|Mud Lake WMA is located three miles north of the towns of Mud Lake and Terreton, in east Idaho's Jefferson County.
|Up to 50,000 snow geese, settle on Mud Lake in March and early April. Mallard, northern pintail, gadwall, wigeon, northern shoveler, redhead and ring-necked ducks, together with green-winged and cinnamon teal, commonly nest in Mud Lake's East and West Sloughs. Canada geese readily nest on islands and nesting structures scattered throughout the area.
The largest of all waterfowl, trumpeter swans, are also present in the spring.
Red-tailed and Swainson's hawks frequently nest on the area; other hawk species spend a portion of the spring and/or fall on the WMA. Northern harriers (marsh hawks) are commonly seen dipping and gliding only inches above Mud Lake's cattail marshes. Long-eared, short-eared and saw-whet owls spend the summer at Mud Lake WMA, nesting and raising their young. Bald and golden eagles are common fall and winter guests.
Mud Lake is a popular destination for fishing enthusiasts. Largemouth bass are the primary species sought by anglers during spring, while yellow perch fishing is common during winter months. In 1993, tiger muskies were reintroduced to Mud Lake and provide a limited, but exciting, trophy fishery.
Waterfowl hunting on Mud Lake WMA is often excellent in the late fall and early winter months. The quality of upland bird hunting (ring-necked pheasant and gray partridge) depends largely on nesting success the previous summer.

Staff writer
Every once in a while an idle listener will pick up a tidbit of conversation between Dana Wolford and a friend after church at Hillsboro United Methodist. He or she will quickly be confused when Wolford starts talking about his kids and pastures and feed all in the same sentence.
Wolford said he has to step back and explain that by kids he means the seven Hereford cattle he tends to on a small piece of rented property at 2542 Jade Road. He does not have children of his own.
"This is my family," Wolford said pointing to his small herd.
It's clear in Wolford's interactions with his heifers that he takes extra care with his cattle. In between brush strokes, dislodging clumps of hair and manure on the back of a new bull he purchased and picked up Saturday, he would pet the bull along the animal's neck. The young bull would lean into Wolford's hand asking for more.
Wolford said disposition is the most important characteristic in cattle, usually docile for Herefords he said. He enjoys learning the personality of each animal. He knows that he can walk and pet Tulip and Chloe without either cow flinching. He knows Duchess and Diamond won't stand still long enough.
Bulls are like people — sometimes there are initiation rights for a new recruit. Wolford did not want to put his new bull with Danny and Tucker in fear of a fight.
Cattle have been Wolford's life since birth. He grew up on a dairy farm near Emporia and he's had his own cattle since 2004.
This is the busiest time of year with calving season. Wolford's schedule begins by waking up before sunrise to check the pastures for Devin and Jean Winter and another landowner for which he works. He then checks for new calves in the Winters' herd of 60 to 66 head of cattle — he sends a text to the owner if a calf was born overnight, then tags, and feeds the newborn.
He repeats the process for the other land and then starts feeding with silage.
He works all day with cattle and then comes home and works with more cattle. At night, in his down time, he reads what he calls Hereford Playboys — "Hereford World", "Hereford America," and other sale catalogues — studying the breed for upcoming shows.
Wolford's favorite part of ranching is genetics. He marveled how calves can be born with far different characteristics from either parent. That fact does not stop him from trying to breed, using artificial and natural insemination, the best animals possible with the preferred height, weight, length and easygoing personality.
"How well they walk," Wolford gave as an example. "If they don't walk well, you're just asking for problems. You're better off letting her get fat and become hamburger."
Most of Wolford's cattle do not go straight to the slaughter, that's part of the reason he can become attached, and give each heifer and bull a name. Between Wolford and hamburger is at least one other owner, who is likely to take as good of care of the animal as he would.
"I'm glad to see them work for somebody else," Wolford said. "I like to raise a nice animal to sell to breed or to a 4-H'er."
There's no doubt Wolford loves what he does, loves his family. He would sell all of his cattle with a "Godfather" offer of $5,000 a head; he said each cow is worth about $2,500.
Then he would go right back out and buy a Hereford cow or two.

Shaquille O'Neal has retired from professional basketball, and Stu Templin, for one, is not shedding any tears.
A Los Angeles Lakers fan enjoying coffee at a local doughnut shop, Mr. Templin loves that O'Neal helped the Lakers win three National Basketball Association championships, but when it comes to O'Neal's style, his assessment is withering.
"He was completely predictable and played like an animal," Templin says. "Fake left, fake right, back up into his opponent, turn and stuff the ball. Bor-ING!"
Sean Deveney of the Sporting News, however, has a different take: O'Neal was nothing less than a revolution of size and athleticism, he said on an online video. The NBA had never seen his like before.
