UVA grad/journalist critically injured
An Army captain, an interpreter, and two of her CBS news crew are dead, and television journalist Kimberly Dozier lies critically injured after a roadside bomb exploded after they'd left the safety of a Humvee in Baghdad.
Dozier, 39, a well-known foreign correspondent, earned a master's degree in Middle East foreign affairs from UVA in 1993. Several news accounts say that doctors are "cautiously optimistic" after surgery on Dozier at an American military hospital.
"I just heard it on the news," says R.K. Ramazani, founder of UVA's Middle Eastern Studies department. "I'm concerned and unfortunately having trouble finding more information about her condition."
Ramazani, an emeritus professor with 54 years at UVA, says he was shocked to hear about his former student today while driving and listening to National Public Radio.
"She was a good student," says Ramazani, "and very determined to make journalism a career." As her principal thesis reader, Ramazani says he was struck by Dozier's maturity and "tremendous drive."
While in Charlottesville, Dozier bartended at St. Maarten Cafe, according to an article in a UVA alumni publication.
Charlottesville radio host/historian Coy Barefoot met Dozier in the early 1990s when they were both pursuing masters degrees.
"I was fascinated by her experiences," says Barefoot. "We met at St. Maarten's on the Corner and hung out with the same group of friends there."
The two recently reconnected via email, and Barefoot has been hoping to get the globe-trotting journalist to appear on his WINA talk show, "Charlottesville, Right Now."
"She's one of the smartest, most capable people I've ever met– one of those 'wow' kind of people," says Barefoot. "Her nation has really been well-served by her talent."
Barefoot says that when he asked Dozier recently why she put herself in such danger, she replied that she was just doing her job.
"She's fascinated with the Middle East, and the conflicts there fascinate her." says Barefoot. "She was in war zones before she came to UVA."
Barefoot believes Dozier would be upset that her injuries are grabbing so many headlines– especially since two members of her crew, plus an interpreter and a soldier, were killed in the same bombing. At least 40 people died in a wave of attacks across Iraq that day, Monday, May 29.
A day later, Dozier was flown to Ramstein Air Force Base in Germany, for treatment at the Landstuhl Regional Medical Center, a U.S. military hospital.
A CBS report indicates that Dozier's blood pressure dipped precariously and that her pulse actually stopped at one point after the attack. "If this would've happened back in the States," a doctor at the combat hospital told CBS News correspondent Elizabeth Palmer, "she probably would have died."

Kimberly was a focused but fun person. I was a good friend from her time at Maarten's and while she knew what she wanted for a career and needed the job to pay the bills, she loved her time playing with the rest of the staff. If anyone remembers the old cable show 'Barefoot Excursions', Kimberly did a hilarious piece sampling a multitude of Baskins Robbins flavors attempting to see how long she could go before being told '"that's enough". A handful of ex-Maarten's folks are still in town or otherwise connected. We're wishing her well.

I am a huge fan of all the Harry Potter books and movies. And I have loved all the games too. Book 7, the final chapter in the Harry Potter saga, is about to be released. And the next Harry Potter movie, based on book 5, is also about to come out. Book 7 is called Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. In this final chapter, we find out whether Harry lives or dies. My personal opinion, and it's an opinion only because the book's plot is so closely guarded, is that Harry lives. My viewpoint is based on an interview done by author J.K. Rowling in which she said she was toying with writing more Harry Potter books that would follow his adult life. He can't have an adult live if he dies.
I am 31 but these books are so great. They may be technically classified as children's novels, but they totally read on an adult level. And, truth be told, if I had kids I wouldn't let any of them read these books until they were 13. At least not from the fourth book on. For those of you reading my blog, this next part is going to contain spoilers to explain why. So if you haven't read the books or seen the films and you don't want to know what's gonna happen, don't read on. For those of you who have read them or don't care about spoilers, proceed.
Books 1 through 3, The Sorcerer's Stone, Chamber of Secrets, and Prisoner of Azkaban have no deaths. NO ONE DIES! There are some harsh concepts such as betrayal, but nothing a kid under the age of 13 can't handle. But from the fourth book on, that changes. In every book, except book 7 because I have no idea what happens, someone dies. Someone important. And the people who die become people who are more and more close to Harry. My guess is important people are going to die in book 7 too, but that's just a guess.
In book 4, The Goblet of Fire, Harry's name somehow gets dropped into the goblet of fire, even though he is too young. And his name is chosen, thus Harry by law is forced to compete in the Deadly Triwizard Tournament. He must survive three deadly tasks, and things are worse than he knows. He survives the first two tasks. The last one is a maze. And that maze leads him to a trap designed to use his own blood to bring back his deadly enemy, Lord Voldermort. Both Harry and another Triwizard competitor end up in his clutches. Fellow student and champion Cedric Diggory is ordered killed, and Voldemort's minion carries out the murder. That's the first death.
Book 5: This book is extremely dark. And even though the most shocking death happens in book 6, I think this book, The Order of the Phoenix, is hardest to handle. Harry returns to school only to find out the Ministry of Magic has proclaimed him a liar about Voldermort being back. And to ensure Harry shuts up, they install a horrible woman as the new defence against the dark arts teacher. Only, she won't teach them how to defend themselves. And every time Harry insists Voldermort is alive, she holds him for detention and uses her wand to painfully write sentences on his arm. She tortures Harry. And because she works for the ministry itself, no one can stop her. Harry and his friends decide to teach themselves defense which prepares them for the final battle with Voldermort himself at the ministry. But, in the final battle, Sirius Black, Harry's godfather and the only member of his family who actually loves him is killed. Death number 2 and closer to home this time.
Book 6: The Half-Blood Prince features the most shocking of deaths. Fudge, the minister of magic who hadn't believed Harry, has been sacked. Snape now teaches defense against the dark arts. There is a new potions teacher. And yes, the truth about Draco Malfoy that we always suspected is confirmend. Draco is a deatheater just like his father. Draco's assignment this year, kill Dumbledore the headmaster of Hogwarts. However, much of a tick as he is, he is unable to bring himself to do it. Meanwhile, Harry and Dumbledore discover that to destroy Voldermort once and for all, they must find and destroy the seven sections of his soul. Two sections have already been destroyed. 5 to go. Dumbledore and Harry are attacked by deatheaters led by.....SNAPE! Yes, even though Dumbledore stood up for Snape and protected him, Snape is the ultimate betrayer. Harry gets away but Snape himself kills Dumbledore. Then he himself escapes. Harry returns to the Dursley's for the summer as he knows he'll be safe there, but says he won't return to school the following year because he has to find the last five pieces and destroy them. Also, it isn't even certain, now that Dumbledore is dead, if the school will re-open.
Book 7: The Deathly Hallows is anyone's guess. I hope Snape gets what's coming to him for his betrayal. But there are some clues that J.K. herself have said will help you figure out what may happen. The title itself, The Deathly Hallows is a clue. The fact that Harry has his mother's Lily's eyes is important. And if you watch the movie the Prisoner of Azkaban, J.K. says there are some clues hidden in the movie that shadow what's to come. Also, Rowling has confirmed that Dumbledore really is dead. Some people had speculated on whether he really died or not. He did die. I have this book on pre-order. But these events are why I don't think anyone under 13 should read the later stuff. Or if they do, they should read them with their parents so they can discuss what goes on.
The book Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows releases July 21st. The movie, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix releases one week before the book. I am looking forward to both. The game based on the Phoenix movie releases for all formats at the end of June. I'm looking forward to that as well.

