming off of a strong effort in the $50,000 Alberta Oaks on Sept. 18. Stretching out to a middle distance for the first time in the one-mile Oaks, she set the pace and then held on well to finish second to My Lavern. Malakwa undoubtedly will be part of the pace. In all seven of her starts, she has held the lead after the first quarter and only once has she failed to finish in the top three.
Disco Damsel took a big step forward in her win over Ochoa and Among the Willows in her latest start. Trained by Ron Grieves, Disco Damsel was making just her second start of the year and is eligible to continue her progress Sunday. In her initial start at the meet, she forced the pace before fading in a $32,000 optional claimer won by Honey'n Roses on Sept. 6.

United States District Court, N.D. Texas, Dallas Division
July 13, 2017
AIRCRAFT MECHANICS FRATERNAL ASSOCIATION, Plaintiff,v.SOUTHWEST AIRLINES CO., Defendant.
Sam A.
Lindsay, United States District Judge
the court are Plaintiff AMFA's Motion for Summary
Judgment (Doc. 38), filed January 22, 2016; and Defendant
Southwest Airlines Co.'s Cross Motion for Summary
Judgment (Doc. 40), filed February 12, 2016. After careful
consideration of the motions, briefs, appendix, record, and
applicable law, the court grants Defendant Southwest Airlines
Co.'s Cross Motion for Summary Judgment; denies Plaintiff
AMFA's Motion for Summary Judgment; and dismisses with
prejudice this action.
Procedural and Factual Background
November 11, 2015, Plaintiff Aircraft Mechanics Fraternal
Association ("Plaintiff" or "the
Union") brought this action against Defendant Southwest
Airlines Co. ("Defendant" or
"Southwest") to vacate a labor arbitration award
("Bloch Award") pursuant to the Railway Labor Act
("Act" or "RLA"), 45 U.S.C. §
151 et seq. Plaintiff is a labor union acting on
behalf of the mechanics ("Mechanics") employed by
Southwest. In Plaintiff's Petition to vacate the Bloch
Award, the Union contends that Arbitrator Richard Bloch
("Arbitrator Bloch") recognized but did not
follow a previous arbitration award-the Sauter Award. The
Union contends that Arbitrator Bloch, therefore, violated the
RLA and exceeded his jurisdiction under the parties'
Collective Bargaining Agreement ("CBA"), as the
RLA and CBA require the Sauter Award to be treated as final
and binding. The Union further contends that the court should
vacate the Bloch Award and remand this action for another
parties stipulated to the admission of the System Board of
Adjustment ("Board") proceedings into the record
and agreed that no discovery was necessary. Further, they
agreed that the issues presented in the Petition should be
addressed through cross-motions for summary judgment. On
January 22, 2016, Plaintiff moved for summary judgment.
Defendant filed a cross-motion for summary judgment and a
response to Plaintiff's motion for summary judgment on
February 12, 2016. Plaintiff filed its reply to
Defendant's motion for summary judgment on February 19,
2016. Defendant filed its reply to Plaintiff's motion for
summary judgment on February 26, 2016. Both parties agree
that there is no genuine dispute as to any material fact and
that there is a legal dispute that can be resolved by summary
judgment based on the applicable law.
court now sets forth the facts in accordance with the
standard in Section II of this opinion. Plaintiff and
Defendant are parties to a CBA that governs the terms and
conditions of the Mechanics' employment. Article 21 of
the CBA sets forth the process for resolving a grievance
arising over the interpretation or application of the
contract. First, the aggrieved employee must discuss a
possible solution for the grievance with his or her
supervisor or manager. J.A. 597. The supervisor or manager
then issues a grievance decision. Id. During the
discussion with his or her supervisor or manager, the
aggrieved employee may be represented by his or her shop
representative or local airline representative. Id.
The decision reached in this first step of the grievance
procedure "shall not constitute a precedent of any kind
unless otherwise agreed to by the Union and
[Southwest]." Id. The parties may also resolve
a grievance dispute "by the union or carrier agreeing
to a voluntary settlement of the grievance, or by the
grievant withdrawing the grievance" Pl.'s Pet. 6-7.
If the parties are unable to resolve the dispute through
discussion, the aggrieved employee's next step is to
submit an official Union grievance form to his or her
supervisor or manager. J.A. 597. The Union may appeal the
supervisor or manager's grievance decision to the Board.
Id. The Board consists of one member designated by
the union and one member designated by Southwest. Pl.'s
Pet. 7. Pursuant to Articles 21 and 22 of the CBA, a
Board's resolution of a grievance is "final and
binding" unless the parties agree otherwise.
Id. If the Board is deadlocked, Article 22 allows
the Union to appeal the Board's decision to an
arbitrator. Id. Under Article 22, a single impartial
arbitrator resolves the grievance after a contested
arbitration hearing. Id.
2, Section 12 of the CBA, provides an expedited process for
resolving subcontracting grievances. Under Article 2, Section
12, the Union may invoke expedited arbitration before the
Board sitting with a neutral arbitrator, after the matter is
grieved and the parties have attempted "to resolve
their dispute in conference." J.A. 543. "Article
2.12 operates in conjunction with Article 22."
Def.'s Resp. to Ct. Order on Clarification 2.
dispute arose between the parties in 2014 as to whether
Southwest was entitled to assign nonmaintenance brake riding
work to a third-party vendor instead of using the Mechanics.
Brake riding is a process of controlling an aircraft while it
is being towed. The aircraft is typically "powered down
and empty of passengers." Afoa v. China Airlines
Ltd, No. C11-0028-JCC, 2013 WL 12066088, at *1 (W.D.
Wash. Apr. 12, 2013).
When a plane is being towed, one mechanic is in the cockpit
riding the brakes of the aircraft. Another mechanic drives
the tow truck, which pulls or pushes the aircraft, depending
on which direction the tow truck is facing. One or two
mechanics act as wing walkers. During towing, it is necessary
for either the mechanic driving the tow truck or the mechanic
in the cockpit to be in radio contact with the control tower
in order to receive directions and instructions regarding
when and where it is safe for the towing to proceed.
Sprague v. United Airlines, Inc., No.
CIV.A.97-12102-GAO, 2002 WL 1803733, at *15 (D. Mass.
Aug. 7,
2002). Performing the brake riding work requires
"powering the aircraft[']s APU [auxiliary power
unit] and hydraulics, [and] configuring radios and
communicating with the tug operator and/or tower." J.A.
1760-61. In late 2014, Southwest notified the Union that it
would be assigning a portion of its nonmaintenance brake
riding work to a third-party vendor. As a result, Plaintiff
received hundreds of grievances against Southwest from its
Mechanics. The Mechanics contended that the nonmaintenance
brake riding, subject to some limitations, was within the
Mechanics' classification under the CBA's Scope
Clause, and, therefore, Southwest was prohibited from
contracting the work to a third-party vendor. Southwest
disagreed. The parties were unable to reach a grievance
settlement; therefore, they agreed to resolve the issue
through expedited arbitration pursuant to Article 2, Section
12 of the CBA. On January 30, 2015, the Union designated a
lead grievance for the class action grievance to move to
arbitration. Def.'s Resp. to Ct. Order on Clarification
2. The parties agreed to select Arbitrator Bloch as the
neutral arbitrator to sit on the Board. As the parties also
agreed that the matter would be expedited, the arbitrator was
to issue a decision no later than thirty days after the
parties' submissions.
address the parties' dispute, Arbitrator Bloch held
hearings on May 6, 7, 18, and 19, 2015. In its argument
before Arbitrator Bloch, the Union contended that the terms
of a 2001 System Board of Adjustment Award[1] ("Sauter
Award") were decisive with respect to the parties'
dispute. The Sauter Award resolved a dispute as to when
non-Mechanic employees could perform brake riding. Mechanic
Ken Sauter and another Mechanic grieved the issue, and, as
the issue was not resolved through the grievance process,
they appealed to the Board. On October 17, 2001, the Board
disposed of the dispute with the following decision:
At locations and shifts where there are no SWA Mechanics,
Ramp Supervision Personnel may ride the brakes for
repositioning. However, when [and] if such stations are
manned by SWA Mechanics, this work will be done by SWA
Per Article 2 para 3.
[Southwest] will continue to train Ground Operations
Supervisor from stations without Southwest Mechanics to brake
ride. It is mutually agreed that when and if Mechanics are
stationed that SWA Mechanics will perform said duties. Only
exception is if no Mechanic is available on a particular
shift, then [Ground Operations Supervisors] will assist in
the movement of the aircrafts.
Bloch considered the Sauter Award and determined that with
respect to brake riding it "in no way settles the issue
on exclusive jurisdiction throughout the Southwest system. It
may, with equal force, be seen as the parties' agreed on
rules as to the orderly management of a shared task. Whatever
the underlying intent [of the Sauter Award], the Disposition
is not one that survived subsequent labor agreements."
J.A. 1774. In deciding that the Sauter Award was
inapplicable, Arbitrator Bloch stated that the Sauter Award
is not a "global prohibition on the assignment of
non-Mechanics" but instead "reflects these
parties' practice of [] recognizing the Mechanics'
ownership of the task in some circumstances, " and
identifies other circumstances when others may perform the
nonmaintenance brake riding. J.A. 1773. Arbitrator Bloch
reasoned that the Sauter Award reflects a ...

