Dubbed as "The gateway to Paradise" Port of Roxas is the transient point for local and foreign tourist, vacationers and backpackers, who want to travel in an inexpensive way to reach Caticlan- the jump-off point to the world class beach resorts of Boracay Island.
Named after the late President Manuel Roxas, this town was formerly known as "Paclasan" originally part of the town of Bulalacao in the province of Oriental Mindoro-but later on transferred as barrio in Mansalay, before it got its present status.
The town of Roxas is accessible by all types of vehicles from the Southern and Northern parts of island via the national road. It is approximately 148 kilometers, or no less than three hours drive on a scenic and smooth road to and from the City of Calapan (jump-off point to Batangas City).
It is bounded in the north by the town of Bongabong; Tablas Strait in the east, the town of Mansalay in the south, and in the west is the portion of the town of Bongabong and Mansalay.
Roxa's top industries includes Tourism, Agri-businesses, Aquaculture, and Transport services (shuttle buses and for-hire vans ferries locals, and tourist alike to and from the City of Calapan); and because of the continuous influx of travelers and cargoes transiting in this once laid back community, several commercial establishments mushroomed. This once sleepy town turned into a booming town and is fast urbanizing-it became a haven for Commerce and Eco-tourism businesses. Thanks to the development of the RORO Port and its inclusion in the Western Nautical Highway it definitely created positive growth.
PORT OF ENTRY: Port of Roxas
Located in Barangay Dangay, approximately one (1) kilometer from town proper. Its geographical coordinates consist of;
Roxas Port form part of Philippine Ports Authority's Strong Republic Nautical Highway (SRNH) project. Western Nautical Highway is consists of the RORO Ports in:
- Batangas
- Calapan, Oriental Mindoro
- Brgy. Dangay, Roxas Oriental Mindoro
- Caticlan, Malay Aklan
- Dumangas, Iloilo
- Bredco Port, Bacolod
- Dumaguete Negros Oriental
- Dapitan, Zamboanga del Norte
SRNH's Western Nautical project facilitated the South/North bound movement of people and goods from Batangas City all the way down to Dapitan City, and vice versa. Data from sources say's that from 2003 to 2006, vehicular traffic in Roxas Port increased to 46,218 from 9,269. During early year's of port's existence only one registered RO-RO company operating in between Caticlan-Roxas route; but by 2006 it reaches to three roro/ferry operators. To date, shipping operators grew to four with seven vessels sailing back and forth round the clock, to capitalize the steady passenger and vehicle traffic in between this two ports especially during peak season.
TMO Roxas is under the jurisdiction of Port Management of Calapan. Their facilities includes a 7,270 sq. meters of well fenced lot area. Past the entrance gate is a building that houses the Office of PPA-TMO Roxas; inside the modern and air-conditioned Passenger Terminal is the waiting lounge complete with amenities such feeding area for breastfeeding mothers, diaper changing area, hot and cold water dispenser, cable television, and of course clean comfort room (that was clean when I used it). A food kiosk for hungry travelers are also available upstairs.
Roxas Port have a two 9×9 meter fixed protruding ramp with depth of 4.5 meters designed to accommodate roro vessels. It also has berthing space for large motorized outrigger banca that ferries passengers in the nearby Tablas Island's capital Odiongan (approximate distance of 30 nautical miles), for minimum fare of 335 pesos per person one way.
Port of Roxas has secured parking provision for travelers called Park and Sail, so much like the one in Manila Domestic Airport. Travelers from Manila or Batangas who brought their vehicles here but doesn't wish to bring it to Caticlan, have an option to leave it at the port's secured parking area for a fee of not less than 40 pesos per hour.
On the other hand, President Benigno Aquino III issued on the 14th February 2014, an Executive Order nos. 158-declaring and delineating Roxas Port Zone, and placing it under the administrative jurisdiction of the Philippine Ports Authority. (1)
Caticlan Jetty Port by the way is approximately 47 nautical miles from here, a four hours sailing for a minimum fare of 400 pesos per person one way. The following are shipping companies and their corresponding vessels that plies between Roxas and Caticlan (note: vessel departs every hours at most, from early in the morning until late evening).
- Montenegro Shipping's M/V Reina Timotea, M/V Reina Del Cielo, and M/V Reina de los Angeles.
- Starlite's M/V Starlite Atlantic
- Asia Marine's M/V Super Shuttle Ferry 18
- Navios Lines M/V Grand Unity
- Orange Navigation's Roro Master 3

I would love to tell you that it's nothing but pure joy when I accompany my twin boys to their friends' birthday parties but I'd be lying.
At a recent classmate's birthday party, the other moms all sat around the edge of the room while the designated party helper circled the kid's table with a cart full of soda, pouring on demand. She reached my 7-year-old twin boys and asked them what they'd like to drink.
"I'll have some water, please," they both echoed in a rare display of twin-like unison.
"Oh." The teenage girl sounded a bit surprised that children were opting for water over the plethora of sugary sodas. "Well, do you want a soda, too? I have Sprite, Coke, Orange, Root Beer…" And with that, my son Jack looked up to me and said, "Mom, can we have soda?"
Despite the fact that my children have never had a soda in their lives, I didn't freak out and shout "NO! What are you thinking? That stuff will poison your insides!" because I was prepared for this moment. Instead, I told my sons that they could have the soda but it would be their "treat of the party" and it was their call to make. Both boys knew what that meant because our family has a rule for junk food at parties and special events: pick any one treat — it can be the birthday cake, the ice-cream, a cupcake from the buffet table, a juice box, or in this case, the soda. But it can only be one. My husband and I try our best to teach our kids (and ourselves!) that it's okay to indulge once in a while but that it's important to limit that indulgence and to really stop and enjoy the treat you've chosen. In this circumstance, both boys decided the birthday cake looked more appealing than the soda and politely asked for water.
The other moms around me looked on in absolute amazement. Their eyes wide and jaws dropped, they couldn't believe my children had opted for water over soda and were shocked to hear that they have never had soda before. After doing my best to explain our reasons for not drinking soda or juice without sounding like a total judgemental jerk, the women inevitably came out with the most common question I get when people find out our family doesn't eat processed food.
"Well, that's great but what happens when they're older and can eat whatever they want?"
It's a valid question but also a silly one. As all clean eaters will tell you, eating a diet full of unprocessed food makes you feel good. No scratch that, it makes you feel amazing. Kids are no exception to this. As our boys get older, they are becoming more and more aware of the effects of junk food and when we do allow them to have it, the boys now connect the sugar rushes, the mood swings, and the sore tummies with the junk food they've eaten. Knowledge is power and the simple awareness of this is often enough for kids to continue eating clean for their adult lives. We also believe the best way of preventing the "forbidden fruit" syndrome is to provide enough boundaries to keep our kids safe but just enough choice to empower them in making good choices on their own.
It warms my heart to hear parents teach their kids that junk food, like birthday cake and pizza, are only for special occasions. I hope we can all agree on that. But I challenge you to take this one step further. When it comes time for those special occasions, why not teach our children that moderation is key? Why not teach ourselves the same thing?
So many of us justify "special occasions" as a guilt-free binge session. Take the birthday party example: a child who perhaps eats quite healthy at home is granted the party's two-hour window to eat whatever they want. They fill up on processed food (cake, ice-cream, chips), sugary beverages (soda, sugar-added "fruit" juice, gatorade) and all sorts of frankenfoods (where every ingredient is man-made and formulated in a lab) until they're sick to their stomach. This is not a healthy approach to food.
There will come a day very soon when our kids will make all of these decisions without us hovering over them and while it's wiser to teach them that junk food is only for special occasions and not as an every day food, I worry that we're doing harm by conditioning them that in those "special occasions", it's okay to devour whatever crosses your path without thought.
Maybe you hear that cautionary voice inside telling you that your family should be eating better. If so, I encourage you to take the first step! Here's some first steps for you to consider:
- Adopt our family's rule of "one treat per party"
- Reading food labels
- Going for a family walk once a week
- Tracking your own calories to understand where your body's fuel (aka food) is coming from - we love to use My Fitness Pal
Whatever it is, the first step is always the hardest. But I promise you, whether it's eating cleaner, exercising more, or just being aware of how many calories you're eating, the step after that will be a little bit easier. And then the one after that is easier still! And before you know it, you will have overhauled your lifestyle, you will love your body, and you will have habits that are worth passing on to your kids! Your spouse, your family, and the rest of the nation could sure benefit from your good example.

