Ron Paul doesn't need any endorsements.

This is a people's revolution. The leaders of the established order either see Ron Paul as a threat to that order and their place in it, or they don't yet understand how passionate his supporters are, or how numerous we will become in the next few months.

It's a missed opportunity for them, really -- we will remember who stood up for Ron Paul, and who didn't. We will remember which media outlets gave him a fair shake, and which ones mocked him. We will remember which blogs banned him and which ones discussed him with an open mind, even if they disagreed.

Revolutions always happen much faster than anyone predicts.

11-14-2007, 12:20 AM
He has the people of the United States of America, the only endorsement that counts.

11-14-2007, 12:21 AM
Doesn't Barry Manilow count for something?

11-14-2007, 12:23 AM
I LinuxUser269 whole heartedly endorse Ron Paul.

I, Ash Lux (also a Linux user), whole heartedly endorse Ron Paul. :p

11-14-2007, 12:33 AM
Milton mother f'in Friedman.
Ronald motherf'in Reagan.
Barry Goldwater, Jr.
Robert Novak
The Judge
Pat Buchanan

the guys top notch with endorsements.

11-14-2007, 12:44 AM
It is lonely when you are at the top.

Reagan had very few endorsement when he ran.

Even Barry Goldwater endorsed Ford over Reagan in 1976.

11-14-2007, 12:53 AM
"Theodore Terbolizard" endorsed Ron Paul.

It's in the bag for sure now!

Grandson of Liberty
11-14-2007, 12:58 AM
Ron Paul has been endorsed by the Constitution!

11-14-2007, 01:30 AM
Being from North Carolina, I can tell you that Congressman Walter Jones of the 3rd District has pretty much all but endorsed Ron. He is quoted on the website lauding Ron, and he has stated how highly he thinks of him in an article published earlier this year. It's pretty clear who he supports in this. In fact, I'm going to contact his office to see if he would be willing to speak at a rally we're trying to put together at UNC.

Also, provided that Ron wins New Hampshire and does well in the other states before SC, I can pretty much guarantee you that Mark Sanford will endorse him. There's a reason why he hasn't endorsed anyone else, despite the fact that the other candidates have made aggressive overtures to him: he's waiting for Ron to rise.

I expect we'll see some major endorsements from elected officials coming as Ron's fundraising keeps going up and the poll numbers keep climbing. I'm surprised Chuck Hagel hasn't endorsed him yet; I'm sure he will at some point. John Duncan endorsed Fred Thompson earlier this year and, in doing so, said that while he agrees with Ron more than anyone, he doesn't think Ron "Has a chance." But with Ron's campaign moving forward as it is, he'll probably reconsider. I doubt he'll gain much comfort from continuing to endorse Fred's campaign if it keeps tanking, which amounts to supporting interventionism. He might further be induced to change his mind if Fred drops out early. Jeff Flake (who's endorsed McCain) and others from the Liberty Caucus/RLC may move more and more in Ron's direction. Paul Broun is another I would look for, especially as things move closer to Super Tuesday.

11-14-2007, 01:55 AM
Benjamin Franklin supports Ron Paul.

Because Ben isn't even half the man he used to be.

Costa Brava: 5 places to visit when on holidays #guide

It wasn’t very easy to organize our summer holidays this year. So as I mentioned it before, we just took the car and drove in the South of France. Then we decided to go on the mountain. Actually, in the south-east, there is a sea but also mountains. In my previous article, I was talking about the lakes to visit near Les Angles.

As it was summertime, and in the mountain weather was very cold, 14°C (so, next time please remind me to take some sweaters and long pants, but also a coat for the rain, you never know), we decided to go to Barcelona and then thanks to the advice of our Airbnb host, we visited Costa Brava.

We couldn’t do a lot of the 160 km area of Costa Brava, for the 2 days we have spent there. Nevertheless, we enjoyed some of the most beautiful places and beaches there. Here is the list of the 5 places that worth visiting when in Costa Brava for the summer holidays.

Cala Banys: around 75 km North from Barcelona

This place is perfect for picnic time, but be careful because it is a very rocky place. Otherwise, you also have a very nice place where you can have a meal or drink and enjoy the breathtaking view on the sea. Be sure to have some cash with you, because they do not accept any payment by card.

bar_cala_Banys_rosesinparis nice_place_no_cards_drinks_rosesinparis

travel_Costa_Brava_Spain_blogger discover_spain_coast_Nadyinparis_travel

Cala Ametller: 40 km from Cala Banys

To go to destination, preview around 10 mins walking down the stairs. From the top you can have a beautiful view but if you would like to enjoy it from close, better to go down. Here, you have a very beautiful area for some shooting. Before going down, you can also have a view on the Sant Pol beach.

