Problems and emergency contact information
In the case of a genuine crisis or emergency, Intrepid's Ecuador Operations Office can be reached on:
While we always endeavor to provide the best possible holiday experience, due to the nature of travel and the areas we visit sometimes things can and do go wrong. Should any issue occur while you are on your trip, it is imperative that you discuss this with your group leader or our local representative straight away so that they can do their best to rectify the problem and save any potential negative impact on the rest of your trip.
We recognize that there may be times when your group leader/local partner may not be able to resolve a situation to your satisfaction - if this is the case, please ask the leader to speak to their direct manager.
You may also choose to provide details in your online feedback, which we ask you to complete within 30 days of the end of your trip. But we do ask you to be aware that it is very difficult for us to provide any practical help after the trip is complete.

Essential Trip Information
Important notes
Please note that these trips are for adults and children traveling together and there must be at least one child under 18 with you.
Age restrictions apply to this trip: minimum age 5.
A discount of 10% applies on this trip to children 11 or younger at the time of travel.
Medical and health information
All Intrepid travelers need to be in good physical health in order to participate fully on this trip. When selecting your trip please make sure you have read through the itinerary carefully and assess your ability to cope with our style of travel. Please note that if, in the opinion of our group leader or local guide, any traveler is unable to complete the itinerary without undue risk to themselves and/or the rest of the group, Intrepid Travel reserves the right to exclude them from all or part of a trip without refund.
You should consult your doctor for up-to-date medical travel information or for any necessary vaccinations and anti-malarial requirements before departure. We recommend that you carry a first aid kit as well as any personal medical requirements (including a spare pair of glasses) as they may not easily be obtained at the locations on this trip. For legal reasons our leaders and guides are prohibited from administering any type of drugs including headache tablets and antibiotics. Please ensure that you are adequately prepared.
As a rule we recommend you don't drink tap water, even in hotels, as it contains much higher levels of different minerals than the water you may have at home. For local people this is not a problem as their bodies are used to this and can cope, but for visitors drinking the tap water can result in illness. Generally this isn't serious, an upset stomach being the only symptom, but it's enough to spoil a day or two of your holiday. Bottled water is widely available and your leader can recommend safe alternatives when available. Water consumption should be about three liters a day. Re-hydration salts, motion sickness tablets, and diarrhea blockers are available from many pharmacies.
Parts of your trip go above 2800 meters / 9200 feet where it is common for travelers to experience some adverse health effects due to the altitude - regardless of your age, gender and fitness. It even happened to Sir Edmund Hillary!
Before your trip:
Some pre-existing medical conditions are known to severely worsen at high altitude and be difficult to adequately treat on the ground, leading to more serious consequences. It is imperative that you discuss your pre-existing medical condition/s with your doctor. We understand certain medications are reported to aid acclimatizing to high altitude. Please discuss these options with your doctor.
During your trip.
While our leaders have basic first aid training and are aware of the closest medical facilities, it is very important that you are aware of the cause and effects of traveling at altitude, monitor your health and seek assistance accordingly.
Please read the following document carefully and, during your trip, utilize the table on the back daily to record your own perspective of your general health and any symptoms you may experience:
Hotel (7 nights)
The style of accommodation indicated in the day-to-day itinerary is a guideline. On rare occasions, alternative arrangements may need to be made due to the lack of availability of rooms in your selected accommodation. A similar standard of accommodation will be used in these instances.
Throughout the trip we request that our hotels prepare rooms in time for your arrival, especially if you're arriving prior to normal check-in time. However this isn't always possible, which means you won't be able to check-in immediately on arrival at some hotels. Instead, you can store your luggage and explore the new destination.
If you've purchased pre-trip or post-trip accommodation (if available), you may be required to change rooms from your trip accommodation for these extra nights.
Boat, Minibus, Plane, Speed boat
Money matters
The official currency of Ecuador is the US dollar (USD).
Please note that in Ecuador automatic money machines often limit the amount you can withdraw. This can be $100 or $200 per day depending on your card.
When it comes to spending money on the trip, every traveler is a little different. You know your spending habits better than we do, so please budget a sensible amount for things like meals not included, drinks, shopping, optional activities and laundry. It's always better to bring a little more than you think you'll need. Also make sure you've read your trip details thoroughly so you know what's included in the trip price and what isn't. This should make budgeting a little easier. You'll find this info in the Inclusions section of your Essential Trip Information (that's this document).
If you are happy with the services providing a tip - though not compulsory - is appropriate. While it may not be customary to you, it is of great significance to the people who will take care of you during your travels, inspires excellent service, and is an entrenched feature of the tourism industry across many Intrepid destinations. We recommend that any tips are given to the intended recipient by a member of your group, rather than collected and passed on by the group leader.
The following amounts are based on local considerations and feedback from our past travelers:
Restaurants: Please check the bill and if there's an addition of 10% service charge, there's no requirement for tipping. Otherwise, 10% of the total bill amount is appropriate.
At local markets and basic restaurants: Leave the loose change.
Local guides: Throughout your trip you may at times have a local guide in addition to your leader. We suggest US$1 per person, per day for local guides.
Your crew (including the leader and driver, and perhaps cook depending on your trip): You may also consider tipping your crew for outstanding service throughout your trip. The amount is entirely a personal preference; however as a guideline US$2-3 per person, per day can be used. Of course you are free to tip more or less as you see fit, depending on your perception of service quality and the length of your trip. Remember, a tip is not compulsory and should only be given when you receive excellent service.
Galapagos - Land based itineraries
Though part of Ecuador, the economy in the Galapagos Islands is different to that of the mainland, which is generally reflected in higher costs of living. As such, a tipping guideline in the Galapagos Islands is of USD 1-3 per person per day for the crew and USD 5-8 per person per day for your Galapagos leader.
Budget for meals not included: 180.00
We try to plan for every eventuality, but there are still some things beyond our control. Please make sure you have access to an extra US$500 for emergencies (e.g. severe weather, natural disasters, civil unrest) or other events that result in unavoidable changes to the itinerary (e.g. transport strikes or cancellations, airport closures). Sometimes these things necessitate last minute changes to enable our trips to continue to run, and as a result there may be some extra costs involved.
What you need to bring will vary according to the trip style you have chosen, the countries you are visiting and when you are travelling. Generally speaking you should pack as lightly as possible. On the vast majority of our trips you are expected to carry your own luggage, although you won't be required to walk long distances with it (max 30 minutes).
Many travelers carry their luggage in a backpack, although an overnight bag with a shoulder strap would suffice if you travel lightly. Smaller bags or backpacks with wheels are also convenient although we recommend your bag has carry straps. You'll also need a day pack/bag to carry water and a camera etc for day trips.
Below we have listed the essentials for this trip:
Climate and seasonal information
A Galapagos Transit Card fee of US$20 is payable on departure from Quito Airport (or whichever airport in Ecuador you are flying to the Galapagos from). The Galapagos park fee (US$100) and Isabela Port fee (US$5) are payable upon arrival to the islands (cash only). These amounts are in addition to your trip payment.
When booking, please ensure that your details are correct, and double check them on your documents prior to departure. If your passport does not match your booking details, you may be refused entrance to Galapagos National Park. Please make sure that your name is spelt correctly, and that you book using the name in your passport (particularly if you are recently married). If you are issued a new passport with a different number between the time that you book and the time you travel, please take both the old and new passports with you.
Group Leader
All Intrepid group trips are accompanied by one of our group leaders. The aim of the group leader is to take the hassle out of your travels and to help you have the best trip possible. Intrepid endeavors to provide the services of an experienced leader however, due to the seasonality of travel, rare situations may arise where your leader is new to a particular region or training other group leaders.
Your leader will provide information on the places you are travelling through, offer suggestions for things to do and see, recommend great local eating venues and introduce you to our local friends. While not being guides in the traditional sense you can expect them to have a broad general knowledge of the places visited on the trip, including historical, cultural, religious and social aspects. At Intrepid we aim to support local guides who have specialized knowledge of the regions we visit. If you were interested in delving deeper into the local culture at a specific site or location then your leader can recommend a local guide service in most of the main destinations of your trip.
Many national governments provide a regularly updated advice service on safety issues involved with international travel. We recommend that you check your government's advice for their latest travel information before departure and ensure that your travel insurance covers you for all areas your itinerary covers. Please refer to our website's safety page for links to major travel advisories and updates on safety issues affecting our trip.
We strongly recommend the use of a neck wallet or money belt while travelling, for the safe-keeping of your passport, air tickets, cash and other valuable items. Leave your valuable jewelery at home - you won't need it while travelling. Many of our hotels have safety deposit boxes, which is the most secure way of storing your valuables. A lock is recommended for securing your luggage.
Your leader will accompany you on all included activities, however during your trip you'll have some free time to pursue your own interests, relax and take it easy or explore at your leisure. While your leader will assist you with the available options in a given location, please note that any optional activities you undertake are not part of your Intrepid itinerary, and Intrepid makes no representations about the safety of the activity or the standard of the operators running them. Please use your own good judgement when selecting an activity in your free time. Please also note that your Leader has the authority to amend or cancel any part of the trip itinerary if it's deemed necessary due to safety concerns.
For more details on the type of conditions and safety standards you can expect on your trip, please refer to Intrepid's operational safety policy on our website. We recommend that you take a moment to read through this information before travelling, and would appreciate any feedback on how well it's being implemented in the field:

A couple of rules
Illegal drugs will not be tolerated on our trips. Possessing or using drugs not only contravenes the laws of the land, but also puts the rest of the group at risk. Smoking marijuana and opium is a part of local culture in some parts of the world but is not acceptable for Intrepid travelers. Intrepid's philosophy of travel is one of respect towards everyone we encounter and in particular, the local people who make our destinations such special places. The exploitation of prostitutes is completely contrary to this philosophy. Our group leader or local representative has the right to expel any member of the group if drugs are found in their possession or if they use prostitutes.
Everyone has the right to feel safe and secure on their trip. We don't tolerate any form of sexual harassment at Intrepid, either between passengers or involving our leaders or local operators. Sexual relationships (consensual or otherwise) between a leader and a passenger are unacceptable. If you ever feel another person is behaving inappropriately please inform us immediately by contacting the emergency contact number detailed in these trip notes.
Traveling on a group trip
On this Short Break Adventure the fellow travelers that may join you during activities can come from all corners of the world and likely a range of age groups too. We ask you to be understanding of their various needs and preferences - patience with your fellow travelers is sometimes required for the benefit of everyone's travel experience. If you are requested to be at a place at a certain time, ensure that you don't keep others waiting. We have found time and time again that the very best adventures we operate are those where the dynamics between travelers works well - this takes just a little effort on your part. Due to privacy reasons we are unable to provide you with contact details and any personal information about your fellow travelers booked on your Short Break Adventure prior to departure.
Travel Insurance
Travel insurance is compulsory for all our trips. We require that, at a minimum, you are covered for medical expenses including emergency repatriation. We strongly recommend that the policy also covers personal liability, cancellation, curtailment and loss of luggage and personal effects.
When traveling on a trip, you won't be permitted to join the trip until evidence of travel insurance and the insurance company's 24 hour emergency contact number has been seen by our local representative.
If you have credit card insurance our local representative will require details of the participating insurer/underwriter, the level of coverage, policy number and emergency contact telephone number rather than the bank's name and credit card details. Please contact your bank for these details prior to arriving in-country.
Please go to our website for links to various travel insurance providers:
Responsible Travel
We believe strongly in low impact or rather positive impact tourism. Broadly speaking this means that we try to minimize the negative aspects of tourism on the local cultures and environments that we visit and highlight the positive aspects. Please visit our website for further details and suggestions on how you can be a responsible traveler.
Latin Americans can be very conscious of appearance so try to be casual but conservative in your dress. Outside of beach areas halter tops and very short shorts should not be worn. When visiting churches or religious sites shoulders and knees should be covered.
The Intrepid Foundation
Since Intrepid Travel commenced operating in 1989 we've been committed to giving something back to the communities we visit. One way has been through our support for local humanitarian, development and conservation projects. Many of our travelers want to contribute something too. Whilst it is often tempting to give hand-outs to those less fortunate, this has the potential to promote a culture of begging and dependency. Handouts are not a sustainable way for individuals or communities to live. That's why we established The Intrepid Foundation – to make it easier for travelers wishing to give back to communities in an effective and meaningful way.
The Intrepid Foundation is a not-for-profit fund offering a selection of excellent grassroots organizations which you can contribute to. All donations to The Intrepid Foundation will be matched by Intrepid Travel dollar for dollar (up to AU$1,000 per donor and a total of AU$400,000 for all donors in each financial year, excluding emergency appeals). And every cent gets there as Intrepid Travel pays for all the administration costs. Donating is simple and secure. Please ask your leader for information on the projects we support through The Intrepid Foundation or go to our website:

Things aren't looking so rosy for Fisker Autmotive. The Anaheim-based, electric car manufacturer is in a bit of financial trouble, as it was recently forced to layoff a number of employees at its Delaware plant.
As you may remember, Fisker Automotive, headed by automobile designer Henrik Fisker, was one of the auto companies granted federal aid by the Obama Administration with a $529 million government loan, which it has since used to help develop its Fisker Karma electric sports car, among others.
ABC news has reported that the electric automaker was recently forced to layoff 26 of its employees at the very same location that CEO Henrik Fisker touted as the future manufacturing plant of a much more affordable electric car. The Fisker Karma starts at $102,000, a price far out of reach for the average American.
In response to news that Fisker would have to layoff more than two dozen employees, Roger Ormisher, a company spokesman told ABC news, "It's temporary…we're being prudent and sensible as a company."
Of course Fisker Automotive isn't the only company to receive federal aid towards development costs for electric vehicles and technology. As many may recall — GM, who began selling its Volts back in December 2010, were also recipients of government aid, in the amount of roughly $49.5 billion.
It hasn't been smooth sailing for Fisker, though. After initial deliveries of its electric sports car began in November 2011, Fisker was plagued with some bad karma of its own, and was forced to recall 239 Karmas, built from July 2011 through November 3, 2011, due to a risk of battery fire caused by coolant leak.
Due to its recent woes, Fisker is now seeking even more economic aid from the Department of Energy in an attempt to gather public funds as it looks to set its ship right.
What long term consequences Fisker Automotive may have to suffer remains unclear. While automotive hiccups are to be expected in new endeavors, given the infancy of the American electric car industry, Fisker should be able to recover. According to a company statement gathered by ABC news, as of today, Fisker has received $193 million in government funds.
Reports also suggest that the company was planning on using the majority of its funds towards a top-secret second generation electric vehicle at its Deleware plant. And that part of this top-secret project would consist of a more affordable electric car aimed at the average American, but unfortunately among those recently let go by the company were said to be involved in this heavily guarded project.
Whether Fisker Automotive will continue to draw federal loans, or is forced into making more layoffs, remains to be seen. But given the staunch criticism growing from those across party lines — in an election year no less — politics may play a key role in Fisker's future.

Gifted: Pippa Middleton was the star of the school's netball team
Fresh-faced and long-limbed,a young Pippa Middleton smiles proudly for the camera in the green kit of her school netball team.
The 13-year-old, already a star on the sports field, according to her former teachers at St Andrew's School in Berkshire – is shown sitting alongside her team-mates as they giggle and pose for the photograph.
Another previously unseen shot reveals the Duchess of Cambridge's sister in her smart school uniform, relaxing with friends in her housemaster's flat.
Sociable: Pippa, centre, and friends in their housemaster's flat
With her shoulder-length hair already tied in what looks like an early version of Kate's wedding demi-chignon, she looks like any other carefree schoolgirl .
The pictures were taken by Kevin Allford, who was housemaster to Pippa and Kate at the £13,000-a-year preparatory school in the Nineties.
Mr Allford, who now lives in Carmarthen, said: 'Pippa was like her sister and did everything at 100mph. They both loved sport, but Pippa was particularly talented.
SPORTY: Pippa, far right, with the school netball team
'She always smiled and was forever winning medals and trophies. The reason everyone thinks she's got a wonderful figure is because of the amount of time she's spent playing sport in her lifetime. With Pippa, it was hours and hours a day.'
Pippa, now 27, is two years younger than Kate, who had already left the school when these photo-graphs were taken.
The sisters were sent to the all-girls school as day pupils when they were eight. They stayed at St Andrew's until they were 13, ¬boarding for their final two years.
Runner: At 27, Pippa is still sporty and ran a triathlon last month
The girls were both known for their bright personalities and sporting talent but they did differ, according to Mr Allford.
'Pippa was tough, not like Catherine. She never seemed anything other than bright and ¬bubbly. If she fell down, she picked herself up and just got on with it.
'She knew exactly who she was and was a delight. There were never arguments with the other girls, never a piece of lost kit or grumbling.'

DELTONA (AP) - A central Florida man has been charged with poaching after his mother called authorities about a baby alligator he was keeping in her bathtub.
The Volusia County Sheriff's Office reports that 45-year-old Sean Lewis was arrested Monday. He was being held on $2,500 bail.
Lewis' mother told deputies that she had asked him to get the reptile out of the Deltona home. After several days, the woman got tired of waiting and called deputies to remove the animal.
The Daytona Beach News-Journal reports that the tub was set up like an aquarium, half-filled with water and a cinderblock in the middle for the small gator to lie on.
Lewis told investigators a friend dropped off the alligator and was supposed to come back for it but did not.