Minutemen club win pair on ice against Northeastern, Sacred Heart
October 5, 2009
Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
The Massachusetts' men's club hockey team had an adventure of a weekend, as they not only toppled Northeastern but also took down Sacred Heart at the Wonderland of Ice.
"It was an outstanding weekend, outstanding effort and a really great [end result]," said Head Coach Robert Talloni.
When the Minutemen (3-0-0) traveled to just outside the state's capital, everything came together smoothly, as they shut down the Huskies by a final score of 2-1.
"We made up our mind that we had enough," said Talloni, regarding the history between Northeastern and UMass.
The game against the Huskies was a hard-fought battle, right up until the very end. The Minutemen scored the first two goals of the matchup. A late surge by Northeastern failed to give them the advantage over the Maroon and White.
"There was a whole 20 minutes where we gave all we could give. Mark Leonard stood on his head and denied shot after shot," Talloni said.
Junior Matt Coughlin scored the second goal of the game. "I'm sure the goalie didn't even see it," commented Talloni.
Following its tight victory over the Huskies (2-1-0), UMass traveled down the rabbit hole to the Wonderland of Ice. While in Bridgeport, the Minutemen defeated the Pioneers by the decisive margin of 6-3.
While Sacred Heart scored the first goal, the Minutemen did not succumb to the early pressure.
"We were so confident, we didn't even panic," Talloni said.
UMass mounted a comeback, and soon found themselves up 5-3. Ending the note on a high note for the Minutemen, Captain Alex Goolsby slapped the puck right into the netting.
"It was a shorthanded goal that was just beautiful," Talloni said.
Things are looking up for the Minutemen as they currently stand undefeated, despite starting the season on the road away from their familiar home ice. Not to mention, after the first three games of the season, UMass has outscored its opponents by a dominating 16-5.
While the Minutemen won't play Northeastern for the rest of the current season, they will play Sacred Heart (0-2-0) on Dec. 12, this time at the Mullins Center. The match against the Pioneers will be part of a five game home stretch for UMass.
Though it is possible for worry to set in on the Minutemen who are riding high on a string of victories, UMass is following the same patterns as last year's squad. The previous year, the second game of the season featured the Minutemen facing off with Sacred Heart at the Wonderland of Ice as well. In this game, UMass outskated and outclassed the Pioneers by a score of 8-2.
The 2008-2009 UMass club hockey team also won the game prior (both games were away) before coming home and being trounced by Connecticut 10-2.
The Minutemen hope that their first home game of this season will be different, as they play against local rival Westfield State on Oct. 9.
"Once our skates hit the ice, especially home, it'll be 100 percent effort," Talloni said.
"We know what to do. We know how to read each other's actions. He also stated the players on his squad "play the game well, read the game well but understand the game most importantly. They know what to do."
Last season, UMass tied the Owls by a score of 6-6 on Nov. 1, a game that was tight right to the very end. The next match between the Minutemen and Westfield took place a week later, where the Owls could not catch enough opportunities on offense to produce as many goals as they had a week prior. UMass continued right from where they left off from the Nov. 1 contest, scoring five goals to best Westfield's lone goal.
"We're really looking forward to the opener," Talloni said.
Following its first home game, UMass hit the road once more, as they head out to Troy, N.Y. to face off against Rensselaer. According to Talloni, the Minutemen have not played the Engineers.
On the rest of the upcoming season, Talloni said "We're still looking for magic, to make things happen."

My favorite garden activity is...wait for it... weeding. When my fingers are busy uprooting all the unwanted plants that spring up in every little patch of bare dirt, my thoughts are busy elsewhere. I need to be watchful about what fills my mind during those quieter moments. If I'm not careful, I can wear a rut in my brain, worrying about something beyond the scope of my control…which is just about everything except my own actions and responses.
Lessons from the Garden of Weedin'
Not true, they were where I wanted them, but they were everywhere else too.
The stepping stone walkway I've created (to bypass a needed but unloved guide wire, future blog post?) in my garden was neatly edged with dozens of volunteer seedlings – feverfew, hollyhock, and poppies lined up along the rocks like children pushing and shoving to see a parade. Exuding potential, the various verdant sprouts filled every possible bit of empty space.
And that was the problem. Because I like a certain amount of brown space in my garden view.
In fact, I need it, especially in the paths.
I need to be able to find the path.
I knew what would come of these lovely sprouts – two foot tall plants, dozens of them, flopping over the rocks, burying the paths, making it hard for me to find my way, obscuring the path for others too. They had to go.
I wish I had learned this lesson sooner,
the value of bare space in life,
the joy of nothing,
for myself,
and for my children.
In a recent conversation with a friend, she mentioned her struggle with figuring out "enough" for her life. When has she done enough in her job, in her family's lives, in her housework, in her church involvement? We talked about allowing space for "nothing," and about how hard it is to remember that this "nothing" is "something," that it might be indispensable.
We need those bare spaces in our lives. We need room to breathe. To rest. To be creative. To think long thoughts or no thoughts at all.
As I continued weeding, I remembered hearing an interviewer ask a woman this question: "What do you wish you had done differently?" This woman had invested deeply in her family, homeschooling the children for many years, focusing on good nutrition and encouraging creative expression; they may have been homesteaders. I don't remember all the details. But I do remember her response: "I wish I had baked less bread."
Is baking bread bad? Of course not, but somewhere along the way, she had discovered the truth that
all those good bits can squeeze into every bare space in the garden and obscure the path.
Uprooting handfuls of potentially amazing activities –(I won't try to name yours, but maybe you should) – might be painful in the early stages. But I'm here to say those small bits will grow to full size and produce seeds of their own, and if you're not careful, you might discover that your path has disappeared, that you've lost your way among all the growing busy-ness.
A few bucketfuls of weeds later, order was restored. Feverfew and poppies and hollyhocks are emerging in other corners of the garden, but the path will not be choked with them anytime soon.
I want to be able to find my way through the garden, and I want to keep the path clear for others who walk with me or behind me.