Sant Pol beach area (Passeig de Sant Pol): 2 km from Cala Ametller

If you are looking for a sandy beach this is the perfect place for you. We haven’t stopped because we wanted to discover as much as possible, but the place was really nice, even if restaurants on the coast were full. For a day on the beach, Sant Pol beach area is definitely one of the perfect places in Costa Brava.

Cala Belladona: 8 km from Sant Pol beach

This place is the perfect sand beach. Quite small, it could be crowded, because there are some hotels in the area. We were struggling to find it because google maps wasn’t very precise. To go there you should take some stairs (5 minutes to go down). The place is perfect when the sun is shinning. We were happy to have 1h sun but then some clouds came and so we have continued our trip.

Badia de Tamariu: 24 km from Cala Belladona

Another very beautiful beach where our road trip in Costa Brava finished. Beach is a mix of sand and small pebbles but is very beautiful. Tamariu is small and quite tourist village in Costa Brava. So, during the day beach can be crowded. Nevertheless, this is the perfect place to spend a romantic night on the beach with a glass of wine.

This was our last stop in Costa Brava. After having spent an hour on this last beach, we drove to Gerona where we spent a day. It was one of our last stop for the summer road trip.

February Beauty Favorites

Guerlain Meteorites Pearls

H&M Eyeshadow in Sahara Dawn

Charlotte Tilbury Colour Chameleon in Amethyst Aphrodisiac

Bare Minerals Prime Time Neutralizing Primer

How is it March already? Seriously though, time seems to be just flying by and I cannot believe we’re almost three months into 2016! Crazy! I am feeling super spring-y and I am really looking forward to some sunshine! Having said that, next week I’m off to a little ski trip with the boy and my family and I am really hoping that there will be some snow left so I can hit the slopes! The weather forecast is not very promising but we’ll see. Fingers crossed! Anyway, today we talk beauty favorites and let’s just say that February was a good’un makeup wise! Here is why:

Lush Wiccy Magic Muscles Massage Bar (here)
So is you’re following me on Instagram (here) you may know that I got really into fitness recently and I am absolutely loving it! Three times a week, my personal trainer and I is brilliant but let me tell you – he does push me to my limits. And you know what this means? Yep, sore muscles. #auch! To help me soothe those aching muscles I’ve been using the Wiccy Magic Muscles Massage Bar from Lush. It is specifically targeted towards sore muscles and I love it! It warms up my whole body and really helps me relax and soothe the pain. It is my fave post-workout treat and I adore its spicy, therapeutic scent. Wiccy Magic Muscles also hydrates the skin beautifully without being too greasy. The scent lingers and adds to the whole spa-like experience and you will be left feeling warmed up, less ache-y and super relaxed! In my ski trip bag it goes!

H&M High Impact Eye Colour Eyeshadow in Sahara Dawn
H&M have really impressed me with their new range and their single eyeshadows are the bomb! I picked up the shade Sahara Dawn and it’s been practically living on my eyelids for the past month. It was a real struggle to capture its true color but it is a stunning cranberry share with slight purple undertones – perfect for all fellow green-eyed gals! It has some fine shimmer running through, which captures the light in all the light places and just adds a touch of sheen. I was seriously impressed by the formula as I usually find it difficult to find good, affordable, non-chalky eyeshadows. This one ticks all the boxes though. It’s blendable, has incredible color pay-off and hangs around for ages without creasing. Love!

Charlotte Tilbury Colour Chameloen in Amethyst Aphrodisiac (here)
So Charlotte Tilbury did it again! It made me completely fall in love with a products and this one has been swiped on quite regularly recently! It’s my first product from the Colour Chameleon range and I will be definitely getting my mitts on some of the other shades. Amethyst Aphrodisiac is made specifically for green eyes and oh boy – does it make them seriously pop! The shade is very similar to H&M Sahara Dawn but in cream form and I love it for nights out – it is the most beautiful swift smokey eye. Amethyst Aphrodisiac really enhances the color of my eyes and I love the small glitter particles that run through the color. I find that the eyeshadow pencil works best ran all over the lid and worn on its own. The formula is lovely even though in all honesty I expected more. The pencil glides on easily but I find it a tad drying and difficult to blend. It does set to a nice smooth finish though, so it’s nothing too bad. What I love about the formula though is the longevity – this baby stays put until you say so and doesn’t crease. Review coming up soon.

Guerlain Meteorites Pearles in 02 Clair (here)
Guerlain have been taking the beauty world by storm recently, which reminded me to dig out my Meteorites and have a play with them. The result? I have fallen back in love with them and I’ve been using them daily throughout the month of February. They are basically finishing powder (not a setting one as many seem to think), which you dust all over your face and you end up with beautiful airbrushed skin. What is the secret behind the technology I don’t know but I do know that the pearls are basically like a Photoshop for your face. They minimize the size of my pores, even out the skin tone, reduce redness, matte thing down and on top of that somehow manage to add gorgeous healthy glow. I love how the Meteorites blur everything and how natural my skin looks when I apply them. No cakey, powdery finish, just natural and radiant glow. I am smitten!

