The Royal British Legion, Spain District North has a new District Chaplain, with Father Ray Andrews taking over the role from the Reverend Terence Samson.
Father Ray was born in Greenwich, London and spent a good deal of time there, living briefly in Spain and Southern Africa. He trained as a psychotherapist, specialising in addiction, and still practices today at a clinic in Alicante.
His last London parish was St George the Martyr in Southwark, where he was parish priest to the Head Office of The Royal British Legion on Borough High Street. Father Ray came to live in Spain in 2015, taking the position of Chaplain in the Costa Blanca Chaplaincy.
Father Ray said: "I was delighted and honoured to be asked to serve as Chaplain for the District North of The RBL here in Spain, particularly given my association with the organisation in London. I look forward to this happy association."

All Access Follows Brantley Gilbert: Week-Long Album Launch and 'Folds Of Honor' Charity Ride: Weekend Wrap-Up
May 28, 2014 at 7:22 AM (PT)
VALORY MUSIC's BRANTLEY GILBERT continued on his trek from #AthensToArlington (his hometown of ATHENS, GA to ARLINGTON NATIONAL CEMETERY in WASHINGTON D.C.) over the weekend, with several stops across the Country.
GILBERT, who paired a week-long HARLEY DAVIDSON motorcycle ride/ publicity tour for his new album "Just As I Am" with efforts to bring awareness to the charitable organization FOLDS OF HONOR, wrapped the fourth day of his tour in GREENVILLE, SC at a BEST BUY appearance and performance.
Prior to playing four acoustic songs for the chanting crown, APRIL TRENT was introduced as a FOLDS OF HONOR scholarship recipient, following the loss of her husband in combat. APRIL, who was a soldier herself, told the emotional story of how she was notified of her husband's death, and the complications that followed while trying to be with his body as he was brought back home. FOLDS OF HONOR helped the TRENT family financially, providing scholarships to the couple's two children.
After GILBERT's performance, the first few hundred people who had wristbands were invited to meet BRANTLEY. However, to not disappoint fans, he then invited anyone who had purchased his album to meet him, making for several hundred cheers from the crowd.
Day five kicked off with an early call to travel to the small town of GAFFNEY, SC, where SIRIUSXM host STORME WARREN threw an on air "Just As I Am" album premiere party at HAROLD's RESTAURANT. Described as a "FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS" town that shuts down to go watch the local football game on weekends, GAFFNEY is home to just over 12,000 residents- many of which skipped school and work, hoping to catch a glimpse of BRANTLEY.
SIRIUSXM "THE HIGHWAY" host STORME and producer BRITT spoke to GILBERT about the new album, played some produced tracks for listeners, and introduced a couple tunes that he performed on-site acoustically. Several SIRIUSXM subscribers from the area were invited to attend the event, and to indulge in HAROLD's RESTAURANT's famous chili burgers and chicken fries. Arguably, a breakfast of champions at eight o'clock in the morning!
BRANTLEY and his hometown friends then loaded up on their HARLEY DAVIDSONS for the hour trek NORTH to the next stop at BEST BUY in CHARLOTTE, NC. Once again, he introduced another FOLDS OF HONOR scholarship recipient family, performed a few songs acoustically, and was gracious enough to meet all fans who had purchased the new album, regardless of the amount of people, or time constraints of the event.
We woke up in CHARLOTTE, NC for day six, and headed over to the CHARLOTTE MOTOR SPEEDWAY, prior to NASCAR's "HISTORY 300" race. BIG MACHINE LABEL GROUP had sponsored driver KYLE LARSON's #42 car, with BRANTLEY GILBERT's "Just As I Am" album artwork on the rear. This was the first time that BRANTLEY and KYLE had a chance to meet, before quickly being ushered into a press conference with media from all over the world. GILBERT spoke about growing up as a racing fan, and explained his #AthensToArlington tour. He told the press about the FOLDS OF HONOR organization, and wished KYLE luck in the afternoon's race. That well-wish did not fall on deaf ears, as LARSON went on to win the "HISTORY 300" race, just a few hours later.
By that time however, BRANTLEY was several thousand feet in the air, jet-bound for a performance at the TREETOP MUSIC FESTIVAL in IOWA. After the show, while en route back to CHARLOTTE, he made a pit stop in INDIANAPOLIS the following morning (day seven), prior to the "INDIANAPOLIS 500" race where he was featured on driver SAGE KARAM's #22 car. After a brief visit, BRANTLEY then hopped in a helicopter, bound for CHARLOTTE to perform the pre-race concert at the "COCA-COLA 600" race where NASCAR fans went wild for BRANTLEY's rockin' performance and pyro-technics.
After meeting some CLEAR CHANNEL Country WKKT/CHARLOTTE listeners and military personnel at the track, It was once again time to hit the road again for 100 miles, making our way to meet 2,500 screaming fans at HARLEY DAVIDSON of GREENSBORO, NC. In true BRANTLEY fashion, after making appearances in three states and putting on three performances within 24 hours, he still took the time to meet radio listeners from CLEAR CHANNEL MEDIA + ENTERTAINMENT Country WTQR/GREENSBORO, and every single fan that had purchased his new album ... and it took hours.
The #AthensToArlington trip came to a close on day eight- MEMORIAL DAY. After a five-hour bus trip NORTH to WASHINGTON D.C., we arrived at ARLINGTON NATIONAL CEMETERY. Joining on this leg of the trip, was FOLDS OF HONOR scholarship recipient SARAH WHITE, whose father CAPTAIN DENNIS WHITE had been killed while on duty. CAPTAIN WHITE was laid to rest at ARLINGTON, and SARAH and BRANTLEY participated in a wreath-laying ceremony in his honor. Additionally, we were privvy to a tour of the CEMETERY, an in-depth and up close explanation of the "CHANGING OF THE GUARD" ceremony, and witness to BRANTLEY and SARAH laying a wreath at the tomb of the unknown soldier. Several grown men of BRANTLEY's entourage shedded tears as they looked on. Afterwards, we departed in silence, and made our way back to the bus, closing out a very memorable and exciting week.
BRANTLEY GILBERT's new album "Just As I Am" is in stores and online now, and features his PLATINUM single "Bottoms Up" and current single "Small Town Throwdown." Catch him on CMT-TV next WEDNESDAY (6/4) performing live on the "CMT MUSIC AWARDS" at 7p (ET). Also, check out BRANTLEY's exclusive "10 QUESTIONS WITH ALL ACCESS" interview here.

