The road to Meteora
14-Day cycling tour through the southwest of Macedonia and the north of Greece
Macedonia and the district of Macedonia in northern Greece are ideal for cyclists. Our carefully chosen route heads through some of the best scenery these fascinating countries have to offer, complimented with some really exciting cycling that equally challenges and rewards. Beautiful cycling areas with a rich culture and history, good roads, unspoiled nature and friendly people.
The routes
The routes are tarmac roads with little traffic. The terrain here means that for most rides you will encounter some hills and sometimes a long climb (maximum gradient of 8%). Maximum elevation: gain during a climb is 600 metres. We have a rest day in Kastoria in between the two hardest stages which are around 80 km with a few hills thrown in. The rest of the daily rides are in the region of 50-60 km.
Journey in brief
The first four days will take us through the southwestern part of Macedonia cycling along the beautiful crystal clear lakes of Ohrid and Prespa near the foothills of the Pelister National Park. On the third day you will spend the night in the 700-year-old monastery of Sveti Naum. Just before the Greek border we pass through the historical city of Bitola which during the Ottoman domination was a prominent Balkan commercial city.
The first night in Greece takes us to Florina located in the foothills of the Pelister Mountains. During the ride along Lake Vegoritis at Aghios Panteleimon you will cycle according to experts, through one of the four best wine regions of the world. You can visit one of the famous wine estates in the region, Alpha Estates. On the route towards Kastoria, you will pass several unspoiled lakes with rare species of birds.
During the rest day in Kastoria it's great to relax on the many boulevard terraces or visit the ancient town.
The route then continues south through sleepy villages to the old trading city of Grevena which is surrounded by rivers, waterfalls and ancient forests.
The last part of the journey heads south through the valley of the River Pinios to the town of Kalambaka, situated at the foot of Meteora. The giant rocks of Meteora are one of the most extraordinary rock formations in the world and also the highlight of this cycling holiday. These unique formations topped with ancient monasteries are a surreal spectacle.
The holiday ends with a visit to the Greek port city of Thessaloniki, Greece's second city, named after the sister of Alexander the Great. Thessaloniki has many historical monuments and museums.

Biofuel rush wiping out America's grasslands at fastest pace since the 1930s Dust Bowl – Rates of grassland loss are 'comparable to deforestation rates in Brazil, Malaysia, and Indonesia'Posted by Jim at Wednesday, February 20, 2013
By Brad Plumer
20 February 2013
(Washington Post) – America's prairies are shrinking. Spurred on by the rush for biofuels, farmers are digging up grasslands in the northern Plains to plant crops at the quickest pace since the 1930s. While that's been a boon for farmers, the upheaval could create unexpected problems.
A new study by Christopher Wright and Michael Wimberly of South Dakota State University finds that U.S. farmers converted more than 1.3 million acres of grassland into corn and soybean fields between 2006 and 2011, driven by high crop prices and biofuel mandates (right). In states like Iowa and South Dakota, some 5 percent of pasture is turning into cropland each year.
It's a big transformation in the heart of the country: The authors conclude that the rates of grassland loss are "comparable to deforestation rates in Brazil, Malaysia, and Indonesia." And those changes are already having plenty of impacts.
For one, farmers are now growing crops on increasingly marginal land. In Nebraska, North Dakota and South Dakota, corn and soy are planted in areas that are especially vulnerable to drought. But farmers take the risk because corn and soy have become so lucrative — and, in part, because the federal government offers subsidized crop insurance in case of failure. (The study also finds evidence that many farmers are no longer enticed by federal conservation programs that pay for grassland cover.)
The loss of pasture itself could also have big environmental impacts. Studies have found that grasslands hold carbon in their soil better than cropland does. So there's a climate-change angle here. A 2008 paper in Science argued that fuels like corn ethanol and soy biodiesel lose a portion of their carbon advantage over gasoline if farmers are simply digging up virgin grassland to grow the crops.

Again, why spend a lot of money on high-end lipstick when there are far more affordable alternatives everywhere? Red lipstick, especially–I mean, how often will you really wear red? Presenting NYC Ultra Moist Lipwear in Retro Red, very affordable at $0.99 without sacrificing product quality. Packaging's cheap, though, but that doesn't really matter to me.
Quite a number of people claim this is a dupe for MAC Russian Red. I don't have Russian Red, so you be the judge. This is warmer and a tad louder than Russian Red though, based on comparison photos. They say this is a true red, but that's not the case; it has a slightly orange undertone that shows up more in photos. This is how it looks on my arm:
And this is how it looks on my lips:
See? The orange undertone is more noticeable here. In person, though, it simply looks red. A loud, "hey, look at ME!!!" red. Perfect. Red is not for the subtle, after all.
I think this would suit women with warm undertones better, but it would look good on a wide variety of skin tones. This color makes my teeth look whiter, surprisingly, and it makes my skin look slightly paler.
The lipstick is opaque and creamy. I can apply it without anything but lip balm, but it would be best to line your lips or prep them with concealer beforehand. The creamy texture makes this more prone to bleeding.
Besides the crappy packaging, what I don't like is the fruity scent/taste. It's not overpowering, but it influences the taste of whatever you put in your mouth, and that makes it unpleasant.
One way to get the most use out of this is to use it as a stain. After all, full-on Retro Red is not really appropriate for daytime. To use it as a stain, just apply it, blot, and blend. For more subtle color, just dab the lipstick on and blend the color with your fingers. This is best done with a coat of lip balm underneath to facilitate blending.
You could also use this as a cream blush! It gives my cheeks a lovely, from-within color. Swipe once or twice on the back of a clean hand and blend onto cheeks little by little.
Imagine that: for a measly $0.99, you get a loud lipstick, a stain, and a cream blush. I highly recommend this. In fact, if only I were living in the US, I'd get every color. $0.99?! What a great deal!

