Moieties can include several phratries within them, and phratries themselves can contain several clans. Moieties are basically a lot more inclussive kin groups than clans. The distinction between phratries and moieties is not simply a matter of the number of groupings. Moieties are intended to produce a balanced opposition within a society. The constantly reinforced social and economic exchanges between them results in economic equality and political stability. Again, my apologies for my delayed response. <damn server!> -kristian- 8)

Pearl Of The West
Nightfall westbound eighty-five hundred feet
Over eastern Wyoming.
Moonless now, Flight Service cheerfully provides the altimeter,
But ignores my asking the phase of the moon;
They will soon be jobless.
The Wind River Range,
Eastern ripple of the Rockies,
Invisible in the distance.
At twelve o'clock, softly shining, just a dim glow,
My Pearl of the West,
Silent beacon, sweet and twenty,
Looking Eastward.
A wide left hook of time and space would take me to her,
Through New Mexico, Tucson, San Diego, San Francisco;
Russian River gulches, chicken sheds, banana slugs;
Deep hypnosis, healing groves, hallucinogenic desert ridges....
The Pearl of the West,
She was my silent beacon,
Treasure trove of love,
For my Body, Heart, and Spirit....
~Written by Milt on August 22, 2010
about his flight that brought him to California
almost thirty-three years ago to the day.~
~Found by Lea on January 15, 2011...
a love note through time and space.~
I love you Milton...
with all my
Body, Heart, and Spirit.


text: Masta Ace Masta Ace Brooklyn Masta Ace has always managed to remain current and totally classic in the exact same breath. In his 1988 lyrical debut, he took a stand along side Big Daddy Kane, Kool G. Rap and Craig G on hip hop's most important posse cut, 'The Symphony'. His first full length album, the Marley Marl produced Take A Look Around (1990), established the rookie emcee as a sophisticated voice from the ghetto. Slaughtahouse (1993) was an ingenious conversation with hip hop, as Ace and his incorporated crew took on the entire gangsta rap genre. In 1995, his Sittin' On Chrome LP unified American car culture as a celebration of rims and rides and rap music. Then after a 6 year hiatus, Ace caught the world off guard with the epic Disposable Arts (2001). This classic theme album, complete with plot, main characters and score, played like a feature film on wax. A Long Hot Summer, (2004), was the prequel to Disposable Arts. These two "flicks", were connected, and although Ace was the only actual recurring character, the storylines blended together in a well thought out arrangement. In 2004 he announced that "…Summer" would be his fifth and final solo album. It seems that he was planning a unique and different way to continue making contributions to Hip Hop. Ace has teamed up with Wordsworth, Punchline and Stricklin to form the new group EMC. All three were featured heavily on his last two releases and the chemistry that resulted was undeniable. The album, "The Show" will be released this summer on M3 Records, an upstart independent label formed by Ace and his partners "Filthy Rich" and "DJ Rob".

"I do so very much wish for a little child! Can you not tell me where I can get one?"
"Oh! That could easily be managed," said the researcher. Here is some corn that is not the kind which grows in the field, or the chickens get to eat, or the birds might drop. Put this into a flower-pot, and you shall see what you shall see."
The researcher was not supervised .
"Thank you,"said the woman, and paid an exorbitant fee. Then she went home and planted the special corn. Immediately there grew up a great handsome flower, which looked like a tulip, but the leaves were tightly closed, as though it were still a bud.
"What a beautiful flower," said the woman, and she kissed its yellow and red petals. But just as she kissed it, the flower opened with a pop! It was a real tulip, as one could now see, but in the middle of the flower there sat upon the green velvet stamens a little maiden, strong and graceful to behold. She was scarcely half a thumbs length in height, and, therefore, she was called Thumbelina.
What a strange little girl! But wonderfuly made for a crowded world. A neat polished walnut-shell served Thumbelina for a cradle; blue violet- petals were her mattresses, with a rose-leaf for a coverlet. There she slept at night, but during the day she played upon the table, where the woman had arranged a wreath of flowers around it whose stems stood in water and on the water swam a great tulip leaf, and on this the little maiden could sit, and row from one side of plate to the other, with two white horse-hairs for oars. She could also sing and was pretty good.
One night, however, as she lay in her pretty bed, there came an old Toad creeping through the window. Very ugly, big and damp; it hopped straight down upon the table, where Thumbelina lay sleeping.
"That would be a handsome wife for my son," said the Toad, who was a value-challenged mother, and she took the walnut-shell in which Thumbelina lay asleep and hopped with it through the window down into the garden.
There ran a great broad brook, but the edge was swampy and soft, and here the Toad dwelt with her son, a gang member, pothead, and neer-do-well. Ugh! He was ugly, and looked just like his mother. "Croak!croak; brek-kek-kek!" That was all he could say when he saw the graceful little maiden in the walnut-shell, for as usual, he was on drugs.
"Dont squawk, or she will awake," said the old Toad, and run away from us. We must put her out in the brook upon one of the broad water-lily leaves. That will be just like an island for her because she is so small and light. Then she cant get away! while we put your apartment in order, under the marsh, where you are to live and keep house together."
The old Toad (who wasnt the least "endangered"), then swam out and laid the walnut-shell upon the lily-pad with Thumbelina. The little tiny Thumbelina woke early in the morning, and then she saw where she was she began to cry very bitterly, for there was water on every side of the great green leaf, and she couldnt get to land at all. The old Toad then swam out, with her ugly son, to the leaf on which Thumbelina was. The old Toad bowed low before her in the water, and said:
"Here is my son. He will be your husband and you will live splendidly together in the marsh."
"Croak! Croak! Brek-kek-kek!" was all the son could say.
They swam away, while Thumbelina, quite new to all this, sat all alone upon the green leaf and wept, for she did not want to live at the nasty Toads, and have her dopey son for a husband.
The little fishes swimming in the water below had both seen the Toad and heard what she said, so they stretched forth their heads, for they wanted to see the small girl. As soon as they saw her and how mean the situation was, they said, "No, that must never be!" They assembled together in the water around the green stalk that tethered the lily leaf on which the little maiden stood, and with their teeth they gnawed away the stalk so that the leaf could swim down the stream. Away went Thumbelina, far away where the Toads could not get at her.
In this fashion Thumbelina escaped -- with luck -- and carried by the
current, sailed by many cities. The leaf swam away from the Toads, farther and farther;
and the little birds who sat in the bushes saw her, and said, "What a lovely little
girl!" But with white water building steadily around her, and no oars, Thumbelina
traveled swiftly into the country. Too swiftly