New Zealand legislation provides limited coverage for personal injury. Britz does not accept any liability for personal injuries sustained during the rental, nor for any loss or damage to any personal belongings or property of the customer (or any person or entity related to the customer). Britz strongly recommend that all people travelling in New Zealand take out personal travel insurance.
In the USA a liability is referred to as the "deductible".
All vehicles are insured for the damage to the vehicle or to the property of a third party. The customer is responsible for the first $5,000 ("the liability") for the HiTop and the Voyager campervans and $7,500 ("the liability") for all other campervans of the cost of any damage to third party property or to the rented vehicle, including single vehicle accident (does not include single vehicle roll over), windscreen and tyre damage, towing and recovery costs, theft, fire, break-in or vandalism with the exception of the 'Exclusions'. This also includes the cost of the daily rental for the period the vehicle is being repaired. In addition to these costs, an administration fee of $60 may apply, per claim. The liability applies in respect of each claim, not rental. The $5,000 or $7,500 liability can be reduced by purchasing the Liability Reduction Option or the Britz Inclusive Pack.
Liability Reduction Option
Cost per day Liability reduced to
$45 (maximum charge $2,250) NIL
When the Liability Reduction Option has been purchased, the hirer will have no liability at all with the exception of the 'exclusions'.
The maximum public liability is $20,000,000, sub limits may apply. Please note that the maximum public liability may change during the course of the year for which these terms apply.
Where a customer chooses the standard liability option, any damage to their motorhome or any third party property during the hire will need to be paid during the vehicle drop off process. Costs incurred will be calculated and recovered at end of the hire, regardless of any independent cover they may have. Customers choosing a standard liability option will need to allow sufficient time at drop-off to enable a damage inspection.
Liability Deposit
If the Liability Reduction Option or the Britz Inclusive Pack is not taken, the customer must pay the Liability Deposit. The Liability Deposit is $5,000 or $7,500 and is applicable regardless if the hirer has purchased private travel insurance.
The customer must provide a valid credit card to pay the Liability Deposit and the amount will be debited to the customer's credit card on the day of vehicle collection. The credit card holder must be present and able to sign for the Liability Deposit upon vehicle collection. The credit card holder is jointly and severally liable for any damage to the rental vehicle. Any type of pre-paid travel card is not acceptable as a means to provide a Liability Deposit.
The Liability Deposit is subject to a 3.1% credit card administration fee in addition to the Liability Deposit amount when the credit card used is either a Visa or MasterCard, or 4.6% when the credit card used is American Express. The credit card administration fees are subject to change.
The Liability Deposit is fully refundable, including the credit card surcharge, if the card used to provide the Liability Deposit is a Visa or MasterCard credit card, provided the Vehicle is returned undamaged. Britz recommend that customers use a Visa or MasterCard credit card for the Liability Deposit, as the credit card administration fee that applies when using American Express is not refundable.
The Liability Reduction Option will not apply and the customer is responsible for all costs arising out of, or incurred in connection with:
1. Any damage caused by wilful misconduct (e.g. sitting or standing on the bonnet or roof of the vehicle) or driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or negligence.
2. Any loss or damage to personal belongings or property of the customer (or any person or entity related to the customer). Britz recommends the customer does not leave valuables in the vehicle and that they take out personal travel insurance.
3. Any damage where the customer is charged by local authorities for being careless, showing gross negligence or wilfulness in failing to abide by the local road rules.
4. Retrieving or recovering a vehicle, which may include, but is not limited to a vehicle that has become bogged, submerged, caught, trapped, stuck or restricted in anyway and/or has been abandoned, in each case in circumstances within the control of the customer.
5. Replacing keys, which have been lost or stolen, or retrieval of keys which have been locked in a vehicle.
6. Overhead and underbody damage to the vehicle however caused, except where Liability Reduction Option or the Britz Inclusive Pack has been purchased.
7. Any single vehicle rollover except where the Britz Inclusive Pack has been purchased.
8. Damage caused to the vehicle because total load (kg) has exceeded recommended load as stated in vehicle manual. Vehicles are not to be used for the purpose of transporting and haulage of goods other than what might be reasonably expected of a leisure rental.
9. Damage caused by drivers not identified on the rental agreement and/or drivers whose licence has been cancelled or suspended and/or drivers who have a licence that is classified as a learners or probationary licence.
10. Any damage caused to the vehicle due to the use of snow chains.
11. Any damage associated with the incorrect use of fuel (fuel being diesel or petrol), which includes Bio-Diesel which should not be used, or water or other contamination of fuel.
12. Any water related damage which includes, but is not limited to, vehicle submersion, contact with salt water, creek or river crossings, driving through flooded areas and beach driving.
13. The vehicle rented may only be used to carry the maximum number of passengers as dictated by the vehicle type. If more passengers are carried than what is allowed Britz does not accept any liability.

