Central American treats
The plan? To explore Central America on a budget... Starting in Guatemala and heading to major sights, including from Tikal across into Mexico to see Palenque. Travelling down through Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua to Costa Rica. The budget is small, but so far reasonable (I am currently at language school in Guatemala). Travelling in pairs/groups seems to be cheaper as we can share rooms in guesthouses where there are no hostels. It also takes the stress out of travelling the chicken buses! Transport will predominantly be buses, itenary is flexible, as are dates, and there's the possibility of stopping places to do some voluntary work along the way if we find something we want to do.

Get Over 250 Recipes
The BE Living Cookbook
With all the focus on the health benefits of yogurt, sauerkraut and other fermented foods, how do you choose the products with the best health punch? Learn the best probiotic choices here.
While you may not hear a lot of buzz about fermented foods and drinks, you have probably heard all the buzz about probiotics.
In fact, Dannon has gone a long way to talk about probiotics with their Dannon Activa™ yogurt. Dannon Activa™ is a lowfat yogurt that claims to decrease intestinal transit time. But does it deliver the health benefits that will build your inner ecosystem?
In this article, I will cover the popular probiotic foods and drinks on the market, along with the best probiotic products for a healthy inner ecosystem that promotes inner energy and outer beauty.
Probiotic means "for life" and they do indeed have some important life giving qualities. Probiotics are the healthy microflora (beneficial bacteria and yeast) that keep you healthy and strong. With enough of them in your intestines, they can boost your immunity, keep you looking beautiful and help you digest foods.
But not all probiotics are created equal. In fact, some studies have found that only half of all probiotic products actually have the healthy bacteria listed on their labels.1
However, there are many GREAT choices for probiotic foods and beverages on the market! At Body Ecology, we have long promoted the benefits of all natural fermented foods and drinks. There are several very good options on the market, but unfortunately some very poor choices as well.
Whenever I look at a probiotic product, I want to know whether it will build a healthy inner ecosystem thriving with friendly microflora without feeding pathogenic bacteria and yeast.
Here are some of the popularly known fermented foods and drinks, along with our Body Ecology comments:
Yogurt -The most popular fermented food in the US is best when it is made with "live active cultures." Some yogurts on the market are "heat treated after culturing," and this causes them to lose two major health benefits:
(1) The heat treated or pasteurization process kills the lactase, which would have made the diary more digestible
(2) Heat treating also kills the live active cultures.
Additionally, if the label shows less protein and more sugar or stabilizers, the yogurt is lower in nutritional value. Many brands of yogurt on the market today are more like processed desserts than beneficial yogurt.
Body Ecology Says: We are not big yogurt fans and really prefer that people drink kefir (see below for the reasons). The better-quality plain yogurt - the one with the fewer ingredients (e.g., just milk and live active cultures) has the most nutritional benefits (protein, calcium, live cultures, easier to digest than milk). Since most yogurts are pasteurized, we recommend making your own yogurt at home with organic raw milk from grass-fed, hormone-free cows. Add Stevia for a sweet taste that does not feed candida.
Dannon Activa, while containing live cultures, also has some pretty awful sugars including fructose, corn starch, and modified corn starch. There are other questionable ingredients added for flavor and consistency. Like most other yogurts sold in your store, it also is pasteurized. All of these things lower Dannon Activa's nutritional value and all that sugar will definitely feed pathogenic microorganisms, like candida.
Kefir - Kefir is still the leader in nutrition when compared to yogurt. While traditional recipes for yogurt contained live active cultures, the bacteria were transient beneficial bacteria (e.g., Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus). These do not colonize your colon. The bacteria and beneficial yeast in kefir can actually colonize the intestinal tract, and this makes all the difference in the world since it's one key reason you are eating this deliciously-sour fermented food.
Body Ecology Says - Making your own kefir at home with a fermented food and drink starter is the best way to get the most health benefits from kefir. We recommend adding kefir from cow or goat milk (raw is best) to your diet in stage 2 of Body Ecology.
Sauerkraut - Last year, BBC News reported that sauerkraut could cure the avian flu (bird flu) and other studies show it reduces the risk of breast cancer. Unfortunately, most commercially prepared sauerkrauts found on grocery shelves today are pasteurized (which destroys precious enzymes), contain vinegar and have added refined salt (mineral-depleted), which eliminates any health benefits.
Body Ecology Says: To obtain really potent amounts of beneficial bacteria from sauerkruat, we have always recommended cultured vegetables, which you can make at home using a fermented food and drink starter.
A crucial, general rule of thumb to remember is that the mass-process sauerkrauts, pickles and other foods that try to mimic traditionally fermented foods do not provide the benefits that live, enzyme and microflora-rich REAL fermented foods provide.
Cultured Butter - Butter is best when made from raw milk from cows who are grass fed. Butter can also be cultured (fermented) and it is an excellent and delicious way to get more probiotics into your diet. If you can, avoid butter that is pasteurized for the same reasons we mentioned above in our discussion on yogurt.
You may be able to purchase raw, cultured butter in some health food stores, but most likely you are going to have to make it at home by using Body Ecology's Culture Starter. If you have young children at home, they love helping and seeing the raw cream change into butter.
Body Ecology Says: Organic, raw unpasturized cultured butter is an excellent way to obtain some of the probiotics you need and it's also a great source for conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), a powerful anti-carcinogen and essential fatty acid.
Miso - This fermented soy product from Japan is made of soy beans and koji, a culture starter made of beneficial molds, yeasts and lactic acid bacteria. Miso, unless it has been pasteurized, contains live beneficial microflora.
Body Ecology Says: Miso is an excellent fermented food for stage two of Body Ecology. Many people also do well on it in stage one. It is an excellent antiviral.
Kombucha - Increasingly available in Whole Foods Market and other health food stores, kombucha is a fermented tea. Whether thought of as a mushroom, plant or Chinese tea, kombucha has long been valued in many cultures of the world for its healing properties. It is fermented with a starter of yeast and other microorganisms.
Body Ecology Says: We are still doing testing on Kombucha. Some people have trouble with kombucha because they are sensitive to its airborneyeast, which is different from beneficial strains of yeast used in other probiotic drinks. Additionally, some kombucha teas can have too much sugar and will make your blood more acidic, and elevate yeast and fungal infection.
Convenient Probiotic Drinks: With today's busy lifestyles, more people are starting to demand on-the-go convenient probiotic drinks. Many new ones are coming on the market. Look for products with a natural source of vitamins, minerals, amino acids and enzymes, along with beneficial bacteria (likeLactobacillus acidophilus and Lactobacillus delbreukii) and beneficial yeast (like Sacharomyces boulardii and Saccharomyces cerevisiae).
We've researched the best probiotics to build your healthy inner ecosystem and enhance your outer beauty. TryDong Quai and CocoBiotic, your best bets for probiotic drinks that fit your on-the-go lifestyle.
Body Ecology Says: Our dissatisfaction with the quality of healthy, effective probiotic products on the market AND requests for convenient options from our customers led us to creating our own line of probiotic liquids: Dong Quai and CocoBiotic. We also highly recommend and offer BE Wholegrain Liquidand Liquid Spirulina.
You can learn more about the health, weight loss and beauty benefits of all of these probiotic liquids by reading: The Many Healthy Uses of Probiotic Drinks You Likely Never Heard of -- and Recommended Serving Sizes
Whether do-it-yourself or convenience-oriented, there are many ways to add fermented foods to your diet. The best of these healthy foods and drinks are so critical to your vitality, energy and longevity that they are worth seeking out.
In fact, they may be your number one ally in your quest to age youthfully and healthfully.