Cotton and peanuts have traditionally been among crop royalty in the South. Historically, if cotton is to be called king, surely peanuts would be the crown prince, but both are likely to face severe challenges for acreage in the upcoming 2013 planting season.
Continued high prices for grain crops, enforced by companies willing to pay Southeast growers premium prices for grain grown for livestock rations and for oil, continues to pique interest of growers.
The 10-fold increase in sorghum acreage in North Carolina from 2011 to 2012 is indicative of the interest growers are looking at higher paying, more sustainable crops than the two traditional crop leaders in the Southeast.
Few expect corn acreage to fall as demand remains strong and prices at more than double what they were three to four years ago.
Wheat acreage will likely reach record levels in the Upper Southeast in 2013. The combined impact of high grain prices will no doubt have a serious effect on cotton and peanut acreage in 2013. How big an effect probably won't be known until all spring crops are in the ground, but look for the king and prince to take a significant shot next spring.
Luray, S.C., grower Bud Bowers grows both crops. "This was the best crop of peanuts and cotton we've ever had on our farm," he says. He had dryland cotton that produced three bales per acre and dryland peanuts that produced nearly three tons to the acre.
"I'm grateful for the crops we grew this year, but I'm very concerned about the future of both cotton and peanuts, because of the pricing situation. It looks like we will grow more corn next year, but peanuts and cotton — I just don't know," he says.
Bowers story is not much different from cotton and peanut growers from north Florida to south Virginia. Most have one thing in common about future plans for cotton and peanuts — uncertainty.
Cotton is coming off a year of large acreage reductions across most of the Southeast and this year seems to be another in which grower confidence in cotton prices will cause further acreage losses.
At a recent meeting of the North Carolina Crop Consultants Association, a poll of consultants from North and South Carolina and Virginia seems to validate industry predictions for lower acreage.
In North Carolina, the largest of the cotton-producing states in the Upper Southeast, several consultants indicated an additional 10-20 percent drop in acreage is likely.
Acreage cuts
Combined with big acreage cuts in 2012, some cotton producing areas of the state will likely have a 50 to 60 percent cut in acreage over the two-year period.
In Georgia, the largest of the Lower Southeast cotton-producing states, acreage is expected to tumble by another 20 percent or so, according to University of Georgia economists.
High yields, and in some areas record high yields, did little to impact cotton carryover, despite significant acreage reductions in 2012.
Worldwide, the news isn't much brighter, though there remains a good demand for cotton, which will help keep prices somewhat stable, despite an over-supply of worldwide.
Darren Hudson, director of Texas Tech's Cotton Economics Research Institute, says demand for cotton is expected to increase by about 1.9 percent per year for the next 10 years. Over that period of time textile mill use of cotton is expected to increase by about 31 million bales.
The big challenge is going to be what to do with all that cotton. For the first time in nearly 10 years stocks were higher than use in 2012. And, world cotton stocks are expected to jump another 11 million bales in 2013.
China is the biggest player in the cotton export market and the news is not good there. It's apparent China does not intend to be caught short on cotton and be forced to pay $1 per pound, much less the $2 per pound they paid just a few years back.
China is expected to have a carryover in 2012 of about 30 million bales. This surplus is expected to increase by another 8 million bales in 2013.
Worldwide, the surplus is 69 million bales, expected to increase to 80 million bales in 2013.
Longer-term the outlook is a bit brighter, according to recent reports from the International Cotton Advisory Committee.
After three consecutive years of increase, global stocks could contract by 6 percent from the record level of 16.6 million tons (76.24 million bales) forecast in July 2013, to 15.6 million tons (71.65 million bales) in July 2014.
Most of this reduction in stocks is expected to take place outside of China, the report projects.
The pricing instability of King Cotton couldn't have come at aworse time for Southeastern growers.
After years of struggling to over-come weed resistance, especially glyphosate-resistant Palmer amaranth, growers across the region seem to be catching up with weed problems and are rotating herbicide families and crops to minimize losses.
New varieties
New cotton varieties with especially high yield and quality potential are available. Even non-transgenic varieties with high yield potential are available.
In terms of high quality varietal selections, 2013 will likely go down in history as offering cotton growers the overall highest quality cotton varieties in history, almost certain within the past decade or so.
Seed companies and chemical companies have invested huge amounts of money bringing new varieties and new technology for crop protection to the market place.
In some cases the market for which they developed these products in the U.S. will be less than half the size it was a scant two years ago.
If cotton has been on a wild ride the past few years, peanuts have been on the front seat of the roller coaster, with prices going up and down seemingly every year.
Speaking at a recent Georgia Farm Bureau meeting, George Lovatt, of Lovatt and Rush Peanut Brokerage described the 2013 peanut market aptly, "ugly, ugly, ugly — not many happy thoughts."
Finding a way to cut back on acreage is not the peanut grower's only future problem. The industry recently received a stern warning from the FDA to find ways to reduce the risk of salmonella poisoning from peanut products.
Jenny Scott, senior advisor to the director of the Office of Food Safety at the Food and Drug Administration told National Peanut Council members the FDA has a high level of concern about continuing problems with peanut butter Salmonella contamination.
She reported that the FDA is making more frequent inspections of peanut processing facilities by both state and federal food regulatory agencies.
Scott says, the agency is making greater use of environmental sampling and FDA officials are experiencing a greater willingness to use the full range of agency enforcement powers including warning letters, injunctions, suspension of registration and criminal prosecution.
When it comes to peanuts, Georgia drives the bus. If the outlook is bleak there, the rest of the peanut belt will be hard pressed to find any good news for the 2013 crop.
Like cotton, the timing of poor prices and oversupply for peanuts is bad.
Researchers across the region have made significant strides in peanut production and companies that in reality do consider peanuts to be 'peanuts' compared to other larger markets, have made significant progress in getting new products and new varieties into the marketplace.
Clearly, peanut growers are in a position to grow more acres of higher quality peanuts than at any time in history. The holdup is finding a place to sell their crop.
With limitations in crop insurance and major questions on government support, the risk for growing peanuts in 2013 will likely reach an all-time high.
Peanut marketing guru Tyron Spearman says peanut growers should plan to produce enough peanuts for a 5-6 month market.
Lovatt says the carryout is expected to be about 1.5 million tons, which is about 240 days worth of peanuts, which would take the market eight to nine months into the next marketing year.
Whether they need to produce half a crop or one-third of a crop will depend on a lot of things, but the bottom line is expect low prices as long as supply far exceeds demand.
The two peanut marketing specialists agree that growers should pay special attention to what shellers and buying points are saying. Cutting acreage is the easy answer, but not always a practical one for growers.
Cotton and peanuts are among the top rotational crops grown in many Southeastern states.
The pest spectrum above and below the soil is generally different, and historically cotton behind peanuts or vice-versa has produced some of the highest yields and highest quality crops of both.
Cutting back on peanut acreage and cotton acreage in the same season, for most growers means finding some other crop that will fit into the rotation — not usually an easy task.
With self-propelled peanut diggers pushing $300,000 and a new on-board, module building cotton picker twice that much, leaving equipment idle or under-used is another losing proposition for most growers.
Other grower options for getting peanut supply and demand back in order are not much easier, if any, than cutting acreage. Lovatt suggests reducing imports, which should be a no-brainer, but politically isn't so easy.
The best options for growers is for domestic demand to increase along with exports, both of which are being pushed to the max by state and national grower organizations.
Lovatt also suggests increasing crushing and limiting seed supply for the 2013 season.
If there is a bright side to the cotton and peanut outlook for 2013, it's that the U.S. has the most efficient infrastructure in the world for growing, processing and marketing both crops.
The level of technical expertise among growers has never been higher and demand for both crops remains good well into the future.