I usually think of myself as quick and smart. However, lately I am not so sure. Today, I am truly realizing the value of a plan. Yesterday, I laid out my plan or productivity schedule for the week. With doing that, I know how I should be spending my week and when I am being realistic about my abilities and time. For the first time that I can recall, I have looked at my week, decided how I would like to spend my time (to be the most productive), and made decisions today to honor that. Can you imagine that? It is hard for me to believe. Also, how many years has it taken me to honor my plan?
The real question is… will I continue to honor it and myself?
Do you have a plan? Are you honoring it? Are you honoring yourself?
Until tomorrow,

Mississippi Gulf Coast Half Marathon Race Recap
This is my race recap of the Mississippi Gulf Coast Half Marathon Race Recap with a little weekend fun thrown in.
Mississippi Gulf Coast Half Marathon Race Recap
December 10th and the 11th was the setting for the inaugural race. Many months ago when the directors of the Louisianna Marathon announced they were doing a race in Mississippi I knew I wanted in! I signed up for the "Double Down" challenge where I ran in both the 5k on Saturday and the Half on Sunday. I even signed up Mr. Sippi to do the 5k.
What's not to like about running along the mostly unobstructed beach views. While I've not attended the Louisiana marathon post-race party it supersedes itself!
Just before 5 PM I left work, raced home where I found my husband behind the wheel of the RV and ready to pull out. I hopped in and Mississippi Gulf Coast we were bound. Since we were doing the 5k the next morning and were not going to arrive before the expo closed, I had a friend pick up our packets.
We met him for dinner at Longhorns in Gulf Port before arriving at the Majestic Oaks RV Park where we'd later meet more friends for the weekend. After 11 PM we were finally settled in and ready for an early start, how early? Way too early, keep reading.
Saturday – 5k Race
I got up early, started my race day routine and shortly after 6 AM we were already in an Uber car headed to the start…..Now, here comes the funny (not so funny at the time) part. The 5k didn't start until 8:00 AM unlike the 7:00 AM start for the half tomorrow. Timewise, everything went exceptionally well. In record time Uber was there. You always allow some time in case they are not any close. Then you allow time at the race start too. So I did not realize we were almost 2 hours early! Poor hubs tried to tell me we had plenty of time but like any good man, he went along with it.
Thankfully, the Palace Casino is next to the start and we hung out in there instead of standing in the below-freezing temps outside. Yes, you hear me right, below-freezing temps at the beach this is not a normal! We stayed in the warmth until the very last minute and at the start my Garmin registered 30 degrees with 6 mph winds.
I stayed with the hubs the entire race. He's been dealing with PF and neither of us knew if he would be able to run. I'm happy to report we crossed the finish line hand in hand and pain-free! We each got a medal for our efforts too.
While it was cold the after party was pretty sweet! In true Louisiana style, we had shrimp and okra gumbo. Not something I'd normally eat before 9 AM but it was hot and oh so good! They even had a tuna dip I did not try, various fruits and then I quit looking once I saw they had COFFEE!
We then headed back to our campground where we showered and relaxed. We wanted to go to the expo and we met up with Jodi and Ricky! Although I've been IG friends for awhile, Jodi I met last weekend at the Panama City Beach race and Ricky just today. Literally, there was no meeting period at all. It was like we've always known each other. They are such a fun couple and we laughed and picked on each other the entire time!!
We went to eat lunch with them and got them checked into their hotel at the Beau Rivage. We did a little slot playing, checked out the pool and saw the sunset!
We hung out all afternoon long until time to go back to the campground to meet up with Valorie and her family for dinner. I met her through Holly at the Montgomery race and since then we've interacted mostly about races and camping, they camp a lot too. When she found out I was doing MSGC and staying in our RV we started making plans to stay together. She was so gracious the week before to invite us all to her camper for dinner on Saturday.
Her husband grilled chicken and she had all the fixings for fajita's and pasta as well. We brought guacamole dip and cheesecake and visited with other friends over our firepit. It would have been very cold without it!
After a long day we turned in early, get this I was in bed and asleep before 10 PM! This never happens!
Sunday Half Marathon Race Day
Again my alarm went off at 5 AM, I got ready and Valerie was kind enough to let me catch a ride with them to the start. It was still cold, 39 degrees according to my watch and with it expecting to warm up fast I wore fewer clothes than yesterday. We had a good 40 minutes before the start but half of that was spent in the porta potty line. We then found Jodi and Ricky took obligatory pre-race photos and at 7 AM sharp we were off!
With a very fresh PR from last week I knew I was just running for fun today. Early on I lost Jodi and Ricky at a stop and I knew they would catch up to me so I continued.
I've run several training runs down here so the course was very familiar to me. The water was nice and smooth early and I just knew I'd see a dolphin since they like to play early. I didn't but it kept me entertained looking After the second mile I bobbled around with paces of 10:07, 10:46, 10:28 and so on. There was no steadiness. I did look at my watch but I mostly went on feel and just ran. I did end up taking 3 GU's, walked through about 5 water stops and took 2 salt caps which kept me from cramping up.
My last mile was very warm and also my 2nd fastest. I felt like I was flying coming into the stadium for the finish on the ballfield.
Check out this picture I can't believe it looks like I'm striding out so! That is not the normal shuffle I'm usually sporting.
The hubs and Valorie's husband and boys all went to eat breakfast and they all were there waiting for us to finish. Valorie was first and I just before Jodi and Ricky.
We all enjoyed great food and drink. Core Power was a sponsor too and I really enjoyed their new Elite drink right after my race! Protein is always good immediately afterward in my book.
This post race party was more like what you see in bigger races. those LA folk sure know how to throw a party too! In fact, I was so impressed with this race until I went ahead and signed up for the Louisiana Half in January. I'll get a third medal the Beach to Bayou for completing both races! How sweet is that?
In Summary
I loved this race in my own home state! The expo had a decent amount of vendors. It was really well organized, started on time with plenty of aid stations with both waters, poweraid and most with porta potties and some with Honey Stinger fuel. You just can't beat the views of the ocean.
The finish is in the MGM Park on the baseball field. The after race activities were plentiful. Lots of food, drink, massages all make this race worth doing and FREE race pictures! That is always nice! The Mississippi Gulf coast is a thriving part of our State. There are lots of great places to eat along with casinos, even if you don't gamble at all, entertainers from all genres perform here. Que the commercial, Come see what Mississippi is all about and stay the weekend with us.
If you need a Mississippi race, I hope you'll consider this one.
Have you ever run a race in Mississippi? Which one or if you've done several which is your favorite?
Are my friends not the cutest in their antlers?