Merrill Garbus's best yet, and hardest hitting album. Birdbrain, her debut, showcased some wonderful home recordings. On WhoKill, Garbus got comfortable in a full-fledged recording studio, and on Nikki-Nack she moved on from found sounds to synths and more percussion. Now, her sound has also become heavy and complex, and is some of the best danceable rock I've heard in a long time.
Always feminist, even when, on "Water Fountain" and "Left Behind," she's calling out women. She's always political, even writing about peace and love in a hippie kind of way. Even her put downs are full of common sense and respect. These songs have more content than most in this genre.
Nikki-Nack is probably her breakthrough album, even more than WhoKill which just started the process. I loved WhoKill, but Nikki-Nack will appeal to a wider range of people, especially if, as I hope, some of these songs get remixed. If you're a fan like me, you will thrill to this album. If you're a newcomer, get out on the floor, dance up a storm, and think while you're doing it. https://www.facebook.com/tuneyards

During our second night in PA, we opted for a bed and breakfast. The Amethyst Inn to be exact. It was my first time ever staying in a B&B, and I must say I am officially hooked! So perfect. As you can see, the owners did an amazing job at decorating the house. They had little treats waiting for us and hot drinks whenever we wanted. Of course I chose coffee.. Green Mountain coffee. Yum! It was so relaxing to just sit by the fireplace with my cup of joe. The bed and breakfast was located right outside of Lancaster, in Adamstown.. Antique Capital, USA!! I was in heaven. Wait til you see even more photos come up on the blog!
P.S. - Here are some snapshots of the DELICIOUS breakfast we enjoyed in the morning. Broiled grapefruit, croissants, cinnamon rolls, granola cereal, and this brie cheese/veggie casserole. The owner was a great host, server, and even jokester.. ha. Thank goodness we did not have a boring host. I really enjoyed my time there, and I was even a little sad when we left.