Does anyone agree that if you have proved that proposition X exits, or is real, do you also prove that not X is wrong, does not exist, unreal?
If you follow me, than my next question is: What can we prove (X), so that not X = no god?
For example, Einstein proved that gravity is due to the curvature of space, not a force that pulls as Newton said. So when Einstein proved the new definition of gravity, he also proved that Newton's idea was wrong.
For another example, Before there was evidence of the microwave background radiation, it was believed that the universe was a static universe (unchanging), but when the microwave background radiation was discovered, it prove that not only was the universe dynamic, but that it had a beginning as well, and in the process proved the static universe false.
So, again I ask, what could it be that we could prove exists, is real, that would also prove that there is no god?
Views: 316
I don't think your examples are quite the same thing. All they did was disprove earlier assertions about why things appeared as they do. Just as science has shown the epilepsy is not caused by witchcraft.
Newton didn't explain why gravity exists, he only showed how it worked -- how one could predict when and where objects would be in the sky based on mathematical formula. But he never explained why it worked as it did (as far as I understand all this).
General Relavity does better at explaining how it all works, but it doesn't explain why matter causes space-time to curve. Also, it only explains things, it doesn't prove things. We know gravity exists. We don't need to prove it. And you certainly can't prove it isn't true, either. Gen Rel is just a description of how it all works.
You can prove a testable hypotheses, such as the moon is not made of green cheese. But you cannot prove an untestable hypotheses, such as an eternal being that exists in all points in space and time. So, in my opinion, either way it's a moot point. You can't prove or disprove the existence of an eternal, all-powerful being.
You are 100% right about gravity, but you introduced a testable hypothesis that I would like to use to make my point. The hypothesis: the moon is not made of green cheese. Since we sent people to the moon and found it is made of rocks, it also proves that it is not made of green cheese.
What exists or can exist in our universe that if proven, also proves there is no god? Can there be such a discovery? Would the discovery of what happened before the big bang qualify?
Since we sent people to the moon and found it is made of rocks, it also proves that it is not made of green cheese.
Exactly. It was testable.
What exists or can exist in our universe that if proven, also proves there is no god? Can there be such a discovery?
No, nothing. There is no such discovery as I can see. You can't prove such things or disprove them. Just like we can't prove that infinity exists, though it is a safe assumption that it does.
I'm not sure we've ever be able to figure out what it was like before the big band. Not in this millenia anyhow.
Let's do an Archimedes: weigh the moon, dip it in water and weigh the displaced water. We will know how much rock and how much green cheese.
Does green cheese weigh more or less than bleu cheese?
Actually, we haven't proven the moon isn't made of cheese :).
We only scratched the surface to find rocks, but it's the *interior* of the moon that is made of green cheese.
Cane, the green cheese is under the surface rock!!! Maybe way under.
Let's do an Archimedes: weigh the moon, dip it in water and weigh the displaced water. We will know how much rock and how much green cheese.
Does green cheese weigh more or less than bleu cheese?
Hehehe. Very nice Tom. I don't think we'll know until we discover what makes the green cheese green.
That is a tough proposition. "God" is usually defined too broadly to propose a very specific phenomenon that would counter or negate the existence of a god. Theists always move the goalpost of the definition of god. They also argue that atheists are always arguing against the existence of a much too simplistic and narrowly-defined god.
I like your approach, but I think you would have propose an equally abstract idea as a counterweight to god. I would propose the notion of "evil". Natural evils such as small children dying of horrible diseases, natural disasters, etc. seem to negate the existence of a loving, caring, good creator. Man-made evils are also problematic for theists. They usually squirm out of this argument by saying man is a fallen being, etc.
Actually, it's possible to prove that a *certain* god is inexistant.
For example: Khepri, the egyptian dung beatle god, is proven to not exist. His sole purpose was to roll the sun across the sky. Proving that the sun isn't rolled by this god, proves his inexistance.
In my opinion, it is always possible to disprove something that is *defined*.
That's where everything goes wrong. Religions are not defined. Just like some virus, they constantly modify themselves to escape being disproved.
Christianism went from having a definite, old man with beard, all powerfull, living behind the sky God,
to a hippy, present in all people, in all items, in love, in music, in toast god.
The bible has been proven wrong time and time again. I don't think anything is left in it that could be relevent. Yet from being the absolute truth, it has become a book that we should all "interpret" and "choose" the parts that are good....
Choose!!!!! There was a time where people were burnt for choosing parts of the bible!!
So actually, god has already been disproven many many times. The problem only lies in stopping the religious from reinventing themselves over and over and over again.
If you want a way to annoy a friend or family member about their belief in god. Before trying to disprove their god, make sure you ask them to define him very clearly first. They probably get mad even before you try to disprove them ;).
even if we had undeniable proof, they would still say they believe.
And that is the problem right there!

And Now the Conclusion of The Spider Wreck Chronicles
Ok, I think yesterday's post was getting a little Wreck-less there, what with the cute dreadlocked spiders and all. Sorry. Here, this should help:
One smashed spider extraordinaire, coming up! Don't you just love those bloated little legs, the pimply red dots, and how they moved him after air-brushing the board? Oh, and just to mess with your sense of perspective: that red thing above the eyes is not another unibrow; it's his mouth.
I'll give you a moment to reorient yourself. (My ear hit my shoulder the first time, too.)
Now brace yourself, because next up is the most frightening Spider wreck I have ever seen.
Tell me that doesn't look like a demon-possessed Mr. Snuffleupagus from Sesame Street. Remember Snuffy?
That's truly terrifying, people. What next, a zombie Micky Mouse? Stop messing with my childhood icons!
Now, I'm told these cookie decorations are supposed to look like spiders on their webs:
But I'm pretty sure they're squashed ants on target boards. C'mon, four legs? How lazy are these decorators getting?
Of course, some err in the other direction:
That's 10 legs on the guy on the right. I'm also wondering if these spider puff balls are solid icing, 'cuz if they are then I couldn't think of a more appropriate inscription. Yeesh.
Thanks Caycee H., Shawn A., Kayla B., and Vanessa C.!

Hello lovelies!
I have had a very positive week and I am so excited to share some happy thoughts with you!
I've finally got back to a good yoga routine and found a class that suits me perfectly. This is really important and I would never feel comfortable doing a yoga class that would not fill this need. When I first started yoga a few years a go, I attended some classes at the gym I used to go to. It was not a good idea - these classes are way too crowded and the instructor has no way of controlling and supervising the whole class. Injuries can be common and I would not recommend these classes to anyone who is not very experienced with the practise. I am now attending a class with no more than 10 people and the practise is mid-energy hatha, which feels just perfect. I don't do yoga so much for the exercise as I do it for the spiritual practise and connectedness with my own body and mind. Yoga is so much more than just positions, you really need to give it your full focus and that's what I find so compelling about it.
On that note, I've also embarked on a 21-day meditation challenge! Please feel free to join me on this and report back on your successes - I would love to hear from you! I am committing to 20 minutes of guided meditation every day and the purpose of this 21-day challenge is to make meditation a daily habit. Hopefully this will help me get centred and find balance even during the busiest of times. Are you in??
Both of these practises, yoga and meditation, are filling in a huge gap in my life. For the longest time I've felt like something is missing - I eat healthy, I exercise daily, I get enough sleep, but still that final piece has been missing. I have found that yoga and meditation are finally connecting all the pieces together and making me feel whole. Is this something you can relate to?
This recipe was born out of a necessity for a high-energy breakfast. Autumn is in the air here in Sydney and the outdoor pool I go to every morning is clearly a few degrees cooler than a few weeks ago. After my morning swim my body is screaming for calories and a big bowl of muesli or oat meal is what keeps me going.
I love this toasted muesli and although the list of ingredients may seem daunting, I urge you to give it a go. If you only want to get small quantities of nuts, grains and seeds, I suggest you find your nearest co-op shop or any shop that sells loose dried goods. Bring your own container and just buy how ever much you may need! Many health food stores also sell small quantities of grains, cereal, nuts and seeds. In Sydney, Honest to Goodness is my favourite place to get everything I need.
I hope you too are feeling positive vibes in your life and keep spreading those feelings!