Hello everyone.
So you all know Sleepwalker is the next book coming out from me. This is the first book in the Branches of Emrys. If you read Entangled Darkness, you know a little bit about the group. If not, you won't be lost, everything will be explained in this book.
I can't wait for you to read about Nate and Savon. I originally wrote the story about eight to nine years ago, but never released it, obviously. It's been totally revamped and I love the story even more now. That story will be here Tuesday, May 16th.
After that, I'm releasing Blood Bound, sometime in July I believe. I'll be picking a release date soon, and setting up the preorder. I want to finish a little more first because it's due to my editor very soon. Keep an eye out for that.
Blood Bound is book 10 in Others of Edenton. This is Declan and Consuela's story. We'll see more Erik, some mages, and of course Declan's kids, Fallon and Devlin. And it sets up book 8 in Seattle. Just trust me on this.
After Blood Bound, it's a toss up. I'll probably decide while Blood Bound is with my editor. I have a few options. I need to get back to Gavin to write his story. I know I left him in a bad spot in Back Burn, but he will kick off the series Aftermath. Or I have a secret idea I've been kicking around that is contemporary, and will kick off the spin off series from Falling Star. I have a few ideas there. Or, I could go the action adventure romance route, and do another secret project. It will be more or less contemporary, but not quite. Then there's the second Branches of Emrys book, which is calling to me too. Man, I can't decide. So if you want to weigh in, comment, please. I love comments.
June 3rd, I'll be at the Seattle Readers and Writers event. I'm looking forward to seeing you all.
Okay, back to work I go. Oh, and I'll show you the covers for the Sleepwalker and Blood Bound. I promise, I'll get a date for Blood Bound to you soon.
Thank you for Reading
Brandy L Rivers

GPRS Enterprises Inc. of Hamilton / Toronto was recently contacted by a major construction company to conduct a utility locating scan in Kitchener, Ontario. The contactor needed to get started with excavation so that they could build a retaining wall. The construction of the wall was the first phase of a two-year project, and of course, the customer wanted to have the area scanned before they started any digging at the job-site.
GPRS is aware of the importance of diligent work, and we work hard to help contactors at projects like these. Our experienced Project Managers work to make sure that the dangerous and costly mistake of hitting a utility line does not happen for our customers. At this particular job, hitting a utility line would have likely slowed down the project. Also if a utility or major gas line would have been hit, of course, a large number of buildings and businesses near the job-site would be impacted as well. GPR and Radio-detection was used to give this customer peace of mind so that they could continue their work with confidence.
It was very clear to our customer that they needed to use GPR for the highest quality and the best results. GPRS ensured that the area was clear of any utilities or unknown lines that could have been a hazard within the construction zone. Paintings on the surface were provided for easy visibility. Additionally, a detailed sketch of the locations and depths of all of the utility lines was provided to the customer so that they would have a long term record of the scan.
Our customer was planning to remove an easement in order to build a retaining wall for the first phase of their 2-year project. However, it was critical that all of the utilities and unknown lines were accurately located. Private utility locating services with ground penetrating radar coupled with Ontario One Call and city plans insures that the location and depths of utilities can be determined prior to a construction project. With this detailed information, just as this customer did, you will be able to keep your job-site safe and on schedule.
If you are in need of, or would like a free quote for any of our underground utility locating services (private or public), such as utility locating, underground storage tank locating, soil boring clearance, or trench scanning in the Hamilton, London or Windsor area, please contact:
Adrian Atkins at (905) 531-1483 or at email@example.com.