Bare Minerals Prime Time Neutralizing Foundation Primer* (here)
I’ve been looking for a good color correcting primer for ages, so when this beauty hit my doorstep I was beyond excited and a love affair has started. Now I don’t have a lot of redness or discoloration on my face (thank God!) but sometimes when things get spotty or extra red I like to slap this on and leave it work its magic. Prime Time Neutralizing primer, as the name would suggest, is a silicone-based neutralizing primer, which combats redness and hyper pigmentation. It goes on yellow but blends with the skin beautifully reducing the appearance of all imperfections. It evens out the skintone and just brightens up the skin thanks to the light-reflective pigments in the primer. I find that Prime Time does add a touch of moisture into the skin and preps it for the foundation application. If you’re struggling with redness / discoloration look this way ladies!

Have you tried any of these products before? Which was your fave product in February?

Lots of love,

 RSA.ie - Accessibility

What to do if you have a disability, are hard of hearing or cannot speak English

Disabilities & communication problems

You should notify the RSA’s Driver Testing Section in advance if you:

  •  have a severe hearing problem
  •  are restricted in your movements or have any disability which could affect your driving
  •  drive an adapted vehicle

This will ensure you don’t face any delays on the day of your test.
You should also note that if the vehicle you use for the test is adapted to suit a disability (eg, it has additional controls), this will be recorded on your full driving licence.

If you cannot speak English or are deaf, you are permitted to have an interpreter with you for the first (oral) part of the test. They are also permitted to be present at the technical checks, secondary controls and in-car checks and hand signals (which will be conducted at the desk). This person must not be your driving instructor, and may not accompany you during the practical element of the test.

Saturday, December 09, 2017

After leaving messages for friends – voice recordings and text messages in a dozen different directions – I've come back to the solo version of thinking, the bit where it's just you and you're not trying to extend a bridge out of your mind to someone else's. I've a patchy memory –it's the drinking– but I'm trying to piece together when I started to lose the ability to read. I sat in a pub with a diary entry and took a whole quick pint of sugary beer to get through it, start-to-finish with only a hundred breaks on the way. I walked back in the dark where I wasn't distracted by words sitting uselessly in front of my eyes. It isn't even the writing; I've stopped being able to soak in spaces unless there's a podcast on in my ears – I'm not sitting down, I'm not just cooking, I'm not listening to music, I'm certainly not reading; I'm killing time, doing activities which are displacement, which excuse and explain the fact that I can't and won't think. Unless I'm flying (although airports excuse so much unhygienic activity) I don't let myself do anything like thinking, and when I'm flying I'm not displacing the act of thinking with other things, I'm just doing what everyone else in airports are doing – we are shuttering, recoiling. We are shocked from these places where everything is exposed, the biggest lie of glamorous capitalism is uncovered: you can go anywhere but there is no space that will not eventually resemble this airport, all spaces will become airports, where we need to be ticketed and classified and lonely and importantly on our way and invaded and anxious and public and tired and faced with the captive choice of retail outlets or other people's breath, but no-one has a body, in airports we are mannequin.

When did I stop being able to read? I started to give up on thinking when I was turning over the compost heap in the garden in France. If you don't invert your compost from time to time it doesn't work as well – you aerate it, and stop it becoming too compacted or too slimy. What was on the bottom, which should be the hottest, oldest, most rotten stuff, ends up mixed up as a top layer, and instead of the nutrients and nitrogen washing out of it into the soil by rainfall, they get stirred up and soak into the rest of the matter. Turning the compost helps to activate it; so does pissing on it. I was forking it over in summer sunlight, listening to On The Media's Brooke Gladstone and Bob Garfield, who had started to realise that the presidential election in the USA wasn't going to wash out the way that they'd expected, the the republicans might actually endorse the person who seemed to be unendorsable. But I'd stopped being able to read before that. I think that there, digging and listening, was just when I started to be unable to think.

With one hand out, waving traffic around me, and the other reaching inside to turn the steering wheel, I leaned into the car door frame and pushed it out of the carriageway and into the forecourt of a shuttered electrical goods store. Inside the car which had just had its clutch entirely disintegrate – it disengaged terminally – were boxes that I'd been taking to store in my office as I gradually emptied my flat of any possessions and prepared to leave the country. Now they were stranded in a broken-down car on a damp winter day on a forecourt of an empty electrical store. I'd wanted to sell the car, but now I'd have to fix it before it could be sold, and I'd planned to leave within a week and, if all went well, to never come back except to collect the personal items I was going to store in the office. I got in the car and tried to look at the list inside my head of all the things that needed me to have a car for a few more days, and I crumpled up the list when I realised I couldn't read it.