Arthur Cohen gives his knowledge on the history of West Baltimore
By Katherina Capon , May 1, 2011
There was a time when West Baltimore wasn't lined with abandoned homes and the streets weren't filled with residents trying to turn a quick buck. There was a time when the school systems were better, people rode on trolley cars and everything you needed could be found in your local community. This time was before 1968, before Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated and before the Highway to Nowhere was built. From the time that West Baltimore was a striving community to now, where it is a community in need of help, Arthur Cohen was there.
Cohen came to Baltimore in the late 1960's as a lawyer looking to work in the legal services program.
" At this time Baltimore hadn't become infiltrated with drugs and gangs and it was still a nice mixed community, something like Charles Village," said Cohen about when he first moved to Baltimore.
In the 1960's West Baltimore was home to the Edmonson Avenue shopping center that brought people in from all over Baltimore. You were able to go shopping, grab a soda, eat at a nice restaurant and go see a movie all on one block.
"It was a great place to live until the city exploded with grief after the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. After that merchants left the area and people left the area," said Cohen.
At the time of the assassination Cohen was working as a professor in the sociology department for the Community College of Baltimore County.
" It was once I started working with the people of Baltimore that I got involved with trying to stop the expressway from cutting through Baltimore. It was here that the contacts were made," said Cohen.
Once involved Cohen joined the group, Movement Against Destruction from 1968 until 1977. After this group he got involved with the group , the Relocation Action Movement. Soon after the land where the highway was to be put was claimed by the state and a condemnation line was put down.
" People knew the condemnation line meant death to their neighborhood so before the first shovel even the hit the dirt people moved," said Cohen.
Where neighborhoods and storefronts once stood now lays a mile and a half of concrete used by commuters on their way to and from work.
"When you look at it you have to ask what was this for? I 've never seen much activity on it ever" said Cohen.
Now some 40 years later since the highway was put in place something is being done about it. It was in 2005 when community groups got re-involved with the Highway to Nowhere, according to Cohen.
"I got involved with it again because I have always been a fan of public transportation. I grew up in San Francisco with Cable cars, then Europe which had great public transportation, spent some time in New York City and even Washington D.C. I have always been a fan of rail transportation," said Cohen.
The highway has been closed down and construction has started but people are still skeptical. At the last quarterly MARC meeting many people were asking, " Is this for us, are we going to benefit from this?"
Right now many promises have made to the community and it is only with commitment from the government that these plans will follow through. According to Governor Martin O'Malley the light rail is to be completed by 2013.
Besides the light rail being put in everything else is "magical thinking" according to Cohen.
"People just can't think that once the Red Line comes that everything is going to be just fine. If all that happens is that the light rail is put in place, people are going to be disappointed. There needs to be constant pressure from the community on all fronts," said Cohen.
The light rail has brought much hope that the area will again turn into a commercial district and that housing stock will rise but this can only happen if everyone in the community is committed to this idea. The Red Line will be significant if the community and the government tend to other projects.
" There needs to be a combination of those who have lived here their entire life and those who are young and excited about making this there new home… Right now people need a vision. Having a vision is very important to this process," said Cohen.
Cohen one of the long timers has been committed to improving West Baltimore since day one. Though no longer a residence of the area, he resides in Mount Washington he still attends almost every meeting in the area, and is an advisor for the West Baltimore MARC Transportation Oriented Development and Transit incorporated Group.
" I feel invested in this community as a resident of Baltimore. This community is finally getting compensation for what happened to them. They won't get back every dollar of what they lost, but they are deserving of this," said Cohen.

Hello again! We have now been open for 2 weeks! What an amazing time and a very steep ramp up, which has been very exciting and thoroughly enjoyable. Jumble Jelly http://www.jumblejelly.com/ opened its doors to the world on Thursday 14th April 2011. Well we were overwhelmed by the positive comments, the support and keen interest from so many local Bradford-on-Avon people right from day one. A big, big, big thank you to everyone!!
In the last 2 weeks we have met so many lovely people from all over Wiltshire and Somerset, as well as many people that have travelled from further away. Again, a massive thank you for all your interest, kind wishes and support.
We recognise that our customers are very important to us, so we are keen to listen, learn, adapt and evolve into a shop that delivers the products and services that our customers' desire.

Already, the general feedback is that having Jumble Jelly http://www.jumblejelly.com/ providing a diverse range of products, covering the essentials of haberdashery to the wide range of knitting wools and yarns, to the plain and designer fabrics, all under one roof, is a positive asset to Bradford-on Avon. So again, thank you and we will endeavour to keep increasing the diversity of ranges and stock levels to achieve your expectations.
We have had significant interest in our on-site workshops, in particular for crochet, knitting and sewing. We are in the process of planning the calendar of events and this will be published very soon. Please come in and ask.
To support the widespread interest in the workshops, we have decided to expand already. The premises in Bradford-on-Avon lends itself to significant expansion having 3 storeys and we originally planned to allow this to evolve over a longer period of time. However, due to the interest, some of this planning has been brought forward and we are already preparing one large workshop room upstairs which should be finished in the next 2 weeks, with a plan for a second workshop room downstairs in the coming months.
Well that's probably enough blurb for now. Thank you again to everyone for kind wishes, comments, feedback, interest, support and for giving us the opportunity to meet you all.