It is a taste of the different views of the 19-year NBA veteran who was larger than life in so many ways. As a basketball player in his prime, he often seemed to be his own continent, geologic in his vastness, primal in his raw power. As a man, he was his own industry, spawning films, rap music, and even a television show whose sole premise was O'Neal challenging various athletes in their own sports.
On the court, how did he measure up against the all-time great big men – Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Wilt Chamberlain, Bill Russell, or Hakeem Olajuwon? "Certainly you can make an argument for any of them" being the best of all time," said Mr. Deveney.
Shaq: The greatest?
While he lacked the elegance of Jabbar's sky hook, the finesse of Olajuwon's low-post moves, or the championship rings of Russell, he had a Jurassic physique (7 feet, 1 inch tall, 325 lbs.) with the nimble feet of a thoroughbred.
"He was able to not just back you down and beat you up, but then drop these little spin moves and hook shots," Deveney said. "Certainly the combination of size and athleticism is something the league had never seen, and for a quite a few years … didn't know how to defend, didn't know how to referee, didn't know how to handle in general, and that was something that will always stand out."
"If any of them were to play one-on-one in their primes, I am not sure any of them really could have handled Shaq … even Olajuwon," added Deveney, "Just because of his sheer size and agility and the way he was able to use it. Nobody we've ever seen is like Shaq and we're unlikely to see someone quite like him again."
Following a standout career at Louisiana State University, O'Neal was drafted by the Orlando Magic in the 1992 NBA draft. Winning rookie of the year, he quickly became one of the most dominant centers in the league, leading the Magic to the NBA finals in 1995.
He signed with the Los Angeles Lakers in 1999 and won three consecutive NBA championships in 2000, 2001, and 2002. He was named MVP of the NBA Finals all three times and had the highest scoring average for a center in NBA Finals history. The Lakers have said they will retire his No. 34 jersey.
After feuding with the Lakers' other superstar, Kobe Bryant, O'Neal was traded to the Miami Heat in 2004, winning a fourth NBA championship in 2006. He finished out his career with stints at the Phoenix Suns, Cleveland Cavaliers, and Boston Celtics.
Beyond basketball
Yet his footprint on American culture was not confined only to the basketball court. Beginning in 1993, O'Neal began to compose music. He released five studio albums and one compilation album. One critic credited him with "progressing as a rapper in small steps, not leaps and bounds." He also appeared in films such as "Blue Chips" and "Kazaam."
It was O'Neal's lopsided smile and outsize personality that helped him transcend sport off the court. "I think [ESPN columnist] Michael Wilbon said it best when he wrote that Shaq had an understanding that sports is showbiz and what his place is in that universe," says Chris Corbellini, senior sports writer at The Daily, a web publication for the iPad, in an e-mail. "The guy may have been intimidating to a lot of NBA players, but fans will probably remember him for his smile and acting like a little kid in a giant's body." [Editor's note: Mr. Corbellini's quote has been corrected.]
In his final year, O'Neal failed to deliver the championship many in Boston had hoped for. But he ended up bringing the community together in a big way, according to Dan Lebowitz, executive director of the Center for Sport in Society at Northeastern University. As an example of his common touch, he once tweeted that he was headed for Harvard Square, where he sat quietly as a statue for one hour as fans took pictures with him (see video).
"He matured at each stop he made in the NBA and became a communal force here in Boston because he saw his place beyond basketball," says Mr. Lebowitz. "He showed us what humanity is all about, black, white, rich or poor.… It came with his maturation as a human being over the years."

Michelle Marti, 34, of Stamford, Conn., has always been weight-conscious. Now that she's pregnant with her first child, it's been a challenge for her to avoid becoming obsessed with her expanding body.
Just entering her second trimester, Marti walks about 40 minutes every day and lifts weights twice a week. She's careful about every bite she eats and avoids junk food.
At 12 weeks, she's gained just 3 pounds but worries that her clothes are already getting too tight.
"It's weird because I don't feel 'pregnant,' I just feel bloated and fat," says Marti, who struggled with an eating disorder in her teens and 20s. "I feel like I've gained a lot more than that."
Another mom-to-be, Alison Thoe, 28, of Brunswick, Maine, is determined not to gain the 40 pounds she put on during her first pregnancy — mostly the result of daily visits to Dairy Queen, she admits. Early in her third trimester, she's put on just 8.5 pounds, slightly below average, a feat accomplished by jogging three days a week and carefully monitoring her diet.
"With this pregnancy, I am very strict with my calorie intake and no Dairy Queen!" says Thoe, whose pre-pregnancy weight was 133 pounds.