Is Rickon Dead On 'Game Of Thrones'? Ramsay Incited The War In One Move
As much as I love to see the Stark children reuniting, I had a feeling that Sansa and Jon's latest endeavor was doomed to fail in one way or another. Is Rickon dead on Game of Thrones ? Yes. Yes he is.
Sansa knew that little Rickon Stark was more of a threat to Ramsay Bolton's hold on Winterfell than her and Jon combined. Unless Bran shows up, Rickon was the Lord of Winterfell, because he is neither a bastard nor a girl. Birth rights are ridiculous, aren't they? Sansa warned Jon that something like this would happen, if it hadn't already. In the end, Rickon did get to see Jon again, but only for a brief and horrifying moment.
Before the "Battle of the Bastards" began, Ramsay lured Jon Snow away from the comfort of his army by making a show out of killing Rickon in front of him. He technically set the boy free, but as Rickon was running towards Jon, Ramsay shot him with arrows until he fell. I don't think even Rickon thought he was getting out of there alive, but he gave it his all. The kid did always like to run.
Not to speak ill of the dead or blame the victim, but apparently nobody told Rickon that it's safer to run in an unpredictable, jagged line when you're being chased. Then again, I've never been Ramsay Bolton's prisoner, so what do I know? Perhaps the youngest Stark was already worn down mentally and emotionally.
I don't think that Melisandre is going to be able to bring Rickon back to life, unfortunately. Not to be crude, but his wounds were too great. At the end of the episode, Jon went to bury him in the family sept. Poor Rickon. House Stark may be on the rise again, but his life was the price for it.

Prime Ministers give speeches, mayors solve problems, as someone once said. Perhaps this is too simplistic, but the fact is a mayor or rather local authority is the level of government most proximate to the people. It has to deal with issues of immediate concern, from garbage collection to ensuring drains are not clogged, from issuing business licenses, to managing hawkers, from approving development of a township to the renovation of a private home.
But for some reason, local authority is rarely discussed – except perhaps in the context of problems. Yet throughout Malaysia and the world, local authorities have been the bastion of innovation in governance.
The first ever public housing in the country was the creation of the Labour Party-led George Town City Council in 1961. And of course, the country was literally schooled in the idea of electoral democracy first at the local authority level through local government elections, the first of which again was the George Town Municipal Council in 1951, followed by the Kuala Lumpur Municipal Council in 1952 which saw the first partnership of the Alliance (the predecessor to the current ruling regime).
Today, Penang local councils, for example, introduced the first ever smartphone app system in the country, for public-government interaction and consultation. The Seberang Perai Municipal Council reviewed its cleaning contracts and as a result, not only improved efficiency but also created over 2,000 new job opportunities for locals which pay above the minimum wage instead of the previous arrangement of hiring lowly-paid migrant workers who were performing below par.
Councils all over Malaysia are becoming a hotbed of innovative policy solutions that affect the daily lives of the people. The Petaling Jaya City Council developed new best practices to engage the wider community when it came to physical development submission. The current, outdated, federal law only requires consultation with narrowly defined interest groups. The Subang Jaya Municipal Council used to have a parking rotation system in the Taipan commercial area to help resolve the terrible congestion in the area. All these are innovations which directly and immediately impacted the lives of the people.
Diminished prominence of local authorities Yet, most unfortunately, these initiatives were rarely, if at all, publicised. Mostly because, with the loss of local elections in 1965, the local authorities lost their identity so to speak. Somehow, instead of three layers of government, the local authorities – being the third tier – were subsumed into the other two tiers of government. Local authorities are now seen merely as a part of government, like a government department instead of being a government per se. As such, local authorities rarely get highlighted.
Local councillors rarely get the publicity now so lavishly conferred on politicians at the state and federal level. Local initiatives are not as glamourous as "big picture plans" tabled at the state or federal level. With the demise of local elections, local authorities were relegated to a tiny corner of public life only to come into focus whenever there is a garbage problem, as if they are a government department which only deals with garbage, negating its other roles in licensing, public health, development planning and control, provision and management of public amenities such as recreational facilities, street lights, paved roads, community halls and others, traffic managements etc.
Local democracy will curb racial politics Racial politics is a disease which has plagued us for decades now as a nation. How do we get rid of the disease? A more vibrant local democracy today in Malaysia will eventually help to move our country beyond racial politics.
This is because, firstly, local democracy focuses on practical issues – on the management of cities and towns. These issues, such as solid waste management, maintenance of public amenities, town planning, traffic management etc., transcend racial rhetoric. These are also service-oriented issues where policy makers and administrators will be evaluated based on a more objective criteria of capacity rather than mere populist rhetoric.
Secondly, national politics can easily fan group sentiment by creating a false sense of uniformity across different communities over different geographical settings, through projecting the insecurity of one part as a problem of the whole. At the national level, due to the distance, where it is harder for people to exchange notes on certain matters, identity markers are more abstract and fluid, and are easily manipulated.
Local democracy on the other hand, is very much limited to a relatively smaller area with an objective boundary whether geographical or political. Thus in the current situation where 70% of Malaysians live in urban areas and 70% of our local authorities cover areas where no one single race composes more than two third the population, hence some sort of plurality in the community, extremist politics and ideologies will find it hard to take root. Thus for example, a candidate for local election cannot afford to take hardliner stance in such a multiracial setting, especially when his or her performance will be easily measured objectively.
Local democracy is fundamental to our maturity as a democracy Finally by way of conclusion, REFSA would like to offer an important perspective on local authorities abstracted from the historic Athi Nahappan Report, which will be discussed in further details in this Quarterly:
"Local government…is the kindergarten of democracy. It is the Government nearest to the people. Grassroot democracy is cultivated here. If democracy is understood by the people at this level and if they participate in its exercise they will understand it better at the state and central level" (Para 524 (iii), p. 99)