That's a great story. I can only imagine the fine you walked while trying to explain your beliefs as the other Mom's let their kids chow down on junk food. I admire you and agree that if your kids develop a taste for healthy food in the beginning they will probably stick with it. I Also like the idea of family walks. Interesting post - good "food" for thought.

A four storey ultra-modern shopping mall in Benin City, the Edo State capital popularly known as Phil Hallmark located along Sapele Road has been razed by fire.
Scores of sympathizers including Governor Godwin Obaseki, lawmakers in the Edo State House of Assembly and political bigwigs in the state have visited the scene to commiserate with the owner, Mr Philip Edigin.
The burnt mall which is the only ultra modern shopping mall in Benin is known as the 'Shoprite' of the state capital. Sources said the fire started at about 12 midnight and lasted till about 8am Sunday morning when the fire was finally put out.
Goods worth billions of naira were destroyed in the fire as all the four floors, including an extension used for administrative purposes were affected, Employees of the firm were seen around discussing what would become of them especially during the Yuletide celebration.Some fire service men who pleaded anonymity said preliminary investigation showed that the fire was caused by an inverter that was wrongly connected.
Governor Obaseki who was at the scene at about 9am expressed shock that the State Fire Service claimed that they could not respond on time because of lack of materials like diesel, the Governor said investigation would be conducted into the activities of the state fire service to ascertain their level of preparedness for disaster.
According to him" This incident happening at this time of the year is a catastrophe. I have asked for written report and investigation into the cause of the fire. We will also investigate the claim by an official of the state Fire service on the allegation of lack of equipment.
"Because I understand that trucks were distributed by the NDDC and the State Government during the last administration".
Managing Director of the Super Mart, Mr Philip Edigin, told the Governor that all efforts to get the State fire service to come to their rescue proved abortive as the fire service told him they have no diesel to work.
Mr. Edigin said help came from the Nigeria Air force fire service, IDSL NPDC and UNIBEN and that the State fire service came at about 6am.
A supervisor in the State Fire Service, Mr. Franklin Agbonlahor appealed to government for urgent upgrade of facilities and equipment of the fire service station.
The lawmaker representing Egor constituency in the House of Assembly, Crossby Eribo said, "It is very sad. Even if we had a very good and controllable fire service, it still would have been very difficult because it is large shopping mall.It is a massive loss at this festive period when people are trying to shop with the recession. In fact, I was in tears when I came."
One of the staff said he heard about the incident through the radio and he was shocked when he resumed office to see that it was Phill Hallmark. He said:
"When I came down to the place, it was very terrible. It was still burning then and everybody was shouting.It is a big supermarket, Nobody was expecting it; many of us were even supposed to resume after church.
He then said he thought there was a wrong connection, that there was an inverter there and it was not connected well and it might has caused the fire"

Editors' Notebook
Join Us for On Target Webinar
I can say with high confidence that no media outlet has covered the launch of Roundup Xtend soybeans, and the complicated and sometimes controversial news on the dicamba products formulated to use with them, as DTN/The Progressive Farmer. Our Crops and Technology Editor Pam Smith has essentially "owned" this subject for close to two years now.
So we're pleased to partner with herbicide manufacturer BASF to host a free webinar, May 4 at noon CDT, to discuss the latest information on using these new dicamba herbicides, and in particular BASF's Engenia product, during this initial full use season.
The webinar will feature the guru of herbicide application research, Bob Wolf, who will dig deep into the proper ways to apply these new herbicides to get the best weed control, and just as importantly, to do it safely without drift or other off-target movement. He will cover tank mix issues, nozzles, pressure and sprayer speed, all the details critical to keep these products where they belong, and off your neighbor's sensitive crops and plants. The webinar was created in conjunction with BASF's On Target Application Academy program, which also features Wolf, who has been a leader in sprayer applications for more than 30 years.
There will also be plenty of time for live questions and answers during and at the end of the presentation.
The discussion will also feature BASF Diversified Region Tech Service Manager Dan Westberg who will answer questions specific to Engenia.
Farmers have been anxiously awaiting these new seed trait and herbicide formulation packages, particularly farmers fighting glyphosate-resistant weeds. Seed companies have gone all-out with marketing to get the new soybean and other seeds into farmers' hands this spring. From what we hear, there a lot of acres of the dicamba-resistant seed going in the ground.
This will be our first full season to use this package, and to be blunt, the world is watching. If we are careless, if we have a repeat of the off-target issues seen in some areas in 2016, it's not going to go down well.
So we're glad to see BASF step up to do all it can to educate applicators on the best ways to apply these valuable products.
We know it's deep into the busy planting season, that's why we've scheduled the webinar over the traditional lunch hour so that you can have a reason to take a break and get some brain food along with that meal. The webinar also will be available for later download, should you want to review it again when your spraying begins or should you miss it live on May 4.
The link to registering for the webinar is http://www.dtn.com/…
Hope to see you on the 4th.