I get messages – voice messages and text messages – and I can hear them as they speak to each other, and there are real people with minds on the other end of them, and I save up nutrients and nitrogen to reply. The winter is helping me to rot, and I get pissed on enough, and sometimes the sun activates helps activate something, but I haven't been able to turn myself over, to turn myself over and engage, for a long time. Friends have died and I've felt real grief and a horror at a bunch of other reactions I've had to their deaths. The news, to which I now turn and creep and grow like a Russian vine, has stored up all the nutrients and nitrogen and I've rooted my thoughts in it and just absorb all day and all night the deadening details of other deadened deaths.

When I was 12 and 13 and 14 and 15 and perhaps a bit before and perhaps for a while after I used the evenings and weekends to do things in the garden. I can clearly remember the water butt that collected rainwater from the garage roof that would become solid in winter, a boy-sized icecube, but in summer would spontaneously generate swimming creatures that would become flies. I'd prune the damson tree, and cut trailer-loads of growth from the Russian vine on the garage roof – green shoots could turn into woody barked cables in a season and started to invade the interior, cracking the structure apart at the joints. I'd creosote the wooden shed and the fences and my arms and hands, it made a stain on skin that stank of cancer. I'm not sure I thought then, or read much, but I think I didn't go about with unthought and I think I could read without effort.

6 Ways You Can Improve Your Mental Health

Mental health consists of our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It impacts how we think, feel, and act. It also helps identify how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices. Mental health is important at every stage of life, from childhood and adolescence through adulthood.

Mental health is a lot more than a diagnosis. And while taking care of your mental health might mean seeking professional support and treatment, it also means taking steps to better your emotional health on your own. Making these alterations will pay off in all aspects of your life. It can boost your mood, build resilience, and add to your overall enjoyment and satisfaction of life

Eminent psychologist, marriage counselor and relationship expert Shivani Misri Sadhoo shares 6 ways you can improve your mental health.

1.  Always Tell Yourself Something Positive

Some research shows that how you think about yourself can have a huge effect on how you feel. When we understand our self and our life negatively, we can end up seeing experiences in a way that confirms that belief. Instead, practice using words that promote feelings of self-worth and personal power. For instance, instead of saying, I am a loser. I won’t get the job because I struggled in the interview, try saying, I didn’t do as well in the interview as I could have, but it doesn’t mean I’m not going to get the job.

2.  Focus on One Thing at A Given Time

Being aware of the current moment gives you to let go of negative or difficult emotions from past experiences that put us down. Begin by bringing awareness to routine activities, such as taking a bath, eating lunch, or exercising. Paying attention to the physical sensations, sounds, smells, or tastes of these experiences aids your focus. When your mind wavers, just bring it back to what you are doing currently.

3.  Note down Something You Are Grateful For

Being grateful has been clearly linked with improved well-being and mental health, as well as happiness. The best-researched method to increase feelings of gratitude is to keep a gratitude diary or write a daily gratitude list. Usually, contemplating gratitude is also productive, but you need to get daily practice to experience long-term benefit. Find something to be grateful for, let it fill your heart, and bask in that feeling.

4.   Eat a Good Meal

Stuff you eat nourishes your whole body, including your mind and heart. Carbohydrates (in moderate amounts) increase serotonin, a chemical that has shown to have a calming effect on your mood. Protein-rich foods increase norepinephrine, dopamine, and tyrosine, which help keep you alert. And vegetables and fruits are loaded with nutrients that feed every cell of your body, including those that impact mood-regulating brain chemicals. Include foods with Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (found in fish, nuts, and flaxseed.) Research shows that these nutrients can improve mood and restore structural integrity to the brain cells necessary for cognitive function.

5.  Open Up To Someone

Knowing you are valued by others is essential for helping you think more positively. Additionally, being more trusting can increase your emotional well-being because as you get better at finding the positive aspects in others, you become better at recognizing your own.

6.  Do Something for Someone Else

Being helpful to others has a beneficial effect on how you feel about yourself. Being helpful and kind and value for what you do is a great way to build self-esteem. The meaning you find in helping others will nourish and expand your life.

Maintaining Your Price

Dealing with price objections is a constant challenge for salespeople.  It’s part of the territory, and here’s why.

  • We, as buyers, seem to be culturally conditioned to ask about price. You will always be tested.  It’s part of the game.
  • As salespeople, we often send signals that we are willing to negotiate price in order to win the business. This exacerbates the situation.