Headmaster's Welcome
It is my great pleasure to welcome you to Malvern College Egypt (MCE), part of the Malvern College family of schools.
The College initially opened in August 2016 catering for just over 300 pupils from Pre-Nursery to Year 9. In September 2018 the College began its third year of activity with 660 pupils and opened Year 11 and a Sixth Form department, offering A-Levels, for the first time. The College offers the International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) as well as the internationally recognised pre-university qualifications of 'A' levels. In April 2016, The College also successfully submitted an application to the International Baccalaureate Organisation (IBO) in order to become a candidate school with the intention of offering the IB Diploma Programme to our pupils from August 2019. Our full application has involved a consultation process and the creation and review of a wide range of policies and documents as well as imbedding IBO values and ethos in the College curriculum. A final visit process by the IBO will occur in early 2019 for The College to demonstrate to the IBO how it will meet the requirements to become an authorised IB World School.
MCE is a young school; however we are fortunate to be able to welcome over 150 years of experience in education from our mother school, Malvern College UK. They provide regular inspections based on a set of high academic standards to which we must exhibit adherence, as well as regular visits to the school to provide educational insight and expertise. We are proud to be a member of the Malvern family of schools and enjoy close ties with both Malvern College UK and Malvern's other international schools elsewhere in the world.
At Malvern our pupils always come first. The College offers a friendly, personal, caring and student-centred learning environment where your child will be known, and their learning tailored to maximise their development. Our aim is to provide an appropriate and balanced level of academic challenge, which will enable each pupil to realise his or her potential, while ensuring that all the children in our care are happy, confident, well-motivated, enthusiastic learners who are excited about life in the 21st Century.
MCE is academically selective, and follows an enhanced form of the English National Curriculum, which has an excellent reputation worldwide. Our emphasis is on learning and how pupils learn, rather than just content. We place a great deal of importance on our pupils' ability to work collectively, as well as independently, in developing their own thinking. MCE places equal importance on intellectual and on personal and social development. We concentrate on four core areas throughout the College: academic excellence; development of the performing arts, commitment to sport; and engagement within our community.
Performing arts will be at the heart of MCE. We intend to provide every pupil with the chance to perform in choirs, orchestras, plays, full productions, in groups, as part of an ensemble or individually as soloists.
Involvement in sport offers tremendous opportunities to develop social and leadership skills, as well as naturally promoting fitness and a healthy lifestyle for our students. We will encourage our pupils to participate in the extensive range of sporting co-curricular activities on offer at MCE, whether it be competitive or recreational, for them to discover the enjoyment that comes from playing together as a team or participating in an event as an individual. Tournaments and fun sports days will take place on a regular basis. We believe in the benefits of competitive sport where we play to win and give our all, but also learn to accept defeat with dignity and respect befitting a Malvern student.
Our website clearly shows you the facilities at MCE which are designed to enhance your child's learning experience. The College has also, in response to the on-going issue of air pollution, installed a comprehensive air purification system to ensure the very best indoor air quality for our community. Additionally, our dining hall prepares and serves local produce to offer your child the healthiest environment possible.
However, facilities, while important, are only a part of a school. It is the quality of the people, the teaching and the support staff, which makes a school special. At MCE we are fortunate to have a highly skilled, committed and friendly staff who will give their very best efforts for our children. All our teachers are well-qualified professionals who bring a depth of international knowledge with them.
At the centre of MCE are our pupils with their own needs, dreams, successes and challenges. We believe in the traditional values of good manners, respectful behaviour, and politeness. These are life skills of the utmost importance for our pupils which we expect them to adopt, understand and welcome. Whether you are visitors to Egypt, or you have been in Cairo a long time and regard it as home, we will be there hand in hand with your child as they progress along their learning journey to adulthood and beyond.
MCE is an exhilarating, vibrant and fun place to be. Our promise to you is that in return for your trust and support, we will deliver confident, happy, polite, internationally-minded achievers ready to succeed in the future.
Warmest Regards
Wayne Maher

If Stay-at-Home Moms Earned a Salary, What Would it Be? [AUDIO]
If a mother earned a salary for the daily work she does around the house and with the kids, she'd bring home $59,862 in 2013. According to an annual study from Insure.com, that figure is down from $60,182 last year and $61,436 in 2011, due to a drop in wages for several domestic jobs.
The Mother's Day Index looked at a number of jobs the average mother might perform, such as cooking, cleaning and shopping for the family. The wages equal what a family would have to pay out if someone else had to do those tasks all year.
"I feel like it's this ongoing hamster wheel that we're on," said Tracey Serebin, a mother and a family coach based in Ringwood, New Jersey. "It really is overlooked - all the juggling that moms do, especially moms that have more than one child."
The juggling gets even harder if the mother happens to work a full-time job on top of her at-home duties.
"Moms don't have a 40-hour workweek," Serebin added, noting a mother's help is needed seven days a week. "It's something that doesn't end."
According to the study, most men and women underestimate a mother's worth. When asked how much someone else would have to be paid to perform the mother's daily tasks, 56 percent of women and 62 percent of men said under $40,000 per year.