Pat Robertson: Vaccines and fluoride work exactly as intended, but should we use them?
Televangelist Pat Robertson suggested parents ought to let nature take its course when it comes to potentially fatal childhood illness such as measles, mumps, and polio.
"I'm sure that there's some serious consequences to measles and perhaps vaccinations is the answer, but I don't think any parent should be forced by the government to vaccinate," he said.
He claimed during the "700 Club" on Tuesday that a friend's mother contracted polio from the vaccine, which he said suggested some immunizations were "not benign," reported Right Wing Watch.
"So far this one about whooping cough and diphtheria and measles has been very effective, and I think it was a good thing to do," Robertson said. "But the problem is, natural immunity is a pretty good thing, and if you have some of these diseases when you're a kid you have immunity the rest of your life."
He also warned against fluoride, another government-mandated health policy that arouses suspicions in some.
"I just think that we've got to be careful that we fall for these nostrums, you know, you have to put fluoride in all of the water because it will cut down on cavities," Robertson said. "But what does fluoride do to people? We don't know some of the consequences, we don't have all of the knowledge we need and we should be very careful not to force people to do stuff that they earnestly feel they shouldn't do."

Happy Anniversary?
The planes, fireballs, falling victims, and collapsing towers have partially faded in our rear view mirror, but eleven years has only begun to heal the wound, and every year on this day we're reminded of our 9/11 national trauma. Like November 22nd and December 7th, September 11 is a date under a shadow for Americans, and it's got to be a tough day for anyone celebrating a birthday or anniversary. It seems almost selfish to celebrate anything today given our respect for the victims, their families and friends, but good things have happened on September 11th, and we should celebrate them.
Six years ago today, my new boss greeted me in her office saying, "Hi, I'm Joyce." I remember doing a bit of a mental eye-roll and thinking, "Of course you are."1. In the years since, we've accomplished quite a bit, and have had fun doing it. She's a great manager, an advocate of our customer experience, the leader of our Workforce Institute, has created thought-leadership content for Kronos, hates to lose and throws a wicked headlock, plus she's the owner of one infectious laugh. (Work)Joyce, as she's now known to keep my Joyce's straight, remains one of the reasons I love coming to work. Oh, and we need more like her, so check out our careers page.
Happy anniversary, (Work)Joyce.
1. Note: I've used these words in another (Blog)life, so to avoid the bizarre "self-plagiarism," I'm citing that use.
September 11, 2012 2:39 pm
And you, my friend, are one of the major reasons that I love working at Kronos! Thanks for the shout out on my anniversary.

Slick After Effects->Flash integration
I'm delighted to see that Drew Trujillo (aka Dr. Woohoo) has released a pair of tools for moving After Effects keyframe data into Flash. Along with a free AE export script, Drew has created After Effects 2 Flash-Transform Properties, a Flash extension that smooths the importing of AE data. You can read more about the tools on his blog. (Note: My role in this is kindly overstated; in fact I just helped people smarter than myself get connected–which, for what it's worth, is what a lot of product management boils down to.)
This kind of integration is, I think, the start of much great progress to come. Back in 1999, when I first heard that Adobe was thinking of making a Web animation tool, I started lobbying my contacts at Adobe & Macromedia for a "Flash Interchange Format" that would enable Flash, AE, and other applications to exchange data with layers, keyframes, object names, and other data intact. The timing wasn't right, of course, but now that the companies have come together, the opportunities to collaborate are incredible. Stay tuned, and in the meantime, give these tools a shot.
(More on Drew's work can be found here.)
[Update: I realized I'd inverted the title. It's now revised to indicate the direction of integration: AE into Flash.]

|Cooler Master MasterLiquid Pro 240. Bedoeld voor: Processor, Geluidsniveau: 6 dB, Geluidsniveau pomp: 12 dB. Stroomverbruik pomp: 6 W, Pomp voltage: 12 V, Pomp stroom: 500 mA.

Feel the Flow
Based on our expertise in thermal technology, we reengineered how liquid absorbs and expels heat throughout the all-in-one (AIO) closed loop of the cooler. Our holistic approach to the flow puts in your hands a comprehensive cooling machine that lasts longer, performs better and requires virtually no maintenance.
FlowOp Technology
Based on our expertise in thermal technology, FlowOp looks at the flow of heat as it is carried and dissipated by an all-in-one (AIO) liquid cooler. Starting with the hot CPU, we reengineered how liquid absorbs and expels that heat. Our holistic approach to the flow of heat puts in your hands a comprehensive cooling machine that lasts longer, performs better and requires virtually no maintenance.
A Dual Approach to Life Expectancy
We stacked an extra chamber on top and engineered it so that cold stuff can go in, but hot stuff can't go back up. The cooler upper chamber is where we store all of the vital components.
"Spraying" the CPU
We grabbed technology from top-end DIY liquid cooling kits to create a powerful pump that sprays liquid directly at the center of the water block, solving the issue of slow flow. It also allows us to mount even more ultra-fine fins on the copper base, creating even more surfaces from which the coolant can take away heat.
Gently Driven
Adding to that effort towards silence, we encased the pump needed to drive that concentrated spray at our CPU with a silent driver. The custom driver rotates way more smoothly than any other technology out there, reducing noisy clicks and vibration. It's like you're using a V8 engine and can't even notice.
Easy Installation
Many of Cooler Master's products are known for their easy installation. To fit our Pro lineup to the motherboard and install fans, all you need to bring are your two hands and a screwdriver.
Spacious Squares for Air
The MasterLiquid's unique square fin design creates greater surface area for absorption of the heat and allows for spacious airflow. The increased space means we can use a quieter fan that pushes air farther out of the case. It's really quiet.
Getting the Heat Outside
The spacious square fins gave us leverage to use all-new MasterFan Pro Air Balance fans. The blades push air farther out of the case and are quieter than high static pressure fans. And they'll last just as long as your liquid cooler.
Who is the MasterLiquid Pro series for?
Water-based cooling solutions are for those who want to push their system. The harder you drive your CPU, the better AIO liquid cooling performs.

Walking yesterday in the warming transient sunshine, it felt as if a welcome waft of spring had arrived. Though the lilac is far from flowering, and the Magnolia isn't yet tempted to burst forth, there were hopeful signs of less grey and less wet! Inspired by the shows of Daffodils, Croci, Wild Violets and Snowdrops I thought i'd share my Wrapping Up For Spring.
M & S have excelled themselves in a particularly beautiful paper edition "Adventures In Spring" (pick up a free copy in the food department of any M&S). There were pages of Spring florals, perfect for wrapping a Birthday present and dressing a pot of Hyacinths. Non flowery pages did not go to waste, and were used for wrapping another couple of gifts.
I complemented the floral loveliness with some artificial pansies (which cleverly disguised some wording), thin gingham ribbon and a luggage tag. I am a big fan of Lamy fountain pens and am adoring the exciting colours of their new ink cartridges. For this label I used violet ink, but i'm desperate to try out the orange and lime green. Oh, i'm all together SO fickle!
Today i'm preparing for a belated Burn's Night which is happening over the weekend. Pipes, drums, addressing the haggis, a quaich of whiskey or two, food with an Italian slant, i'm sure Rabbie will hear us toasting his poetry prowess!
Whatever you are doing this weekend I hope it's going to be enjoyable, and not as ear shatteringly noisy or whiskey laden as mine!