Last Of A Breed Keeps The Rock 'N' Road Tradition Rolling
(ANYWHERE, North America) In the days before cheap air travel, luxury tour buses and corporate music, being a traveling entertainer was as much lifestyle as profession. For acclaimed recording artist Fred Eaglesmith and his Traveling Steam Show, life on the road is, simply, life. And that gritty, greasy and engagingly genuine approach has grown a fervent following that speaks of a different age.
Where vaudeville meets rock's adolescence, Eaglesmith stands with his unrelenting touring schedule and unwavering commitment to the show. "It's much more like the '20s or '30s," he explains. "We're staying out, not just for a weekend, the summer or 20 dates – we're out full-time. We sleep out in a park or a Walmart parking lot, burn used cooking oil in our bus, do our own mechanical work and live a different life."
The 18-day Chicago-to-Santa Monica 2012 Route 66 Tin Can Caravan planned for September, offers fans the chance to immerse themselves in the Fred Eaglesmith experience as the trek rambles from show to show, nightly campfires, impromptu jams and more. "It translates to the music," Eaglesmith says. "The audience feels something and they're excited to be part of something that isn't manipulated by the media. People want to buy our stuff and support what we do when the show is over. It's much the way rock and roll started out. It feels a little more religious."
The road, not to mention the rails, are central to Eaglesmith's pursuit of musical transcendence. How else to explain that an edgy and thoroughly modern recording artist and performer was recently inducted into the North American Railway Hall of Fame? "Rock and roll is supposed to be falling apart all the time, not going around in these big pornographic buses with murals down the side. We won't play big festivals anymore because they suck out our souls. They're shopping malls now where it's about buying cotton candy.
"I know some big guys in the business and ran into one the other day. And I thought, you live in LA and have millions of dollars, and I'm way happier than you. I had to put on rubber gloves this morning to fill my bus with a bunch of nasty waste vegetable oil and my life is better than yours.
Eaglesmith's embrace of the road is total and complete. "We're not kidding," he says. "This isn't about fame at all, even though it probably started out that way when I was a kid. But it's really just about being a hard-working rock and roll band in the way that existed back when there was still a fever around rock music. We may be all that's left. The last carriers of the rock and roll fever.
"Everybody is cynical, tired, beat-up and bored," he says of the fans he hopes to help escape. "Our brains are so full of left wing and right wing, so let's not do that. Let's be something new called rock and roll. It took me a long time to peel away the onion to the core of what this is, but once I did I realized it had been there all along. It's really simple."

Our homes are a place where we should feel safe. When it comes to seniors, this is especially important as mobility is limited. The concept of a universal home is gaining popularity for seniors, allowing them the flexibility to tailor them to their changing needs. A universal home is about creating a living space which accommodates all stages of life. This is an important topic in times of a constantly ageing society, especially now with the biggest generation ever, the baby-boomers, reaching senior status. Thus, a "Universal Home" will provide space for the first part of life as a baby as well as that of a bachelor or bachelorette and the later years of life as an older couple that may not be as mobile.
There is currently one year of research being conducted in which ten architects will develop possible solutions for the design of a living space that grows with its inhabitants, remaining flexible and adapting to the respective situation. The American Association for Retired Persons, AARP, is a major advocate for this project. It will help seniors to live safely in their own homes and also saves money. Non-seniors are also becoming fans of this movement. Homebuilders, such as Universal Home builders, are winning awards because of this simple, yet often overlooked practice. There are many reasons why green, universal homes are wonderful options for people of all ages.
The homes are incredibly well-designed with a distinctive look. People with disabilities don't feel like they are settling for an ugly house anymore. Even people without limitations think that universal homes are better than conventional homes. We all want more comfort in our homes. Some tasks are inevitable, no matter what age and people are living longer than they used to. The traditional home that serves you well when you are healthy isn't always ideal for long reaches, steps and long walks when you are older. Younger people want a home that will comfortably house them when they are sick or injured. People now realize that they need homes that will grow old with them. Most people do not want to move to a retirement home or village-type community simply because they have aged. Many individuals would prefer to stay in their own home.� This is possible as long as he or she has a home that allows for their changing bodies and lifestyle. EnviroCitizen.org believes that this is why universal design is ideal for homes.

Kiss of the turtle. Seychelles
It depends what you would like to do. Mahe is the main island and there are plenty of packages you can buy. You can go more exclusive on one of the other islands, the more remote and smaller the population, the more expensive it can be.
Or, you can sort of backpack it. It'll cost you a bit to get there, but if you hang out at the local joints, head to the market and what not, and don't dine out at the fancy places every evening, you can stretch your dollar and actually enjoy the fantastic locations instead.
I highly recommend hiking some of the free trails and see if you can get some deals on a charter from the yacht club to one of the inner islands.
You have plenty of options. You don't have to super rich to go and enjoy life there 🙂
Zapes December 11, 2016
Isn't that Anse Source d'Argent on La Digue? Beautiful place — worth the long trip. If you go, also look for the less traveled beach on the other side of the island, called Anse Cocos.
[edit for spelling]
DonnieHeinlein November 30, 2016
Id go there if it didnt cost so much from where I am.
Iaor November 28, 2016
Are the Seychelles a safe place for Americans to vacation? I know that area has recently been prone to piracy.
hobbyrobie186 November 25, 2016
This is like the exact locale in KotOR, when you crash land on that tropical planet.

Reminds me of that island towards the end of Star Wars KOTR.

>if traveling from east coast its not that much further than hawaii either and to get to good spots on hawaii it takes alot of traveling…
1. Leaving from New York City, traveling to the Seychelles is [60% further](http://www.gcmap.com/mapui?P=SEZ-JFK-HNL) than Hawaii. And that isn't even taking into account that Hawaii is served by non-stop flights and the Saychelles are not.
1. *a lot

This reminds me of the first level of Crash Bandicoot when you're on the beach in the first game.
UrsulaNeel August 6, 2016
Not to be ridiculously pedantic, but there are a lot of places with that erosion (I lived there for a bit). Haha was that taken on sunset beach by any chance?? Yeah a lot of the outer islands are inaccessible by boat, e.g. Alphonse, so you have to go in by turbo prop.
Oslt July 16, 2016
If I remember correctly those whale things on the rock eventually slip into the water and swim out to the ocean.