When Season Seven of the HBO worldwide hit, Game of Thrones, premiered on July 16th, I threw a premiere party for me and three friends. If you know me, I love cooking and entertaining. Hosting a small dinner party complete with a Westeros theme? Sign. Me. Up.
First, let's start off with the food. Since there were only four of us, I decided to keep it simple with the menu: two appetizers, one entree, and one dessert. Also, because we were going to be eating & watching the whole time, I definitely wanted to keep the food easy to eat. So, we went with chicken tenders, pigs in a blanket, spaghetti & meatballs, and cake. Shoutout to Alecis for making the spaghetti noodles & chicken tenders!
Now the real challenge was to make the food Game of Thrones themed. After thinking about it for a couple of days, I finally came up with some names for the dishes. Oh, and there was wine. What kind of GoT themed party would it be without it?! In the words of Tyrion Lannister, "I drink and I know things."
- Appetizers:
- Chicken Littlefingers
- Theon's Favorite Toy (a bit morbid, I know)
- Entree:
- Spaghetti and Dragonballs
- Dessert:
- Sansa's Lemon Cake
I made sure to add cards that explained what each dish was along with their GoT-inspired name. Because I am extra when it comes to party planning & hosting, I decided to wax seal and use my hand calligraphy skills to create menu "scrolls." I used a Tombow pen & a really cool wax sealed set my friend Leslie got me from Versailles. (Thanks, Leslieasy!)
The scrolls were a quick, easy, and cute way to not only tie in the Westeros theme together, but also give guests a little souvenir from my premiere party. It definitely added a nice touch and my guests seemed to appreciate the detail.
Although I won't be hosting a finale party, I do have some ideas ready for next season's premiere party. I definitely have to add a touch of Jon Snow in there somehow… #KingOfTheNorth. Anyway, thanks for appeasing my nerdy side and checking out my Game of Thrones themed party. If any of you are throwing a party, I'd love to see! Tag me on Instagram at @marianeating, just as long as you're willing to bend the knee.. aka hit me with a follow. ;)

Wondering when you will be most likely to conceive? Feel curious about the gender of your unborn baby? During our lifetime, we do need a little enlightenment sometimes. So why not ask for advice through the cards? The pregnancy prediction Tarot will bring you good news and joy. Based off a famous method of prediction, this service will calculate and let you know if and when you will have a child in the future.
Tarot is a great tool when it comes to chirping into the forthcoming circumstance of a person. It is, amazingly, mainly used as a pure system of predicting, consideration, and foresight. The cards, if being read correctly with a clear heart and mind, can reveal your current state. They may even warn the energy around you, behind you, and slightly ahead of you. A holy reading using Tarot will grant you an intention for a proper success whenever you are in a difficult condition. By following the cards' occult guidance, you are then able to paint your own picture and carve out your own future.
Pregnancy is the frequent appellation for growth in human beings. It is the enlargement one or more children (offspring), identified as an origin or fetus, in the uterus. Actually, can Tarot cards predict pregnancy? This technique is very strong and effective because it will give the expectant mothers an authentic result for pregnancy issues in their desire living.
What "The Empress" Says about Pregnancy?
How could simple cards have any ability to either foretell the future, or even have any insight into an individual's current life situation? – Many may be skeptical about the accuracy of Tarot. It is not simply a deck of cards that tells us our fortune or predicts our future; there is so much more about Tarot cards. They are said to be a tool of divination enabling to each one of us to contact with our Higher Self. Also, the cards can reveal aspects of our past, as well as give advice on settling present situations. They are said to aid us on issues we are aware of in our conscious mind.
Did you know on Tarot cards there are pictures of angels? In addition, there are also Egyptian Gods, Greek Gods and Goddesses, and other spiritual concepts. The fascinating thing about the cards is that they appeal to all religions and different religious concepts.
As talking about pregnancy reading with Tarot in this article, let's examine The Empress card. This is a card depicting a pregnant woman, and she is often called a "mother figure." In some particular decks, she is described as a Christian angel (a woman with wings), while she is drawn with a huge resemblance to Mary (a woman has no wing), the mother of Jesus, in other decks. Remember that all decks are different, so illustrations vary. However, to a person who practices Tarot reading based on the ancient Greek mythology, The Empress is the Goddess of fertility, often called the "Earth Mother."
In most cases, The Empress card is depicted as being pregnant, and can be a sign of pregnancy. Yet, she could be conveyed a less literal message. The child she is carrying could be a metaphor of the waiting period until a person's dreams manifest to reality. She represents the womb of creative ideas.
The pregnancy prediction Tarot, with a little help from The Good Spirits, is suitable for all the women who are actively trying to conceive a baby, or those couples just curious about their future children.

Tory councils tell Osborne "No more cuts!"
It appears that even stanch Conservatives have had enough of the inner-circle of government's 'austerity' measures.
In an unusual move, Conservative led local authorities have formed an alliance with Labour and LibDem led authorities to tell Osborne enough is enough.
The Conservative controlled Local Government Association (LGA) said in a letter to the Observer that they have already imposed cuts of 40% since 2010 and can not afford more cuts.
They state that any further cuts will have more serious ramifications for community life and social care and will have a knock-on effect on other services such as the NHS,
"Councils have worked hard to shield residents from the impact of funding cuts. However, efficiencies cannot be remade or buildings resold," they say.
"Further local government funding reductions over the next five years are not an option. The new government must consider the consequences that further funding cuts, without radical…

A warning- there's going to be a flood of posts today. And by flood, I mean probably two. Maybe three. There's no stopping me.
So, as y'all can see, I haven't been too consistant with posting. I've read a bazillion different bloggers write about hitting walls in writing and posting. I was always like "Who cares? Just suck it up and post." Well, I get it now.
I'm pretty sure I just got bored. I've been doing the same thing now since I started in September. One post and recipe a week. Blahblahblah. After a while, even my incredibly witty and hilarious banter doesn't cut it if it's the same old thing week after week.
So I'm gonna revamp. I'm drawing inspiration from a make-up blog I follow (make fun all you want), where she does different series.
First, the Key Lime Pie video post will not be the last! I'm hoping to do a video post once a month. Along with a meal challenge my friend Richard and I have done in the past that was a ton'o'fun. Basically he goes nutso in the grocery store buying a bunch of random ingredients and I have to use all of them to create a cohesive and edible meal.
So there's just a couple series ideas I have, but I'd love your input. What series would want to see? Video or otherwise. If you have any awesome series idea (the more ridiculous the better) you can email me, tweet me (just click the twitter icon below) comment down below or send smoke signals.
1 comment on New Happenings.
Drinks! Weird foods that no one thinks of eating but can be delicious (escargot aw yeahhh)! One-ingredient-three-ways (or however many)! On-the-go challenge: no cooking allowed! Uhhhhh. Can't think of any more right now, I just got off work, sorry. I can't wait for new thingggs!