You may be part of the problem.  Salespeople often send the wrong message.

  • The price is negotiable – “I want to work with you on this” or “this is just list price.”
  • They invite the customer to beat them up – “Tell me where I need to be.”
  • They encourage the customer to shop – “Check around. You’ll see that we’re quite competitive.”
  • The customer flinches (“Wow, that’s expensive”) and the salesperson caves in – “Let me see what we can do.”

Considering these realities, price often becomes an issue when it should be irrelevant.  The price issue will be raised, and you need to know how to deal with it.

  • The more pain you find, the less price will be an issue.
  • If you have reservations about your prices, you must overcome them.
  • Don’t ever be defensive about your price.
  • Just say “no,” “no,” and “no” again. The prospect will be more likely to give up if he sees you have conviction about your price. (You might be pleasantly surprised about what happens when you say, “Sorry, but no.”)
  • Understand that you’re the only one who can cut your price…your competition can’t.
  • Reframe you discussion about price into a discussion of overall value.
  • Stop talking about “price” or “cost” and use “investment”
  • If you can’t get your price, know that walking away is always an option.
  • If you must negotiate your price, get something of equal or greater value in return.

What to say about price:  “The real issue is not what it’s going to cost, but what’s the value of it once you buy it and implement it.  And if it doesn’t bring more value than what it costs, then you absolutely shouldn’t do it.”

Self-Study Assignment:  How do you feel about the pricing of your products & services?  Hopefully you feel your prices are entirely justified.  If you are having trouble maintaining your target selling price, evaluate the suggestions above to see if they will help.

Sander on the PCT

Day 114: Cascade Locks

10.8 miles (17.4km)

17 Aug 2018

Another fairly steep downhill to Cascade Locks. We're close to sea level now at the lowest point on the pct.

On the way down it hits me that brunch is simply a contraction of breakfast and lunch. Makes perfect sense when you think in English. In Dutch, you still use the word brunch but the words for breakfast and lunch are completely different. Well that was my aha moment of today.

After breakfast, we go down to the Trail Days area to check it out. It's a three day event with gear vendors and events. Currently most vendors are still setting up. We run into Mousetrap and Pez and head over to the Thunder Island brewery for a beer and some food. They have a really cool system where other guests can pay it forward, buying pct hikers a beer using coasters.

Next we go to the Ale House. Not to get more beer but to pick up our resupply boxes. For me also new shoes - after only 550 miles this time. This pair should make it to Canada - and a NeoAir sleeping pad. Then I got a way too big soft icecream before we headed back to Trail Days.

We run into Twocan and get a message that Download just got in and is going to the Thunder brewery. I guess we're going for another beer. It doesn't take long before Larry Bird also shows up. All the people I've hiked with for more than a few days are here. Nice little reunion. Our plan of getting back on the trail that same evening soon becomes rather unrealistic. After a last beer st the Cascade Inn, we head over to an island in the Colombia river which serves as an overflow campsite to host all the hikers. Probably over a hundred of tents are already up when we finally get there around midnight.

Everyone Has A Story

Begun in 1938 as a 12-stool restaurant with a small 2-kerosene burner stove, The Sanitary Fish Market and Restaurant today is an east institution and legend that seats up to 500 people. The Sanitary was established by Captain Ted Garner and Captain Tony Seamon at the request of their fishing charter customers who wanted to have a fish dinner without having to spend a day fishing themselves.

For a storyteller and a radio-lover, podcasting is a brave new world.

So, I am including here some of my 'home-brewed' podcasts. Because I know next to nothing about audio production, my friend Mark McGee, of Central Landing Sound, was kind enough to help me record the first one. The next two I recorded and edited myself using Audacity. I am not promising professional quality in this round but I don’t really mind the slightly amateurish quality as I would like kids to hear the ‘realness’ of the reading versus a canned product.  It sounds like an excuse but my hope is that it will encourage them to try this medium for themselves.

Podcast Notes:

1.  Chapter 4 from my book, The Truth About Horses.  This chapter is all about my friend Molly Maloney attempting to ride our unrideable pony.

2.  Lisa's Snow Day was originally pubished as a picture book in 1988.  It is long out of print but I still enjoy telling this story which features a wild toboggan ride on a Maine winter day.

3.  The year Sally Beanpot Won the Waldo County Fair Fddling Contest - one of my Maine tales.  I love fiddle music and this recording features original fiddle music from fiddler Grassapelli.