This is the third article in a series by guest blogger Brittany Bruce
Brittany's series is based on her Masters' thesis research on collaboration and economic development in two regions. Her articles can be found here. Today's post focuses on overcoming the insider/outsider divide.
From February 10-12, 2015, I had the pleasure of attending the Economic Developers Council of Ontario (EDCO) annual conference in Hamilton.
I volunteered to be a 'recorder' for the Rural Community Engagement Session, moderated by Norm Ragetlie from the Rural Ontario Institute. This session was billed as more of a roundtable discussion than the traditional presentations normally found at a conference.
Attendees were seated at round tables, with each table being assigned a 'recorder'. After a brief presentation on the theory of community engagement by Lisa Attygalle from Tamarack, each table was asked to consider four questions related to their organization's role in engaging their own community.
One model of community engagement presented by Lisa was the IAP2 Spectrum of Public Participation (shown below). Different kinds of economic development related activities lend themselves to different levels of engagement. For example, a simple Internet blast detailing upcoming local events is likely only meant to inform citizens, rather than empower them. Conversely, a citizen led grassroots campaign to create a sustainable park in a city's downtown is more likely to be at the "Empower" level of engagement, rather than just being a one-way share of information.
Source: http://c.ymcdn.com/sites/www.iap2.org/resource/resmgr/imported/IAP2%20Spectrum_vertical.pdf
The questions posed to each table were as follows:
- How does your organization currently engage your community and where do you currently fall on the Community Engagement Continuum?
- Who are you currently engaging in this process and who is missing?
- Why should you be engaging with the community?
- What does success look like to you/your organization?
2. Are there organizations in your community demonstrating exceptional leadership in community engagement? What are the success stories and what does success look like?
3. What are some of the barriers/factors your community faces to engage the community and how can they be overcome?
4. What resources/tools are you familiar with that would assist your colleagues in more effective community engagement?
Engagement hampered by an insider/outsider mentality
Without getting into the specifics of what my table said for each question (a report will be published on a summary of the sessions findings), an interesting discussion emerged from my table. It was suggested by three of my five attendees that community engagement in their areas is often hampered by an insider/outsider mentality. This seemed pertinent to REAPontario, as immigrants are ostensibly outsiders in a number of ways.
The discussion at my table revolved around the idea that newcomers (i.e. outsiders) to a community often want to be engaged in community issues, either as a means of getting to know their new community, or because being involved is just what they are used to from their old community. Despite this interest, newcomers are often shut out of any engagement process, if any is occurring in the community.
In small town and rural communities, there may be an ingrained method of doing things. This is not to suggest that these kinds of communities are inflexible or incapable of change. However, intentionally or not, newcomers disrupt the status quo of a community. Therefore, locals may require an adjustment and acceptance period. Further, small town and rural communities are starting to understand that their continued prosperity will depend on attracting newcomers to their areas , either as permanent residents or as seasonal tourists.
Though this is anecdotal evidence, the attendees agreed that time and persistence are required to overcome this insider/outsider mentality. These groups have something to learn from each other and, arguably, it is the job of municipal leadership to facilitate and encourage this process.
I am grateful to have been involved in this session at EDCO. It was very interesting to hear the real-world, first-hand experiences of communities across Ontario.
Discussion Questions
- Has your community ever struggled with an insider/outsider mentality?
- What has worked to ameliorate this mentality?
- Do you have any suggestions for other communities that may be facing the same situation?

Really, I am making an effort. Life, as life will, keeps throwing curve balls at my efforts to return to blogging. Some, like my amazing trip with the BFF last week, are totally welcome pitches. Others, like a nasty health thingy, less so. Either way, I'm back. At least for this week. So, what's on?
Tuesday: Chicken tacos with roasted squash. Simple dinner for a busy day. We took a long walk, we cleaned the house, we did the laundry, I swapped out my summer clothes for fall ones (it's gloriously fall-like here, and the nights are chilly, it was time), and just hung out together. We don't get to do that enough, so we wanted to keep it easy for tonight.
Wednesday: Swai al forno, with olive oil and garlic roasted Brussel sprouts, and a Mediterranean ravioli. I love swai. It's affordable, it's sustainable, and it's delicious. Heartier and more flavorful than tilapia, less aggressive than your average catfish. Since I got a 2 lb bag at Aldi for $8, it's also a great way to include fish in the diet without cleaning out the bank account. I'm doing it with a fresh heirloom tomato and panko topping. The Brussel sprouts, one of my favorite veggies, are a great side to this. The pasta is actually a dish for later in the week's lunches, but we'll have a bit to fill out this meal. It's cheese ravioli with diced avocado, tomato, and sausage tossed in a light lemon and white wine sauce.
Thursday: Chicken tikka masala. Yes, I do Indian food a lot. It's delicious. It's also frugal and makes incredible leftovers. And, in this case, it's also incredibly easy. Slowcooker Indian Chicken, and the rice cooker for basamati. Noms.
Friday. The Mediterranean pasta above.
Saturday: Spicy Thai coconut curry soup. I love Thai soups. This one has a seafood and red curry base, with mushrooms, greens, red bell pepper, rice noodles, and fish.
Sunday & Monday: cleaning out the leftovers!
What are you eating this week?

Is your credit union's brand visible? TV ads, print ads, direct mail, blogs; all of these things aim to do one thing, make your brand visible to the people in your community. Whether that community is a small town or a nation, it is all about being visible to the people who might be looking for your service. For most credit unions, we are looking to be visible within our specific field of membership and connect with our members and potential members.
Blogging and other web2.0 efforts have the potential to connect credit unions to their members, but it isn't for everybody. Whether it's too new and untested or your membership just doesn't fall into what I consider "the blogging demographic", you can still find the world of blogging useful. Not only can credit unions find value in blogs themselves, but they can also take lessons from the blogging world that apply outside the electronic world.
The single best piece of advice I can offer to anybody starting a blog (for any reason) is, participate. The single best way to get a blog noticed is to participate in discussion. Make comments on blogs in your niche. Be a part of the community.
The same goes for getting your credit union noticed in your local community. The best way to get your name out, let people know what you do, and how you are different, is to participate. Get involved with your community.
It's not even just about raising money for charity or performing community service. There is so much activity going on in most places. Most of it gets overlooked more often than not. That's a shame.
Softball leagues, school clubs, sports teams looking for sponsorship; they all offer us the opportunity to get involved, participate, and bring our name to the community. There are opportunities all around us in our communities to be a part of those activities. Whether its by actually forming a softball team to compete in a local league or sponsoring a local robotics club at a highschool in your field of membership, there is a constant flow of events begging for participation, why shouldn't we be there with the people we serve.
What has your credit union done to participate within your local community? I'd love to hear your stories.