Summer camps offer many different programs with sessions of various length throughout the summer, including overnight programs, daytime programs, week-long sessions, and sessions that last the whole summer. Including your child in the search for the right one will ensure that you decide together on the best fit. Further research into your top picks will assure that you are leaving your child in the right hands. A little digging will also help you know exactly how much money you will need to budget for.
Part 1 of 3:
Creating a Shortlist
1Enlist your child in the search. Ensure that they will look forward to the experience by making them part of the decision-making process. If the idea of camp is yours rather than theirs, broach the subject casually by asking them to think about what they would expect from a fun camp. Allow them some time to think it over so they don't feel compelled to answer for the sake of answering.[1]
2Consider your child's interests. Create a list of their favorite activities. Mark their most favorite to see if there are any camps devoted exclusively to this subject. If not, use your list to find a camp whose programs cover the majority of your child's interests. These may include:[2][3]
- Sports
- Art and music
- Math and science
- Religion
- Outdoor/nature activities
3Choose between overnight and day camp. Determine the length of your child's stay. Decide between sending them to camp for a few hours each day and for whole weeks at a time. If you decide on a day camp, increase your options by also considering other institutions that offer summer programs. Such institutions include:[4][5]
- Activity centers
- Churches and synagogues
- Colleges and universities
- Fine art centers
- Municipalities
- Museums
- Zoos
4Search by location. Some camps may offer bus transportation to designated drop-off/pick-up sites outside of camp to minimize the distance that parents need to travel.[6] For day camps, extend your search a little wider than you can personally drive each day and ask about provided transportation when you contact the camp. For overnight camps, extend your search over an even greater area since you will have to make the trip less frequently.[7]
- Local day camps will probably offer a limited variety of locales. Still, ask your child where their ideal camp would be located. Would they prefer the deep woods? Do they imagine it situated by a river, lake, bay, or ocean? Or is the location less important than the facilities and activities provided?
5Do an internet search. Refer to the criteria that you and your child have established. Add your child's age as well as your budget to the list. Perform a keyword search to find prospective camps that meet your criteria (example: "overnight nature camps in upstate New York" or "basketball day camps in Southern California").[8] Or, visit websites that perform the search for you based on your entered input, such as:[9]
- find.acacamps.org (the American Camp Association)
- www.camps.com
- www.kidscamps.com
- www.summercamps.com
6Cull your options. Treat finding a summer camp like applying to colleges. Compose a list of your top picks. Give yourself some fallbacks in the event that your top pick is all booked up for the summer. Additionally, determine your child's top pick by presenting them with three camps that focus on their interests with different approaches. For example, if your child is eager to learn outdoor/nature skills, ask them to decide between:[10]
- An overnight camp set in the deep woods that focuses exclusively on this subject.
- An overnight camp that offers other activities, as well as field trips into town, so they can get a breather from this one subject.
- A local day camp that focuses on outdoor/nature skills but allows your child to return home at night.
Part 2 of 3:
Researching Camps
1Visit the camp during an active session. Get a sense of what a day there is really like by taking a tour while it is in full swing. If the camp only runs summer-long sessions, pay a visit the preceding summer. If they run multiple sessions throughout the summer, go during a preceding session. Note the following:[11]
- The mood of the kids
- The enthusiasm of the staff
- The staff's supervisory and safety skills
- How many children are assigned to one counselor
2Inspect the facilities and equipment. Make sure the camp is equipped to handle any special needs your child may have regarding food, health, or handicaps.[12] Take a careful look at the conditions to make sure they match the brochure's photographs. Measure their adequacy versus your child's concerns and personal goals. For example:
- If your child isn't too thrilled about a down-to-earth, rustic experience, make sure the campers' cabins have reliable air-conditioning and leak-proof roofs.
- If the aim is for your child to develop particular skills in, say, computer science or tennis, check the quality of the equipment to make sure they won't be using out-of-date computers or worn-out rackets.
3Ask about the camp's aims. Expect many camps to have a specific mission or underlying philosophy. Have a conversation with the director about the camp's goals, even if their promotional material mentions it. Be aware that faith-based camps may still emphasize core concepts of their faith even though they accept campers from outside the faith or downplay their church's sponsorship in their brochure. Camps may emphasize:[13]
- Strong interaction, camaraderie, and community-building between campers.
- Leadership and self-reliance
- Competition
4Find out the camp's return rate. Consider this an excellent litmus test of the camp's quality. Ask the director how many of the same children return year after year. Time your visit to coincide with the first day of camp or Parents Day, when other parents will be on hand. Find those parents whose children are similar to your own and ask about their experiences. For instance:[14]
- If the camp specializes in certain activities, have their kids shown significant progress in developing those skills?
- Have their children had issues with others at camp? If so, did the staff handle the situation effectively?
- Did their children enjoy participating in other activities even if they weren't their strong suit?
5Check the camp's accreditation. Whether the camp supervises your child overnight or only during the daytime, ease your mind by making sure the camp has received accreditation from the American Camps Association or a similar advisory board.[15] Double-check with local authorities to see if the camp has passed all required safety and health inspections.[16] Ensure that your child will be well cared for in your absence.
- Such accreditation only applies to actual camps, rather than summer programs run by museums, fine art centers, and the like.
Part 3 of 3:
1Ask about additional fees and expenses. Expect one camp's base fee to differ from another's in terms of what is covered. Ask the director for a complete list of additional charges that you will have to pay on top of the base fee. Additionally, ask if your child will need hard cash on hand for onsite canteens or off-site excursions. Extra fees may include:[17]
- Clothing and/or equipment
- Insurance
- Meals
- Transportation
2Seek discounts. Find out if the camp offers any specials that may reduce their usual base fee. Ask if they offer any scholarships (sometimes called "camper ships") that your child may qualify for based on your income. If not, check for any alternate discounts that may be offered. These could include:[18]
- Early enrollment
- Group discounts
- Referrals
3Look into year-long programs with other organizations. After you establish the total price for summer camp, determine whether you can afford it on top of the expense of any programs that your child (or entire family) take part in during the school year. If not, consider enrolling your child or family in annual memberships that include summer programs or offer deeper discounts for them. Such organizations may include:[19][20]
- The Boys & Girls Club
- The Boy & Girl Scouts
- Fine art centers
- Museums
- The YMCA
Community Q&A
QuestionI want to do a camp that let's me wander around so I can explore on my own! Any camps like that?Community AnswerMost likely not. Camps are responsible for your safety and well-being, so you would likely be monitored by a counselor.