Old Dominion vs. George Mason Quotes
By ODU Athletics
Jan. 22, 2003
Old Dominion Head Coach Blaine Taylor:
"In recent history, beating George Mason was something that didn't happen often. And winning is something the players feel good about. "
"Tonight they made some runs at us and I think we handled that very well. I thought our guys took the court today with good confidence and energy."
On Isaiah Hunter:
"Isaiah really showed the team tonight. We never questioned Isaiah and everyday has not been a bowl of cherries, but its getting better. He did some great things on the court tonight besides shooting the ball. "
Old Dominion freshman guard Isaiah Hunter:
"I knew I had to step up tonight without John (Waller). Coach (Kenny) Gattison told me to calm down and let the game come to me and that's what I did. I've been feeling good about my shot all week during practice."
George Mason Head Coach Jim Larranaga:
"Without the five guards we started with at the beginning of the year, it's pretty hard to do what we want. Guard play affects everything. We did a little better job at the free throw line in the second half, but without guard play it has been very difficult."
"There are a lot of constant adjustments and we're playing with only half a deck."
"We can hardly practice. We just don't have the numbers to practice or prepare for each game. Its been rough on our guys."

As I've noted here earlier, the left is so worried about this trend that they launched pre-emptive warfare against the movie, and have continued their assault to a degree that I believe is unprecedented in film criticism. The barrage has been so over-the-top, so unrelenting, that anyone not familiar with Ayn Rand and her novel would rightly wonder, What in hell is going on? If the film, its ideas, the book that inspired it, and the author who wrote the novel, were truly as laughable and insignificant as the Culturati almost unanimously contend, why not just dismiss it and move on?
For instance, the major online leftist rallying point, "Huffington Post," simply cannot shut up about the movie, or Rand, or her books, and especially her ideas. The sneering commentary, mockery, insults, satires, and denunciations pouring forth from that site are relentless. How relentless? I decided to do a Web search on the terms "Atlas Shrugged Huffington Post." See for yourself. The list of linked commentaries and articles goes on and on, page after page.
For a film so supposedly ludicrous, an author so allegedly contemptible, a novel so purportedly laughable, and a philosophy so self-evidently ridiculous, Ms. Huffington's collective seems to be granting it all an amazing level of attention. Methinks the lady (and her minions) doth protest too much.
Tucked between all the punchlines, though, we find commentaries that reveal more clearly what is really going on here. The grandees of the Ruling Class are, frankly, scared. They're scared that Rand's ideas and overarching Narrative -- which constitute the antithesis of everything they represent and hold dear -- are catching on with millions of people. They know that, if this continues, it will pose a grave threat to their entire self-aggrandizing racket. That is why they tried so hard to kill the movie with ridicule, long before it was even released.
And that is also why they, and their intellectual apologists, are trying to drive philosophic wedges between Ayn Rand and her many fans. For instance, we find this supposedly "moderate" college professor instructing conservatives about why they should reject Rand:
But given today's uncertain economic climate and our highly polarized political culture, objectivism is no longer a fringe intellectual force in the Republican party. One can see its influence in the mainstream media and see it on the screens of American cinemas. It's also popular among members of Congress, namely Paul Ryan and Rand Paul.Of course, closet liberals, such as this professor, would love nothing better than for the Republican Party to continue on its philosophically anemic, "moderate" march to intellectual bankruptcy and political oblivion, by repudiating the free-market/limited-government agenda championed by Rand. They would love nothing better than for the GOP to continue to select standard-bearers like McCain/Bush/Dole/Snowe/Specter/Collins/Graham/etc. -- "moderates [who will] rise up to counter this intellectual poison." That would truncate boundaries of the political spectrum to conform to their own comfort zone, admitting only those who accept some variant of statist corporatism or welfare-state socialism. And that, in turn, would guarantee the enduring domination of our culture by the bipartisan Ruling Class.
The objectivist perversion of classical liberalism, and their slavish worship of Rand, is at odds with the American conservative tradition and it threatens its political center, and unless moderates rise up to counter this intellectual poison, intelligent conservative thought will continue to decline and GOP party leadership will continue its drift toward the far right.
What scares statists is that even influential religious conservatives -- such as Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Cal Thomas -- as well as a number of pragmatic neocons, like Fred Barnes -- have endorsed the "Atlas Shrugged" movie to their legions of fans and followers. Ayn Rand's name and slogans from her books frequently appear on signs and in speeches at Tea Party rallies. As the professor notes, Members of Congress and the judiciary (e.g., Justice Clarence Thomas and Chief Judge Alex Kozinski, of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit) also count themselves as fans of Rand's works.
All this is worrisome to leftists, of course. But it also worries "compassionate conservative" statists, such as Michael Gerson, a former George W. Bush speechwriter, who felt compelled to attack the film, its ideas, and their author. "Reaction to Rand," he says accurately, "draws a line in political theory":
Many libertarians trace their inspiration to Rand's novels, while sometimes distancing themselves from Objectivism. But both libertarians and Objectivists are moved by the mania of a single idea — a freedom indistinguishable from selfishness. This unbalanced emphasis on one element of political theory — at the expense of other public goals such as justice and equal opportunity — is the evidence of a rigid ideology. . . . Conservatives have been generally suspicious of all ideologies, preferring long practice and moral tradition to utopian schemes of left or right. And Rand is nothing if not utopian. In "Atlas Shrugged," she refers to her libertarian valley of the blessed as Atlantis. It is an attractive place, which does not exist, and those who seek it drown.But the Randian challenge goes well beyond politics. The film has also forced conservatives, especially religious ones, to wrestle with disquieting, even alarming, philosophical ideas. The Christian conservative Acton Institute, for example, responds with awkward ambivalence to the movie and to Rand's intellectual legacy. Another conservative Christian writer, Colleen Carroll Campbell -- like Michael Gerson, a former presidential speechwriter -- worries deeply about the growing influence of Rand on the right; in fact, she regards it as a "Battle for the Republican Soul":
Rand's resurgent popularity and the rising influence of radical libertarianism in the GOP do not bode well for a Republican party hoping to revive Reagan's big tent. Nor is respect for "the virtue of selfishness," as Rand called it, an adequate principle by which to govern a nation.Despite such misgivings, Rand's books are getting traction even deep within Christian circles. Let me close with the most amusing (to me) example to date: a feature article in the National Catholic Register, no less, titled -- believe it or not -- "What if the Church Went Galt?" It opens thus:
Tea Party activists who embrace Rand as the second coming of America's founding fathers forget that as realistic as our founders were about the dangers of intrusive government and the self-interest that motivates citizens, they also were convinced that a free society requires a vibrant moral and religious culture to sustain it. . . . Despite the fiscal focus that characterizes Tea Party gatherings, the movement includes many social conservatives who oppose abortion, embryonic research, euthanasia and the redefinition of marriage as a unisex institution. . . . Their belief in original sin makes them suspicious of the idea that our human condition can be perfected through the right government program or political ideology. . . . It's a sign of our narcissistic times that conservatives who see freedom and goodness as inextricably linked often are treated like skunks at the Grand Old Party, and in American public life in general. And it's all the more reason that Republicans eyeing the White House should spurn Rand's shrill exaltation of selfishness and turn to conservatism's deeper, more life-affirming roots to make their case for change.
In the famous novel Atlas Shrugged, the capitalists, maligned and put upon by the overreaching hand of government, all suddenly disappear so that the world would discover how much they really needed the capitalists. They called it "Going Galt" after the man named John Galt who initially vanished.When a writer in an official Catholic publication feels inspired to draw his metaphors and lessons from Ayn Rand's masterwork, you know that her influence is profound and growing.
Today, few groups are more maligned and put upon than Catholics both here in America and around the world. We've all heard it suggested that the world would be better off without the Catholic Church.
So this is my response. Not that it could ever happen but what if the Catholic Church went "Galt." What would happen to the world if the Catholic Church just stopped. Everything.
And that is why the Ruling Class establishment cannot bring itself to ignore her any longer. The sheer volume and intensity of their intemperate mockery gives the lie to their claims that her ideas aren't worth bothering about. They are bothered, all right -- as they should be -- about a looming philosophic menace to their shaky hold on our culture.