Kevin Tancharoen has the Internet sensation of the moment with his faux trailer for "Mortal Kombat," a film he would like to make but has no deal in place for. Tancharoen is the director of "Fame," which might not sound like the perfect fit for a "Mortal Kombat" reboot, but fans are going ga-ga for the finished product, which stars Michael Jai White, Jeri Ryan, Lateef Crowder, Ian Anthony Dale and Matt Mullins. We caught up with Tancharoen for five questions.
GB: The trailer is a sensation and one reason is it's extremely polished. Tell us about the making of the video and the resources you used.
KT: Well, I have been thinking about a reboot of "Mortal Kombat" for some time now and I saw this as an opportunity to showcase that I could handle a genre picture. The technology is so available now that I feel like not picking up the camera and carrying out your passion is a mistake. So I called up all my friends and gave them the pitch to shoot this in two days … and luckily they agreed. We did this on a shoestring budget — my own $7,500 — in two days at Lacy Street Studios with everyone donating their time. It was such a good environment on set since everyone was there for the passion … not the money. It took me about two and a half weeks from inception to get everyone in line and all the pieces organized. We shot it on a Saturday and Sunday, and I took a month to edit it. All the visual FX were also done by a group of amazing people who understood what I was trying to do. I was really fortunate that everyone was willing to run and gun this project with me.
GB: What's your fanboy background? How many times have you played Mortal Kombat in your life?
KT: I played Mortal Kombat 1, 2 and 3 more times then I could count. I used to go to a local arcade and just wait in line to try and beat the big kids. At the time, the Internet wasn't around to learn the fatalities … so you had to kind of had to be in this special club to learn certain moves. I grew up a fanboy who was obsessed with Mortal Kombat, Ninja Turtles, Power Rangers and Spawn. I've always been immersed in that world, and I even got a black belt in karate because of it. Making fanboy movies is what I have always wanted to do. When I was 13, I enrolled in creature-making class with Jordu Schell because I dreamed of being the next Stan Winston. Then I got into the dance and choreography world when I was 16, and that kind of took off. Since I was a technical guy I ended up doing some remixes, video editing and stage direction for world tours with artists like Britney Spears, 'N Sync, Madonna, Jessica Simpson and Christina Aguilera. That kind of crash-course training made me learn a lot of programs like Pro Tools, Avid, Logic, Final Cut Pro and an MPC. All of those skills eventually helped me on my path to seeking out a directing career.
GB: What's your great hope as far as the opportunities that this massive audience might present for you?
KT: Well, I knew that since most of my professional background comes from music and performance, I was going to quickly be put into a box. In order for me to make the kind of movies I wanted … I had to do it myself first. So I am hoping that this proves that I am capable of handling this type of material.
GB: Trailers like this and comic books seem to be the best way for creators outside of the Hollywood circuitry to catch the attention of decision-makers. Do you think we might see a point where these new-form auditions actually become part of the studio process?
KT: Absolutely. I am a huge fan of social networking and taking advantage of technology. We live in a world where anyone is able to showcase his or her work directly to the consumer. The possibilities are endless. However, there are risks to that approach as well. The fans could absolutely hate what you have to offer. It's something that I was very nervous about since fanboys are very tough critics. It was a risk I knew I had to take, and I'm glad I did. The feedback has been so positive, and I am thrilled.
Here's the trailer, but be warned that it's a bit bloody and intense …

A new beer, brewed by veterans to help veterans, is launching right here in Chicago.
Veteran Beer went on sale today in Illinois and Indiana.
The idea for Veteran Bee rwas dreamed-up by a Chicagoan and former navy pilot Paul Jenkins. Paul is a disabled vet himself who saw action in the first Gulf War.
Paul came home and noticed some things he really didn't like: A soaring suicide rate among America's service members and a high rate of veteran unemployment which is higher still among disabled vets.
So Paul went into business and made it his new mission to change some things.
"Our idea being that we would seek to employ as many veterans as we could," he says.
Paul and some pals set to work. The core group was all disabled veterans.
Eric Rine, another pilot who flew for the Marines, has studied brewing and knows the value military service can bring to private enterprise."
"It promotes a work ethic," Eric says. "It promotes a sense of accountability and responsibility that really is very, very difficult to match."
In July, the founders of the Veteran Beer company laid out their business plan over a beer. They already knew who they wanted to hire and how they wanted to help.
For now, Veteran Beer is only available in Illinois and Indiana, but a piece of each sale goes to support veterans' programs nation-wide.
And of course, the more they sell the more vets they can hire. They'd like to expand and hire nationwide, and if first-day sales are any indication, they probably will.