Now for getting Real Live Rocking Dog into the bath!

I am linking up with Kacey for Five for Friday.
1. We tore paper, crumpled it into a ball and threw into the basket.
2. My sister gave me two huge boxes of paint chips and so I have been coming up with some activities to do with these two huge boxes. Make sure to check back soon for some fun ideas!
3. We said the candy poem, counted how many candies and then stamped the number. You can find that here.
We have been practicing counting out objects 1-10.
And one to one correspondence.
4. We made our parents gifts. The morning class just glued the tissue paper and the pm class scrunched it up and glued it on for some extra fine motor practice. You can grab the heart here.
5. We identified the shape on the 'mail' and then we put it in the mailbox.
We also painted with cookie cutter hearts.

What does Etihad Airways new Baggage Policy mean?
Etihad Airways, one of the most preferred airlines recently made some changes to their baggage policy and ensure that "the new policy provides greater convenience and customer benefit while enhancing the travel experience."
FlightsPro.co.uk, as your trusted travel booking partner, welcome the changes and will lay it all down for you in simple points so that when you book your next Etihad Airways Reservation, you have a hassle-free travel.
According to Etihad Spokesperson, "The new system is simpler and will now be based on total weight, rather than the number of checked in bags."
- UK economy travellers to India, Pakistan and Bangladesh, entitled to 46kg have reduced to 30kg — unless they book a "flex" ticket, in which case the limit is 35kg.
- For the travellers booking discount tickets to key destinations in Africa including Johannesburg, Lagos and Nairobi, the baggage allowance of 46kg cases is halved to 23kg.
- On a return flight from Heathrow or Manchester to any African destination, a second 23kg bag will cost $1,280 (£904), plus a further 25 per cent if paid at the airport.
- For the travel beginning in Africa, the allowance remains 40kg allowed for all economy passengers.
- For the Premium passengers, travelling in both – business and first-class, the baggage allowance had decreased. While the former can get 40kg, the latter can now take up to 50kg.
- For the people travelling in the "The Residence" on the upper deck of Airbus A380 jets, will still be allowed 128kg.
In the other news, airline like US airline and Delta are also on their way to eliminate the free baggage allowance for "Basic Economy" passengers flying from the UK to the US from 10 April onwards.
For more detailed information on Etihad Airways Baggage Allowance, we would suggest you to talk to your flight professionals on toll free lines – 0800 048 8880 or 0208 396 7200

In the wake of news about his future as an astronaut, Hibito has simply gone missing without a word to anybody - a state of affairs which might be more worrying for Mutta were it not an occurrence that he's had to deal with before while growing up with his brother.
Nevertheless, it's a worrying turn of events that naturally distracts Mutta from his all-important CAPCOM training, which in turn earns him something of a dressing down from Bold. Determined though he is to follow his dream, Hibito's whereabouts are still Mutta's primary concern no matter how much he tries to hide his worry to those around him.
As time goes by with still no word from his brother, this sense of concern spreads to Butler himself, who calls Mutta to see if he can shed any light on Hibito's whereabouts while also informing him of the full extent of the situation - even with four respected astronauts petitioning to put Hibito back on the roster for future space missions, it seems that programme manager Gates is still having none of it. As the situation gets all the more hopeless, is Hibito going to return at all? Well, he only has one episode left to do so...
Having had Space Brothers at the heart of my weekly viewing for two years now, it's sad but not entirely shocking to hear of it coming to an end (for now, at least), but beyond that this was a bit of a slow-burning episode that never quite managed to latch on to any real sense of worry about Hibito's disappearance - there was no urgency to anybody's actions for the most part, and the entire thing felt a little odd. Hopefully the series can at least end with the resolution of this story, while leaving plenty of scope for the show to return in the future - something that, much like Hibito, I most certainly hope it does.

Vancouver Skeleton Automatic
The ES-8075 commemorates the career and travels of Captain George Vancouver. Vancouver was a British officer of the Royal Navy, best known for his 1791–95 expedition, which explored and charted North America's northwestern Pacific Coast regions, including the coasts of contemporary Alaska, British Columbia, Washington, and Oregon.
Most famously the island and city of Vancouver in British Columbia, Canada is named after him. Vancouver used a famous Longcase regulator clock on board his journeys which helped him chart the Pacific Northwest for the first time between 1791 and 1795. This same regulator would also serve Captain Matthew Flinders on his epochal journey to circumnavigate and chart the Australian continent in 1801 to 1803.