2014 · New Haven and London
by Homburg, Cornelia et al.
New Haven and London: Yale University Press / The Phillips Collection, 2014. Hardcover. VG. Blue cloth, blue & color illus. dust jacket, 191 pp., 130 color illus. Issued in conjunction with a 2014-2015 exhibition that "explores the creative exchange between Neo-Impressionist painters and Symbolist writers and composers in the late 1880s and early 1890s. Symbolism, with its emphasis on subjectivity, dream worlds, and spirituality, has often been considered at odds with Neo-Impressionism's approach to portraying color and light. This book repositions the relationship between these movements and looks at how Neo-Impressionist artists such as Maximilien Luce, Georges Seurat, Paul Signac, and Henry van de Velde created evocative landscape and figural scenes by depicting emptiness, contemplative moods, Arcadia, and other themes. ... This book reveals the vibrancy and depth of the Neo-Impressionist movement in Paris and Brussels in the late nineteenth century." (dj) With eight thematic and illustrated essays and a selected bibliography. The exhibition checklist cites works by 14 artists, and most if not all are pictured within the narrative. Nice!

Johnny Ronan to defend Dublin high rise
Developer Johnny Ronan's appeal to An Bord Pleanála against Dublin City Council's rejection of plans by Ronan Group Real Estate to build Dublin's tallest building next to Tara Street station gets under way today, writes Ronald Quinlan.
Mr Ronan's company, Tanat Ltd, is seeking permission to build a 22-storey (88m) tower comprising offices, a hotel and roof-top restaurant.
An Bord Pleanála's decision to hold an oral hearing came in response to a request from the developer. In dealing with the matter in a public forum, the board is observing a procedure it follows in complex cases or where there are significant national or local issues involved.

Nutrient density is the last thing we think about before eating something, yet it is one of the most important aspects to consider. Nutrient density is the ratio of nutrients/calories in any type of food. Fairly recently our population has become extremely aware of how many calories we are consuming. To solve this we process our food more, which in turn lowers the nutrient value significantly. Foods like ice cream, cake, cookies, and chocolate are all foods that are higher in calories then nutrients. The chart below shows the percentage of nutrients to calories. For example red meat has only 8 percent nutrients and 92 percent calories. That seems like a lot, but on occasion the nutrients are worth the calories gained. Anything above 8 percent would be considered on the healthy side of foods, while anything below 8 percent would not be considered necessary and would only be harming the body rather than improving it.
What we need to realize is there is an extremely low possibility to consume too much nutrients, while it is very possible to consume too many calories. Too many calories will result in weight gain and an excess of free radicals, which cause your body to break down from the inside out. Nutrients on the other hand, like antioxidants, neutralize these free radicals. The diagram below shows all the benefits antioxidants give us.
What may deter people from choosing to eat properly is price and time available to cook something starting from scratch. This can be remedied with a simple search online where there are many easy low calorie recipes under 5 dollars. For example when I typed in "under 5 dollar meals" and clicked on the first link, it gave me breakfast, lunch, and dinner options to feed 4 people under 5 dollars. http://save-a-lot.com/products/meals. With this information at our finger tips the only thing that should be preventing us from choosing the proper foods is our ever growing levels of laziness.

Trade dispute with dutch13
Hey guys and gals of ASC Im in a situation which needs some advising, back in December of last year dutch13 or known as James Ferriera bought my Classic Army SL-8 as shown in the post below.
Please before anyone makes a comment, please read the entire post, thanks
The Situation:
The sale of a CA SL8 was completed and shipped out early this year. However but in mid-march, James claimed that his top tech verified the gearbox and front grip are JG. I was amazed as the claims as I bought the gun new 2-3 years back. I am a full time student and at the time I had the flu but I still agree to look into it.
I look into the claims and two days later I get this obscure email, and I reply:
After this conversation we agree to trade back the SL-8 for by new KSC G23F plus some freebies. The KSC G23F can be seen in this ad.
During the phone conversation I coaxed to ship the KSC G23F to him the next day, apologizing how he acted as I was still ill, how I was only a student, that he would ship the SL-8 back as soon as possible and also he stated he had a scrim to attend. On Sunday I leave from Toronto to Hamilton for school and bring along my Glock to have it shipped the next day. Problem was that I forgot to bring the bag with some of the freebies and the metal slide. I explain this to him and he says it is fine, ship the slide later on, and sends me $40 for Priority shipping via CP. I describe to James that the G23Fs slide needs to be pulled back and then selected or it wont fire will break if forced and he gives me a reply.
I only shipped the G23F out because I was under the assumption that he would ship me the SL8. Before I rushed it out, I do a 1 (10-20 BBs) magazine test on semi to make sure it was working, and I send it out. My two roommates witnessed this and complained about the noise as well.
I send him the tracking number 20 minutes after I dropped it off at the post office and I receive a call from James within the hour.
Yo, the tracking number you gave me doesnt work he states. I describe to him, CanadaPost takes some time to have the item catalogued into their system, dont be surprised if it shows up before the tracking does.
The G23F arrives to him next day but he claims it does not shoot at all and spews gas all over the place, but also states clearly he did not fire it at all. This was very confusing and conflicting. I help him trouble-shoot problems and found it was the combination of auto-firing with propane and the plastic barrel.
So I'm thinking to myself, what the fuck?
He has both guns and he is not willing to ship the SL8 back. I was very accommodating trying to compensate him to the best of my ability and in the end, he holds the SL-8 hostage.
You dont walk into a store asking for an exchange without the item in question in hand to return.
Then communication cease ... I am trying my best accommodate him but lack of trust seems to be the issue here.
His lack of technical knowledge is stopping me from sending the slide to him to install himself as he stated he never touched a mechbox. He might or might not screw something up and end up keeping all items. He gives me no assurances that he will ship the item back and his attitude does not help. His conflicting stories regarding studio work and not firing the glock even once but finds out it is broken troubles me.
I'm very hesitant to ship anymore things as I'm not getting any proof of claims or the SL8 or the Glock, I asked him to provide some pictures but provided nothing. He gas both the CA SL-8 and the new KSC G23F, and I have only the amount for the SL-8.
Here are James last words....