This post has none.
I am disappointed.

This is reddit, you can't post beautiful photos with either dimension larger than 1000. Also converting videos to tiny gifs with 3x file size is encouraged.
Hinoldo July 9, 2016
I hated that place. Maybe my experience was different but, here we go. Every person on the island was inbred, the food wasn't any good, they wouldn't take their own currency and the exchange rate was whatever they decided it was that day. That sums up my Seychelles experience.
TyroneVautour June 27, 2016
I miss eating at the Anchor cafe and watching the sun set. Such a beautiful island.

walters1981 June 20, 2016
Sorry for the confusion. You do not need to overnight on La Digue as there are day trips ferries from Mahé and Praslin. However, the two best beaches are on different parts of the island and it would be pushing it to see both before the last ferry departs.
Time flies when you are having fun. Also, the only way to get around the island is to walk or rent a bike. As with any tropical paradise, it's hot and you'll feel more like napping on the beach or paying in the waves than riding your bike across the island to see the other great set of beaches.
My recommendation would be to plan on spending 2 or more days on La Digue. It's worth it.
Daros June 8, 2016
FINALLY! A USE FOR THIS GIF! http://s1310.hizliresim.com/1g/5/t9lb3.gif

If I may suggest, look up the Baths, Brittish Virgin Island, very similar, a lot closer if coming from the US, more infrastructure.
Kimny June 3, 2016
i hate that this place is being talked about so much it was defiantly, number one on my list of places to hide from international authority, and become a warlord.

CristineLacomb April 26, 2016
Yeah, I went to an island there owned by some British guy who adopted stray dogs from india, and the cool thing was the dogs roamed the island, wasn't that big, and interacted with the tourists and stuff. And the best part is that he had those huge tortoises and we got to sit on them etc. was fun!! you should def. go there.
AdalbertoHumes April 23, 2016
I can practically smell the sea and hear the waves.

My upcoming video game is set on this island, the beauty of the island inspired my game. Check out tough turtles on facebook, it's coming to iOS and Android in 2014.

Lavonne1 March 25, 2016
I'm so jealous! When I was younger I was absolutely obsessed with tortoises and had this VHS recording of a documentary about Seychelles that I would watch ALL the time. It's on my bucket list for sure, it seems incredible.
Ongha March 24, 2016
This is going to sound so weird, but I think I've sat in the same spot as where this picture was taken.

DomingaRico March 4, 2016
My first thought on seeing this was "crysis 4!!"
On a side note, I hope they return to the series' roots with a beautiful island like this. Part of why I loved farcry so much was the locale being so exotic.
DomingaRico February 26, 2016
seychelles are amazing. If anyone ever meets a rasta named angelo, tell him hi from marika
RebeckaGuyton February 18, 2016
What does the title, "kiss of the turtle" mean? is that in reference to the rock formations?

Been to this exact spot! On deployment actually. The US Navy visits it sometimes. They maintain a UAV base there I believe. It's a hotspot for pirates.

Well, I won the tickets from my club. however I can tell you that seychelles wasn't that expensive. And I stayed at the Equator hotel, this wan;t part of the prize, and It wasn't that bad, it included all meals.
ucid January 13, 2016
My whole family is from the Seychelles, but my parents moved to England a few years before they had me. I'll be going there for the first time next December.
Rac January 6, 2016
yeah my friend lives there. I am so jealous. And all he does is rub it in by sending me pics like this all of the time.
Emn January 5, 2016
I came with the Navy, we all had cash machines onboard so we'd get cash before we left and then go to the money changers to get rupees. Then we'd go to eat or purchase something and they'd only want to take dollars. And all we had was rupees.
Also, you could go to the bank and they would give you an exchange rate of about 12 to one but the guy in the alley behind the bank would give you 18 to one.
Nyest January 4, 2016

plenty of shells in seyschelles on the seyschelle shore.. lol
EviaBruss November 26, 2015
Fake.. no such place exists on THIS planet. Especially with that amount of beauty.
AlexTibbs November 25, 2015
I think the photo was taken just East of North Point. The waves were huge so there was no beach to be seen but if I had to guess it was at [Anse Machabee](https://www.google.com/maps?t=m&q=anse+machabee&output=classic).
I edited my erosion comment to defer to a local's knowledge. Thanks.
What did you do for work when you lived there?
Zapes November 22, 2015
Yes, the rock outcroppings are on all of the granite islands. Here's one of my OC [photo of them on Mahé](http://i.imgur.com/amZmw.jpg?1). ~~Only La Digue has the billowing erosion patterns shown in the OP's image.~~
I was only there for a week so I didn't have time to explore off of the big 3. If I ever move back to Europe I'll be sure to return to explore. It is my understanding that some of the islands are 100% surrounded by a reef, thus making access by boat impossible.
*I stand corrected by a local source.
dorothywarkocz5 November 18, 2015
Orpsam November 14, 2015
The rock on the bottom left has a red spot that looks like a persons face.
EunaCalifano November 2, 2015
I may be misunderstanding the post but why do you have to stay overnight to see the best beaches at La Digue? Do you have to stay overnight on that island?
Lordnys October 4, 2015
Very Nice. Reminds me of Kissing Camels
Brivestas October 2, 2015
if you don't mind my asking – how much did it cost you to go? Wife and I are planning our honeymoon and this is on the list!