LYNCHBURG, VA. – Presbyterian College women's basketball guard Cortney Storey has earned Big South All-Tournament Team honors, the conference announced on Sunday.
The junior from Fayetteville, Tennessee averaged 18.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, 5.0 assists, and 2.5 steals in PC's Conference Tournament games against High Point and Tourney Champion UNC Asheville. Storey led the Blue Hose in their opening game against the third-seeded Panthers with 15 points, four rebounds, four assists, and a steal in a complete-game effort. She shot 6-of-19 from the field and 3-for-8 from the free-throw line.
Against No. 7 Asheville on Saturday, Storey led all scorers with 22 points as she logged another 40-minute game. PC's leading scorer this season made 8-of-12 from the floor, including 2-for-3 from distance, and converted 4-of-8 from the line. She added five boards, six assists, and four steals in the loss.
"We were picked fifth, we came in sixth," said Storey following Saturday's loss to the Bulldogs. "To make it to the semifinal game, I think it shows that we are here to play and we are here to win and I think that next year it will definitely propel us to even more success."
"We put a lot on her shoulders," added Coach Todd Steelman. "She never complains. Never, never complains. I think maybe once that I can remember all year that she said she needed a sub. Not only is she handling so much responsibility with ball handling and scoring, she handles a lot of the defensive load as well, so we're really proud of her. I'm thankful I have her for another year."

Swiss charged in Singapore over Malaysia's 1MDB saga
A Swiss banker was charged in Singapore on Thursday with money laundering and other offences related to an international corruption scandal involving neighbouring Malaysia's state fund 1MDB.
Allegations that huge sums were misappropriated from the Malaysian state fund triggered a scandal which has embroiled Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak, who has so far weathered the resulting political storm.
Jens Fred Sturzenegger, 42, who headed the Singapore branch of Swiss lender Falcon Private Bank, was slapped with six charges for allegedly failing to report suspicious transactions totalling $1.7 billion in March 2013.
Najib Razak has been embroiled in a corruption scandal involving the state fund 1MDB ©MANAN VATSYAYANA (AFP/File)
One transaction alone involved $1.265 billion.
Sturzenegger also faces 10 charges of giving false information to Singapore authorities in relation to their investigation into the use of the city-state's banking system as a conduit for the transfer of illicit funds involving 1MDB.
His lawyer Tan Hee Joek told reporters that Sturzenegger is expected to plead guilty when he appears in court on January 11. He is currently free on bail.
Three Singaporean private bankers from Swiss lender BSI have already been jailed by a Singapore court in relation to the scandal.
BSI and Falcon Bank were kicked out of Singapore last year for what regulators called massive lapses in financial controls.
Singapore, a regional financial hub known for its transparency and strong stance against corruption, has launched the investigation into alleged unlawful fund flows linked to 1MDB.
Among the Singaporeans jailed last year was Yeo Jiawei, who was sentenced to 30 months for witness tampering and obstructing the 1MDB probe.
It was revealed during Yeo's trial that he worked closely with Malaysian financier Low Taek Jho, also known as Jho Low, a family friend of Najib.
Najib founded the 1MDB fund while Low helped set it up and played a key role in its decisions.
Both men have strongly denied any wrongdoing.

When i say Money i mean decent money ,,,make living out of it ?
I don't know (sorry).
But it seems very unlikely, surely?
Given the legal position over forex trading in India, why would someone with enough trading skills, experience and capital to make a living out of it choose forex as the instrument to trade (rather than, say, futures or the Nifty index)?
So my strong hunch would be that the answer's "no" (not retail traders, I mean), but I have no factual information to offer.
You've got to be kidding me... right
Another post hidden for no real reason hehe
i guess babypips is having a moment
I guess we should all stop replying out of fear that if we say HELLO it might get flagged
Oh well. what's the point in replying to this stuff anymorewho are we helping ?why do i even bother
i suppose what i am to learn from this is ...... if a newbie asks a question like "do any indians make money in forex"
I SUPPOSE I AM TO IGNORE THEM hehe
yeah... Real productive site we have here
I'LL LEAVE YOU ALL TO IT... ok
Well, I am not from the India! But I have few Indian friends who are making regular money from this financial market! Then what?
@Luke_Ronchias for ...
well.. Then... the OP gets his answer.
but to add more clarifyHow much are they making regularly ?
Sorry guys i didnt mean to set any panic ... I am a 33 yr old guy . around 11 years back in 2007 ( dont even really remember that well ) i learned about forex . i think it was the time when the tsunami hit japan . I was looking to do many things on the internet .. i have done things related to internet marketing .,Seo , outsourcing,hacking(Security) , i put some money on GJ pair and lost my account within few weeks . it was very volatile . Now i have got a job in a bank . technically i am not allowed to trade in forex since i am a government employee but i can always make an account in my mothers name and start trading .. Forex is something which never got out of my head even when i didnt do anything for like 10 yrs or so .. i want to get back into this ... i can invest very little money to start with maybe 500 usd but i can invest about 2 - 3 years of time just to learn .. I was kind of looking for some motivation ..so was trying to find some indian chap . Sorry if i just created a sh!tstorm .
I do.Fortunately i make it when players win & make it when they lose, so it's a groove-a-liscious win-win.
hey apache rider for how long u been doing it ?
hehe, i love it APACHE RIDER commenting on INDIANS
For many moons when the nations roamed free & Custer was but a glint in his momma's eye.It sometimes seems that long anyway!
@apache_rideroh i see, You're one of these THEME guys like Viper hehe
ok mate, here is tribute to you form the 80'swas definitely one of my favourites at the time
now, if you will say that this is Cherokee and not Apache
ok then Try this on for sizeAPACHE
okay anyone else got any inputs ?
so... CONCLUSION
there are some, but NOT MANYthe Majority don'tthis is what he have seen here.unless someone has something else to add
yet to recieve a reply from any indian
maybe these posters here were just bots and you never really received a reply from anyone LOL
Mate, like i saidthere are not many, there are actually very few. that's the truth of it.but you continue on finding out hard facts from people who actually have... by all means
Unfortunately, I don't know the exact answer! But, I am sure it'll be more than couple of years!