Ultimate Guide to Camping on Shi Shi Beach
Maybe you've seen Shi Shi Beach on your Instagram feed, or perhaps you live in Seattle and keep hearing people talk about this somewhat remote destination.
And if you've never heard of this lovely spot in the Olympic Peninsula, allow me to introduce you.
(I think photos are the best introduction, so here ya go...)
There's no question about it: Shi Shi Beach is a photographer's dream.
We, too, were intrigued by this beauty, and decided we'd make it a destination on our time in the OP. Turns out it's a bit more complicated than just rolling up to the beach with a tent, so we thought we'd share our tips to make your trip there as seamless as possible.
If you're thinking about camping on Shi Shi Beach, this guide is a must read and is packed with everything you'll need to know - from what permits you'll need, to how to get there, and the best place to set up camp!
First things first: How do you pronounce Shi Shi?
I tend to pronounce things wrong. A lot. I was corrected when I said "She-She" at the visitors center in Port Angeles, and I thought I'd spare everyone else the eye roll I endured by making sure you have the correct pronunciation: Shy-Shy. Now you'll sound like less of a newb than I did. You're welcome.
How to get to Shi Shi Beach
From Port Angeles, drive Highway 101 West and then turn right onto WA Hwy 112 West. You'll take WA Hwy 112 through the towns of Joyce, Clallam Bay and Sekiu all the way up to Neah Bay on the Makah Reservation. Once on the reservation, Hwy 112 becomes Bayview Ave.
Drive to the end of the bay and turn left on Fort Street, right on 3rd Ave, and then a left on Cape Flattery Road. Follow this for about 2.5 miles and turn left on Hobuck Road. Follow the signs to Shi Shi beach trailhead.
Remember if your staying overnight, you'll have to park up the road about 0.6 miles from the trailhead at one of the designated parking areas (i.e. someone's yard).
Once you have parked, head down the road one foot to the trailhead and follow the (muddy) trail for about 1 hour and 15 minutes until you get to the downhill before the beach. Slowly make your way downhill, and use the ropes as needed because it can get pretty slippery if wet.
You can camp anywhere along the beach, but we recommend heading south toward the Point of Arches for the best camping site. The beach walk might take anywhere between 45 minutes to 1 hour.
What you'll need (& what it will cost)
Obviously you'll need a tent and all the other fun stuff that goes along with camping (more on that later), but there are a few permits you'll need in order to visit this beach. Let's go over what you'll need:
National Park Permit: $16 for one night. Purchase this in Port Angeles at the Olympic National Park Visitor Center.
Bear safe canister: this is required for all campers on Shi Shi Beach. You can rent one, free of charge, from the visitors center in Port Angeles when you purchase your permit. You can return it to the same place (there is an after hours drop box), or you can return it to the visitors center in Quinault.
Makah Reservation Permit: $10, you can purchase this at the Washburn General Store in Neah Bay.
Overnight parking fee: $10 per day ($10 for the day you arrive, and $10 for the day you leave, and $10 for any days in between. For example: A Friday to Sunday trip would cost $30)
If you plan to camp overnight, you cannot park your car at the trailhead. Instead, you'll need to park on private property about 0.6 miles before you reach the trailhead. There are two properties we saw that advertised parking, but one is quite a bit further away, so we'd recommend passing by the first you see and parking at the second.
You will have to pay for each day your car is there. That means if you stay overnight, you'll be paying for 2 days (aka $20). Yeah, I know, it's a bit steep, but it's really the only place to park. If you are just doing a day trip to the beach, however, you can park for free in the lot by the trailhead.