Question about Sunbeam 6385 Coffee Maker
My coffee maker has been working just fine...until this morning. It started brewing and then just stopped. I wiggled things and cleaned the machine. It's just a basic little coffee pot. No bells, no whistles. Even if I try to just run water through it, with no filter or anything, it will stop and start brewing as it sees fit, taking hours to go through a full 10 cups of water.
Posted by amanda_goodw on
I removed the manual from the box as soon as I received the coffee maker, but wasn't able to think about setting it up in my teensy galley kitchen in my apt. until this week (due to many family problems, a surgery and I was ill for an extended period. I finally got around to clearing a suitable space for my K10, and cannot remember where I placed the manual (I'm almost 80-yrs-old). I think I am supposed to run some vinegar through it before making my 1st cup of coffee, but I don't remember anything else. I have been stocking up on the K-cups, and am anxious to use the machine, but I don't want to get started without reading the instructions.
My Mr Coffee Keurig (Model BVMC-KG5R) will not dispense after brewing. I have emptied the water and refilled. It still will not dispense. What should I do?
broke the brew head while trying to find out why the brewer stopped working
After brewing,no matter what size cup is brewed,all 3 size lights keeps flashing and brewer continues to run
SOURCE: I have freestanding Series 8 dishwasher. Lately during the filling cycle water hammer is occurring. How can this be resolved

Fresh Jungle Kayle Guide For S
Kayle Build
Jungle Role
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.

0 Resolve
Threats to Kayle with this build
Hey Guys I am Malkavian and this is my Fresh Jungle Guide For Kayle. If you wanna learn jungle route and item order please watch videos here. IF you like them you can stay here and read the rest of the guide.
Season 7 Best Jungle Route
RED: 9x Attack Speed
BLUE: 9x Ability Power or 9x Scaling Ability Power or 9x Magic Resist (If enemy has more than 2 ap champions)
YELLOW: 9x Armor or 9x Scaling Armor
Q: 3x Ability Power or 3x Attack Speed (if you are gonna build AD heavy)
Masteries are for building up damage. Kayle's best feature is build up damage. First you gotta attack enemies until you get half health and when they focus you, you gotta pop up ulti and keep attacking.
Kayle is one of the most played champions. So every single player has an opinion about how to build him. My items may seem odd to you guys but try it along with the masteries and runes. You will notice the difference during the game. Always build to counter your opponents you cant buy same items in every game.
If enemy team has 2-3 Tanks buy Lord Dominik's Regards
If enemy team has heavy ap buy Maw of Malmortius
If enemy team builds heavy armor buy The Black Cleaver
If enemy team has many melee champions buy Ravenous Hydra
IF enemy dont have any ignite summoner spells buy Spirit Visage
If you feel like enemy focusing you alot buy Guardian Angel
Be wise and win the game easily. :)
Skill Sequence
Kayle's best feature is build up damage. First you gotta attack enemies until you get half health and when they focus you, you gotta pop up ulti and keep attacking.
Combo Should Be Like:
Q -> E -> aa,aa,aa, -> W -> aa,aa,aa -> R -> aa,aa,aa .... and repeat this until your enemy/enemmies die
Ranked Play
In Ranked gamplay if enemy has 2-3 melee champions that means you are useful in teamfights. So you gotta stack with team. Cause melee means they gotta engage close to each other and you have the biggest aoe build up damage.
If enemy dont have many melee champions and if you dont have any hyper carry adc split push is better with Kayle.
Pros / Cons
-Insane aoe damage (Even to tanks)
-Ulti makes huge difference in teamfights
-Good sustain and good split push
-Vulnerable to early counter jungle
-Weak in early game / Needs alot of farm.
Creeping / Jungling
I am gonna add a Full Kayle Jungle Gameplay in 3 days. Stay Tuned...
Terms you might see while reading my guide:
AS: Attack Speed
AD: Attack Damage
AP: Ability Power
MS: Movement Speed
MR: Magic Resist
AR: Armor (Easy one)
aa: Auto Attack
SS: Skillshot
TF: Teamfight
TP: Teleport
CJ: Counter Jungle
This guide is for jungling. First of all you have 2 choice to begin with. Blue side or Red Side. Each side has several benefits so I will try to explain as much as I can.
1- Blue Side Start: Route should be Blue Buff->Gromp->Wolves->Gank mid/top -> If you have enough HP go get red (if your enemy has a jungler who can steal your red)
Benefits: This route is the best route for no aoe or sustain champions. It keeps your hp in a good level so you can go to your red side jungle too.
Down Sides: Only down side is if enemy has a counter jungler they can steal your red buff. Also Red side gives more experience but nowadays it is hard to start from red side.
2- Red Side Start: I personally don't try to start from red side no matter what.
Route: Red Buff->Krugs->Birds->Crab->Gank mid or bot, If you have enough Hp go ahead and clear Blue side too since it is way easier than red side.
Benefits: With this route you get by far the best experience. You can even be lvl 3 in 3-4 mins. Great route for 3 lvl gankers like Shaco,Xin Zhao, Lee Sin etc.
Down Sides: This route have many mob spawns and if you dont have any aoe skills it is really hard to do it. It is time consuming but great on gaining exp.
How to be a Better Jungler:
As a jungler your most important job is being awere of map! Means you gotta keep track of enemy cooldowns (flash/ulti/TP) You gotta know when Dragon/Baron Spawns ( Easy with new patch you always see the cooldown but you gotta remind your teammates when Dragon or Baron will spawn cause they are busy with dealing farming/enemy harrass/ jungler ganks)
Always ping as soon as you decided to gank a lane. If you pinged a lane to gank dont try to abandon it unless you see a good opportunitiy.
Always buy pink ward and place it between top and mid. (yes that is your job!) So your top and mid laner might save themselves from 1-2 enemy jungler ganks which is good for you. Enemy jungler will lose time and buy sweeper (if you want to Counter Jungle) Always try to smite Birds for the vision buff and clear the wards around the map
Always choose a jungle path which gives you gank opportunities faster. For example: If you feel like enemy top laner will push ( Riven, Irelia, Vlad always pushes lanes :) ) then start with wolves go for gromp then take blue and you can good to gank top lane when it is pushed. But if you start gromp then go blue then you try to kill wolves you lose time to walk back to top lane.
Be efficient with you time. Do not waste time walking mid lane if your mid lane is pushed. Go farm mobs when all lanes are pushed. Also ganking top lane is always tricky after lvl 6 , DO not camp top unless you see neemy jungler close to their top lane, cause if you camp top enemy jungler can easily take drag.
Try to help lanes that has disadvantage in lane (Irelia vs Ryze/Vlad) ranged vs melee match ups are tough. So help your poor Irelia :) Dont forget that your team as strong as your weakest lane.
The End
Hope you like this guide. Have fun on your games.
Edit: Gonna add Kayle Jungle Full Gameplay soon. Been busy with other guides lately. Played a game we won but it doesnt reflect the true power of Kayle. So gonna play 1 more and make a montage soon.
Update Notes:
-Added Kayle Jungle Gameplay Video