Today was the 47th birthday of former Habs captain and assistant coach Kirk Muller. It was a blow to the Canadiens when Muller was not kept on in the coaching system, however, Kirk deserved more. He is currently head coach of the Carolina Hurricanes.
The Canadiens had an optional skate this morning after playing back-to-back games against the Boston Bruins and Buffalo Sabres. Those missing from the practice: Prust, Gionta, Gorges, Bourque, Bouillon, Diaz, Emelin and Markov as well as Therrien. It would have been nice to have clinched at least one victory in those two games but they have to focus on tomorrow against the Leafs.
Chris Campoli, a late signing by the Canadiens last season, has finally found work but not in North America. He will head to Switzerland to play for Genève-Servette in the NLA. Campoli played a big part during the lockout but will not be taking part in the new CBA, at least for now. Kind of surprising considering the teams that need help on the blue line, however, I bet many recall his blunder while with Chicago in the playoffs as well as his most recent play with the Habs.
According to TSN's John Lu, Michel Therrien and Ryan White met early in the morning but what was discussed was not revealed by either of them. It is unknown whether or not White will dress for the game against Toronto but many fans and some media believe it is unlikely that he plays. If he does not make it into the line up, he will have to be back at some point to redeem himself. White will learn from his mistakes.
From the CHC Foundation, if you're attending the game tomorrow – bring a new or used pair of skates and you have a chance to win a great prize. Also, if you haven't yet but would still like to donate $27.00 to receive a Galchenyuk tuque, do so here before the end of the month.
Two scouts from the Edmonton Oilers' organization were in attendance at Copps Coliseum in Hamilton for the Bulldogs vs Wolves game. Their AHL affiliate, the Barons, do not play the Bulldogs until April. Hamilton lost 3-0 against Vancouver's affiliate, Chicago, a game that seemed lost in the opening minutes. The Bulldogs looked like a completely different team from the one that defeated the Marlies at Ricoh on Wednesday.
In addition, Marty Lapointe was behind the bench for the Bulldogs as Ron Wilson was let go not too long ago. Also, Morgan Ellis won Bulldogs "Top Shots" shooting accuracy competition for the season.
Saku Koivu is having a good start to the season for the Anaheim Ducks. The Gazette's Dave Stubbs caught up with him, which you can read here. I am one of those fans who would love to see Saku back in Montreal one day, even if that meant pulling a Modano just so he retires as a Canadien. Make it happen Bergevin.
On the show TLMEP (Tout le monde en parle) last sunday, Therrien was asked to describe his players in 1-3 words. This is what he had to say:
Price – Maturity, Pacioretty – Power, Eller – Needs supervision, Gionta – Leader, Bouillon – Heart, Diaz – Surprise, Desharnais – Important player, Gallagher – Warrior, Plekanec – Intelligent, Kaberle – Depth (with a lot of laughs), Prust – Warrior, Subban – Challenge, Markov – General, Galchenyuk – Future, Gorges – Leader, Bergevin – Righteousness and Therrien – Competitor.
Do you agree with his assessment?
Hockey Helps presents Habs Brandon Prust on February, 15th. Want details? Check it out.
The second episode of the 24CH series will air tomorrow (the 9th) on RDS at 6pm ET and repeated at 10:30pm. It is only a half an hour long.
Both the Canadiens and Leafs will have their morning skates at the Bell Centre; closed to the public.
If you went to the Bulldogs-Wolves game or you had tickets but could not make it, your ticket can be redeemed for the March 10th game against Grand Rapids. The Bulldogs will start redeeming those tickets on Monday.
Prospects Update:
– Archambault collected two assists and a minor penalty Drummondville's 4-3 loss.
– Dietz had a strong night, finished with two goals, one assist, a minor penalty and a +2 rating.
– Hudon racked up 4PIM as Chicoutimi was shutout 5-0, he is pointless in the last 4 matches.
– Thrower had a -1 rating in Saskatoon's victory over Swift Current.
– Bennett tallied an assist and a -3 rating in Michigan's loss.
– Cichy stays even for the third game in a row.
– Didier didn't record a point and stayed even in his team's tie.
– Kristo had a goal and an assist with a +2 rating against Nebraska.
– MacMillan remained even in North Dakota's 2-1 win.
– Schultz had an assist.
Someone wake Erik Cole up, it's a short season. Drive the net.
It is needless to say that Carey Price is on a team that simply does not capitalize on his abilities. The Habs are on the verge of missing the playoffs for the third straight year. And while the injuries and bad calls are valid excuses for their current losing streak, there are plenty of errors […]

Paul Joseph Watson Crushes The Hypocrisy Of The Left And Their "Temper Tantrum"
Earlier today, Paul Joseph Watson posted the following epic video in which he systematically destroys the utter hypocrisy of the left for, among other things, failing to denounce the violent riots flaring up across the country in response to Trump's victory. The whole video is a must see but below is just a small selection of our favorite quotes:
"After weeks of taunting Trump supporters, over Trump's suggestion that he might not immediately accept the election results, Hillary voters came together preached the message of unity and graciously accepted Donald Trump's victory. Oh no, they actually rioted, attacked people in the street and threatened to kill Donald Trump and his supporters.""All year they denounced us as being hateful and intolerant. And what's the first thing they do after the election? Engage in rampant hateful intolerance.""Seriously, has anyone told you people you can't change the outcome of democratic election by throwing a temper tantrum.""Your behavior is why Trump won in the first place. Do you understand that yet?"

Trump is under a lot of pressure right now to take advice from people who represent the deepest and darkest interests
There are powers bigger than just the president, and as SHTFPlan.com's Mac Slavo writes, Trump is under a lot of pressure right now to take advice from people who represent the deepest and darkest interests at work in foreign policy. America will be undergo a tremendous test in the next term, as terrorism, war, a divided population and the global economy all threaten to explode on his watch, leaving the situation open to exploit by the advisors and appointees of the Deep State, and the secret societies that create and steer world affairs.After decades as a billionaire businessman, Trump is finally playing ball in the big leagues, and that means some very serious characters at work in and around his office of power.If Trump thinks he's now the big boss, he'd better be very careful and watch his back. History has a lot to say about JFK's assassination – because it concerns his attempt to oust the shadow powers from his administration.
Ron Paul on Trump's Election: Beware of the Shadow Government
Originally published at The Daily Sheeple.
Former congressman and presidential candidate Ron Paul appeared on RT to talk about the election of Donald Trump as president, and he voiced major skepticism on whether Trump will actually follow through on many of his campaign promises.
Paul referenced Trump's independence as being a political outsider and that this possibly could have a more favorable outcome than we might have seen with Hillary Clinton in the Oval Office. However, he notes that we cannot determine what plans for Trump's presidency the shadow government might have. Speaking of this secret power structure, he said:
You know, we look at the president, we look at what he said, we look at what he might do, and we look at his advisors, but quite frankly, there is an outside source, which we refer to as a deep state or a shadow government. There is a lot of influence by people that are actually more powerful than our government itself, our president and on up. I mean, you take for instance how our government gets involved in elections around the world, whether it's in the Middle East or Ukraine.
Paul is not particularly pleased with the war-driven neoconservatives who are beginning to surround Trump. "Unfortunately, there has been several neoconservatives that are getting closer to Trump. And if he gets his advice from them then I do not think that is a good sign," he said. "During the campaign, he did talk a little bit about backing off and being less confrontational to Russia and I like that. He criticized some of the wars in the Middle East at the same time. He believes we should accelerate the war against ISIS and terrorism."
Paul thinks that the Wikileaks release of the nearly 60,000 hacked Podesta emails is what ultimately secured Trump to the presidency, but he thinks that the hidden power structure is brewing something in the background to maintain their dominion over the US presidency. "Yes, Trump is his own guy, more so than most of those who have ever been in before. We hope he can maintain an independence and go in the right direction. But I fear the fact that there is so much that can be done secretly, out of control of our apparent government and out of the view of so many citizens," he cautioned.
Paul does not have high hopes that Trump will follow through on his campaign promise to disengage from the NATO alliance. He expects that Trump's intentions as president will become clear once we see who he appoints to his cabinet.