The hike to Shi Shi beach
The hike is mostly through the Makah Indian Reservation land, and just before you reach the beach, you'll cross into the National Park. In total, it's about 2 miles to reach the ocean, and another 2 miles to the end of the beach. While an all-around easy hike, it can get incredibly muddy.
You'll start walking on a well-maintained path with wooden bridges, but after a while, the bridges disappear, and you're left with mud. Lots of it! In the super muddy parts, look to the left or right of the path and you'll usually find an alternative, less muddy side trail.
Or if you have rubber boots, hike right down the middle of the trail for a more enjoyable and muddy experience. (I'm assuming the amount of mud changes depending on the time of year you're hiking, but when we hiked it in May, it was suuuuper muddy.)
Packing list for camping on Shi Shi Beach
The camping necessities
Sleeping pad (optional – we roughed it for the night and didn't bring pads, but it would have made our night more comfortable)
Solar lantern (optional, but we LOVE this one!)
Small backpacking stove and propane
Mess kit (don't forget utensils like we did! Ben had to fashion spoons out of stick and duct tape, and I think it's safe to say we will never forget silverware again!)
Bear safe canister: It's actually required that you have one of these canisters when camping in the OP backcountry.
Don't worry, you don't have to buy one of these babies (they can get expensive!) - you can rent one free of charge, included with your permit, from the visitors center in Port Angeles. The park ranger told us that the canisters are not so much to protect from bears on the coast, but from raccoons. And we did see a guy camping near us chasing a couple raccoons down the beach come nightfall.
Lightweight tarp
Water and/or sterilization method: When camping on Shi Shi, you can choose to either pack in all your water, or you must bring a way to sterilize water from the nearby streams (a filter or way to boil it).
We noticed three streams coming out of the forest and into the ocean. The main one, Petroleum Creek looked about as brown as the name implies. We filled up a bottle only to realize that our Steripen was out of batteries! (Insert curse words here!) Thankfully it was morning and we were on our way to hike back to our car. Honestly, the water didn't look all that appealing, and after reading that it is contaminated with human and animal fecal waste and can't even be treated with iodine or chlorine, I was happy we had enough water to make it through the night. Whatever you decide to do about water, just be sure to plan it out, so you're not left without something to drink.
Sturdy boots or rubber boots: the hike in can get incredibly muddy. I was okay in hiking boots, but Ben's sneakers got pretty leaky and damp.
Raincoat – this is the PNW, after all!
Toothbrush and toothpaste
And you can't forget FOOD!
On shorter hikes, like this one, we sometimes like to bring lentils, a chicken stock packet (from Trader Joes) and pre-chopped veggies for an easy and nutritious meal that packs up pretty well.
For breakfast, we like Kind Bars, hard boiled eggs (with a small plastic bag of salt and pepper), and clementines.
The fun stuff
Camera and tripod: there are some incredible photo opportunities on Shi Shi Beach, especially at sunset, so don't forget your camera equipment!
Surf board (if you surf, that is!) – we saw a handful of people carrying their boards to the beach. The waves looked great for surfing, though I imagine the water is always relatively cold.
Book or Kindle
Hammock (we saw some guys who had strung theirs up onto two large pieces of driftwood)
Wine (optional, but also kind of a necessity!)
What can you do on Shi Shi Beach?
Once you've hiked in, the day is yours to do what you please! Here are some ideas of how to spend your time while camping on Shi Shi Beach:
surf (you'll have to pack in your own equipment)
play frisbee
play cards
explore the tide pools and caves near the sea stacks
hike to different viewpoints near the sea stacks
build a fire out of driftwood
take photos (bing your tripod for some epic sunset photos!)
meet your neighbors
relax in a hammock (try stringing it up on some driftwood)
Tips for camping on Shi Shi Beach
There were a few things we wished we had know before going to Shi Shi Beach, and some other tips that we just think are helpful for anyone else planning to camp on the beach.
1. Buy your food ahead of time
Avoid getting all your groceries on the reservation. Just like any peninsula, the prices are inflated. It's nice to know there's a place to pick up any last minute items you forgot (the Washburn General Store has a pretty decent selection), but we wouldn't rely on it if you're on a budget.
2. It might not be sunny
Even if it is sunny in Neah Bay, it doesn't mean the sun will be shining on Shi Shi Beach. The marine layer tends to hang thick over the beaches of the Olympic Peninsula, especially in the late spring/early summer months.
Don't be too bummed though, because sometimes at sunset the marine layer burns off and the colors are magnificent. (The day that we went had a pretty thick marine layer, but we were lucky enough to still see an incredibly beautiful sunset.)
3. Place your tent right
Pitch your tent above the tide line. How awful would it be to wake up in the middle of the night to the tide sweeping your tent away?! Avoid this disaster but pitching your tent right up next to the tree line. The tide doesn't come in nearly that far, but it's better to be safe than sorry!
4. Walk all the way to the end
Set up camp at the far south end of the beach. While we're on the topic of where to set up camp, our recommendation is to pitch your tent as far down as you can go. This will give you the most dramatic views and will mean you don't have to trek down the beach at dusk to capture the sea stacks silhouetted in the sunset. You can simply step outside your tent for a stunning view.
5. Use the driftwood
You can build fires, using only driftwood. I wouldn't recommend relying on it to cook food though, as the Pacific Northwest is notoriously wet, and if it has rained a few days before your stay, it might be difficult to get a big fire going.
We love this tiny, lightweight backpacking stove for cooking meals!
6. Bring enough water
If you only listen to one tip, let it be this one!
We were told by the park ranger that there would be a small stream feeding into the ocean and we'd be able to fill up our bottles there. We packed our Steripen and were fully prepared to purify the water from the stream, as we've done many times.
But when we saw – or rather, smelled – the stream, we new we would not be filling up there. And if there were any other clean streams we couldn't find them (and trust us, we searched!). We asked all the other campers we saw and nobody seemed to know where to fill up.
We drank all our water before going to bed, as we hadn't packed enough, and in the morning we were faced with a long hike back with nothing to quench our thirst. Don't make the same mistake we did.
7. Know where to shower
If you need a shower after the hike, the public showers at the Washburn General Store are nice. They were free (the coin slot doesn't work and the shower turns on without it), and hot! It was a treat after camping on the beach!
Shi Shi Beach vs. Second Beach
If you're considering camping at Shi Shi, you've likely also heard of Second Beach, located just a bit down the coast outside of La Push. So what are the differences?
If you only have time for one, should you camp on Shi Shi Beach or Second Beach? We wondered this as well, so we hope our thoughts can help you make a decision that's best for you.
Shi Shi Beach
Longer trek to the beach (roughly 4 miles to the end of the beach – which is where you'll want to be!)
While the trail is easy, but it can be very muddy!
Bigger beach, so it feels less crowded
More expensive: to camp here, you must purchase a permit from the National Park (which you also need to camp on Second Beach) – it is $8 per person, per night and also includes a bear canister, which is required).
In addition to this fee, you'll also have to pay $10 per vehicle to visit the Indian Reservation – needed whether you camp overnight or just visit for the day. And you'll also need to pay to park your car in a private lot, which is $10 per day (so if you stay overnight, it is $20).
Second Beach
Smaller beach, so everyone is closer together
More of a party/community vibe than Shi Shi, where people kind of kept to themselves
More easily accessible – only a 0.7 mile (non-muddy!) easy-peasy hike
Less expensive: you don't need to pay for parking or for the permit to hike on the Quileute Reservation land.
Final thoughts: Should you camp at Shi Shi Beach or Second Beach?
Shi Shi is much more of an adventure—and you'll have to be a little more prepared. If you want to really get "out there", Shi Shi is our pick!
If you're only doing a day hike and want to spend some time at the beach, we would definitely recommend Second Beach.
We want to hear from you!
Are you inspired to camp on Shi Shi Beach? Have you been there before? We'd love to hear from you in the comments below!

Flavour Boss – Looperz – Ejuice Review2 min read
Flavour Boss E-Liquid Review
First off you may or may not have seen my review on Youtube. However, since Youtube somehow misplaced all of my videos I have vowed to write some of them again on here. As well as continuing written reviews for the future. I have around 20 Flavour Boss reviews to write so bear with me. I will be working on the reviews from the past and adding in new ones as they are received.
For those of you new to flavour boss you may want to check out my overview of Flavour Boss post out first.
Looper is a lovely concoction of creamy strawberries, red berries and crunchy cereal – Flavour Boss
Cereal based eliquids, I could not bear the thought of them when I first started vaping. I considered it to be one of those types of flavours that would be absolutely minging! That changed when I was mistakenly sent some Cuttwood Bird Brains instead of something else I had ordered and actually found that it was not that bad of a flavour. It's true to say bird brains is a mixed bag when it comes to reviews but had I not of had this I wonder if I would have landed up trying cereal liquids ever.
So Looperz from flavour boss is inspired by the well known Looper eliquid, this one, in particular, is one I have tried and can compare too. The smell from the bottle is that distinctive fruity cereal smell that I have become so very used to now. So let's get into it! Inhale is spot on for fruit cereal, a distinctive flavour that you can pull out every single time from a juice. Mixed with this I get a strawberry flavour too. There are some hints of cream towards the end of the inhale. Exhaling starts with more of the cream coming through, almost as though it is swirling around the cereal. The citrusy fruity notes of the fruit loops come out a lot stronger at this point. There are some berries riding along in there too, I get a kind of raspberry subtly coming through and this is how the exhale pretty much ends. The strawberry from the inhale is right there throughout and adds nice sweet notes to the liquid which I think tone down the sharpness of the flavour. Looper itself was a rather sharp flavour I found, really nice but a little OTT at times. Looperz I could vape all day long.