According to documents filed with the Registrar of Companies, the latest tranche is part of the Series J round announced by the company a little over six months ago, and which saw the entry of Singapore-based investment entity Brother Fortune Apparel Pte Ltd, on to the company's investment cap table.
When contacted by ET, a company spokesperson said, "The raising of fresh funds at a consistent pre-money valuation, is a reflection of the robust performance of Snapdeal, and its continued focus on building a longterm business, based on strong fundamentals, like best-in-class customer experience and consistent growth in net revenue."
In February, Brother Fortune Apparel Pte Ltd, an investment entity that represents several Chinese high net-worth individuals, had invested about Rs 335 crore in Snapdeal. The investment entity was advised by Iron Pillar, the venture capital firm focused on mid-market technology investments, and which has been founded by former Citi India M&A head Sameer Nath and ex-Morgan Creek Capital director Anand Prasanna.
Additionally, Bennett, Coleman & Co Ltd, the publisher of The Economic Times, had also participated in the February round, and was issued 15,638 warrants estimated at Rs 25.49 crore.
Also at the time, in a series of secondary transactions, Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan, one of the world's largest pension funds, had also bought out an early backer of Snapdeal, early-stage investment firm Saama Capital, with Sequoia Capital, which had entered the company's cap table post the acquisition of digital payments platform Freecharge, also selling a portion of its stock in the company. This round is not part of Snapdeal's efforts to raise money for Freecharge

Top rated Tourist Attractions in New Orleans
New Orleans is famous all over the world for Cajun cuisine, jazz music and vibrant celebrations of Mardi Gras. It is a city that is rich in cultures, which reflect in their language, food, and music. According to my friend who is running a business which you can visit here, New Orleans is a walking city, with most attractions located close to or in French Quarter. You can use a bus to move around the great city. The major attractions include:
French Quarter
The French Quarter is the place frequented by tourists among all other attractions in the city. It is situated at a bend near the Mississippi River. The major attraction in the Quarter is the architecture. The Quarter is also a perfect place for entertainment and dining. There are old buildings within the Quarters that are as old as three hundred years and portray the influences of the French over the years. Most of them are now occupied and have restaurants, souvenir shops, galleries, hotels and jazz spots among other entertainment modes.
Bourbon Street is the most famous in the French Quarter but not the major highlight of the region. The street is serene by day but at night it transforms into a noisy street, and it might not feel so safe. The other known road is Royal Street that will offer you a great history mix, unique shopping offers, fine cuisine, hotels, galleries, and high-end stores. The most significant building on this street is the Court of Two Sisters built in 1832 and now hosts a restaurant famous for jazz music. If you are looking for good music and restaurants, this is the place you should frequent when you are in New Orleans.
Mardi Gras
Mardi Gras is a signature event in New Orleans. Its celebrations stretch for two weeks and end on Shrove Tuesday with an epic finale on the day before the observance of Ash Wednesday. The festivities include a myriad of entertainment, and they intensify as the closing day draws near. Onlookers crowd the sidewalks and their balconies as they watch the parades and to get a few of the beaded necklaces that are used to decorate the floats. People congregate on Bourbon Street mainly but the entire French Quarter is usually crowded.
Jackson Square
At the center of the square there is an equestrian statue of Andrew Jackson made in 1856 and currently surrounded by greenery and beautiful trees.St.Louis Cathedral is a landmark that stands prominently at one end of the square. Close to the Cathedral, there is the Cabildo and Presbytere, and they both come from the Louisiana state museum.
These are a few attractions among the attractions you can get in New Orleans. You can visit the Preservation Hall and the museums in New Orleans. You can also consider spending a day at the City Park. It is a place that you can visit as a family because the kids will love to have fun at the amusement park. Before you visit the great city, research on the exciting places to visit and the things to do. The research on New Orleans will help you to plan your trip accordingly.

The Dispute Resolution Board Foundation (DRBF) was founded in 1996 as a global not-for-profit organisation dedicated to promoting the avoidance and resolution of contract disputes using the unique and proven Dispute Board (DB) method.
The Australasian Chapter of the DRBF was initially established in 2003 as the Dispute Resolution Board Australasia (DRBA). Its growth over the next ten years led to it being established in January 2013 as Region 3 of DRBF.
The initial focus of the DRBF was to assist the parties to construction contracts to improve the outcome of their projects. Historically, the complexity of construction projects and the uncertainties associated with the many variables to be overcome in their delivery led to many disputes in this class of contracts. As the Dispute Board concepts have developed, they have come to be recognised as beneficial to any commercial contract with elements of uncertainty and/or where the contract work is to be conducted over a considerable period of time.