The Lost Jubile
In the past twenty-five articles we have looked at the Jubilee year from both Jewish and Christian perspectives to examine whether God might be restoring to the world, an identification of the Jubilee calendar as described in Leviticus Chapter 25.
This article examines whether recent "upset events" like Trump's win and the Brexit can help us identify whether a Jubilee is here.
Remember! Jubilee is the largest systematic social reconstruction tool in the Bible, short of the inauguration of Messianic rule at the end of the age. It is a divine reset of the land every 50th year, that gives the poorest of the land a chance to restart their lives in a new direction. Slaves are set free. People who have sold, given away, and even been tricked out of their most precious possession—their own land—get it back.
In the economies of ancient times, it was not God's but man's "golden rule" that always prevailed: those who have the gold make the rules. Thus the rich and powerful made sure that they could stay that way (short of a populist revolt), and the poor were managed and frequently abused by their rulers in a way that would skew ever more of the available resources to those at the top.
But the Jubilee was God's invention to systematically and periodically uproot this human tendency, giving every family of the earth the chance, at least once in their lifetimes, to be part of a grand reset: to move in a new direction and gain economic success.
image: http://www.breakingisraelnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/reset-icon-1.jpg
In this series, we have asked whether God might be in the process of restoring the Jubilee to the world. That process, we reasoned, should begin by restoring the Jubilee calendar itself, and indeed there seems to be a striking pattern exhibited through a series of key events that have occurred in a 50-year cycles, most notably relating to the nation of Israel, but even extending to the rest of the world. We have pointed out the pattern of events in late 1917 (the Balfour Declaration and the retaking of Jerusalem by the British), and the events in the spring of 1967 (The Six Day War and the Reunification of Jerusalem) were so startling that we said in this series that we have to watch the events of 2016/2017 to see whether God might do something important in the nation of Israel. We said that on the Hebrew Calendar, the period we would first examine should be the Jewish year of 5776 (roughly September 2015 thru October 2016), and on a Gregorian calendar we must watch thru the end of 2017.
This particular article looks at the evidence for a Jubilee year ending in 5776, a year that is now fully in the books.
Has there been clear evidence of Jubilee-like events in the year of 5776 in Israel?
Our view is that everything begins with Israel, so we must look there first.
Yes, there has been one big decision within the nation of Israel that is Jubilee like – the restoration of land to the Jewish people. On Sunday April 17, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took his cabinet across the Jordan river to the Golan Heights and declared that the future status of the Golan Heights within Israel had been irrevocably decided: the Golan will be forever part of Israel – that the Golan is now to Israel what Jerusalem is to Israel.
image: http://www.breakingisraelnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Golan-Heights.jpg
While we had desired to see Jews becoming completely free to pray on the Temple Mount, and that did not change officially, the change in status in the Golan was the most notable change of its kind since 1967. This is the first time that the nation of Israel has formally annexed land on the Eastern side of the River Jordan in its modern history! It is the number one reason why 5776 can be considered a Jubilee year.
Has there been any clear evidence of Jubilee-like events in the year of 5776 in the world at large?
Yes, the Brexit vote of the United Kingdom on June 23, 2016. It seems fitting that the very nation that helped propel the establishment of a Jewish homeland in 1917 should itself be set free from the clutches of the European Union in the Hebrew calendar year of 5776. The separation of Britain from the EU was also coupled with the changing of power and the appointment of Theresa May as Prime Minister of England, a pro-Israel one at that. The UK is now free to chart its own course in the years ahead.
But what was so notable about this Brexit referendum was the populist nature of the vote – giving hope to the working class and standing against globalism. This provision of hope for the downtrodden, coupled with freedom to choose one's own path forward, is very much the theme of Jubilee.
What about other key elections around the world?
Two other election "upsets" have recently rocked the world, one before, and another just after the year 5776.
In March 2015, Netanyahu and the Likud party shocked Israel by winning a landslide victory. Many see this as not just an election, but the end of an era, the era of two-state solution proposals. Israel's demographics are changing to favor a more conservative and religious political view! The people were speaking. While this election was actually in year 5775, it seems to have been a harbinger of the future upsets that were upcoming, such as the Brexit in 5776, and now the Trump victory in early 5777 on November 8th.
Now we write of the American election that made Trump an upset winner. Like Brexit, this populist decision, the most dramatic upset in over one hundred years in America, is once again reminiscent of a Jubilee – a desire for freedom from government as we know it.
Jubilee as a Year of Rest — what else has happened?
The Jubilee itself is not just about slaves being set free and land being returned, it is about rest.
The year 5776 was one of the most watched years ever with respect to war against Israel. The typical view was that the Blood Moons and Shemitah years could signal a war against Israel in 5776 – a view that we have always opposed. We found no basis for that claim in scripture nor in history! In our book Israel FIRST! we stood against the tide and predicted God's blessing on Israel in the post Blood Moons period, even though we had to hold our breath a bit regarding the signing of the Iran deal signed in late 5775.
Instead, what we saw was the God's grace was upon Israel in 5776. Israel's relationship with Jordan, Egypt, and even Turkey and Saudi Arabia have strengthened. Israel even is able to work productively with Russia. Yes, there was the "stabbing Intifada" early in the year 5776 in Israel, but rather than an onslaught on Israel it seems, looking back, to have been more of a harbinger of a new strategy for terror in the West.
Now we come to that "crazy pronouncement" by the educational, scientific and cultural arm of the UN (UNESCO) to vote to disassociate Israel from the Temple Mount. This is nothing but blatant anti-semitism, and God Almighty will not ignore this for those 50 nations that voted for it or remained silent. The United States, the UK and Germany notably stood in opposition to the madness. But while the vote was planned for this summer, the Turkish coup surprisingly pushed the vote to be held only after 5776 was completed, one day after the holiest day of Yom Kippur.
Finally, in the final days of 5776, the decades long season of Israeli leaders staking their hopes for peace upon a divided Israel, came to a close. On September 13, 2016 former Prime Minister Shimon Peres had a stroke (strikingly on the 23rd anniversary of date of his signing of the Oslo Peace Accords). He died 15 days later, just enough time to fit his funeral and remembrance into the last days of 5776. It was widely reported that 70 nations were in attendance. It was less commonly reported that Peres had served in twelve different Israeli administrations.
While we had desired to see Jews becoming completely free to pray on the Temple Mount, and that did not change officially, the change in status in the Golan was the most notable change of its kind since 1967. This is the first time that the nation of Israel has formally annexed land on the Eastern side of the River Jordan in its modern history! It is the number one reason why 5776 can be considered a Jubilee year.
So has the Jubilee been found? And was Year 5776 a Jubilee?
While 5776 seems to fit the evidence fairly well, it is not a slam dunk. A much better, much safer proposition is to say that:
We are going through a Jubilee transition!
Rather than focusing on the exact boundaries of the Jubilee year, let us keep watching and investigating, to see what God does between now and the end of 2017. God does not usually fit within the nice, neat boxes in which we vainly try to place Him!
Ultimately, as we stated in our book Jubilee NOW!, our goal in trying to solve the mystery of the lost Jubilee is to understand the nature of God better. As such, we can safely assume that we will never reach the end of that endeavor, nor would we ever want to serve a God for which that endeavor could be completed.
Final Thought!
When it happens, Jubilee is not the same as Messianic deliverance. It has to be walked out, lived out. You may get your freedom, but with a few bad decisions you can go right back into slavery. The populist movements in Israel, the United Kingdom, and now the United States would do well to prayerfully remember that.