Coming soon: Google's taxi-driver software to guide you through jams!November 10th, 2010 - 5:48 pm ICT by ANI
London, Nov 10 (ANI): Ever marvelled at a taxi-driver's knowledge of a city's short cuts? Well, you can now be happy, as soon you would be able to take advantage of that know-how in your own car.
Initial tests of a virtual cab driver have suggested that it could shave over 10 per cent off journey times through crowded urban streets, reports New Scientist.
The system, known as T-Drive, starts by monitoring the routes taken by cabbies at different times of day.
To test their idea, the researchers used three months of movement data, representing 400 million kilometres of travel, from a fleet of 33,000 taxis in Beijing.
The taxi trajectories were merged to reveal the roads that cab drivers prefer. Given a request to navigate between any two points in the city, the system could then choose a route based on the roads that are popular with cabbies at that time of day.
For a real-world test, the Microsoft engineers asked a pair of drivers to travel between two locations in Beijing: one was given a route suggested by T-Drive, the other used Google Maps.
Averaged over 30 trials, the two systems produced routes that were roughly the same in length. But T-Drive seemed to know how to avoid stoppages: it produced average drive times of 23 minutes, almost 4 minutes faster than Google Maps.
Yu Zheng, an engineer at Microsoft Research Asia in Beijing, said the advantage comes from the drivers' intimate knowledge of Beijing streets.
The cabbies know which traffic lights are slow to change and which junctions get snarled up during rush hours.
Zheng presented his work at the ACM Sigspatial International Conference on Advances in Geographic Information Systems in San Jose. (ANI)

Quick Reference
(1960– )
British motor-racing champion who emulated the success of his father, Graham Hill.
Damon Hill took up motor-cycle racing in 1979 and graduated to Formula 1 motor racing in 1992 with Brabham. Driving with the Williams team, Hill won three Grand Prix in 1993, six in 1994, four in 1995, and finally eight in 1996 to become World Drivers' Champion. Hill's break with Williams to join a new constructor effectively left the field clear for his rivals Michael Schumacher and David Coulthard in the 1997 season.

How to change multiple build mode settings by one operation(CS+)
Last Updated:06/21/2017
I am using the CS+ for CC integrated development environment. I create multiple build modes in a project. I want to apply some setting to the multiple build modes by one operation. Is there any way to do that?
In CS+ for CC V4.00.00 or later, the [Change property value for all build modes at once] item is provided in the [Build Mode] category in the [Common Options] tab of the build tool property.
You can set this item to [Yes] to apply the value set in the property to all build modes.
However, you need to be careful with enabling this item because the setting value might not be appropriate for other build modes.
For details about the common options of the build tool property, see the relevant Build Tool Operation manual for each family.

|Finance Bill
Mr. Frank Roy (Motherwell and Wishaw): If the right hon. Gentleman looks at the top of page 181 of the Bill, he will find a definition of a room which will help him.
Mr. Jack: I am always willing to be educated, but there is no definition in the part of the Bill that I am considering. Why is a flat defined as four rooms? I accept that it states that
Mr. Harry Barnes (North-East Derbyshire): It sounds as if it is exactly the same as the definition in the census, which specifies what should be excluded. That is precisely what the right hon. Gentleman asked for.
Mr. Jack: ``It sounds as if'' is a good description. If the Government are trying to encourage the development of properties in the high street, the provisions contain an enormous amount of unnecessary detail.
I was helpfully referred by the hon. Member for Motherwell and Wishaw (Mr. Roy) to the reference to
Why is there no provision in the schedule for allowances to be transferred to subsequent purchasers, by reference either to the price that is paid or to the unrelieved residue of the vendor's expenditure? That is an important technical point but has not been dealt with. Finally, I note that new section 393E(6) says that the tables of notional rents can be amended by Treasury regulations. Will the Minister clarify what the review period will be between the Bill being enacted and the reviews taking place? The property market can be extremely volatile and, for greater certainty, people will want to know when the reviews are likely to occur.
The Paymaster General (Dawn Primarolo): I implore the right hon. Member for Fylde to read the entire schedule before trying to find problems in it. This is a modest proposal, which fits into the package of measures included in the Bill and, particularly, with the recommendations made by the Rogers report. From 1992 to 1995, the Conservative Government, by way of a grant scheme, followed the same objectives, using many of the same criteria after advice from the relevant Departments. Their scheme was a modest success, but was criticised because it was inflexible and used an annual grant, as opposed to an allowance with the cost benefits of a capital allowance.
I do not know what the make-up of communities is like in the right hon. Gentleman's constituency, so I will give the Committee an example from mine. Several estates, which make up the constituency council estates, are situated toward the edge of the city and have shopping precincts. Over the years, those shopping precincts have declined with the change in shopping habits that we have seen throughout Great Britain. Many of the shops had accommodation over them, which has now fallen into disuse or is used for storage only. Therefore, it will cost to bring the accommodation back into use. With the pressure for land, particularly on greenfield sites, and the desire that more people have to live in their communities, the proposal will assist and encourage those who own such properties to make the conversion and bring the properties back into residential use.
Mr. Andrew F. Bennett (Denton and Reddish): The Paymaster General said that the Conservative scheme for giving grants was a modest success. Will she put a figure on that and tell us how many flats the Government's scheme hopes to convert? As shops are no longer viable in many cases, why is it impossible to include ground floor accommodation?
Dawn Primarolo: I do not have figures to hand on the success of the Conservative scheme. I was being generous; I understand that it was modest but successful, and I am not claiming any more for this proposal. We expect that it will help to support the conversion of around 1,300 flats a year. That is obviously a small figure in terms of housing demand, but the package is strong in helping to regenerate areas.To respond to my hon. Friend's point, we wanted the measure specifically to deal with the conversion of properties that have fallen into disreputeI mean disuse. There are other ways in the tax system of helping conversions generally. The package in the budget responds to many of the Rogers proposals.
Given that a limit had to be picked, we picked four storeys on the advice of the DETR. We are not aiming to help the conversion of high-rise properties, and that limit was considered reasonable, given the kind of buildings that are liable to be converted.
The same is true of the reasoning behind setting the cut-off point at 1980. The background advice to us on the type of conversions that might occur, and the profile of what was likely, suggested that that was a good cut-off point.
The balancing event time limit of seven years was chosen because, under the terms of the schedule, seven years is the duration of a lease for short-term letting. If the property is disposed of within that period, the interest in the property is surrendered, and the question of the allowances comes back into play. After seven years it does not matter. The limit was set to ensure that the accommodation stays in use for a reasonable period.
We are not seeking to subsidise the conversion of high-value, expensive properties that would have been converted anyway. We are trying to use the resources specifically to bring about regeneration in parts of the property market that need encouragement and push, where the financial encouragement for conversion is not as great.
The levels of notional rent considered to denote a flat of high value were again set on the basis of advice. The hon. Member for Croydon, South is rightthis is a crude measure. We were advised by the DETR that those were sensible levels, given current market rents. The limits concern only rents, not service charges, because higher service charges tend to apply in properties of a higher value.
In response to the right hon. Member for Fylde, I can say that we need to keep a careful watch on this proposal. We have specific ends to which we hope it will contribute, in terms of the regeneration of rundown areas. It will not achieve that regeneration by itself, but as part of a series of measures.
Mr. Nick St. Aubyn (Guildford) rose
Dawn Primarolo: I shall just finish my response to the right hon. Member for Fylde. I have forgotten my point now, so I shall give way and hope that I can remember by the time I get back up.
Mr. St. Aubyn: I apologise for interrupting the Minister's train of thought. If I am reading the schedule correctly, it states that a one-bedroom studio, renting for £350 a week, is not high value. Is the hon. Lady saying that a studio flat in London with a value of £250,000 is not, in the Government's view, a high-value flat?
Dawn Primarolo: I repeat to the hon. Gentleman what I said to the Committee, because I would not claim to be an expert on the level of rents in the Greater London area. We are advised by those who collect the information that those are reasonable figures. That is also true of the regional figures.
6.15 pm
We are specifically trying to remove the yuppie elementI cannot think of any other way to put itin regeneration and assistance areas. Yuppie development will happen anyway. We are trying to remove it from specific areas only, so we are not discriminating against yuppies, as the hon. Gentleman might think that I am implying. Development in such areas may not be economic, and may need some encouragement.
I was not surprised by some of the comments made by the right hon. Member for Fylde about what constitutes a ground floor and a basement. People are reasonably sensible, and understand the ground floor to be the level at which one enters the propertyunless one has tunnelled one's way in, of course.
Mr. Bennett: There is a danger that the Paymaster General is putting too much emphasis on the south of England and not enough on the north of England, where an awful lot of buildings are on hillsides. There might be a ground floor shop at the front, but another ground floor at the back might be entered from the hillside.
Dawn Primarolo: My hon. Friend is right to correct me, as the way in which one enters the property is important. In Bristol, one enters the house in which I live on the ground floor, but that has become the first floor by the time one reaches the back of the house. However, capital allowances and assistance have worked perfectly well in relation to the issue. The Committee is making a meal of the proposition that people who are perfectly capable of understanding and developing regeneration cannot, when looking at a property, determine the ground floor from the first floor. The distinction is clear. I have answered the right hon. Member for Fylde on what counts as a room by referring him to the schedule, which defines that.
We expect people to be sensible. The tax system cannot be absolute and is not designed to be. The schedule gives clear indicators about the type of development that we want. I am delighted that the Committee thought it so important to discuss the matter at some length, and I do not want to give the impression that the schedule is somehow skewed towards London. The reverse is true. Constituencies such as mine and others elsewhere in the country will benefit enormously from a little extra piece of the jigsaw in assisting regeneration packages in our local communities. I sincerely hope that the Committee will now agree to the schedule.
Mr. St. Aubyn: I welcome you to the Chair, Mr. O'Hara, as this is the first opportunity that I have had to address you. I apologise for the fact that my duties as a member of a Select Committee prevented me from attending earlier this afternoon.
I was interested to hear the Paymaster General's views on the fact that a flat that costs around £300,000that would be the case for one in Greater London with four rooms rented for £480 a weekis not of high value. At £300,000, such flats are subject to inheritance tax and high levels of stamp duty. So that we understand the Government's point of view, will she confirm that they are happy for homes that are not of high value to be subject to inheritance tax and the highest rates of stamp duty?