SAN FERNANDO, Philippines — Bodies in life jackets washed up on islands and drifted at sea Wednesday as more than 100 divers probed deeper inside a Philippine ferry that capsized during a powerful typhoon.
While the divers have only found bodies so far, officials were not willing to give up hope of finding more survivors among the more than 800 people missing since the seven-story ferry listed and went down in a half-hour or less Saturday.
"There is a slim chance that we can still find survivors" inside the ferry, coast guard Lt. Cmdr Rogelio Villanueva said. "As the days pass, indeed the chance is getting slimmer."
Transportation Undersecretary Maria Elena Bautista said she was still hoping for "a miraculous air pocket somewhere in the ship." She said 95 Filipino and eight American divers were taking part in the search.
The disaster could raise the storm's death toll in the typhoon-prone country to more than 1,300, with 329 people confirmed dead from flooding and landslides and more than 200 missing.
Typhoon Fengshen, downgraded to a tropical storm, made landfall Wednesday morning in Hong Kong and southeast China, which is still struggling to recover from flooding earlier this month.
Only four dozen ferry survivors have been found so far. Three more bodies wearing life vests believed to be from the ship washed up Wednesday on Burias island, 55 miles away, while ships were dispatched to pick up groups of up to 55 bodies spotted by surveillance aircraft.
Just the tip of the bow of the 23,824-ton Princess of the Stars was jutting from the water. The storm's aftermath had kept rescue workers away until calm, sunny conditions Tuesday allowed some of the 35 divers to slither inside for the first time.
Coast guard Lt. Cmdr Inocencio Rosario said he dove to examine the rear end of the ship and found it resting and stable on the seabed 120 feet underwater. Officials had feared that it could slip deeper into the water.
Four U.S. Navy rubber boats with eight American divers went to the site Wednesday morning. Five ships, a P3 surveillance plane, two Navy HH-60 helicopters and a pilotless surveillance plane also were deployed by the U.S. military to help search for bodies and possible survivors.
Bautista said Sulpicio Lines, owner of the vessel, will siphon off the estimated 71,300 gallons of the ferry's special fuel oil _ a mix of bunker oil and diesel.
A distraught man whose cousin and niece were among the missing climbed a tower at the Philippine Ports Authority compound in Manila, carrying a placard demanding that the ferry's owner take relatives to the ferry site or where the bodies were being taken, as other relatives have sought. He was persuaded to come down.
Relatives have questioned why the ship was allowed to leave Manila late Friday for a 20-hour trip to Cebu with a typhoon approaching.
President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo, on a trip to the U.S., ordered a thorough probe, assured that anyone found responsible would be held accountable and said she hoped to find ways to avoid similar incidents in the future.
Sulpicio Lines said the ferry sailed with coast guard approval.
Debate began anew on safe-sailing rules in a country prone to storms _ Fengshen was the seventh typhoon this year _ and dependent on ferries to get around the sprawling archipelago.
Associated Press Writers Teresa Cerojano and Oliver Teves in Manila contributed to this report.

CC Camp Volunteer Fire Department History
CC Camp VFD's First Asst. Chief
Bobby Stanley
In the fall 1980 Osler Jenkins, George Wilmoth, Wade Mounce and A. L. Sloop originated a petition to start a fire department in the Friendship area of Surry County. This petition was circulated and signed by many of the area residents and was presented to Jimmy Atkins the Surry County Fire Marshal.
An organizational meeting was held on 12-02-1980 at the Friendship Baptist Church Fellowship Hall. About 60 area residents met and voted to start Surry County's seventeenth fire department. The residents selected an eleven member steering committee consisting of four officers and seven board of directors. The steering committee was directed to begin looking at sites for the fire station, to decide on a name for the fire department and to begin drafting bylaws. Nineteen persons volunteered for fire training.
Members of the board of directors were Alvis Beach, R. J. Cummings, Bob Park, Clarence Moody, Billy Gentry, Larry Bauguess, all of Elkin, Rt. 3 and Vaughn Bauguess off State Road, Rt. 2.
Officers elected at the meeting were Guy H. Taylor of Elkin, Rt. 3, president. Keith E. Combs of Elkin, Rt. 3, vice president. Mary Ann Neuen of Elkin, Secretary, and Margaret Bates of Elkin, Rt. 2 treasurer
C.C. Camp Volunteer Fire Department, Inc was the name selected by members at the next meeting of the department. A set of by-laws for the department was also approved at the meeting and a fund raising committee was appointed. The fund raising committee consisted of Osler Jenkins, Mary Chappell, Ray Childress, Margaret Bunell and Frank Wagoner.
In 1980 fire departments served a four mile radius of their station. It was the recommendation of the fire marshal to put the department four miles from the Elkin and State Road boundary lines to have coverage in all areas. The steering committee selected and committed to purchase a site on CC Camp Road just below the airport. The 1.6 acre property know as the "Hampton property" was purchased for $4,000.00 from Ed Chappell of Elkin.
The fund raising committee began work immediately. There were bake sales, auctions, an Easter Egg hunt, raffles, etc. every week. The Friendship Senior Citizens Ladies Club quilted a quilt to be raffled. Over $900.00 was raised on the quilt. The committee raised $6,100 in 65 days, more than enough for the purchase of the land. The deed to the land was transferred to C. C. Camp Volunteer Department in May of 1981.
Wyatt and Wyatt Construction Co. owned by Aaron and Brin Waytt both C. C. Camp fireman volunteered to oversee construction. Grading began in November 1981, and major construction was completed in the summer of 1984. The department was inspected and certified on August 1, 1984.
Fund-raising was a major function of the department for many years. There was great support from everyone in the fire district. Department members, the Ladies Auxiliary and Friendship Senior Citizens began raising money for the new department building as well as for needed equipment.
On June 8, 1981 the department elected a new slate of officers to replace the eleven member steering committee. Alvis Beach was elected president, while Guy Taylor stepped from President to vice-president. Mary Ann Neuen and Margaret Bates were elected secretary and treasurer. A seven member board of directors was also chosen. R. J. Cummings, Clarence Moody, Larry Bauguess, Webb Richardson, Keith Combs, James Cockerham and Robby Day were elected to the board of directors.
Tommy Chappell was elected fire chief and Bobby Stanley was elected assistant fire chief.
In June of 1981 fire department members began circulation a petition calling for a fire tax referendum to sustain the department. At least 15 percent of the registered voters who own property in the fire district must sign the petition requesting the tax be imposed on the property owners. The signatures were gathered and the petition passed on a ballot in November 1981.
The department's first pumper was a 1958 Ford loaned to C. C. Camp by the Town of Dobson Fire Department.
The first truck purchased was a 1969 used oil truck. The truck was converted to a tanker by department members using a truck donated by the Elkin Fire Department.
In July 1984 the department accepted delivery of a new 1984 Chevrolet Emergency One pumper. The new truck was purchased at a cost of $64,000.00. The pumper carries 750 gallons of water and has a 1,000 g.p.m. pump.
On 8-25-1985 the new building was dedicated. Rep. David Diamont, D-Surry was the guest speaker and praised those involved for their work and challenged them to go a step farther by involving everyone in the community in the department. Almost all of the 22 firefighters and their families were present at the dedication. Fire Officers at this time were R. J. Carter fire chief, Bobby Stanley, assistant chief, Benny Wagoner, captain and Frankie Cheek, lieutenant.
Including the building, grounds, trucks, equipment and furnishings, the total bill for the department came to about $400,000.00. About $260,000 of that was raised by donations and fund-raising. $130,000.00 was borrowed from Yadkin Valley Bank and Trust. The loan was secured by the building, property, equipment owned by the department and the personal guarantee of fireman and former president Alvis Beach.