This guy from Winnipeg?
If so, I'm willing to go and check on the glock as well as the G36 and help get everything solved.

If you can get some trusted local players in his area, preferably Age Verifiers or local community administrators to check on your guns I would suggest it before he damages them more. If they run into trouble get the authorities involved.

Well enough with all of this
To begin with my buddy came on here with me, because he was not age verified yet and wanted an AEG.
I brought my buddy on here to purchase the gun for his birthday. He found the gun that he liked and bought it from Qlong. He had issues with it right from the get go. So he took it in to a very reputable gun tech in which he told him that the gun had substandard internals. Meanwhile he had thought that this gun was of complete CA parts and found out that it was all lower standard JG. So he contacted him about the issue in which Qlong told him that he would send him an automatic G23 with a metal slide. So he sent him the G23 without the metal slide in which my friend told him that he would wait to send him the sl8 until he sent him the slide, just to cover his own ass considering he paid 500 for the sl8 and an auto G23 is not worth that at all. So from my understanding the deal went sour and now my name is being slandered all over these forums, even though the deal went on outside of ASC because he did not want to use my account. He has read everything that is on here, and is more than willing to send the SL8 back, but wants the slide he was promised.
To be honest, this deal was made outside of ASC and should be kept outside ASC. All parties should man up and deal with it.
Qlong, contact him, you have his email as well as his phone number.
All my trader feedback has been nothing but positive on here, and no one stole anything, it's been a miscommunication and it needs to be resolved. He, himself has been calling me everyday wondering what he should do. He feels himself that he has been burned.
If you don't want to believe than that's fine, but i've been nothing but faithful to this community and am willing to do anything for it.
So the two parties should contact each other and figure this out, slandering my name all over this website won't help.
Thanks very much for reading

Otherwise take your medicine and swallow it because, if half the shit that your pal spewed is accurate then Q has every right to want to expose this transaction to the community.

I'm sitting here right now with him, and maybe he worded things wrongly but he feels he was burned just as much as Qlong. To be honest with you, if Qlong wants to contact me I'm more than welcome to talk to him. I will be the middle man here and if he wants anything shipped back I will work it out.
I don't believe I should be the one here getting hammered down on. I tried getting another person into the sport, that's all I tried to do. And now my name is getting thrown around like a piece of shit.

you are basically ransoming the SL8 from Q and your last msg to him saying you were "even now because you got 2 crappy guns" is fucking bullshit
and you're a fucking liar for sayiing you bought it for theatrical purposes, and then talking all that smack about being in the film industry etc.

1. April Fool's is over so pay attention cuz I'm serious (and work-related pissed right from the start)
2. If you aren't directly involved in this deal you can stop posting on this thread. Exception to Amos because he can help out and Rugger_Can cuz he had the best reply.
3. ducth13, congratulations, you successfully circumvented the AV system by giving a non-AV'd person access to the classifieds. That's grounds for permanently losing your AV status right off the bat. Your name is now involved and "slandered" because you got the ball rolling in the first place. I strongly advise you to make yourself small and overly accommodating cuz your name is on this transaction.
4. Whoever has the SL8 (Dutch13 or Dutch's friend or Clint Eastwood, I don't give a fuck) comes across as a douche. He needs to send the guns back (and maybe explore the wonderful world of paintball). If he's genuinely worried he'll get ripped off, maybe Amos would be willing to act as an escrow (dude?).
There's also claims some ASC staff was involved. AFAIK no staff was contacted, so I'd like some names. I also want that gun tech to come on record on this thread (no I'm not chasing him down, he comes to me, here).
2nd edit
Qlong, would like to hear your proposed solution to this. Full refund and return to status quo? Complete the agreed upon transaction (return SL8 and you send slide and stuff)?

I am now too looking into this issue....
Couple of things wrong in this whole thread.
1) Everyone who has no business in this sale should have shut the fuck up ans stayed out of it.
2) Qlong should have received an SL8 back in the mail, not having it being held ransom. He did offer a refund, which was turned down in exchange for a KSC G23f, which unless all of a sudden they've become cheap is a $350 gun last time I bought one.
3) dutch13 you allowed a non age verified member access to the buy/sell forums when Winnipeg has one of the largest pools of Verifiers in the west. This is against the rules, your own verification is now under review.
4) Once this is solved and straightened out, someones going to get a kicking.
As Drake said I only want to see the parties involved, staff or Amos who has been asked to check into this for the staff in here. Anyone else may face the wrath of my temp ban hammer.

Fairness and Transparency. Noble words. But also the building blocks of a trustworthy and viable investment industry for the long-term.
Also inextricably linked to a trustworthy and sustainable financial industry are
knowledge and
clarity, and one aspect that continues to evade us is the clarity on
costs of investments. Given the current complexity of investment processes do we really know how much of our investments return is being given up to compensate for the implementation costs? What are the hidden costs of investments and how do we manage them? Finally how do we measure up against others who use, buy and sell the same investment products and services? These are questions that will be put in the spotlight at this conference, which will help:*
asset managers and financial service providers to get a better grip on their production costs*
asset owners and end investors to understand what and how much they are paying for their investments*
regulators and oversight bodies to better understand the cost basics in order to recognise abuse occurring in the opaque handling of investment costs
CFA Society Netherlands and CFA Institute are pleased to invite you to join us at a unique gathering on
25 November 2014 where senior investment professionals will discuss the core issues in The Netherlands today, and consider how our investment, marketplace and regulatory communities can work together to deliver solutions that are fit for purpose.