Which? is issuing all banks and building societies with an ASBO – an Anti-Social Banking Order – for raking in billions in unauthorised overdraft charges.
We have also launched a campaign to help consumers win their money back and asked the Financial Services Authority (FSA) to investigate whether banks are acting unfairly.
Doug Taylor, Personal Finance Campaigner at Which?, said: 'These charges are nothing but an easy money-spinner for the banks. In 2004 we found that consumers paid a whopping GBP 3 billion in charges for going into unauthorised overdraft.
'We think charges should be fair and reflect the costs involved. They should not be, as they are now, an arbitrary figure picked to make the most money out of unsuspecting customers. So, we are calling on banks to come clean about their charging structures and open their books to scrutiny.'
Challenge the banks
Which? has produced a complete set of web resources to help consumers win their money back. Our banking charges site includes:
- Information on why the charges may be unenforceable in law
- A factsheet on how to use the small claims court to gain redress
- Template letters to challenge the banks
Doug Taylor added: 'Banks and building societies have been hiding behind unacceptable excuses for too long. It simply cannot cost up to GBP 35 to send a letter so we have today written to the Financial Services Authority, asking them to investigate whether the banking sector is acting unfairly.'
If you are going to challenge bank charges, remember that you can take your bank to the small claims court for any overdraft charges they have made in the last six years.
If you have not kept statements you will need to request details of these charges from your bank. We have produced a letter which you can download from our banking charges site and send to your bank.
Big companies like banks might test your staying power by ignoring your letters or taking as long as they can to respond to your small claims court claim, so be persistent.
Your bank may also attempt to put you off by threatening you with huge court costs (for their barristers, for example). However, if your claim is reasonable, it is highly unlikely that you will be charged so don't be put off.

Levon Helm Band
Central Park Summerstage
New York, New York
September 2, 2009
When people go to see their favorite bands live, they usually go for more than the music. Watching said band(s) in person lets the typical concert-goer connect with their idols. It allows one to look past the fancy staged music videos and into the musician's soul. It provides a small glimpse into the musician's thoughts, emotions, and even into some of their personality. The way they move, groove, walk, talk even dress can all enhance their performance on stage.
When it comes to watching Levon Helm and his band perform, you walk away with a feeling like you just watched one of your best friends play in your basement. Although his voice was sidelined due to sprained vocal chords, his smile said plenty. No one smiles more than this man when he is performing. Even at Helm's advanced age, he can still pound the skins with the best of them. When he isn't smiling he's usually kicking it into gear with one of his classic fills or letting the rest of his extremely talented band know when the next change is.
On tour now supporting his new critically acclaimed album Electric Dirt, Levon revisited classics such as "Tennessee Jed." The chorus was sung by the entire band (as well as the crowd) which includes his daughter Amy Helm (who like her father plays the mandolin, sings, and every once in a while played the drums,) Teresa Williams (guitar/vocals), her husband Larry Campbell (vocals/anything with strings….literally) and Brian Mitchell (piano/organ/accordian/vocals) rounded out the rest of the singers.
Dropping in Band classics like "The Shape I'm In" and "It Makes No Difference," the crowd was taken to that next level. Smiling away, Levon rolled through the set without missing a beat.
The definite highlight of his performance was the closer "The Weight." For this song Helm invited Black Crowes members Chris and Rich Robinson and Steve Gorman, who kept the beat strong. As everyone traded verses the crowd roared in appreciation.
Once the song was over hands were shaken and hugs given as the musicians said goodbye to their audience. Before Levon left the stage he was spotlighted and stood tall – waving, blowing kisses, and even bowing down to the crowd in order to show his appreciation to the only thing he can possibly love as much as playing music – his fans.

1875 · London
by Manning, Rev. Samuel
London: The Religious Tract Society, 1875. Hardcover. 200p., hardbound in quarter calf gilt-titled over featureless black boards, a custom job but merely utilitarian. Profuse b&w reproductions, only a couple of which might be original strikes (woodblock: see "Gypsy Musicians" at p.158 and "Young Woman of Valencia," p.191, the latter a Dore'). Casebinding holds textblock soundly but boards are very edgeworn, the presssed calf of spine is thoroughly scuffed although the utilitarian titling and rullings are intact and bright. Foxing greatly mars the endsheets and tissue-guards, while text, plates and vignettes are all good. (Inventory #: 207326)