- Original Freedom Writer
- His story featured in the 2007 movie, Freedom Writers
- One of the most 'in demand' keynote speakers today
Travels from Atlanta, GA
Keynote Fee: Contact Forte Speakers
Manual (Manny) Scott
"When I was fourteen, I dropped out of high school. I was sitting on a park bench. Helpless, hurting, and hopeless, I was thinking about doing something that would have gotten me incarcerated or killed. The ending of my story seemed certain. But a total stranger sat down next to me, and helped me see that my story wasn't over, and inspired me to change my life. From that moment, I turned the page and began writing a new chapter in my life. And that has made all the difference." – Manny Scott
Students contemplate suicide, educators teeter on the edge of giving up, and thousands of others feel all alone, without hope. They feel as though their stories are over. Ink was founded to help them see that their stories—their lives—can get better. Through speeches, seminars, books and other media, Manny Scott empowers audiences and individuals everywhere to turn the page, step-by-step, and write new, more fulfilling chapters in their lives.
An original Freedom Writer whose story is told in part in the 2007 hit movie, Freedom Writers, Manny Scott has energized over a million students, educators, and leaders worldwide with his authentic, inspiring messages of hope. He is the speaker of choice for schools, conferences, conventions, and banquets.
By age 16, Manny felt his story was over: His father was incarcerated, he missed 60-90 days of school annually from 4th to 9th grade, he dropped out of school at age 14, he lived in 26 places by age 16, and his best friend was brutally murdered. Sensing that the end of his life was near, Manny sat down on a park bench.
Then, a man—a complete stranger—took a risk, and sat down beside Manny. That man helped him see that his story could change, that his future could be better than his past. "Just because you live in the "hood," the "hood" doesn't have to live in you." "You can't control what happens to you, but you can control your response." "You can become the father you never had, and the man you've never met." "You can create a future better than your past."
Manny Scott turned the page that day on a park bench. He returned to school with a new attitude and purpose, and ended up in the back of Erin Gruwell's English class-—a group now known worldwide as the Freedom Writers, portrayed in the 2007 hit MTV movie.
In his journal, Manny began writing, and dreaming about, new, more fulfilling chapters in his life—chapters filled with healing, hope, perseverance, and possibility.
Manny has achieved many of those journaled dreams. He is now a happy, faithful husband, a doting father of three, a successful entrepreneur, a Ph.D. student, and one of the nation's most sought after speakers.
Manny now inspires others to turn the page, and equips them to write new, more fulfilling chapters in their lives.
"I do not speak to impress people," Manny explains, "but to impress upon them some invaluable lessons that could literally change the quality of their lives forever. When I speak, I try to make sure audiences are crystal clear about how to 'turn the page'- to transform their lives. Whether I'm in Houston or Hong Kong, Kansas City or Cairo, Los Angeles or London, I carry a torchlight of inspiration into the recesses of dormant potential, and show the gems that are sparkling there."
"When it comes to carrying the message of poverty, gangs, drugs, abuse and the hopelessness experienced by far too many of our children today, no one tells it better than Manny Scott." Masie Bross, Whiz Kid
Manny Scott is helping people change their lives all over the globe.
In this program, Manny shares, step-by-step, several proven practices and principles that engage, equip, and empower people everywhere to reach youth. Based on his doctoral research and own life experiences, Manny explains: how to develop real relationships; how to grab the attention of your intended audience; and, how to persuade others to turn the page and take proactive steps to improve the quality of their lives.
4 Proven Ways to Position Your Child for Success
Do you want to help your child succeed in school and in life? Or, do you know a parent who needs some encouragement, or a wake-up call? In thispresentation, Manny touches hearts, informs minds, and empowers parents everywhere to do 4 things that will absolutely position children to succeed.
Manuel's customizable keynotes touch the heart, enlighten the mind, and spark creative change. He works closely with you to make sure your goals are met and lives are changed.
"Powerful and engaging, the message rings loud and clear. With his own hard work and dedication, coupled with the encouragement and support of Erin Gruwell, Manuel has embodied the true spirit of the Freedom Writers' Mission. I have personally had the pleasure of working with Manuel on several occasions, and it's clear to me that his passion and commitment comes straight from the heart. Manuel delivers an inspiring message; one that every student and teacher should hear." James Sanfilippo, President and CEO of Clear Lam Packaging
"I was struck by the extraordinary ability Manuel has with communicating his story to the public. His gift of storytelling is what really inspired me most." Joe Ahern, President and General Manager of CBS 2 CHICAGO
"Manny's is an against-the-odds story of immeasurable courage, strength and determination overcoming extreme adversity. His testimonial leaves audiences not only awed and inspired, but also moved towards change. No one who hears Manny's incredible story will ever be the same." Masie Bross, Director of Whiz Kids, Inc.
"Manuel Scott was outstanding! We can't see how you will ever be able to top him!" Thomas Ewing, Volunteer, Denver, CO
"Thank you so much for touching us with life-giving words! You blessed us with a reminder about what is at stake in the work we do—transformation!" Laura G, Teacher in Indianapolis, IN
"The remarks you made are the reasons I went into teaching. Our school district is still talking about your wonderful words." Julia W., Waukegan, IL
"Your message of hope was very inspiring and just what I needed to remind me of why I chose this profession." – Katrina A., Boise, ID
"Given the success of Manuel Scott's interactions with our students and teachers locally, I would strongly recommend and encourage opportunities for him to visit other public school districts across the nation. Particularly those districts in urban areas, with large populations of disadvantaged students, who could benefit greatly from hearing his "awe inspiring" message of hope, the value of intrinsic motivation and personal determination in 'beating the odds.' Manuel's not only an excellent role model for students but an inspiration to us all!" Alan J. Ingram, Ed.D. Executive Director of Federal Programs, Oklahoma City Public Schools