The following excerpt is taken from the Post Deployment Health Assessment from the US Department of Defence's questionnaire screening for PTSD and if you answer yes to any of these four questions, you are at risk of suffering from PTSD.
Have you ever had any experience that was so frightening, horrible, or upsetting that, in the past month, you:
- Have had any nightmares about it or thought about it when you did not want to
- Tried hard not to think about it or went out of your way to avoid situations that remind you of it.
- Were constantly on guard, watchful or easily startled
- Felt numb or detached from others, activities or your surroundings
You are at risk of suffering from acute PTSD if you experience this within 4 days of returning and if it lasts for less than a month. You are at risk of suffering from chronic PTSD if the signs last longer than a month. Sometimes the onset of symptoms can be delayed until years later.
Thanks to Stephanie for letting me pick her brains about PTSD - she is a grad student in social work that is studying Veteran Affairs.
Defining Travel PTSD
Travel PTSD is like Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, but When Returning from Travelling
Symptoms include:
• Reverse Homesickness - missing people and places from abroad
• Inability to focus on everyday tasks/dreams about travelling
• Boredom, insecurity, uncertainty and frustration
• Feelings of alienation or withdrawal
• Need for excessive sleep
Travel PTSD and the Reverse Culture Shock of Returning Home
Travel PTSD is similar to Reverse Culture Shock and Transition Shock. Travel PTSD is the phenomenon of returning to one's home country and culture after travelling – unlike Culture Shock, most do not anticipate feeling like a foreigner in their own home.
However, Travel PTSD should be expected, if you have made cultural adjustments while travelling, you will have to readjust once you return.
Just as a soldier changes his camouflage to adapt to his surroundings, so a person must be prepared to change when returning home or stand out like Snooki's Poof on the Jersey Shore.
Travel PTSD is the awareness of not blending in to your home country and culture on your return, and this is especially a risk if you have been living abroad for an extended period. Many people will not show the slightest bit of interest in the life changing journey or time abroad you have just returned from.
Especially if you drop your travel stories into too many conversations saying things like "When i was in the Arctic Circle..." as not everyone has the same opportunities and some people get quite jealous.
How to Overcome Travel PTSD
- Plan your next trip.
- Stay in touch with fellow travellers through social media and share your Travel PTSD experiences.
- Journal your thoughts and emotions and share your experience through writing contests and photo contests.
- Stay connected to the world through global news networks and newspapers with an international / global focus for example The Economist and the BBC World are a good place to start.

My LinkedIn Success Perspective and Risks
December 10, 2009 at 6:09 pm (LinkedIn, Networking, social networking, Transmyt Marketing)
I have admitted to you that I am a LinkedIn addict. I see it more as an opportunity than a problem, though I encounter hesitant people regularly who ask: Why should I spend the time? How has it been successful?
The philosophy of networking, be it web-based or face-to-face, is to get out there in the world and make meaningful connections. And for a business developer like me, I need to convince my connections that I'm likable, reliable and that I offer a service of value.
LinkedIn is my own personal database or customer relationship manager (CRM). Just like any organization, I use 'my database' to manage my prospects, clients, and referral sources—though on a much more individualized level.
LinkedIn is ideal for professionals who want their personal reputation to impact business growth. It's all about who I know, and who they know. Since you asked, as of today, I have 314 LI connections (and growing), and they provide access to a network of 2,604,400+ professionals. This is not including the LI Group members that I can contact directly.
I use LinkedIn to stay on my prospects' radar, during the time when we're not networking face-to-face.
- When you use LinkedIn, I want you to come across people you want to connect with, and I want you to notice that you are separated by 2 degrees, ME. This increases my value.
- I also what you to see that we share similar connections, and thus, I must be good people.
- I want you to see my profile and recommendations and have confidence in my abilities and reliability.
- I want you to notice that I'm attending credible events.
- I want you to think that my status updates and blog posts are clever and that they provide value to you.
- Finally, I want you to question your marketing strategy and think: "let me call JoAnne for advice."
Wikipedia sources offer that "Interactive Marketing refers to the evolving trend in marketing whereby marketing has moved from a transaction-based effort to a conversation… interactive marketing is the ability to address the customer, remember what the customer says and address the customer again in a way that illustrates that we remember what the customer has told us."
LinkedIn helps me maintain my connections, get to know each of them better, facilitates conversations and helps me interact 1:1. It has become an invaluable tool in my career.
Please reply with your LinkedIn success perspective so I can share our stories with my hesitant friends.
NOTE: Who owns the LinkedIn profile, the company or the individual? That's debatable; LinkedIn's User Agreement states that the individual owns it and it's nontransferable. Thus it's important that your social media policy clearly outline parameters for LinkedIn business use; I also suggest that you develop a systematic procedure for transferring contacts made on behalf of the company to the company database. Please feel welcome to weigh in on this as well.

The other thing is that if Aerosmith is coming maybe, just maybe my dream of the Rolling Stones could come true!!!!
Yeah I know unlikely but that would be so amazing, a dream come true.
I have got two days off now and it's just as well because I'm so tired I feel like I'm barely functioning, the temptation to take up residence on the couch is very strong but there has been wonderful feedback from the lady who bought my last order of cards and her family and friends are over the moon with them and there is a possibility of some ongoing orders so I think it's time to get organised and make some more. I have so many new stamps, dies and papers that I'm keen to try that it would be a good excuse to play, I definitely need the therapy and forget about work and all the drama it entails.
So a quick clean-up in the morning then into paper heaven......sounds like a plan.

Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve.
Napoleon Hill
I can remember the years when I did not dare to dream. Simple survival took so much energy back then, wistful notions just intensified my melancholy to unmanageable limits. Hopelessness had me by the short hairs, plodding footsteps carried me from one heartache to the next. Hope hurt. Wishes wounded. I had no space for such things inside a mind overburdened with worry and fear.
I finally reached the point of no return. One moment I was totally defeated, the next I was enraged beyond belief. In the time it took to blink twenty years of suppressed emotions sprang to life in an overwhelming torrent that shook me soul deep. I was suddenly certain that if I did not make a stand I would be dooming myself to be forever satisfied with the status quo.
I believe the notion of being at a crossroads where there would be no turning back made it impossible to choose the wrong path. How could anyone possibly opt for pain without end when another road was so clearly highlighted? I took responsibility for my part in the drama and altered the role I was willing to play from eternal victim to wounded warrior. I was suddenly fighting for more than the simple right to survive, I was battling for the chance to thrive.
At first the things dreamed of were simple and direct. Most of the footsteps taken have been clearly illuminated by understanding of cause and effect. Once a destination was chosen the pathway did not become any easier, in fact it became much harder. When times get brutal I often remind myself that a difficult journey to somewhere worth reaching is much better than mindless travel anywhere else.
Simply knowing you are walking through a mine field is no protection, but mapping the danger insures more confident passage. Find your strengths and exercise them. Search out your weakness and avoid places where they will be tested. Failure is often self-inflicted, because success can prove to be such a frightening force to be reckoned with.
Dreaming no longer wounds me as it once did. Dreams fuel my every footstep, notions brought to life are joyous endeavors nowadays. The only differences between having a dream or possessing a reality are the actions necessary to create it. First you have to see it then you can be it. Never stop dreaming, because dreams are what a life worth living is made of.

Corruption and Crime Commission officers used assumed identities to obtain multiple driver's licences so they could rack up demerit points with impunity, the parliamentary inspector has found.
As part of Michael Murray's ongoing investigation into the CCC's Operational Support Unit (OSU), he has discovered officers have used assumed identities to obtain driver's licences in the ACT and Tasmania, then have the domicile changed to WA.
"No law authorised the Commission to use either means to achieve the outcome of a driver's licence issued in this state under a Commission officer's assumed identity," Mr Murray said in a report on Friday.
He also found some officers had accumulated - and were continuing to amass - enough demerit points for traffic offences to trigger a driver's licence suspension, but were using multiple licences under various aliases to avoid that happening.
"This systemic abuse of the assumed identity power resulted in a situation where OSU officers would have been driving Commission vehicles on the state's roads without the legal right to do so," Mr Murray said.
CCC officers who weren't in the OSU also possessed multiple driver's licences under various names, he discovered.
And after it emerged an OSU officer had been charged and fined for possessing a prohibited drug at a music festival before applying for the role of special constable, Mr Murray found out that the CCC had never checked the criminal history of any officers before such applications were made on their behalf.
Mr Murray said it was not necessary to make recommendations in relation to criminal history checks because new procedures had been introduced in that respect, but he made other recommendations.
They were that a Commission officer should only hold one assumed identity at any time and should notify the Department of Transport in writing about any demerit points or fines imposed under an assumed identity so they can be recorded against the officer's real name.
The CCC said it had already dealt with issues raised in the report.
"The CCC worked co-operatively with police during the investigation and have since made considerable changes including implementing policies and processes for dealing with demerit points accumulated on assumed identities," it said.
"The officers whose actions gave rise to the investigation and report are no longer with the CCC."

Loving husband Paul Whitaker is cycling 100 miles to raise money for charity.
The Chief Petty Officer Marine Engineering Mechanic Submariner is preparing to join more than 25,000 cyclists to raise cash for Ovarian Cancer Action.
Paul, who works at HMS Sultan in Gosport, will attempt the Prudential Ride London 100 on July 31.
The 54-year-old, from Lee-on-the-Solent, was inspired to do the challenge by his wife Cheryl.
He says: 'Cheryl started it all going when she entered the Ride The Night 100km in London in 2015, raising money for Ovarian Cancer Action.
'She said I should get involved so I applied to take part in the Man Power challenge. Unfortunately, although it was a five-day ride from Glasgow to London, I could only join in on the last day.
'But I really enjoyed every mile and thanks to the support of Ovarian Cancer Action I got a place to represent the charity in the Prudential Ride London 100.
'I have completed weekly training rides.
'Hopefully Cheryl will be on The Mall a few hours later to welcome me back.'
Paul has been awarded a number of medals during his career in the Royal Navy.
But despite all of Paul's success, he is still enjoying the buzz that a new challenge brings.
He adds: 'You are never too old to start something new and getting into cycling again has allowed me to set personal goals and enjoy every minute and second of being outdoors.'

The entrants to competition give us a view of future of our profession and architecture across the Commonwealth. It is wonderful that the CAA is able to showcase this to the world. Congratulations to the well deserving winners and to the great ideas and enthusiasm demonstrated in all the entries."

A recent law, AB 1522 Healthy Workplaces, Healthy Families Act, required a change in the timing of when MegaFlex employees receive their Non-Elective Annual Leave (NEL). There are no changes to the amount of NEL employees receive, just when they have access to it. MegaFlex employees have always earned NEL each pay period, but that was not necessarily clear to them because the total amount of earned NEL was provided to employees on January 1 of the following year.*
The new law requires that employees receive paid time off more quickly than the old MegaFlex schedule allowed. NEL will now be provided each pay period. On the July 30, 2015 payday, MegaFlex employees will receive a one-time "catch-up" of the NEL that they earned so far this year. Going forward, MegaFlex employees will receive the NEL they earn each pay period in the next pay period.
These questions and answers provide more detail on the NEL change:
Q. Does this change mean employees receive more time off?
A. No. This change only affects the schedule that Non-Elective Annual Leave (NEL) is provided to employees.
Q. Does this change affect how NEL is carried over from year to year?
A. No. Unused NEL still carries over from year to year and can be banked up to a maximum of 60 days (480 hours).
Q. Does this change affect Elective Annual Leave (EAL), the days MegaFlex employees can buy each year?
A. No. The rules regarding EAL have not changed. Employees can still purchase up to 20 days (160 hours) of EAL each year. As always, EAL may not be used until all NEL, and any other time on the books, is used.
Q. Will employees need to buy more EAL days due to this change?
A. Not necessarily. However, employees will now receive NEL sooner than in the past, and could use some, or all, of it in the current year. Should that happen, employees who want to take time off early in the next year will need to buy days during annual enrollment to have paid time available.
Q. When will the "catch-up" hours for 2015 be available to employees?
A. For the July 30, 2015 payroll, the County will provide employees with the NEL they have earned from January 1, 2015 to July 15, 2015. A 40–hour employee who has worked all of 2015 should receive approximately 52 hours (6.5 days) of NEL.
Q. How much NEL will employees earn each pay period?
A. Employees who work a 40 hour schedule will receive approximately 4 hours each pay period. * New hires to MegaFlex had a different schedule in the first year they were hired. They too earned NEL each pay period they worked, but did not receive any NEL until the anniversary of their hire.