Visualization Wins Bubba The Untested Jacket
Bubba got sour the movement at the Masters and he said "I just got into the trees, adage a crazy crack in my managing director, and instantly I'm wearing the Na‹ve Jacket". As a result of goodness for his power to visualize.
There's also been talk recently here Ernie Els employing a visualization coach. The fait accompli is that to be capable to invent a shot you organize to primary be masterful to get it.
I sat in on a golf watch training hearing in a hinterlands lambaste a week or so shy away from and only of the questions asked at the end was "So, do the professionals in point of fact function this stuff?" I guess that sums up the normal amateur lodge golfers posture toward the mental side of golf. They don't absolutely get it.
If those golfers did dishearten it they would discover golf is a indubitably easier and more filling prey than that which they currently experience. The cognitive side is absolutely easygoing to learn, clear to mode and easy as can be to use. It is, in incident, a full lot easier than wisdom to swing a golf nightclub in an optimal ceremony and fashion the varied exceptional shots that convincing golf requires of us.
Visualization is a key part of before you can say 'jack robinson' no way creation. Visualization is leading in the erudition of the sway itself. You desideratum to look upon the discipline waving technique in your sense's partiality so as to be able to replicate it.
Visualization then comes into play the field pretend in the good old days again in the choosing of a shot. You entertain to see where you call for the ball to go. You have to receive where you lack it to land, the apex you want it to cut, the modus vivendi = 'lifestyle' the ball devise respond when it lands. Barely some time ago you have seen your projectile are you expert to prefer your billy and rehearsal the vital swing.
You commonly hear the usage "You get to see it to believe it". In golf, visualizing the instantaneously and groove apparently in your memory's discernment allows you to think it and then to indeed do it. Visualization in a nitid and faithful manner such as this thus allows you to fully give to your shot. And you separate what happens when you don't commit to your shot. If you hit your ball with an uncommitted poke it will treat it as a joke!
As a consequence visualization is the actual adeptness that underpins the cleverness to determine the as the crow flies sway, dream up the veracious pattern in full operation and commit to it. It is the establishment upon which perfect conviction is built.
Yes, I certain confidence also comes from knowing that you have the ability to put on the shot. You workout that on the range and in mode on the course. That's the grain that non-professional golfers are -off more seemly to do. But complete golf belief requires more that honest the ability to generate those shots. It requires crazy skill. It requires visualization.
Embracing the cerebral play of golf is what truly transforms your game. It's what sets you but for from the rest. It's what wins you your equal of the non-professional jacket in your neighbouring society

Nobel to OPCW on Twitter: Where are you guys?
When the Nobel Peace Prize committee couldn't reach the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons by phone, it turned to a newer means of communication: Twitter.
The committee tweeted twice on Friday morning, first with a message to OPCW to contact its office and then with a general that effectively said, "Are you out there?"
Twitter users found the interaction amusing and exasperating.
--@radhikajones: "Imagining current convo between @Nobelprize_org and @OPCW: Hey, follow me back so I can DM you."
--@misswilson "Life in 2013, everybody"
--M_C_Klein "Is this the way things are done now?"
--@DrDSchwartz "Who ordered a @dominos Pizza?"
Difficulty reaching winners by phone has been a pattern throughout this year's awarding of the Nobel prizes, including a delay reaching literature winner Alice Munro, a Canadian, as well as physics prize winner Peter Higgs, thought to be somewhere in Scotland.

From the Context Window, I would like to select a Fact Type, right-click, and 'Select on Diagram'.
This feature is available from the Model Brower and from a Page window for both Fact and Object types. It should not be terribly hard to implement .
Yes, it sounds easy, but it isn't trivial. There are several issues here:
So, I'm not disagreeing, but please trust me when I say it is harder than it looks due to both technical and design issues. If it were 10 minutes, I'd have done it ages ago because I'd like to have it too. -Matt

Just started to use my scanner for annual re-test and had just tested a 4way ext. lead, before scanning the PC next to it. I scanned the bar code and tester went to default sequence on the screen. Just about to press test, and looking at the test it was going to do and saw 25Amp current times 4 highlighted from the previous test.
It had accepted my new ID number for the PC but was going to test it as a 4way ext lead!
Thinking that I had tested the PC incorrectly last year I proceeded to re-test both items again, from new, with new lables, but the same thing happened. The scanner should set up all the tests for each individual items once you have done the initial test, should'nt it?
Any ideas please?

Slow Low Cooking, And The Poor Man's Sous Vide
Regina Schrambling in the LA Times, realizes what barbecue pit masters hold true and dear to their hearts: cooking meat slowly and at low temperatures "changes everything for the better -- the texture turns more tender, the flavor becomes more concentrated". Here's one chef's take on slow cooking at home:
Chef Govind Armstrong uses sous-vide at Table 8 in Los Angeles and Miami but has developed a technique for home cooks that requires no special equipment, let alone 18 hours of simmering. (Although low temperatures might be nervous-making, Armstrong points out that anything over 140 degrees is enough to head off bacteria.) He simply places shrimp or scallops in a zippered freezer bag with a little clarified butter, and poaches the contents slowly in warm water.
While regular poaching leaches flavor into the pot, his method traps the seafood juices inside the bag and concentrates them. You could consider it the poor man's sous-vide if the results were not so astonishing with such low-tech gear.
"This is the easiest way to approximate sous-vide," Armstrong says. "And the beauty of it is that you can reuse the butter to sauté fish or make an amazing hollandaise."
Schrambling includes a recipe for Armstrong's slow-cooked shrimp with instructions on his technique, as well as two more recipes for slow-cooked salmon and chipotle ribs, if you'd like to give what she talks about a good try yourself.