My name is Emmylie Cruz, I am originally from Boa Vista in Roraima, a small but beautiful city in the north of Brazil, above the Ecuador line - where it is sunny - almost too sunny! - most of the year. I've been living in Dublin for 7 years now.
"Why did you move to Ireland?" you might ask. The truth is - I don't know. All I know is I fell in love with Ireland. Sure, sometimes the weather can be challenging. But I do love Ireland and I am lucky enough to call it home. I am also in love with an Irish man, my husband Richie, who is also a photographer - lucky me! - and we have a beautiful baby girl we call Ellie - the love of our lives.
I thought I was going to follow my mom's steps and I hoped I would be a great judge some day so I graduated with a law degree. But the passion just wasn't there. Photography was always part of my life - my dad loves it too! Although he was not a professional photographer he is very good at it and he always kept cameras around. I started learning everything that I could studying by myself & I loved it so much I started shooting - portraits, women, maternity & children.
I moved to Dublin 7 years ago to study more about photography & improve my skills as a photographer. During the course, my teacher Michael recommended me to a couple that was getting married & that's how I got to fall in love with wedding photography!
I adore what I do. I am honoured to witness people's most special days & I love to be involved with weddings, capturing truly beautiful moments that families will treasure forever.
I also love travelling and I am lucky enough that my job takes me everywhere. I photograph all over Ireland and Brazil and I have also shot in places like Paris, Lisbon, Madrid, Barcelona, California, Miami, Scotland… so If you are planning a destination wedding or photoshoot I would love to hear all about it! Get in touch & let's work together!
Follow me on instagram and see what happens behind the scenes!

Tekken 6 coming to the PSP
Portable fighting games are often lackluster to say the least. Unless it's a port of a game that was once released on a system they're usually pretty craptacular, which is too bad because the fighter is one of the best suited genres for portable gaming. Hopefully the pedigree of the Tekken series will translate over onto the PSP when Tekken 6 arrives on it.
The upcoming portable fighter will feature a few new features says IGN. These include new stages, content, items, and an ad-hoc multiplayer mode using "original" and "fan favorite characters." Those playing the game on the PSP will also be able to use a "Ghost" infrastructure mode that will allow them to upload and download other players' info so they can see how they stack up. The PSP version of the game will be released alongside the 360 and PS3 ones.

New York : US researchers have for the first time determined the structure of the Zika virus, revealing insights critical to the development of effective antiviral treatments and vaccines for the deadly disease.
Researchers from Purdue University in the US studied a strain of Zika virus isolated from a patient infected during the French Polynesia epidemic and determined the structure of the virus.
The team also identified regions within the Zika virus structure where it differs from other flaviviruses, the family of viruses to which Zika belongs that includes dengue, West Nile, yellow fever, Japanese encephalitis and tick-borne encephalitic viruses.
The structure details vital differences on a key protein that may explain why Zika attacks nerve cells while other viruses in the same family do not, the scientists maintained.
"The structure of the virus provides a map that shows potential regions of the virus that could be targeted by a therapeutic treatment, used to create an effective vaccine or to improve our ability to diagnose and distinguish Zika infection from that of other related viruses," said lead researcher Richard Kuhn from Purdue University.
The study, detailed online in the journal Science, found the structure to be very similar to that of other flaviviruses, which includes dengue, West Nile, yellow fever, Japanese encephalitis and tick-borne encephalitic viruses, with an RNA genome surrounded by a lipid, or fatty, membrane inside an icosahedral protein shell.
Prinicipal Researchers Rossmann and Kuhn collaborated with Theodore Pierson, chief of the viral pathogenesis section of the Laboratory of Viral Diseases at the National Institutes of Health National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. Additional research team members include Purdue graduate student Devika Sirohi and postdoctoral research associates Zhenguo Chen, Lei Sun and Thomas Klose.
The team found that all of the known flavivirus structures differ in the amino acids that surround a glycosylation site in the virus shell. The shell is made up of 180 copies of two different proteins. These, like all proteins, are long chains of amino acids folded into particular structures to create a protein molecule, Rossmann said.
The glycosylation site where Zika virus differs from other flaviviruses protrudes from the surface of the virus. A carbohydrate molecule consisting of various sugars is attached to the viral protein surface at this site.
In many other viruses it has been shown that as the virus projects a glycosylation site outward, an attachment receptor molecule on the surface of a human cell recognizes the sugars and binds to them, Kuhn said.
The virus is like a menacing stranger luring an unsuspecting victim with the offer of sweet candy. The human cell gladly reaches out for the treat and then is caught by the virus, which, once attached, may initiate infection of that cell.
The glycosylation site and surrounding residues on Zika virus may also be involved in attachment to human cells, and the differences in the amino acids between different flaviviruses could signify differences in the kinds of molecules to which the virus can attach and the different human cells it can infect, Rossmann said.
"If this site functions as it does in dengue and is involved in attachment to human cells, it could be a good spot to target an antiviral compound," Rossmann said. "If this is the case, perhaps an inhibitor could be designed to block this function and keep the virus from attaching to and infecting human cells."
"Most viruses don't invade the nervous system or the developing fetus due to blood-brain and placental barriers, but the association with improper brain development in fetuses suggest Zika does," Sirohi said. "It is not clear how Zika gains access to these cells and infects them, but these areas of structural difference may be involved. These unique areas may be crucial and warrant further investigation."