A look at three different reasons for making bad choices and how to overcome them.
This is one of the most common questions my clients ask me. There may be as many different answers as there are people asking but I find that many fit into these three categories:
1. To see ourselves differently. Some people convince themselves that they are a reflection of the person they are with. They may have a belief that says, "If my partner is attractive or successful, then I feel attractive or successful". But there are a couple of problems with this belief.
First, we are not taking responsibility for seeing ourselves in the positive way we want to be seen. And then we need to get that external validation based on who we are partnered with. Wouldn't it be better if I could get that need met in myself first before I seek a partner? Then I don't have to rely on someone else's traits to define me. Because when we do that and the person goes away, what happens to our definition of ourselves?
Secondly, we don't see our partner clearly for who he/she is if we are focused on how their 'success' defines us. We need them in order to see ourselves a certain way so we fail to look at who they really are.
2. To heal old wounds from the past. Sometimes we have deep seated beliefs about ourselves that come from our childhood. Often, we aren't even aware that we hold these beliefs. For example, I have a client who was a middle child and was always 'good' because his siblings had lots of issues that challenged his parents and he stayed under the radar. He has a core belief that he isn't supposed to 'be seen' and he keeps picking narcissistic women who are so focused on themselves that they don't really see him. This is what Freud called the Repetition Compulsion. A person keeps choosing partners that reenact the original wound in an attempt to get it right this time. The obvious problem here is that they can't get it right because it's set up to fail from the beginning. A better strategy is to get some relationship coaching or counseling to identify these patterns and learn how to heal instead of repeating it.
3. Denial. Who hasn't employed a little denial in their relationships? Sometimes a small, healthy dose of not looking at reality is helpful in accepting our partner for who they are. By pushing away from our conscious attention those things that might be annoying, we are focusing on the positive aspects we love about the person. But the big difference in that scenario is choice. We are aware of the things we choose not to focus on.
But denial is a way of staying unconscious about these things. For example, if I value honesty and I see my partner cheating people in business, do I notice this? Am I honest with myself? Or do I make excuses internally? What are some reasons a person might chose to deny what is in front of them? Here are some examples from my clients and my life:
This person has other qualities that I really value
I am already invested in this relationship
I am in love
It's not that bad
I think that each of these statements has an underlying second part…."and I am afraid that I won't be able to find someone else to love me who does not do that".
So we close our eyes and move forward and guess what? The day always arrives when that comes back to bite us in the butt! Now my partner is being dishonest with me.
Ending a relationship can be difficult. But not denying what is before our eyes early in the relationship will save a lot of heartache down the road.

These are nice looking grips that fit well. Only problem for me is they are a smaller diameter than what I prefer.
I put these on my bagger to go to Sturgis this year. Easy to put on, as advertised. 3400 miles later, these grips were a good choice! Comfortable, even in the heat of South Dakota. Get em, put em on. you will like em!
These grips are really comfortable and look great. My hands do not get fatigued using the Avon grips.
great looking .the feel of the grip is nice.give you the feel of the old school grips but with nice lookin shiny ends. there great grips you cant and wont go wrong. avon are PROUDLY MADE IN THE USA. I LIKE TO NO WERE PARTS ARE MADE BEFORE THEY GO ON MY BIKE
Excellent grips! High quality, the texture of the rubber feels good with or without gloves, also these grips make the bar feel a lot smaller. Very happy.