Abstract: The detection of over 3000 new exoplanets by the NASA Kepler mission has opened up the possibility to infer the occurrence rate of planets in the habitable zones of stars in our galaxy. However, both the characteristics of the detected planets and their occurrence rates crucially depend on our understanding of properties of the stars that were observed. In this talk I will present current efforts to improve our understanding of fundamental properties of Kepler target stars and their planets, in particular using the technique of asteroseismology. I will furthermore discuss the prospects of Kepler's follow-up mission, K2, for advancing our understanding of exoplanets and stellar astrophysics.

Three factors form the foundation of a successful ad campaign: Reach, resonance and reaction. Reach the right audience, and ensure your advertising resonates positively so you can generate the desired reaction. Simple–right? Wrong.
The advertising landscape is evolving at an extraordinary pace as media proliferation and technology advances create new ways of connecting with consumers. We watch videos on phones, stream music on laptops and read newspapers on tablets—sometimes all at once. Needing to reach, resonate with, and get a reaction from the right audience in a world of choice can make it difficult to decide where to allot one's advertising dollars.
While there isn't one simple rule for maximizing advertising effectiveness in such a saturated market, understanding how consumers feel about the ads served on the various media platforms they use every day is a good place to start.
The most credible advertising comes straight from the people we know and trust. For that reason, it should come as no surprise that more than eight-in-10 global respondents (83%) say they completely or somewhat trust the recommendations of friends and family. But trust isn't confined only to those in our inner circle, as two-thirds (66%) say they trust consumer opinions posted online—the third-most-trusted form of advertising.
"The power of digital ad formats cannot be underestimated, as they offer many advantages for achieving effective reach," said Randall Beard, president, Nielsen Expanded Verticals. "But few brands have mastered online word-of-mouth marketing techniques, the results of which can go viral very quickly. Passionate brand advocates can be powerful allies to amplify your message, but you need to give them a reason to talk. Evolve the relationship from a one-way sales pitch to a two-way conversation. And be transparent and accountable. Online brand advocates can quickly become adversaries with the power to damage credibility and reputation if things go wrong."
Owned (brand-managed) online channels are also among the most trusted advertising formats. In fact, branded websites are the second-most-trusted format, with 70% of global respondents saying they completely or somewhat trust these sites. In addition, more than half of respondents (56%) trust emails they signed up for.
Looking at two-year digital trends, trust in paid online and mobile ads has stayed relatively consistent since 2013. Almost half of global respondents say they completely or somewhat trust online videos ads (48%, no change from 2013), ads served in search engine results (47%, down one percentage point) and ads on social networks (46%, down two percentage points). About four-in-10 global respondents trust online banner ads (42%, no change) and mobile advertising (43%, down two percentage points). Just over one-third say they trust mobile text ads (36%, down one percentage point).
"Brands have been steadily increasing their digital ad spend as they get increasingly comfortable with digital advertising and measurement, but TV formats still deliver the highest unduplicated reach (i.e., the ad reaches each audience member only once) of 85%-90%," said Beard. "While digital ads can offer considerable benefits—such as precision-focused campaigns, in-flight adjustments and more creative options—moving from TV to an all-display digital plan is a bold move for any marketer. Consider a mix of both offline and online channels for the best ROI."
Despite continued media fragmentation, the proliferation of online formats has not eroded trust in traditional (offline) paid channels. TV, newspapers and magazines remain trusted advertising formats. More than six-in-10 global respondents say they completely or somewhat trust TV ads (63%), up one percentage point from 2013. Slightly fewer trust ads in newspapers (60%) and magazines (58%), which fell one and two percentage points, respectively, from two years ago.

The Nielsen Global Trust in Advertising Survey was conducted between Feb. 23 and March 13, 2015, and polled more than 30,000 consumers in 60 countries throughout Asia-Pacific, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, Africa and North America. The sample has quotas based on age and sex for each country based on its Internet users and is weighted to be representative of Internet consumers. It has a margin of error of ±0.6%. This Nielsen survey is based only on the behavior of respondents with online access. Internet penetration rates vary by country. Nielsen uses a minimum reporting standard of 60% Internet penetration or an online population of 10 million for survey inclusion. The Nielsen Global Survey, which includes the Global Consumer Confidence Index, was established in 2005.

Obama threatens veto over ski-area water rights
The Durango Herald
DENVER – A dispute between Colorado ski areas and the Forest Service has caught the attention of the White House, which on Thursday threatened to veto a water-rights bill that U.S. Rep. Scott Tipton, R-Cortez presented on the House floor Wednesday, March 12. Meanwhile in Denver, state senators delayed a vote on a related bill by Sen. Ellen Roberts, R-Durango, out of concerns that it improperly singles out the Forest Service.
The bills in Washington and Denver address an effort by the Forest Service to gain title to water rights used by ski resorts that lease federal land.
"This is important to the West. We hope the president won't politicize this because this isn't a Republican or Democrat issue," Tipton said in a phone interview.
Rep. Jared Polis, D-Boulder, is a co-sponsor of Tipton's bill, and a few other Western Democrats also support it.
The Forest Service has sought greater control of ski water rights since the 1980s. A federal judge in Denver overturned a previous agency policy that required ski areas to assign their water rights to the government in return for lease extensions. The agency plans to release a new policy for public review soon.

Venerable Sergius and Herman, Wonderworkers of Valaam - Troparion & Kontakion
Troparion — Tone 4
Fulfilling the Gospel of Christ and loving him alone, / Despising earthly cares you settled on an island. / There you fought against the invisible foe, / Subjecting your bodies to the Spirit by fasting, vigil and prayer. / Crowned with glory and now standing before the Trinity, / Pray, O Fathers Sergius and Herman, / That our souls may be saved!
Kontakion — Tone 4
You left the world to follow in Christ's footsteps, / Reaching Lake Neva and the island of Valaam. / There you lived the angelic life / And were translated to the heavenly bridal chamber. / As you stand with the angels remember the children whom you gathered, / That we may joyfully cry to you: / Rejoice, blessed Fathers Sergius and Herman!"

PA leader Shaath: Arafat saw that repeating the first Intifada... would put pressure on Israel
Narrator: "The Camp David Summit [in 2000] failed, and [US President Bill] Clinton held Arafat responsible for the failure. This was a prelude to very grave events: Ariel Sharon invaded the Noble Sanctuary of Jerusalem (i.e., the Temple Mount), and the Second Intifada, known as the Al-Aqsa Intifada, broke out on Sept. 28, 2000 as a direct response to this invasion. However, it was also an outburst against Israel's insistence over the years on suppressing the Palestinians and (speech unclear) their National Authority."
Nabil Shaath, member of the negotiating team: "[Arafat] saw that repeating the first Intifada in new forms, would bring the necessary popular, international, and Arab pressure upon Israel, because it was already impossible to continue denying our right in Jerusalem and the right of the refugees, which are the two main topics [of conflict]."