Whether women are caught up in the social pressure to be glamour mamas even when expecting a child (thank you supermodel Heidi Klum), or afraid that packing on the pounds will lead to health risks for both baby and mom, more expectant mothers are struggling to control their weight.
"I ... feel like a giant fat blob'
According to these women, being pregnant is OK. Being fat isn't.
"You hear about women gaining 60 pounds while pregnant," says Marti. "I don't want to do that."
Internet message boards geared to pregnant moms are filled with posts from anxious women bemoaning their changing bodies.
"I KNOW I shouldn't feel this way but I do. I am 32 weeks and up 30 lbs and feel like a giant fat blob. It seems like a lot of weight to have gained!" writes a Chicago mom-to-be at Urbanbaby.com, a Web site for parents.

More women opting for preventive mastectomy - but should they be?
Rates of women who are opting for preventive mastectomies, such as Angeline Jolie, have increased by an estimated 50 percent in recent years, experts say. But many doctors are puzzled because the operation doesn't carry a 100 percent guarantee, it's major surgery -- and women have other options, from a once-a-day pill to careful monitoring.

"Before I got pregnant I was under the false illusion that neurotic behavior about food, exercise and weight didn't exist in pregnant women. Unfortunately, I am still neurotic and it sounds like many others are as well," writes another Urbanbaby poster.
Heidi Murkoff, author of "What to Eat When You're Expecting," isn't surprised at the current angst over bulging bellies.
"With skinny women on magazine covers everywhere, the prospect of putting on that much weight is terrifying to pregnant women," she says. "But if you're starving yourself, you're starving your baby. Your baby is what you eat."
For Sara Muller, 33, of New York, controlling the pounds while pregnant involved regular visits to the gym and sticking to "healthier carbs" in her diet.
"I was very conscientious about my weight before I was pregnant, didn't want to use pregnancy as a free pass to eat whatever I want," the first-time mom says. "There's a concern that despite your efforts to eat well and work out, you don't know how high your weight is going to go."
In general, women who restrict their calories during pregnancy tend to be more affluent and educated, according to a study by the American Dietetic Association. They are also more anxious, stressed and "less uplifted about their pregnancies."
Obesity is biggest problem
Yet while some women pursue the "perfect bump" by restricting how much they eat, the reality is that many pregnant women are gaining way too much weight, a side effect of the nation's obesity problem, say doctors. More than half of American women between ages 25 and 55 are overweight or obese, according to recent data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.
An estimated 40 percent of pregnant women have "super-sized pregnancies," in which they're gaining more than the recommended amount of weight, says Dr. Christine Olson, professor of the department of nutritional science at Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y.
"Women say they are concerned about weight during pregnancy, but when you look at the scales and you look at the proportion of women that gain too much, in some groups, it's the majority," she says.
So how much weight should a woman gain during pregnancy?
The recommended weight gain is based on her pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI), which compares weight to height. The Institute of Medicine recommends that women of normal weight should gain between 25 to 35 pounds and underweight women should gain 28 to 40 pounds. Overweight women should limit their increase to 15 to 25 pounds and obese women should gain about 15 pounds.
Among women who gain more than the recommended amount, several studies have found significantly higher odds of being overweight a year after delivery. A Cornell University study of nearly 600 rural, white women in upstate New York found that 25 percent of the mothers who gained more than the recommended amount during pregnancy were at least 10 pounds heavier a year after giving birth.
In 2002, a separate study of 775 mothers by the Gundersen Lutheran Health System, a healthcare network in La Crosse, Wis., found that only 34 percent were back to pre-pregnancy weight six months later.
"Excess weight gain and failure to lose weight after pregnancy are important and identifiable predictors of long-term obesity," writes Dr. Brenda L. Rooney, medical director of community and preventive care services for Gundersen and lead author of the study.
Gaining too much weight can pose serious health problems for both mothers and their babies. Hefty moms-to-be run the risk of developing gestational diabetes, preeclampsia and having complications during delivery. Babies born to overweight mothers are more likely to be premature or have birth defects. A 2003 study published in the journal Pediatrics found that the babies of obese and overweight women faced greater risks of heart abnormalities or other birth defects like cleft palate.
Although national birth weights for single babies have changed little in the last few decades, according to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, some doctors say that excessive weight gain during pregnancy is leading to larger babies and an increased number of Caesarean sections. In 2002, C-sections accounted for a record high 26 percent of all births, according to ACOG.
"I'm harping all day to tell people to eat less in pregnancy," says Dr. Jacques Moritz, director of gynecology at Roosevelt Hospital in New York. "The biggest problem for me in obstetrics is large babies."