Last week, in one of her "last hamburger, last fatty food diet" mode, Mummy took me to lunch at our favourite Italian restaurant – Lucio!
It's truffle season – and she thought a good way to celebrate before going in to the hospital.
I know they have tons of grissinis (Italian bread sticks) and I get to eat at least a pack each time when I put my nose on Mummy's lap.Mummy ordered the taglolini with truffle. And along came Lucio himself as he shaved a generous portion of truffles onto the pasta More, more is what Mummy was thinking …Oooh! That smells interesting …
Mr. Lucio wondered if I would like some truffles …Note that he's a little cautious and made sure I did't lunge forward and gobbled up the whole piece! LOL!
He wanted to know if I would like them …He shaved some of it into his hand to let me smellAnd then see if I would like themAnd I proceeded to lick every bit from his hand.
So much so that on the way out, my little sniffer could smell the box of truffles behind the counter.And Yaca realised what I was after! She took me to the box of truffles behind the counterMummy's all excited now – all it took was one try and I could smell truffles – she thinks I may have a career in the making. For one, we're faster than the pigs!!! And after all, poodles and cockers are both hunting dogs so I have good genes!
And this is Dario – he's the son of Mr. and Mrs Lucio (not their family name) and he's the daddy of Coco.Coco is the resident poo – he greets everyone that comes, especially the doggies.And gets all the loving from everyone. My sniffer is obviously working because after the truffles, I could smell Coco's treats!May's comment: Just in case I missed out on the truffle season, took myself and Darcy to our favourite Italian restaurant Lucio.Always such a dog-friendly restaurant – never ever feel uncomfortable going in there.
In fact I found out it was dog-friendly by accident. We were walking along Fulham Road one Summer's day – it was a warm day when Lucio spotted us and said – your dog need a drink and he hurried away to get a bowl of water for Darcy. It was only then that I found out they are dog friendly. And the food – delizioso!!!!
Owner Lucio Altana is the "perfect host" at his "romantic" namesake Chelsea venue, a "happy find" for "quality" Italian cuisine; though some wish for "more menu creativity" …
Lucio's address: 257-259 Fulham Road

The Effective Executive by Peter Drucker is a book that is widely recognized for its outstanding content and insights that it provides to its readers. It was rated as one of the best business books by the Wall Street Journal. Drucker taught in various institutions and also provided consultative services. The book is a presentation of Drucker's research and findings about managers and various organizations over a period of twenty years. He has also borrowed ideas from consultancy services that he provided. The book has remained relevant even till recent times and thus Drucker has come to be referred to as the father of management.
Drucker states that being effective can be learnt. Effectiveness is habitual and is acquired through practice. In other words, it is only through practice that one eases the way of doing things, and, as a result, achieves perfection. Apart from practicing, the method or technique used is extremely vital as it determines the level of effectiveness acquired. Just like mastering a multiplication table, one acquires efficiency by continuous practice so as to condition reflexes of a habit. According to Drucker (34), skills alone are not enough to increase productivity. It is essential to have a combination of commitment and effectiveness in whatever field one serves. Therefore, it is obvious that effectiveness is learnt and skills are gained with time and practice.
The author points out that the role of an executive is to execute. Therefore, every person in an organization is an executive because he or she plays a particular role in the organization. The executive has the knowledge and applies it in various duties that he performs in the organization. For this reason, the executive is also known as the knowledge worker. A knowledge worker must be self-motivated. Further, knowledge workers do not need to be supervised by superiors and the guidance that they get should be in the context of assistance or mentorship. Drucker identifies four factors that the executive has no power over, yet these factors make him/her less effective. These actors are outlined below.
1. Executives' time is influenced by other things such as other workers or projects. Therefore, it is not his own.
2. Due to specialization, the executive may be bound to only one role in the organization. This role changes only when a radical change in the organization occurs and the executive now decides to run the whole organization.
3. Executive's productivity is largely bound to the contributions of their colleagues. The organization is a large unit, which leverages on individual contributions of the staff.
4. Working solely within the organization limits the vision of executives. They become able to see only as far as the firm and thus fail to see the broader picture.
The above factors impede the work of an executive and can be overcome only by becoming more effective. Drucker states that effectiveness is a habit rather than a set of basic practices. He goes further to state five essential habits of an effective executive. These habits are presented further.
1.Time management. Executives must pay attention on how they use their time. Time is a fundamental constrain of any executive's life, and they must manage this vital resource to be effective. Efficient time management can only be achieved through planning their work day and keeping a log of how they utilize their time. Drucker suggests structuring ones time in blocks. This does not necessarily take much time. It will depend on various factors such as one's concentration span.
2.The second habit is concentrating on one's contribution. Here Drucker emphasizes that the result justifies the means. He calls for the differentiation of business and effectiveness. For this reason executives are paid to ensure that only right objectives are achieved and not vice-versa (Drucker 154). The author says that the executive should aim at contributing to organization's success. This does not only relate to profits but also to issues such as increase of returns on investments. The executive must start with a broad outlook. He must assess his department and identify how it contributes to the organization. From there, he must look for ways how he can utilize his strengths to contribute to the department. While doing this, one should contribute by focusing their strength on unused potential. This way, resources are not wasted. Instead, they are fully utilized and enhance growth and productivity of an organization (Drucker 54).
3.The third habit is that of building on one's strengths and shifting the focus away from weaknesses as they are irrelevant. People with extraordinary strengths also have considerable weaknesses. Drucker claims that hiring for absence weaknesses is mediocrity. Nobody can be perfect at everything. To achieve strength, one must put up with weakness (Drucker 87). If an executive knows that he/she does not have necessary strengths, then he should identify somebody who does and hire them or delegate the task to them. From here on, the executive must take responsibility for the individual. To properly benefit from strengths, the executive must match these strengths to various problems at hand. Drucker says that effective contribution solves problems of human interaction in the organization in several ways, which are outlined below.
1.Another habit is to focus on several areas, where exceptional performance will make a significant overall difference. This point highlights the importance of prioritizing roles. Effective executives do not prioritize many decisions at the same time. They only concentrate on the strength in order to increase efficiency and enhance productivity. This is why it is vital to analyze strengths and weaknesses in performance (Drucker 113). Drucker identifies concentration as an integral ingredient of effectiveness. Prioritizing one's tasks and duties will lead to effectiveness, especially if they are performed with passion, discipline, and focus. Drucker goes on to identify elements that make prioritizing effective.
2.The last habit that Drucker talks about is effective decision making. There are various ways to ensure that effective decisions are made.
A decision is made between choices and starts with a problem and hypothesis. Effective executives do not make hasty decisions, especially when allocating funds in productive projects (Drucker 113). Overall, I find this book to be particularly insightful and informative. The content of the book is highly relevant in today's management field. Drucker presents his ideas in a clear manner. However, I would like to disagree with what he says on weakness. One's weaknesses should not be totally ignored because they eventually pop up in one's work. As much as we should focus on one's strengths, we should also try to deal with weaknesses since they will eventually reflect in one's work.
The book is unique as it does not have the monotonous "5 ways to effectiveness" language. The discussion is remarkably well built with the flow of points being supported by findings of various case studies. The book is exceedingly dense, and one should take their time to be able to synthesize its contents. I think it would be tremendously helpful to those that are moving from a technical field to a managerial one. It is relevant and has certainly stood the test of time due to author's broad outlook. He sees organizational structure as a part of societal structure. Effectiveness is crucial for man's self-development, societal growth, and organization development (Drucker 170). As the subtitle of the book suggests, it is not only about profits but also about social commitment that an organization should have. The book is an excellent source of ideas that can be implemented in practice.