Having support is very important with weight loss. If everyone can get on board, it will be easier to achieve your goals. Talk to your family (or friends, roommates, etc) before starting your diet and let them know your plan. Explain why you are making this decision and ways they can help you succeed. Even if they do not change with you, that's okay! Go forward with your plan! They may decide to join you once they see you succeed with weight loss.
Figure out how many calories you should eat each day to lose weight. Losing weight isn't all about weight. The more aware you are of the calories in the food you eat, the more easily you'll be able to eat the right amount of food and do the right amount of exercise to drop a couple of pounds. Take your food journal and look up each item individually. Keep a running tally and add up your calorie total for the day.
Italiano: Perdere Peso, Español: bajar de peso, Deutsch: Abnehmen, Português: Perder Peso, Nederlands: Afvallen, Français: perdre du poids, Русский: сбросить вес, 中文: 减肥, Čeština: Jak zhubnout, Bahasa Indonesia: Menurunkan Berat Badan, 日本語: ダイエット, ไทย: ลดน้ำหนัก, Tiếng Việt: Giảm Cân, हिन्दी: वज़न कम करें (kaise vajan kam kare), 한국어: 체중 감량하는 법, Türkçe: Nasıl Kilo Verilir
Work indulgence foods into your calorie plan. If you do want to have something that is a little higher in calories, then make sure that you work it into your overall calorie goal for the day. For example, if you are following a 1,800 calorie plan, and you want to have a brownie that is 300 calories, then you would only have 1,500 calories left for the day. https://www.facebook.com/Philosophy-Of-Health-382703465921301/

Read what teachers are saying about Sunshine Online.
1. Teachers' general comments about the program.
General Comments
"Sunshine Online is an amazing website that is integrated into our daily classroom programme. Teachers use the stories as a shared. It is great for differentiated learning because each group can read stories that are appropriate to their level and then complete the blackline master activities available in the Staffroom. The online activities such as "Lettergetter" "Wordslurper" and "MightyWriter" support the students to read for meaning and understanding. It is easy to integrate reading into maths because there are stories available for the different strands.
The "Bookshelf" is great to use for SSR or as a follow-up activity. We use the bookshelf when we are covering certain topics as many non-fiction books are available on the bookshelf. We use the Sunshine Online website constantly for our ESOL students. The older students feel more comfortable reading an easy book online rather than holding an emergent book in their hand. Macleans Primary thoroughly enjoys Sunshine Online."
Angelique Wendzich, Associate Principal, Macleans Primary School
"Sunshine Online is the primary online resource used within our junior school. It provides an outstanding range of literacy and maths activities. Our students love it and it is their 'go to site'. Sunshine Online is used throughout the day, supporting literacy and numeracy. We are impressed by the massive selection of targeted and engaging activities.
I use the overview of stories and skills/knowledge to help construct my long-term plan of big book coverage. It is detailed and allows me to match a Sunshine Online big book to the reading focus I have set for the week.
There are a huge number of software online options marketed to support literacy and numeracy. We have never found one that can compete with the price, ease of use, engagement factor and range of activities and content. It's our favourite for good reason. Congratulations to the sunshine online team for providing such a versatile and outstanding resource."
Karen Huffadine, Junior Team Leader and DP, Cromwell Primary School
"Cockle Bay School teachers, particularly the junior school, utilise Sunshine Online for their engaging, motivating and fun reading activities. It has become part of our Reading Programme, as it helps our learners to develop and consolidate their knowledge, skills and strategies. Our students love it !"
Marie Todd, Assistant Principal, Cockle Bay School
"Springlands School has been using Sunshine Online for the last 5 years. During this time our students have loved the books and activities that support the classroom literacy programmes. The ebooks are levelled and easy to access.
Sunshine Online also has maths stories with activities to support the mathematical curriculum. Children can access this at school or at home and we would recommend it as an excellent resource to promote a love of reading and maths. "
Claire Hutchison, Teacher Springlands School

A group of people; a condition or quality.
[Old English -hād, originally an independent noun meaning 'person, condition, quality'.]
Examples in which the sense is of a group include brotherhood, sisterhood, and priesthood. In neighbourhood, it now has a weaker sense of an area of a town rather than the group of one's neighbours. The more common usage is of a condition or quality, as in childhood, adulthood, motherhood, falsehood, likelihood, and livelihood. See also -head.

During his surprise visit to SVU, Elder Dallin H. Oaks joined Sister Kristen Oaks on stage, sharing his personal daily routine that allows him to stay connected to the Spirit. During the address, he admitted, "Kristen is the enforcement mechanism for family prayer . . . it is not at all unusual for her to chase me down the hall after I've gone out the door and summon me back to have family prayer. It's not that I don't value it, it's just that I have been praying and studying all morning and I'm susceptible to forget it."
Elder Dallin H. Oaks of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints surprised attendees of the Southern Virginia University Education Conference on Friday morning as he joined his wife, Sister Kristen Oaks, during her address.
Sister Oaks, a lifelong educator, was the keynote speaker at the school's 20th annual conference.
In the opening session of the two-day conference, Sister Oaks delivered a message titled "Staying Committed: Faith in Every Footstep" to nearly 350 attendees in Southern Virginia's Stoddard Center.
"I come to you as a learner-in-process," Sister Oaks said, adding that, "learning about the Savior is the highest form of study."