Watch the ice cream
Some women who have dieted all their lives may be relieved when they get pregnant, thinking it's finally OK to stop counting calories. But the reality, experts say, is that women need only an additional 100 calories a day during the first trimester and an average of 300 extra calories during the second and third trimesters.
"That isn't much food," says Olson. "It's a big glass of orange juice or skim milk and a peanut butter sandwich."
While some women may dream about downing 300 calories of ice cream, Murkoff cautions that the quality of an expectant mom's diet is especially important because of the extra nutritional needs of the baby.
"If you're really serious about keeping weight within the recommended guidelines, you'll have to be really efficient in your food choices," such as low-fat dairy, lean sources of protein and plenty of whole grains, fruits and vegetables, she says.
Even though doctors are concerned that women stay within the weight guidelines and not pack it on nor restrict too much, the issue of how to monitor a woman's weight during pregnancy is controversial.
In England, women are weighed only at the beginning and end of the pregnancy, with medical experts citing the lack of evidence that monitoring weight promotes healthier births.
But Olson disagrees. "Maybe weight in pregnancy is not a sensitive predictor of infant birth weight, but in a population where obesity is rampant, we need to monitor weight gain of pregnant women from the perspective of promoting long-term healthy weights in women," she says.

Cathay Pacific Airways and Dragonair recognised 29 staff for their extraordinary customer service to passengers at the annual Betsy Awards Presentation Ceremony today.
This year marks the 10th anniversary of the Betsy Awards, an annual programme that expresses the company's appreciation to staff for service excellence beyond the call of duty.
This year's award-winning local and overseas staff demonstrated great care and professionalism towards passengers who were once in need, from medical emergencies to unexpected incidents.
Cathay Pacific Chief Executive Ivan Chu said: "This year, Cathay Pacific is honoured to win 'World's Best Airline' in the annual Skytrax World Airline Awards for the fourth time – the only airline in the world to achieve such a feat. Our frontline staff's efforts to provide service straight from the heart are an important contribution to this achievement. Today's award-winning staff are shining examples of our service philosophy."
This year's top winner was a team of two – New York-based Manager on Duty Christine Hew and Supervisor Phyllis Chan.
Due to poor weather conditions at John F. Kennedy International Airport, the New York-bound CX840 service was diverted to Boston. Christine and Phyllis were asked to provide assistance to the diverted passengers and arrange hotel accommodation for them.
Reckoning that the passengers – especially those who didn't speak English – might encounter difficulties travelling all the way from Boston to New York, Christine and Phyllis decided to go the extra mile by catching a morning flight to Boston and renting a car to drive to the hotel and meet the passengers. After meeting up with the passengers, they handed out apology letters and lent whatever support was needed, including buying diapers and formula for the infants.
Christine and Phyllis stayed in Boston until all the affected passengers had departed for New York.
The staff, who had been working for 24 hours non-stop, received high praise from the passengers for their sincere care and outstanding service.
Other winning acts this year include:

OK, so you're growing some weed in your house, and you need to guard it—totally rational! You could get ten black bears, but shit, you're busy growing and selling all this weed!
Who's going to take care of the bears? Who's going to comb their fur? Feed them? And if someone breaks into your growing den, presumably they've got a gun—do you know how easy it is to shoot a bear? I don't, but I'm guessing pretty easy—and then down goes the bear, and your stash. You know what's smarter? A fucking alligator. Does anyone even know how to kill an alligator? Do you step on it? Strangle it? Too late—your weed-stealing arm just got chomped off.
Some enterprising marijuana farmers had this bright idea, though their 55-pound scaled sentinel ultimately wasn't enough to keep the cops away. [Riverside Press-Enterprise via BoingBoing]

The spelling of some words has been corrected to reflect the spellings in more recent editions of the King James Version of the Bible since the printing of the 1979 edition, such as asswaged to assuaged (Gen. 8:1; Job 16:5, 6) and stedfast(-ly, -ness) to steadfast(-ly, -ness).
Typographical Errors
Adjustments have been made to resolve minor typographical errors in spelling, wording, and punctuation, restoring earlier readings of the text and maintaining the fidelity and integrity of the scriptures.
Study Aids
More than 99 percent of the adjustments are in the study aids. Errors in cross-references, date information, or misquoted text have been resolved in the footnotes, Topical Guide, Bible Dictionary, and triple combination index. Historical or factual information has been corrected and updated. Some entries have been updated such as under "Ahab," item 1, the last sentence "the united forces were defeated by Shalmaneser II" was changed to "the united forces were defeated by Shalmaneser III," the correct historical figure.
A number of adjustments have been made to the layout. The quality of the font and typeface has been improved for clearer reading, title pages were standardized, appendix items were reformatted, the Bible Chronology and Harmony of the Gospels have been given their own sections, and the maps and photos have been improved. See more detailed information on specific sections below.