These grips fit great and are easy to put on.
Excellent grips! Comfortable and they look great.
They unfortunatly leave a 1/4" gap between the throtle grip trim and the switch housing. This makes it look cheap. It's a shame since the fit my hands great.
Great grips. But the adhesive it comes with doesn't work well.
I have used these grips on different bikes and have yet to find a better set. Kinda pricey but worth it. J&P shipped them right out.
Directions are a little difficult and had to make some modifications, but once they were on they are real comfortable.
Easy to install. Looks good, feels good.
Good quality product, look like the OEM grips
Nice look.

Today sees the launch of the first ever (RED)RUSH. And what are we rushing towards? ZERO.
1,000 babies are born with HIV every day. By 2015, that number can be close to zero.
(RED)RUSH TO ZERO is the new initiative from (RED) that runs from June 1st to 10th and there are lots of different and fun ways for people to get involved to help end the transmission of HIV from moms to their babies. From music to social media and from gaming to driving, (RED)RUSH is tapping in to peoples' passion points and creativity to raise awareness and funds. Here are 10 ways to help fight AIDS during the 10 days of (RED)RUSH:
1.Buy a (RED) product and your choice will trigger the (RED) partner brand to contribute part of the proceeds from the sale to help fight AIDS. So when you're shopping for an iPod nano at Apple why not choose the (RED) one, or the (RED) headphones from Beats by Dr. Dre -- it costs you exactly the same as the non-(RED) version.
2. Check-in to (RED) partner Starbucks on foursquare and they'll donate $1 to help fight AIDS (up to $250,000/U.S. and Canada only). (RED) partners Bugaboo & Penfolds are also donating on check-ins at select retailers -- click here to find out where.
3. Play in The (RED)RUSH Games. It's the biggest video game tournament around -- so pick up your Xbox or PlayStation and play to win prizes and prestige all while fighting for an AIDS FREE GENERATION.
4. Bid on a (RED)ROWS concert ticket. Coldplay, The Killers, Tim McGraw, Death Cab for Cutie are all offering special (RED) tickets for sale to their shows with proceeds to the fight.
5. Get the first track from the forthcoming (RED) HOT + FELA album - 'Lady' by tUnE-yArDs, Angelique Kidjo and Questlove. Exclusively on iTunes.
6. Sponsor one of the 70 women who are driving across Europe to raise money for the fight in the Cash & Rocket (RED) Tour.
7. Give an INSPI(RED) T-shirt as a gift to a friend.