Vehicle Review: 2013 Kia Optima Hybrid

Every driven a hybrid? Well, I got to drive my first hybrid this past week. What did I think of it and is a hybrid right for you? Well, read on!
The non-hybrid Kia Optima is already my favorite vehicle review ever. Such a beautiful vehicle! Smooth European styling makes this car look better and better each time I see it! Peter Schreyer is the guy in charge of design and he came from Audi so you can see the influence.
Aggressive features make this a total standout car!
Powerful HID headlights cut through the night with ease!
Well thought out cockpit. Everything is easily within reach!The navigation center is angled slightly towards the driver than the previous model I tested. I like the subtle change as it keeps the information closer to the drivers peripheral vision.

The navigation system is spot on and makes driving from destination to destination a breeze! Calculation of your destination as well as any recalculation is quick. Plus, the Sirius XM is one of the best things to keep you company on any length drive. And I love the rear view camera! I hope one day that the Optima will also get the side mirror blind spot detection system that the Sorento has. Nothing like making it easier for the driver to spot other vehicles or people.

The bluetooth connectivity is easy to set up and making phone calls is a breeze. Speaker quality is top notch and had no problem hearing the person on the other side and they had no problem hearing me.
 Easy to read dash even in daylight! I love that the gauges are simple to read and are nice and bright!
You can see where the vehicle gets its power from as it switches back and forth from engine to battery. The change from one to the other is pretty much flawless. The car is super quiet and when you start it up, it's so weird to not hear a thing.

The gas engine cranks out 159 HP which is great for heading for long distances, over the grapevine or just driving around town. The tank is a huge 17.5 gallon tank and with an average of 37 miles per gallon for both city and highway makes for one long road trip!
 Lil Oishi loves being environmentally friendly!

The EX model is fully loaded! HID headlights, a panoramic sunroof, 17-inch aluminum wheels, an Infinity audio system, an eight-way power driver’s seat, Kia’s UVO infotainment system, heated front and rear seats, and a cooled driver’s seat are all standard on this model!

You never realize how nice it would be to have air cooling seat backs until you have a hot, humid summer day!
Memory drivers seat that slides back when you turn the car off to allow you an easier exit. The seats are very comfortable and almost feel like they were built just for you.
These outlets are on the center console and are easy to reach and give you a variety of charging options.

With the Optima having push to start, this is also the space that I leave my keys and key fob. I don't like having the keys in my pocket. This was a problem with the Mazda 3i Grand Touring as it didn't have a convenient place for me to toss my keys.
The drivers side door has all the typical control options.
Infinity speakers offer crystal clear sound throughout the entire vehicle.
Lots of leg room in the back. These seats are just as comfortable as the front seats.
Powerful air conditioning vents for the rear passengers.
Pulldown cup holders and additional arm rest for the back.
Each rear door has an additional space for another drink if you need it.
 One of my favorite features, the double panoramic sunroof! It is just a beautiful as the rest of the car!
Look at that view! So great to look at the stars or watch the rain fall down.
Lots of trunk space is perfect for grocery shopping or going on vacation!
No spare tire but a tire repair kit is supplied.
One last look at the beautiful Kia Optima Hybrid!

The model that I test drove came fully equipped a $32, 725.00 with all the features discussed above.

An impressive vehicle that handles fantastically! I loved driving my first hybrid and did not notice any real difference in power or handling from its regular gas engine version. The biggest difference is obviously the quietness of the vehicle. One of the best I have driven still and hope one day someone like Oprah will buy it for me!

Stylish good looks, a well equipped car, and great power and gas mileage make this Kia Optima Hybrid EX a winner! A must buy in my book!

  1. Roadside Assistance Auto Towing Services Car Lockout Emergency Towing ... Delta Towing Dallas comprises of skilled and experienced tow truck. Los Gatos Towing

  2. Portability is the greatest feature of the dash camera, and is also the main reason of its high demand in the market. A user does not have to think twice when he is looking for a portable entertainment device. Just pick the dash camera and carry it around. Best Front And Rear Dash Cam

  3. I literally loved to find the reviews finally.It will be helpful. If I give review on tow service richmond, I will give its service 5 out of 5.

  4. Also, you certainly might not want to see the drivers that work on behalf of private companies that show up to repossess your vehicles. Nevertheless, they are performing their jobs as permitted by law. Towing Richmond hill

Letter from Ambrose Pinney

Namur, November 1918

My Dear Lady Monkswell, How very nice of you to write to me. It was a great moment when the Hun finally caved in, and since then the situation has not been without a humour of its own.

By mistake we captured some Hun prisoners after 11am. Various regiments wired in as to what was to be done with them. GHQ said that they were to be released at once and followed it up with a number of worries as to why their orders had not been obeyed.

Ambrose Pinney Letter to Lady Mary

With a large crowd of the Brave Belge waiting around with meat choppers, shovels etc, as is their playful habit, it was easier said than done. Finally they were put into lorries, run at dead of night into the Hun lines and slipped there.