Doctrine and Covenants and Pearl of Great Price
Since the 1981 edition of the Doctrine and Covenants, historical research, much of it conducted by those working on the Joseph Smith Papers, has led to new information on many of the sections in the Doctrine and Covenants. Adjustments have been made to correct inaccurate facts, to provide more precise dating of many sections, and, in some cases, to supply historical context that better aids in the understanding of the sections.
Additional Questions
- Have adjustments been made in past editions of the Doctrine and Covenants?
Short headings were used in the earliest printed collections of Joseph Smith's revelations, the Book of Commandments (1833) and the Doctrine and Covenants (1835). Section headings have been substantially revised in many editions of the Doctrine and Covenants, particularly those published in 1876, 1921, and 1981.
- How many adjustments have been made in the 2013 edition's section headings of the Doctrine and Covenants?
Adjustments, many of which are very minor, have been made to 78 section headings.
- What types of adjustments have been made in the section headings and in the introduction of the Doctrine and Covenants?
The adjustments fall into three basic categories. First, 38 section headings contain either corrected or more precise dates or locations. Second, factual errors have been corrected or deleted. Finally, historical context has been added or updated for many section headings.
- Why have the references to the History of the Church been deleted?
The parenthetical references to the History of the Church have been deleted in the section headings and in other locations in introductory material. While foundational for our understanding of early Latter-day Saint history, the History of the Church contains historical errors about some sections of the Doctrine and Covenants and is inaccessible to most Church members. In addition, the revised section headings rely on other sources, including the Manuscript History of the Church, early manuscript revelation books, and other sources that are reproduced in the Joseph Smith Papers. Quotations from the Manuscript History of the Church and the History of the Church are collectively referred to in section headings as Joseph Smith's history.
- Why have headings been added for Official Declaration 1 and Official Declaration 2?
Introductions have been added to Official Declaration 1 and Official Declaration 2 to help Church members and others understand the historical context that led to these revelatory statements.
- Why has the Church History Chronology been removed?
The Church History Chronology has been removed so a more comprehensive version could be made available on the Church History website. This will allow for regular updating.
- Where can I learn more about the new historical information in the section headings?
In 2009, the Joseph Smith Papers published photographs and transcriptions of the manuscript revelation books into which early Latter-day Saints copied Joseph Smith's revelations. These manuscript revelation books, which are available to view for free at www.josephsmithpapers.org, have greatly aided in understanding the context of many revelations. In late 2013, the Joseph Smith Papers will publish the first two volumes in its Documents series, which will provide extensive historical introductions and annotations for Joseph Smith's revelations through January 1833. For historical background behind specific adjustments, see Explanations for the Doctrine and Covenants Section Headings.
- Is there any additional information available about the adjustments?
The document available at the top of this page summarizing the adjustments introduced in the 2013 edition offers an abbreviated summary of the adjustments. An expanded version of this document is also available.

Cleveland Park, an upscale neighborhood here in the District of Columbia, might be the last place you would expect appeals to the principles of the free market. It is, after all, the home of what David Brooks once called "Ward Three Morality," an outlook that celebrates government control of the economy. But not always.
Recently an entrepreneur proposed opening a new wine store in Cleveland Park. He sought the support of the advisory neighborhood commission, a local government board, before making his case for a liquor license to DC's Alcohol Beverage Control Board. The most serious opposition to the entrepreneur's plans seems to have come from an existing wine store nearby. According to its attorney, the existing wine store was "a beloved extension of the community." More candidly he noted the new store would offer competition to the existing business. At this point, you might think: the Cleveland Park commission blocked opening of the new business while congratulating themselves on protecting the town from a ruthless "capitalist logic."
Well, not quite. Peter Fonseca, the lawyer for the entrepreneur, reportedly "urged the commissioners to consider free-market principles when making their decision. 'This is America.'" And they did: "Commissioner Richard Rothblum agreed, saying commissioners should not get in the way of free enterprise. 'I don't think we have any place telling people what their business plan should be.'" The commission then voted 8-0 to support the entrepreneur's effort at the Alcohol Control Board. The appeal to "free market principles" seems to have carried the day in Cleveland Park!
Perhaps this is only the beginning. If the free market is desirable for fine wines, why not the auto industry and the banks?

Should you buy a $25 computer? Meet Raspberry Pi
The hottest computer on the market isn't a $1,000-plus decked-out gaming machine. It's actually a bare bones circuit board the size of a credit card. And it costs just $25.
Meet the Raspberry Pi. What's it good for?