How a Montessori Movement is Reinventing Public Schools
One afternoon early in this school year, a fourth grader at Magnolia Montessori For All, a public school in Austin, Texas, sat working independently on her math lesson. But then, she noticed a moth on a classroom curtain. She stood up and walked to the window. A friend joined her. They conferred about how to capture it, deciding upon a glass jar and a sheet of paper. They examined the moth through the glass. Eventually, they stepped out of their classroom door and freed the moth into the steamy late summertime. Then, they returned to their work.
The moment contrasted with the tight control approach found in many high-performing classrooms, where wandering over to a moth in the middle of a math lesson would cause a student to be redirected, if not reprimanded. And yet, for those students, it was pure, joyful learning. "We want those moments to happen," says Sara Cotner (S. Louisiana '00), school leader at Magnolia and co-founder of the Montessori For All school network. "Those kids weren't just having a mini-science lesson; they were cultivating problem solving, critical thinking, empathy, collaboration."
This could be a story about one promising approach in Austin, but it's not. Cotner and co-founder Sarah Kirby Tepera (Houston '00) have little patience for that level of tinkering. They are trying to nurture kids who will one day save the world, and their odds improve the more kids they reach. So they're reinventing school, augmenting Montessori with the best of what they and other veterans of high-performing charter schools have learned in 25 years of school reform. And they're sharing their Montessori-with-academic-rigor hybrid far and wide.
Expansion Plans
Montessori For All's model was conceived as "a third way," Kirby Tepera says. It is pure Montessori-style instruction with all the components that make this the learning style of choice for royalty (yes, little Prince George of Cambridge is a Montessorian), enhanced with the muscle and methodologies to tackle the heftiest problems in American education. The network's founding charter school, Magnolia, enrolls 400 students from pre-K (starting at age 3) through fifth grade (by 2019, through eighth grade). About half its students come from families with low incomes. Nearly 60 percent are non-white, an intentional reflection of Austin's demographics.
In 2017, Montessori For All will open a school in San Antonio. In 2019, another will open in a Texas city yet to be finalized. By 2030, with financial support from organizations like the New Schools Venture Fund, the network plans to serve more than 43,000 students at more than 70 schools in eight states.
With grants from foundations including the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, funded by Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, Cotner is aligning the school's methods to Common Core standards and codifying the network's curricula to share publicly. Cotner speaks nationally about the network's work. Magnolia welcomes frequent observers, including, in August, the provost of Relay Graduate School of Education. Through these channels and others, Cotner and Kirby Tepera hope to bring their message to more than 10 million people.
When it opens its third school, Montessori For All will also debut a Montessori teacher-training center based in Austin to address the nationwide shortage of certified Montessori instructors. The organization will also collaborate with schools and districts nationwide to infuse the Montessori philosophy into traditional education.
"Montessori flips everything on its head and starts with an approach that's 100 percent differentiated, 100 percent personalized, 100 percent competency-based. It embeds social and emotional learning into the very fabric of what kids do, and it puts respect for the child at the very core of its philosophy," Cotner says. "There are more than 50 million kids in the public school system, and we want to impact as many as possible."
The Power of the Network
Cotner also co-leads the Montessori for Equity Collaborative, a national group of about a dozen like-minded school leaders who have formed themselves into a network that gathers monthly via conference call to help each other build and strengthen similar third-way schools. Voices chime in from Memphis, Tennessee; Cleveland; St. Louis; Washington, D.C.; and elsewhere. One school leader worked for Arne Duncan at the U.S. Department of Education, some worked for educational non-profits, and several, like Cotner, worked for years in high-performing charter schools. The call is a sort of group therapy, but it also helps fulfill Cotner and Kirby Tepera's mission in launching Montessori For All: to expand the movement widely and quickly.
Many in the collaborative started working toward this new educational model for a common reason: They started their own families and realized that there were no public schools—even the ones they had helped to build—where they wanted to send their children. They wanted academic rigor but also student autonomy. They wanted a safe and orderly environment but also a warm and loving approach to discipline. They wanted a way to track learning, but they didn't want test prep to trump nurturing a child's natural desire to learn. And they wanted students who represented the diversity of their communities.
Cotner, whose children attend Magnolia, describes herself and her colleagues as existing at the tiny center of a large Venn diagram. One circle is the public Montessori movement. One is high-performing charter schools. One is the "next-gen schools" movement that includes other models, like Summit Public Schools, that incorporate personalized learning. They're also in the circle for intentionally diverse schools, like Citizens of the World Charter Schools, and the circle for schools cultivating social-emotional learning.
What that means is that their schools don't always replicate pure Montessori models. At Magnolia, a 30-minute end-of-day recess isn't pure Montessori, but it surreptitiously creates a block of time that can be used for remediation for struggling students.
Many Montessorians are religiously anti-testing, but all of the coalition's schools use tests and assessments. In part, this ensures compliance with public requirements, but it also helps teachers ensure they're closing gaps between lower and higher academic performers. At Elm City Montessori, a charter school in New Haven, Connecticut, the assessments also allow teachers to engage with the school's special education coordinator, who is provided by the district.
The schools also incorporate added accountability measures learned largely from high-performing charters. At Magnolia, teachers have mini-conferences with students after each piece of work they complete—not a part of the traditional Montessori setup. Teachers do guided reading with students, track their progress, and share it with families. Students and teachers set academic goals to which they hold themselves accountable every 12 weeks.
Overcoming Old Ways
Cotner and her colleagues are also part of a larger, expanding network called Montessori for Social Justice. It was founded in 2013 with the goal of pushing Montessorians nationally to focus on all kids, instead of the default focus on mostly wealthier, mostly white students attending private schools. The network's very active Facebook group has grown to 1,200 members, up from 50 at its inception.
A frequent topic of discussion is how to handle student discipline and character development. Many Montessori educators say their training did not sufficiently address how to help students who have experienced adversity and trauma. Morgan Beidleman (Hawai'i '07) is a co-founder, with Cotner, of the Montessori for Equity Collaborative and a doctoral student at the University of Colorado Denver studying educational psychology with a focus on social and emotional development. Prior to graduate school, she was the assistant principal at Montessori del Mundo in Aurora, Colorado. Her allegiance is not to Montessori methods but to the group's efforts to build discipline structures at their schools that deal with each child holistically. Montessori schools are uniquely suited to do that and uniquely challenged, she says.
Beidleman continues: The Montessori model is built in part on student choice and flexibility, both of which aid the development of strong executive functioning skills. Kids who enter a Montessori classroom with well-developed executive functioning skills tend to do well off the bat. They're focused and exhibit self-control. Kids with less developed executive functioning skills or those dealing with trauma tend to struggle initially. They need additional supports to gain the benefits of choice and flexibility. "Creating that supportive, empathetic culture focused on skill development over punitive discipline or a 'carrot and stick' approach can be challenging," she says.
Each of the collaborative schools is also focused on building anti-racist, anti-biased classrooms and school communities, in part as a way to overcome the Montessori model's tradition of white normativity. At its most recent conference, Montessori for Social Justice did a workshop with CrossRoads, a Chicago-based anti-racism training organization. Next summer's conference, in Houston, is called Embrace the Revolution: Anti-Bias Anti-Racist Montessori.
Follow the Child
Montez Crider (Greater Nashville '09) is a founding assistant teacher at Libertas Montessori in Memphis—part of Cotner's collaborative—where almost all of the students are black. He is midway through his Montessori certification training. Prior to Libertas, Crider worked at LEAD Academy Nashville and KIPP Memphis Prep. At both schools, he loved the camaraderie among his colleagues and felt successful as a teacher. But he says he was burning out on tasks that weren't directly related to being with kids in the classroom.
Crider landed at Libertas in 2015. "This Montessori thing is the bomb," he says. But he adds that it takes work to grow it beyond its development in the U.S. within a mostly white, mostly middle-class set of values. "And to do that is Montessori. Montessori says to follow the child, and to follow the child we have to look at the child in this environment."
As an example, he notes the Montessori emphasis on teaching the theory of evolution in elementary school. That won't fly with a lot of his students' parents, he says. "It's not insurmountable, but let's be aware of a potential problem with teaching evolution in the Bible Belt. Let's be ready to say, 'Yes, we're learning about that alongside many different creation stories,'" he says. "We're teaching these students to look at all of these different things and come up with their own beliefs."
As a black male Montessori teacher, Crider is, as he puts it, "a leprechaun on a unicorn riding up a yellow brick road." He's one of two at Libertas and the only one who is full time. A recent survey by the National Center for Montessori in the Public Sector of more than 300 teacher trainees found that 69 percent of respondents were white and 90 percent were female.
The shortage of a diverse field of Montessori teachers is one reason why opening more Montessori training centers is fundamental to the long-term growth of this hybrid model, Cotner says. Montessori For All projects it will be able to train 2,300 teachers by 2034.
The Evolution
For all of its bold ideas, the network's approach is part of an evolution in what schools look like, not a rejection of past reforms, says Kirby Tepera. In fact, she says, many of her colleagues at charter schools are working just as hard on their campuses to incorporate elements like personalized learning and holistic approaches to student discipline. "I don't think anyone in the high-performing charter world made a wrong turn, but I think the consensus is that the movement stopped too soon. They made this massive leap forward, and we owe them a massive debt of gratitude for changing the vision of what's possible for kids," Kirby Tepera says. "But we're not done. We need another step forward."
Cotner agrees. At her office in Austin, she unrolls a desk-sized blueprint of the building plans for Magnolia's new campus, set to begin construction this fall. The $13 million public school, funded with cash reserves and the help of an ongoing capital campaign, will rival the campuses of private Montessori schools. Instead of one building, it will be a collection of small houses surrounding courtyards. Each house will contain one class of students, each class spanning three grades, per the Montessori model. A screened-in porch attached to each house will allow students to work in the fresh air, if they choose. And there are plans for a small farm where students will grow vegetables to serve at lunchtime and to sell at a student-run farmers market.
"Montessori is a way of restructuring schools so that the community becomes a micro-society and you coach and guide children to interact in peaceful, kind ways. And those children become the leaders of the future," Cotner says. She paraphrases the founder: "Maria Montessori said that you can't educate children from birth to compete with each other and then expect there not to be war. I think that's just brilliant."
Demand for public Montessori schools is growing: They've been around since the 1960s, but more than half of the nation's roughly 500 schools have opened in the past decade. Still, they face a perennial struggle to find enough qualified teachers. Dakota Prosch (Chi–NWI '00) is in her 16th year in the classroom and her 8th year at a Montessori school, currently Suder Montessori, a magnet school on Chicago's South Side. She says, "I think Montessori is the only method I have learned that truly flips education on its head and provides opportunities for kids to stop being told what to do, which only reinforces the class structures and racial inequities that we all see and want to stop but don't know how to stop."