A great deal of sympathy has been wasted on the Belge. The difference between the state of the country here and the occupied parts of France is immense. The people here have never been short of food, and really the worst they have had to submit to is being turned out of some of their rooms and not being allowed to travel or be out after dark.

The farmers are reported to have made fortunes out of the Hun and all their land is well cultivated and a number of cattle and horses still remain. In the case of the French country not so much as a rabbit remained and all the land was uncultivated.

At present I am having a very busy time going round in cars with German delegates taking over guns from them which they have to leave behind. The situation is rather comic as we are careful to put a British officer in each car, and the efforts of the Belge to throw flowers at the one and bricks at the other is rather comic.

Of course we go armed and so far all has been well, but it is rather nervous work at times and it would be an awful thing if they got damaged while under our protection.

We have arrived at Namur tonight and as I did not get in until after dark I don’t know what the place is like, but I am billeted in quite a good hotel, a new experience, and I ought to do justice to the bed after 9 hours in as car on a cold day.

Our entries into towns are rather fine, Corps Commander and a large staff mounted, greeted by a band at the entrance to each town, played through the town, speeches by the Mayor bouquets, flowers etc.

I have always wanted to thank you for all you have done for my mother during the war. I am sure that your kindness to her has been of the utmost value to her in keeping her end up during a long, trying and lonely time. With all best wishes, believe me, yours very sincerely GA Pinney

Clinic Day Instructions:

Alterra Check-In:

When you arrive at Alterra Apartments officers will be checking you in. They will check for your U.S passport/passport card, collect fees, collect signed shadowing guidelines, collect emergency contact information, and provide scrubs. Once all volunteers have arrived and checked in, you will be assigned to your cars and will leave together and head to clinic no later than 6am.

We travel 15 minutes south of the Otay Border to a church called “Parroquia San Benito Abad.” Our free services are offered in a small building next to the church and the space is provided to us by the San Benito Abad church.

There are always 6-8 cars that travel together at all times. The only exception is the 5am group, which is a 2 car group. Every car has an officer and a Spanish speaker, which is why we ask that you remain in the car assigned to you. If you are a driver: please respect all rules, drive in a single file, and remember to look out for the FS cars infront and behind you. Should there be a problem, pull over so the rest of the group knows to stop.

Once at the Otay Border, we suggest you put your phones on Airplane Mode, so that you are not charged with roaming fees.

After all patients have been seen and we are ready to head out, the carpool list will be announced and ALL cars should leave together to make sure we all arrive safely at the border.

Wait time is usually between 30min-2hrs. There’s always plenty of food/snacks that can be bought while we wait. After crossing all cars head to the Alterra Apartments where volunteers are dropped off. Each driver is to report to the President once the group has made it to Alterra.

The building that we work in is small so it gets crowded, therefore we ask that you leave your belongings in the car. They should remain safe as cars are parked in front of the church.

Flying Samaritans brings water and snacks for volunteers, but we suggest to bring your own lunch/snacks. Also, most months the church’s kitchen sells tacos and snacks. There is also a small dining area which volunteers are welcome to use.

There are restrooms located in the far back area of the church that we are allowed to use. Plumbing in those restrooms is “sensitive”, so please do not flush any paper.

Patient Privacy:

We ask that you do not upload pictures of patients on social media and apply the shadowing guidelines to the entire clinic setting.

Clinic Setting Overview

 Patients start arriving at 6am and they are checked in as soon as we have all stations set up. There are 6 stations in total and patients go through each one in the following order:

  1. Registration
  2. Triage (skipped if only going to Dental clinic)
  3. Lab (if needed)
  4. Exam Rooms/Dental Chairs
  5. Physical Therapy (if needed)
  6. Pharmacy

*The Public Health  department works independently with the patients and the officer in charge will be leading the group.

 All volunteers should be assigned a station and they are to remain in that station unless instructed otherwise.

 Clinic day is split into 2 shifts where most, but not all, volunteers switch stations. We start letting volunteers go on break at around 11am, depending on how busy clinic is. Towards the end of the day clinic starts to slow down and it’s during that time that we ask that you help cleaning up.

Patient Process

Each patient has a file with 2 important sheets added during their visit: Demographics and Patient Assessment. Also, each patient file has a  Medical Record Number (MRN) which we use to track their file. All patients go through clinic in a first come first serve basis, unless there is a medical emergency and those that are in triage will send the patients immediately to see a provider.

There is a file tray for Registration, Lab, Exam Room, Physical Therapy, Dental Clinic and the very last station Pharmacy. All files remain in those file trays unless they are in the hands of a runner, provider, or Pharmacy Coordinators.

To keep track of patient flow we have a “Patient Tracker Sheet” which runners are responsible for filing out.