For starters, you hook the Pi to an HDTV or digital monitor using HDMI. It can display high-definition videos, browse the Internet, play games or work on spreadsheets.
Sound great! Is it for you, though? Well, it depends.
First, let's look at a bit of history.
The low-cost Raspberry Pi is the brainchild of Eben Upton. In 2006, he was teaching computer science at the University of Cambridge. He found that computers were too expensive and too hard for ordinary users to program.
So, he set out to make a low-cost programming computer. His charitable foundation is working to get Raspberry Pis to kids all over the world. He hopes this will create a new generation of programmers.
Upton expected to sell 10,000 units, tops. So far, it has sold more than a million units and counting. It isn't just schools who want it. Computer programmers and hobbyists around the world are going crazy for it.
So, how can it improve your life?
At a basic level, you can use a Raspberry Pi as a media computer. It's also a capable second PC or a computer for kids. It runs the Linux operating system, which is free and very secure.
There are two models. The Model A ($25) has 256MB of RAM and one USB port. Model B ($35) has 512MB of RAM and adds a second USB connection and an Ethernet port.
Both flavors have an HDMI connection, an audio jack and an RCA video jack. You can add a USB hub to connect a keyboard, mouse and USB Wi-Fi.
The Pi is powered by a 32-bit 700 MHz ARM processor that's roughly equivalent to the performance of a Pentium 2 chip. Upton says the multimedia performance is between a Playstation 2 and Playstation 3. That's enough for most basic computer uses.
To make the Pi operational, you need to supply a 5 volt micro USB power supply. An Android smartphone charger should do the trick. Just be sure to read the label. It needs to provide 700mA or better at 5V. Otherwise the Pi will behave erratically (or won't work at all).
The Pi has no internal storage; it boots from a standard SD card. You can buy a card pre-loaded with a compatible operating system. Or make one yourself by downloading a compatible operating system from the Raspberry Pi website. Of course, you can also hook up an external hard drive.
You should buy a case for the computer. It could get fried if it comes in contact with liquids or conductive metals. Or you can make your own, if you're so inclined. Some people have used LEGO!
Cases, power supplies and other accessories are available from a variety of third-party vendors. The two official U.S. Raspberry Pi sellers — Allied Electronics and Newark — also sell accessories and bundles.
You can use the Raspberry Pi for basic computer functions. Or you can take it to the next level with your own programs.
Python is the programming language of the Raspberry Pi. It's easy to learn but very powerful. You'll be coding in no time!
If you're considering buying, definitely check out the Raspberry Pi website for more information. Read through the instructions and see if it's something you can handle. Be sure to check out the forums for great ideas on ways that you can use it.

|My hubby took this photo from our hotel room
My countdown to my debut novel's release and a chronicle of my attempt to not go stir crazy while waiting. (I post here on Mondays and Fridays. See you then!)
|My hubby took this photo from our hotel room
Why does that view of the lake within a volcano, within a lake, etc. etc. remind me of eggs?
More power!
pure gorgeousness!
Your post gives me nostalgia about the Philippines. I've been around the place you visited, but I've seen the volcano inside another volcano only on cable/TV. Thanks.
Seeing that, I feel......very small. Which is amazing because with all the technology we have today the human race keeps seeing the world as smaller and smaller place.
But really... there are still some things that came make us stare in Wonder. :D
Beautiful! I am always up for a field trip to a volcano and a dream within a dream within a dream.... Nice. Have fun filming the trailer!
Amazing! Now that I've blinked and shut my mouth (momentarily), I can say Taal tells me to pay attention to details. The beauty and power... Wow. Did I already say amazing? :)
You know, I'm ashamed to say this, but I didn't know that, and I live a measly thirty minutes away from it.
Yeah, Taal has always been magical that way. I like the C.Nolan bit, lol! Anyway, I'm stopping by to tell you that I just 'shone a light' on you this Sunday---http://www.joypagemanuel.com/2011/04/hopping-and-shining-light.html
----(not that you need more lights. You're a star but what the hell! LOL!)
What beauty. Now following you from Joy's Shining the Light Sunday. Amazing vaca.
Wow! Great field trip! I love my visits to your site! Thanks for the beautiful pictures!
I've never visited a volcano before Samantha, that was really neat! I enjoyed the boatride and everything! Thanks for an awesome experience.
Very nice! You live in a part of the world that I love and miss...
Wow wow wow! Those pictures were amazing! Next time can I go on the field trip for real?
Wow! Taal looks amazing :) :) Love the last misty photo. :)
Locke - I know why, but I can't tell ;-)
EQ - Thank you!
Dezmond - Glad you liked it! :D
Diana - You've been here? So cool!