Rob Pattinson Is Still Tired of Talking About Twilight
He doesn't seem to be looking forward to 'Eclipse' press.
In yet another profile of Rob Pattinson in which he wears his weariness so well, the actor bemoans the Twilight phenomenon:
"Mr. Pattinson was not particularly eager to chat for the quadrillionth time about Edward Cullen. 'It can get a little boring,' he said softly over coffee at the Four Seasons hotel, referring both to playing an unchanging vampire and to chewing over the Cultural Importance of It All. 'The good news is that the whole thing is done in seven months.'"
He's off by about a year, but Pattinson continues: "I've learned to let it go a bit, but I'm still really bothered by it ... The more you are exposed, the more people irrationally hate you."
The Times then wonders: Will Pattinson's superstardom lead him the way of Leonardo DiCaprio ... or Christopher Atkins? (Remember him? No? Exactly.) In any case, with Eclipse out June 30, Pattinson had better get used to talking about vampires.

Altea is a picturesque village located on the "White Coast".
Boasting many up market residences and luxury properties, but also typically rustic charming homes.
Altea is one of the gems which make up the Costa Blanca Riviera's notoriously beautiful coastline.
This cosmopolitan village is one of the most charming and fascinating on this beautiful coast.
Along the esplanade interesting boutiques and shops jostle with restaurants and bars.
Narrow lanes of whitewashed houses and gourmet restaurants wind up the hill to a cobbled square with bustling pavement cafes overlooked by the distinctive blue ceramic domes of the church.
In summer the old town is totally pedestrianised and the streets around the church are taken up with arts and crafts stalls where local artists exhibit their work.
As well as the crystal clear sea and blue flag beaches, the area has plenty of activities.
Altea counts also with its prestigious "Altea Hills Resort", this residential complex with 24 hours security guard.
At just a stone's throw away from the Luis Campomanes Sports Marina and the Don Cayo Golf Club.
The little beach resort of Albir in the area of Alfaz del Pí is wedged between Benidorm and Altea.
It is ideally suited for those who'd like an alternative to the busy beaches of Benidorm.
The beach in Albir made by soft smooth rocks, has won prizes for its quality, and is known for clean water.
The best of all, Albir's beach is at walking distance from nearly every hotel, apartment or villa and the whole area has got facilities for disabled people.
Nested in the Sierra Gelada there is a famous stylish spa complex set in beautiful, natural surroundings, proposing to enjoy a complete relaxation. "Treatments have taken inspiration from those of the Far East and other revolutionary treatments developed in the West".
A little higher in land is located Alfaz del Pi followed directly by La Nucia with its impressive "Puig Campana" mountain in the back, its famous British school "Elians" and its impressive sport center.
Two villages completely organized for a permanent living.
Alfaz has the second biggest concentration of Norwegian residents abroad along with sizable Dutch end English communities.
Alfaz del Pi is particularly proud of its environmental protection plans which are strictly adhered to and means that you won't see any high rise apartment blocks but lots of green spaces.
There are two Norwegian schools. The "Costa Blanca School " and the "Albir Norwegian School" which has been financed totally by the Norwegian Government.
Alfaz is also home to a nationally renowned film festival which runs each year.

There is nothing quite like that first drive of summer with the top down. In honor of that tradition, Total Car Score has put together a list showcasing seasonal vehicles that are synonymous with summer fun.
European carmakers have mastered the art of the convertible, with eight of the top scoring models coming from Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Mini, and Volkswagen.
The 2012 Ford Mustang is the only domestic vehicle to make Total Car Score's list, placing third. There is also one Japanese convertible in the top 10; the Lexus IS 250/350 lands in ninth place.
Convertibles used to represent a tiny fraction of the automotive market, but in recent years the variety of drop-tops has increased dramatically. They range in price from as low as $18,000 (Smart ForTwo) to as high as $450,000 (Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead), but eight of the Top 10 Convertibles of 2012 cost between $27,000 and $50,000.
The convertible rankings include a validated Total Car Score for each vehicle, meaning the vehicle has at least five ratings from independent automotive authorities.
So, what are you waiting for? Get in.

Thanks, Willis Carrier.
Thanks for helping create today's air-conditioning system as we know it.
Because of you, we're not standing in puddles of sweat. Or smelling like goats. Or freezing our fannies because we still live up north.
You helped make South Florida so livable that far too many folks decided to move here. But we'll not dwell on that now.
Today, we're honoring the 100th anniversary of modern air conditioning with a look at the invention that changed the world.
It's our way of saying thanks, Willis. We think you're really cool.
In the beginning ...
Before historians quibble, let's make it clear that many inventors concocted contraptions for keeping cool.
But Carrier is often dubbed the father of air conditioning because he tackled humidity as well as heat.
An engineer, Carrier was trying to control the heat and humidity that played havoc with paper size and colored images in a Brooklyn, N.Y., printing plant.
On July 17, 1902, he submitted a design for his climate control system to the company. It worked well enough to create a stable environment for effective four-color printing.
"I put him in the class with Einstein, Edison and Bell," says Edna Moor Littlehales, 80, who lives in Venice, Fla., and was raised by Carrier and his second wife. "But he found pleasure in everyday things -- playing golf, bridge, hunting and fishing."
Littlehales was only 11 in 1932 when she went to live with the Carriers after her father, an engineer who worked with Carrier, died. They lived first in New Jersey, then in upstate New York, but, no, their homes, like most at that time, weren't air-conditioned.
The ice man cometh
It's no surprise that a Floridian -- one Dr. John Gorrie of Apalachicola -- is part of early air conditioning history.