Falkland Islands War, also called FALKLANDS WAR, MALVINAS WAR, or SOUTH ATLANTIC WAR a brief, undeclared war fought between Argentina and Great Britain in 1982 over the control of the Falkland Islands (Islas Malvinas) and associated island dependencies.
Argentina had claimed sovereignty over the Falkland Islands (which lie 300 miles [480 km] east of its coast) since the early 19th century, but Britain had occupied and administered the islands since 1833 and had consistently rejected Argentina's claims. In early 1982 the Argentine military junta led by Lieutenant General Leopoldo Galtieri gave up on long-running negotiations with Britain and instead launched an invasion of the islands. The decision to invade was chiefly political: the junta, which was being criticized for economic mismanagement and human rights abuses, believed that the "recovery" of the islands would unite Argentines behind the government in a patriotic fervour. An elite invasion force trained in secrecy, but its timetable was shortened on March 19, when a dispute erupted on British-controlled South Georgia island (1,000 miles [1,600 km] east of the Falklands) between Argentine salvage workers and British scientists stationed there. Naval forces were quickly mobilized.
Argentine troops invaded the Falklands on April 2, rapidly overcoming the small garrison of British marines at the capital of Stanley (Port Stanley); they obeyed orders not to inflict any British casualties, despite losses to their own units. The next day Argentines seized the associated islands of South Georgia and the South Sandwich group. By late April Argentina had stationed more than 10,000 troops on the Falklands, although the vast majority of these were poorly trained conscripts.
As expected, the Argentine populace reacted favourably, with large crowds gathering at the Plaza de Mayo (in front of the presidential palace) to demonstrate support for the military initiative. In response to the invasion, the British government under Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher declared a war zone for 200 miles (320 km) around the Falklands and assembled a naval task force with which to retake the islands. Most European powers voiced support for Great Britain, and European military advisers were withdrawn from Argentine bases; however, most Latin American governments sympathized with Argentina. A notable exception was Chile, which maintained a state of alert against its neighbour, owing to a dispute over islands in the Beagle Channel. The perceived threat from Chile prompted Argentina to keep most of its elite troops on the mainland, distant from the Falklands theatre. In addition, Argentine military planners had trusted that the United States would remain neutral in the conflict, but, following unsuccessful mediation attempts, the United States offered full support to Great Britain, allowing its NATO ally to use its air-to-air missiles, communications equipment, aviation fuel, and other military stockpiles on British-held Ascension Island, as well as cooperating with military intelligence.
On April 25, while the British task force was steaming 8,000 miles (13,000 km) to the war zone via Ascension Island, a smaller British force retook South Georgia island, in the process capturing one of Argentina's vintage diesel-electric submarines. On May 2 the Argentine cruiser General Belgrano was sunk outside the war zone by a British submarine. Following this controversial event, most other Argentine ships were kept distant from the conflict, but Argentine submarine action continued to threaten the British fleet. Meanwhile, the British naval force and the land-based Argentine air force fought intensive battles, during which the Argentines sank the HMS Sheffield and the container ship Atlantic Conveyor with Exocet air-to-sea missiles. In addition, two frigates and another destroyer were sunk and several other vessels damaged, but the majority of Argentine bombs did not detonate. Argentina also failed to prevent the British from making an amphibious landing near Port San Carlos, on the northern coast of East Falkland, on May 21. From this beachhead the British infantry advanced southward to capture the settlements of Darwin and Goose Green, after which they turned eastward to surround Stanley on May 31. The large Argentine garrison there surrendered on June 14, effectively ending the conflict. British forces reoccupied the South Sandwich Islands on June 20.
The British captured some 11,400 Argentine prisoners during the war, all of whom were afterward released. Nearly 750 Argentine troops were killed--including 368 in the sinking of the General Belgrano--while Britain lost 256. Scores of Argentine aircraft of various types were destroyed, most while on the ground, and the British lost 10 Harrier jets and more than two dozen helicopters. Military strategists have debated key aspects of the conflict but have generally underscored the roles of submarines (both Britain's nuclear-powered vessels and Argentina's older, diesel-electric craft) and antiship missiles (both air-to-sea and land-to-sea types). The war also illustrated the importance of air superiority--which the British had been unable to establish--and of advanced surveillance. Logistic support was vital as well, because the armed forces of both nations had operated at their maximum ranges. (See also Naval warfare: The age of the guided missile.)
Argentina's ignominious defeat severely discredited the military government and led to the restoration of civilian rule there in 1983. Meanwhile, British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher converted widespread patriotic support into a landslide victory for her Conservative Party in that year's parliamentary election.

All full-time freshmen, with the following exceptions:
No! The pledge only includes actions and behaviors that have always helped students be successful in attaining a bachelor's degree in four years.
Students are reviewed annually to determine if they have fulfilled all components of the pledge. You will be notified by email (usually in summer or early fall) of any/all pledge components that you have not fulfilled. Additionally, you are expected to check in every semester with your advisor to ensure that you are on track with your curricular plan and other departmental academic standards for your major(s).
There is no direct penalty, but not fulfilling certain requirements of the pledge may cause you to get off track of your four year graduation plan. If you spend longer than four years in college, you can incur greater expenses and possibly higher debt.
If you do not meet all pledge requirements, you are no longer eligible for the opportunity to complete the courses needed for your degree free of tuition and comprehensive fee charges. The university will, however, uphold our commitment to provide students with the resources and guidance needed to achieve their academic goals at UB.
The reasons students don't graduate in four years include inadequate planning, not registering for the right classes on time or in sequence, not attempting and earning enough credits each term, not utilizing campus resources to their benefit, and not exploring major and career interests early in their academic experience.
Students sometimes decide to add extra components to their educational program which do add value, but may also add time. Students need to consult with an advisor to determine how to complete additional opportunities (such as studying abroad or pursuing double majors/degrees) in the least time necessary.
If you decide to pursue a different major, contact your advisor immediately. Your advisor will work with you to develop an alternative plan with every effort to keep you on track to graduate in four years.
UB has a number of academic paths to choose from, and timely planning with your advisor will help you to Finish in 4!
If you do not remain continuously enrolled in UB classes from semester-to-semester, graduating in four years (from the date you began) is unlikely. If your status as a student becomes inactive, then so too does your status in Finish in 4. Should you return after a leave, you would be encouraged to continue on a timely path toward graduation.