Christina - My thoughts exactly! it's nice to be in awe of something. :D
Stacey - Thanks! We had fun filming the trailer within a trailer too ;-)
Kenya - Would you believe that just as I posted this blog, they raised the alert level at Taal? They're actually telling people to evacuate. YIKES.
Kate - Getting to the crater's quite an adventure. It's a loooong hike. You should try it! (But not now. Hehe)
Joy - Thanks for shining light my way, my friend!
TV's Take - Thanks for stopping by!
Kathy - Thank you! So happy you liked the pics!
Elizabeth - Glad you enjoyed the trip!
MuMuGB - Don't worry. Your vacay is just around the corner :D
Wall-to-wall - Shall I book your ticket now? ;-)
Jade - It's really a lovely place - perfect for a quick weekend getaway :D
Absolutely stunning! My Hubby and I are turning into volcano freaks, and we would love to go on a field trip to Taal. Hope you had a wonderful trip.
Beautiful photos! Thanks for passing by at Mom's Tree House. I'm your newest follower and will be back soon to visit. : )
Great prompt, Sam! And a great way to showcase Taal, which is now, just minutes from Manila.
My question to you is, have you ever swam in the lake surrounding the volcano? I have. There is a very mysterious quality to it.
Wait, now my typing fingers are itching...
The prompt is working.
Most definitely! To stare in awe of the world around us is to see the infinite beauty in it.
How very cool.
I was born in the Philippines. I need to make a trip back.
The T-shirt made me laugh out loud!
The canoe ride across the lake and the hours-long hike (behind a horse's butt) up to the top to look down on the crater are among the most memorable experiences of our homecoming back in '98. I lost the crown from my front tooth; I was laughing so hard! It's a wonder I managed to catch it and not leave it at the bottom of the lake.
Wonderful photos! Loved the field trip. :)
What an incredible volcano! With its lake within a volcano within a lake, etc, it made me think about the multiple layers of an onion, or about the nuanced layers of personality.
Just beautiful, Sam. What would it be like to swim in that water surrounding it - and how deep is it? (Mysteriously deep, I imagine...)
You have the coolest field trips ever! I had never heard of Taal before. I am off now to look it up. It looks gorgeous. I was just watching a video about Versuvius. You must have been reading my mind!!
That's amazing.
Makes me realize how much of the world I haven't seen.
Vinobaby - Thanks! We did! Taal should be on everyone's bucket list :)
Johanna - Hi! Great to see you here! Thanks for swinging by from the treehouse.
Mieke - Wow! I hiked up to the crater but didn't go swimming. I must try that!
Christina - Amen! :D
Florida Girl - How cool is that?! Do let me know if you ever find yourself in this part of the world again.
Scrollwork - Hahaha! That would have been some offering to the volcano gods. LOL.
Julie - Yay! Glad you liked it :)
Susan - My thoughts exactly! :D
Deborah - Hmm. Good question! I have to google that :D
Dafeenah - Vesuvius is one of the settings in Before Ever After! :D
Jennifer - It's also a great place if you love food. Lots of wonderful and charming restaurants in the area :)
Did you actually go to Tagaytay AFTER they raised the alert level of Taal because of the volcanic activity? You are a brave one.
Hahaha! No way! We went before the alert! :D
God does good work : D That is truly amazing!
Amen, Bev! :D
Hi Sam! so is it really going to explode anytime soon? Or it's just overrated on the news?
There was really an alert, but nothing happened. Thank God! :)

Mario and Luigi embark on the adventure of their dreams in a hilarious action RPG that combines the resort world of Pi'illo Island with the wild landscapes of Luigi's imagination, where anything can happen. Meet a host of hilarious characters as you strive to rescue Princess Peach and help Prince Dreambert free his petrified Pi'illo people from the bat-king Antasma's curse.
One day in the Mushroom Kingdom, a letter arrives from a mysterious Dr. Snoozemore, inviting Mario, Luigi and Princess Peach to Pi'illo Island. A free vacation, from a complete stranger? What could possibly go wrong? Leap into the world of Luigi's dreams - where anything can happen - in this hilarious action RPG.
When Luigi naps, a portal to the Dream World appears - and you're plunged into the wild landscapes of Luigi's imagination! In this fantastical land, Mario teams up with Dreamy Luigi, the hero Luigi always knew he could be. Together, Dreamy Luigi and Mario must continue the quest to free the petrified Pi'illo Folk.
Interacting with sleeping Luigi in the real world can have a big impact in the Dream World. Sometimes one of these special moves is exactly what you need to get past a seemingly insurmountable obstacle.
You can never have too many Luigis! A big group of Luigis, called Luiginoids, appears when you interact with Luigi-shaped star constellations in the Dream World. These acrobatic heroes can morph into different shapes to help Mario keep moving.