Plants That Like to Be Next to Each Other in the Garden
Whether you have a large garden or a couple of planter pots on a patio, it is a good idea to understand what type of plants work well together. It's ideal to have a nice variety of plants, ranging from herbs, fruits or vegetable, along with a couple of flowers to accent with colors. Companion planting is when you plant two or more plant species next to each other for mutual benefit, such as providing more nutrients in the soil or repelling insects. There are many types of companion planting, such as fruits by flowers, herbs next to vegetables and vegetables next to other vegetables.
Flowers And Herbs
There are certain flowers that repel several types of insects and can be planted within close proximity to herbs, fruits or vegetables. These include sunflowers, marigolds, petunias and morning glories, to name a few. Flowers are ideal around herbs, fruit trees or produce that attracts of a lot insects. Plant basil and blooming flowers or any type of vegetable together, as basil attracts bees and repels aphids and tomato hornworms. Chives repel aphids, so they can protect flowers like roses, tulips or snapdragons, and vegetables like lettuce, jalapenos and mint. Lavender attracts bees and butterflies for pollination, so it is best planted around blooming flowers and fruit, such as strawberries or tomatoes.
Herb and Vegetables
Herbs and vegetables are often grown together since they are both used consistently together in cooking. These combinations can either protect each other from insects, or will benefit each other through nutrients integrated into the ground. These pairings include radishes paired with chervil; peppers by sweet marjoram; tomatoes next to basil, parsley or sage; cucumbers by lemon balm; or cabbage and mint. Just make sure that these varieties can survive in your climate. Other garden combinations includes thyme by eggplant; broccoli and dill; parsley surrounding carrots; rosemary and peppermint; or onion and savory herb.
Vegetable Pairing
Growing vegetables next to vegetables in a great method when you are growing large amounts. It is also ideal if you are growing vegetables in rows so you can alternate each plant. Proper combinations include corn and eggplant, broccoli and celery; green beans and radishes, onions and carrots, cabbage or lettuce and leeks, and beans with potatoes.

A short note on Mazunte and the coast…
Mazunte is a beach town of 600 inhabitants on a gorgeous bay on Oaxaca's coast. Until the early 1990's their economy was based on the commercial harvesting of sea turtles. Potential extinction of the turtles led to a government ban on that activity and the area plunged into poverty and unemployment. The area suffered another huge economic blow in 1997 when Hurricane Paulina struck and destroyed not only the infrastructures of beach communities but lagoons and forests as well.
National and international organizations took note and a long-term economic development plan was launched. A sea turtle museum was built, a natural cosmetics company started up and surrounding communities initiated sustainable projects of ecotourism and local manufacturing.
Cosméticos Naturales de Mazunte was started with recipes generously donated by The Body Shop. Through making and selling shampoos, soaps and skin creams they have reached a degree of success that allows them to loan money to similar businesses in surrounding communities.
La Ventanilla is a nearby coastal village devoted to caring for and developing their local crocodile and turtle populations as well as growing trees for local reforestation projects.
The Mexican National Turtle Center has fascinating exhibits of turtles from all over the world and is involved in the protection and preservation of sea turtles along the Oaxacan coast.
Leaving Oaxaca between 7 & 8 in the morning we drive through the Ocotlán valley and up into the mountains. After a short break in San Jose del Pacifico we continue on to the small town of San Jose Chacalapa to enjoy lunch in their hot tropical climate. Then it's an afternoon at the beach! At the end of the day we'll walk the 20 minutes out to the tip of Punta Cometa to enjoy the sunset. (Punta Cometa is a natural head between two beaches that has cliffs and its own small beach. You can catch both sunrise and sunset from there.) Dinner and lodging in San Agustinillo.
Day 2
After breakfast we go to visit Cosméticos Naturales de Mazunte and take a brief tour of their facility and retail store. Late morning and early afternoon are spent on San Agustinillo's beautiful beach. In late afternoon we'll jump in the car for the short drive to La Ventanilla where virtually all of the community is involved in an ecotourism project. By small boat we pole through the calm waters of their lagoon to see crocodiles, exotic birds and iguanas. We can also, if we're lucky, help release baby sea turtles into the ocean.
Day 3
Up and out on the ocean before breakfast! We start the day with a boat trip in an open launch where you'll find an abundance of sea life: bright silvery tuna, huge sea turtles, 'flying' rays and possibly even a pod of leaping dolphins or – between December and March – whales! There will also be an opportunity to do a snorkel and goggles and swim with the brilliantly-colored tropical fish in the protected waters of the bay. Enjoy a relaxed afternoon exploring the virgin beach of Agua Blanca and sampling their great seafood.
Day 4
Today we go for a morning visit to Mazunte's famous turtle museum and then drive back to Oaxaca.
The price includes
– Private transportation from Oaxaca city and back.
– English-speaking guide
– Local guides
– Entrance fees and excursions
– 3 overnight stays in San Agustinillo
– Breakfast
Alcoholic drinks and meals – apart from breakfast – are not included.

- Healer and Patron of Those in Difficult Times
- Handmade in the U.S.A.
Of the original twelve apostles, St. Jude is the one most commonly invoked in prayer. Jude is cited only once in the Gospels and is probably the author of the Letter of Jude, the shortest book in the New Testament. Robert Ellsberg has written that Jude may have become the patron of those in difficult times because of "the similarity of his name to that of Judas Iscariot. For a long time this evidently inhibited supplicants from invoking the name of St. Jude. It might be supposed that this had the effect of storing up a good deal of efficacious power." Jude has evoked considerable attention and even amusement over the years because of his association with "lost causes," but there is, as millions know, a far more serious side to his patronage: Jude's association with healing and bringing comfort to those in any type of difficult situation is one of the reasons so many hospitals and clinics have been named after him and why shrines to him are filled with symbols of his healing power of the body, mind, and spirit.
In early Christian sculpture, Jude was often, as here, depicted with a boat because he was one of the first Christian missionaries and would have traveled extensively by ship.
This one of a kind piece is hand carved by American artist Hank Schlau and hand painted by his wife Karen Schlau. Made of durable material that can be displayed both indoors and outdoors.