Embrace & Transform
June 11, 2017
On June 4, we celebrated First Fruits Sunday of the Embrace & Transform Building Campaign. On Sunday, we collected $181,694 bringing our total received to date to $416,967. This total represents 18 percent of the total amount pledged.
Praise God from whom all blessings flow!
As of today, we have received 239 pledges totally $2,349,674. More pledges are coming in each week. We are so very close to our second goal of $2.5M. And in fact, it's never too late to return a commitment card to the Embrace & Transform campaign. You can pick up a commitment card at the church or you can complete one online HERE.
The more we receive in pledges, the more we will realize our full potential in modernizing our facilities. If you have pledged, Thank You! If you haven't, don't miss out on being part of the unfolding work of God in the life of our congregation. Be part of the Embrace & Transform exciting story of God doing a new thing in the life of FUMC Allen.
Beyond the campaign, the building committee has selected Hill & Wilkinson as the general contractor for the process of value engineering. They will work with our architect, GFF, through the design development phase and construction documents to ensure we are getting the best value along with the most economical and feasible product. They will evaluate every detail of the building project to make sure it aligns with the vision. This process will take the much of the remainder of the year in hopes of breaking ground in the first part of 2018.
The first thing to be accomplished with the general contractor, architect, and our building committee is to make sure the current plans are aligned with our vision and expectations. Members of the "Alignment" subcommittee will soon meet with the other two entities. After this meeting, they'll hold a follow up meeting to make sure plans are aligned with the budget. After this, the architect will move forward with design development and creating the in-depth details of the building.
We have not yet set a date for the next Town Hall meeting, but be watching for an announcement. The Building Committee is anxious to provide the congregation with forthcoming details.
We'll also hold a Church Conference this fall to present the complete details of the building and the final budget for the congregation's approval. All of this is in anticipation of breaking ground in early 2018.

From you, we ask for continued prayers as we move forward in our building and planning process.
Praise Him above, ye heavenly host;
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
May 7, 2017
On Celebration Sunday, April 30, we experienced energizing worship throughout the morning inspired by the Chancel Choir, Resonate, Catalyst, and Project Praise. We were moved by an inspiring video and gathered in the gym following worship to dine on Fed by Faith's famous pulled pork. We enjoyed God's presence through our time of worship and fellowship together.
One of the highlights of the morning came during our worship services when we announced that 70 households had already offered three-year commitments totaling $1,511,760 to the capital campaign. The excitement of this milestone day in the life of our congregation captured the spirit and momentum that we are experiencing during this important season of ministry at FUMC Allen.
The majority of the congregation has yet to return commitment cards so we can only imagine the potential of our collective generosity for the Embrace & Transform Campaign. We are approaching our First Step goal of $2 million and our Challenge goal of $2.5 million. Our Celebration goal of $3 million in three-year commitments is within reach!
All who were in attendance on Celebration Sunday received commitment cards; some have already returned a card, but we've included cards in a mailing sent out on May 2 to ensure that every household has the opportunity to be a part of the success of the Embrace & Transform Campaign. Our Commitment Sunday worship services are Sunday, May 7, and every household will be invited to bring a card forward during worship on that day. If you are unable to attend on Sunday, you may click one of the links below to fill out an online commitment card or right click on the commitment card image to download and print.
Some of our faithful volunteers will be making some reminder contacts in the coming days to ensure that every active household in the church is encouraged to return a card prior to Announcement Sunday, May 21, when we celebrate during worship the Grand Total of all the commitments. We'll send these reminder emails during the days following Commitment Sunday.
Embrace & Transform is the name we've chosen for our capital campaign that will modernize our facility to strengthen our ministry in the congregation and community. We are fortunate people to be a part of this church at this time when we have the chance to do something truly lasting and impactful for First United Methodist Church of Allen. And great momentum has begun among the 25 households serving in leadership for our campaign.
People are excited and energized by the movement of God's Spirit. CAUTION: this enthusiasm is contagious!
On February 27, we mailed to FUMC Allen households a Vision Brochure detailing the purpose of the Embrace & Transform campaign. We ask all who receive it to read and study the material carefully because it should answer many of your questions. We address additional questions in our Town Hall FAQs.
This first mailing also includes two key tags with our campaign logo and a simple prayer:
Lord, What Do You Want To Do Through Me?
We ask you to place this tag on a key ring or another prominent place as a daily reminder to seek God's guidance regarding your participation in the campaign in the coming days. If we all seek, discover, and then act according to the direction of the Spirit, something truly extraordinary will happen!
The days ahead are some of the most critical in the history of our church. Join us as we come together in prayer and respond in such a way that we will see the hand of God in our work.
It's about embracing ministry.
- Embrace our vision.
- Embrace our commitment of our time, talent, gifts, service, and witness.
- Embrace all people and all generations.
- Embrace missions.
- Embrace the Spirit to lead us.
It's an opportunity for God to transform us individually and as a congregation.
- Transform us to strengthen our faith.
- Transform us to be an inviting church with radical hospitality.
- Transform us to reach others in our community and be impactful in their lives.

Myler pens new Saints deal
Fly-half Stephen Myler has signed a new contract with Aviva Premiership club Northampton.
Saints announced that the 28-year-old had agreed terms "for the foreseeable future".
And it comes amid speculation that Myler's fellow Saints fly-half, Ryan Lamb, is set for a move to their east midlands rivals Leicester next season.
Myler has been at Franklin's Gardens for six-and-a-half years, moving to union from rugby league.
He has scored 1,427 points during that time to lie third on the club's all-time points chart behind Paul Grayson and Roger Hosen.
"When I first came here from league I wasn't sure how long I would last in union, but I've thoroughly enjoyed my time," Myler said.
"We have been gradually building momentum over the past few seasons, and obviously winning the (European) Challenge Cup and LV= Cup stand out as highlights of my career.
"The (2011) Heineken Cup final was another step forward, and it showed just how far the club had come in a short space of time and what we are capable of.
"We've fallen short a couple of times, but the fact that we are now competing in those Premiership semi-finals year on year is an indication of how much expectations have risen."