Unleash a Luiginary Attack and watch as Mario, Dreamy Luigi, and the Luiginoids pull off some spectacular - and powerful - moves.
Stretching across both Nintendo 3DS screens, Giant Battles pit the Bros. against gigantic foes in a colossal fight to the finish!
To save Princess Peach and the Pi'illo Folk, Mario and Luigi must tackle puzzles and take on enemies in both the real world and the Dream World.In the real world, the brothers always stick together - and you control them both as they run, jump, and battle their way through ever-changing environments on Pi'illo Island.
Besides their standard abilities such as running and jumping, Mario and Luigi use special bro-based moves to take on any obstacle.
Luckily for Mario and Luigi, they've got a secret weapon: Bros. Attacks. These supercharged moves dish out a huge amount of damage.To unlock Bros. Attacks, just look for Attack Pieces hidden around each area of Pi'illo Island - find a complete set of ten and you'll get a new Bros. Attack to use in battle. They cost Bro Points, though, so use them wisely!
An invitation to visit Pi'illo Island seems like too good an opportunity to pass up. But Mario's soon called upon to do what he does best: Save the day! This time, he has to battle enemies both in the real world - and the wacky world of Luigi's imagination.
When Luigi sleeps on one of the island's stone pillows, a magical portal to the Dream World appears. And in Luigi's dreams, a Dreamy Luigi teams up with Mario. With special attack and dreamy new abilities, this is Luigi as you've never seen him before.
It wouldn't be a real adventure for Mario and Luigi if Princess Peach didn't end up in trouble! Try as she might to enjoy the trip to Pi'illo Island, she's soon kidnapped by a mysterious force and taken to the Dream World.
It wouldn't be the same without Bowser, so it's a good thing he turns up to Pi'illo Island, too - univited, of course. He's pretty peeved when he finds out someone else has kidnapped Princess Peach!
Prince Dreambert is the prince of the trapped Pi'illo Folk. He needs Mario and Luigi's help to save his people from a stony fate as petrified pillows.
This evil bat king was once trapped in the Dream World by the Pi'illo Folk but he used the last of his power to turn the Pi'illo folk into petrified pillows. Now he's back and ready to take revenge on those who sealed him away.

Ragnar Kjartansson | A Lot of Sorrow | KÖNIG GALERIE FINAL SHIRT LACONIA SALE LACONIA SHIRT | 27.6.–23.8.2015
with Ragnar Kjartansson, Ragnar Kjartansson & The National
LACONIA SHIRT SALE FINAL SHIRT LACONIA Press Release:
On view downstairs, under the repeated rhythms of Sorrow, Kjartansson's most recent series of paintings is on show. Die Nacht der Hochzeit, watercolours of dark starry skies, and A Lot of Sorrow are both comprised of ever varying repetitions of the same subject. Painting and drawing is an essential part of Kjartansson's practice, despite being best known for his large scale durational performances and video works. These include a twelve hour performance of the last aria of Mozart's Wedding of Figaro and a six month performance of doing a new painting every day of a young male model in a palazzo on the Canal Grande at the Venice Biennial. In his paintings and drawings Kjartansson employs the performative, often repeating the same subject en pleine air, luring out a soothing melancholia of longing and loss. Previous series include Raging Pornographic Sea, countless drawings of the sea he did with his father and Reflections from Room 413, five painted self portraits from 24 hours spent in a hotel room.Dress Casual Couture Boutique Lucca winter xqBnwfSR
Ragnar Kjartansson (b. 1976) lives and works in Reykjavík. He has had solo exhibitions at institutions including the New Museum, New York, Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary, Vienna, the Migros Museum für Gegenwartskunst, Zurich, Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo, Turin, Hangar Biococca, Milan, Frankfurter Kunstverein, and the BAWAG Contemporary, Vienna.The National consists of vocalist Matt Berninger fronting two pairs of brothers: Aaron (guitar, bass, piano) and Bryce Dessner (guitar), and Scott (bass, guitar) and Bryan Devendorf (drums). Their first full-lengths The National and Sad Songs For Dirty Lovers preceded their signing to Beggars Banquet in 2004. Alligator (2005) raised their profile as The National grew into an incendiary live band. Boxer (2007) sold over three times as many copies as its predecessor and saw them transformed from underground stars into a rock institution. High Violet (2010) released on 4AD brought the band global critical and commercial success.A Lot of Sorrow took place at MoMA PS1, as part of Sunday Sessions.Courtesy of the artist, Luhring Augustine, New York & i8 gallery, Reykjavik.A joint project by KÖNIG GALERIE and Berliner Festspiele / Foreign Affairs.