India puts off border talks with China over Beijing's Dalai Lama remarks
A major Indian news channel is reporting that India has indefinitely put off an important border talk with China after Beijing demanded New Delhi scrap a Buddhist conference where Tibetan spiritual leader His Holiness the Dalai Lama is scheduled to speak.
NDTV has quoted sources as saying that China raised objections to the Dalai Lama's address at the Buddhist conference being held in the capital next week – the same time when India and China were scheduled to hold talks.
"The Chinese side want the event to be scrapped," NDTV said.
India and China were to hold their 15th round of Special Representative-level talks on the long-pending boundary problem on Monday and Tuesday next week.
India in turn has reportedly called the Chinese demand "outrageous".
"New Delhi decided not to cave in and has put off the boundary talks," NDTV said in its report.
This is the first time that talks have been put off between the two sides in this manner.
Chinese Special Representative Dai Bingguo was to arrive in Delhi to follow up on border talks with his Indian counterpart Shivshankar Menon. The last talks were held in Beijing in November 2010.
The four-day Global Buddhist Congregation is scheduled to be held from November 27 to 30 coinciding with the 2600th year of the Enlightenment of Buddha .
According to the organisers, religious, spiritual and world leaders, as well as 800 scholars, delegates and observers from 32 countries will be attending the Congregation.
His Holiness the Dalai Lama and the 17th Gyalwang Karmapa are scheduled to attend the Congregation.
Recently the bi-lateral relation between India and China hit turbulent waters with heated words exchanged over India's cozying up of relations with Vietnam and New Delhi's "interference" in the South China sea, parts of which both China and Vietnam lay claim over.

My name is Jo Boon and I am founder of the body positive performance arts company, Label. If you enjoy this personal blog you may well also enjoy the magazine I run: www.label-press.com I run this blog along with Gabi who, in all honesty, is far more experienced than I on the subject of living an environmental lifestyle.
The Ethical Wardrobe is a blog to document our journey towards more ethical fashion choices. We will be sharing the wonderful designers we find along the way, and sharing tips for how we can do less damage with the wardrobes we cultivate. As part of this change, we'll also be attempting more ethical buying patterns in other areas of my life, including our eating habits and the beauty products we buy.
We will be using the #whomademyclothes to connect with others in this movement, although there are many out there campaigning for environmental change. If you haven't seen the film, The True Cost, yet we cannot recommend it highly enough, as it is one of the factors that greatly influenced our change regarding the fashion industry.
Every person who decides to cultivate a more ethical wardrobe makes a huge difference to the industry, your carbon footprint and the people making our clothes around the world. Do you know where your clothes came from? Do you know what the cost was? Could you make a change in the future? These are questions we should all be asking ourselves.
There is no beauty in the finest cloth if it makes hunger and unhappiness. – Gandhi

Tandie Mansfield announces candidacy for Bandera County Clerk
Public Service Announcement
I was born and raised in Bandera. After graduating from Bandera High School, I attended Schreiner University where I obtained an associate's degree in business. Soon after, I married my high school sweetheart, Bo Mansfield, who was in the United States Marine Corps. We have two wonderful children. Averie is a junior at Colorado School of Mines, and Kalie is a sophomore at Texas A&M University.
We moved back to Bandera 11 years ago to raise our children in this community. Shortly after, I began working in the Bandera County Clerk's office. I started out working in the Official Public Records department and moved into Civil, Juvenile and Probate cases. To further familiarize myself with the entire Clerk's office, I moved into the Criminal Misdemeanor Department, where I am currently the court coordinator.
I was extremely fortunate to be mentored by the retiring clerk, Candy Wheeler. For five years, while serving as her chief deputy, I had the privilege of observing her professional interaction with the public and other county officials. Through her leadership, she has taught me the importance of serving the county.
My goal is to serve the citizens of Bandera County with courtesy, integrity and respect.

So what are the most common cooking mistakes we learned from our parents and how do we fix them? Overcooking. Too little salt. Ingredients out of balance. But the most common - and the easiest to correct - according to Summer Tomato by Darya Pino is:
Mistake #4: Using bad ingredients
I saved this until the end because I say it all the time on Summer Tomato, but this is really the most important step. It's February and asparagus couldn't be any more out of season, so don't buy it. There are plenty of seasonal ingredients at your local grocery and they will taste worlds better (and be cheaper) than anything artificially ripened and/or shipped from another hemisphere.
Solution: Cook with the seasons
Even if you can't make it to the farmers market every weekend, you can still find seasonal (if not exactly local) ingredients in your grocery store. If you live in Minnesota and can only find California broccoli this time of year, so be it. But you don't need strawberries from Chile or tomatoes from a greenhouse in the middle of winter, and they won't taste good anyway. Here's a great seasonal food chart if you don't know where to start.
My South Louisiana family loved good food. Naturally. We're Cajun. Good food is very nearly religion in that neck of the woods. Everybody cooks. But loving good food is not the same as learning how to cook, so there were plenty of "uninspired" meals (read bland or downright bad) when my mother was in the kitchen. My BFF and I laugh about tough meat and gray green beans.
Hey I get it.
Some of my meals are also "uninspired" when I'm not into it. That's when it's a real joy that my BFF also loves to putter around in the kitchen.
Cooking in season and stretching our menu to incorporate new, unfamiliar vegetables is a constant adventure. We don't like everything. Not every recipe turns out as we expected. But the quest to work with Mother Nature - eating in season with all its health and environmental benefits and the satisfaction when a new food / recipe works - makes it all worthwhile.