Seven Stations:

  • Registration
  • Triage
  • Lab
  • Exam rooms/Dental Chairs
  • Public Health
  • Physical Therapy
  • Pharmacy

Clinic Layout

First stop for the Patients!

Patients will be signed up in a first come, first serve basis.

ANYONE CAN HELP. No requirements, besides the need of two Spanish speakers.

Volunteers will check in patients by recording their name, finding their patient file or making a new file for new patients and attaching new provider assessment sheets to each patients file. Runners will take the file to triage, making sure to log in the patient on our patient tracker system. Meanwhile, patients will wait to be called by the next available Triager.

  • WHO can triage? Must be a Certified EMT, Nursing student, Certified Nursing Assistant, Licensed Medical Assistant, or other licensed healthcare member, provider trained, and experienced in taking vital signs.
    • A note to nursing students: must have received and passed the vital signs training in N202.
  • What is a triage volunteer’s ROLE?
    • To collect information about the patient’s chief complaint, medical history, current medications, and allergies.
    • Measures height, weight, and vital signs.
  • EXPECTATIONS for this station:
    • Respect patient privacy & confidentiality.
    • Know normal vital sign ranges and which values are considered dangerous.
    • Use proper hand hygiene when in contact with patients.
    • Understand the importance of DETAIL
  • At this station, we also need Spanish translators for any Triagers that don’t speak spanish (no triaging experience required for translators but knowledge of spanish medical terminology is required).

  • WHO can volunteer in lab? anyone!
  • What is a lab volunteer’s ROLE? Perform various lab tests which include:
    • Blood glucose
    • A1C
    • 10 panel urinalysis
    • Pregnancy test
  • EXPECTATIONS for this station:
    • Respect patient privacy & confidentiality
    • Know normal blood glucose ranges and which values are considered dangerous
    • Utilize appropriate safety measures when handling needles and body fluids
    • Use and encourage proper hand hygiene.

  • OPEN to all volunteers, with Pre-Pharm students having priority.
  • Minimum of 1 Spanish speaker to hand out medications and relay information to the patients.
  • At this station, volunteers will fill prescriptions, count out pills and proper dosages, and make medication labels.
  • When working at this station, PLEASE WRITE LEGIBLE and refer to coordinators for proper translation of instructions.

Dental Clinic:

  • Open to all volunteers with pre-dental students having priority.
  • Volunteers will assist dental providers with teeth cleaning and extractions. They will be shadowing the providers, assist with suctioning, and handle

If there are any questions during clinic ask the officers in charge for help.

Car show to benefit daughter of officer

By Cathy Shufelt

The Blades Volunteer Fire Company will host its annual car show on Sunday, Sept. 20. All money earned during the event will be donated to the Aubrey Spicer trust fund in memory of her father, Georgetown Patrolman Chad Spicer, who was killed in the line of duty. The Blades town council also voted to make a donation to the same trust fund in the amount of $250, as well as a $100 donation to the Blades Volunteer Fire Company in memory of William Hammond, former council member and mayor of Blades, who was very active in the fire company for many years. A Certificate of Appreciation was awarded by the council to Fred Henning for his continued support of the Blades community. Henning, a former council member, recently donated the fencing needed to help complete a renovation project on the High Street Cemetery. The fencing would have cost the town approximately $1,800, and Mayor Michael Smith wanted everyone to know that the town "very much appreciates such a donation that helps beautify the cemetery and saves the town money." Henning has also helped by overseeing the installation of a handicapped ramp at town hall, insulation in Hardin Hall, and donating land along the Nanticoke River for the town's river walk that will be completed in the not too distant future. B.J. Hardin reported that the Dave Webb memorial pavilion will be dedicated on October 3, along with other festivities and food at the Blades Marina. Councilman Russell Joseph and Mayor Smith informed council members that DelDOT has told the town that funds are not available to help with the town's storm water drainage project. Smith said the town will investigate other funding sources.

Five candidates for the vacant positions on the Blades Police Department were interviewed by the town's hiring committee recently. Of the five candidates interviewed, three were chosen to complete the process to become officers. Two candidates will attend the state police academy beginning in October with one candidate being held as an alternate in the event one of the top two choices is unable to complete the academy for any reason. It will take approximately six months for candidates to complete all the necessary training and certifications to begin patrol duty in March or April. It will cost Blades $15,000 to $20,000 per candidate prior to them becoming active police officers.

What do today's populist tendencies mean for the NW?
Town Square: Trust in an Era of Change

As populism plays a growing role in the global political landscape, it is becoming a force that business leaders ignore at their peril. At its essence, populism represents a crisis in trust, a sense that the institutions of government, business, the media and even NGOs-and the people who lead them-no longer represent the best interests of the general population. What do today's populist tendencies mean for the Northwest and how do our regional leaders earn the license to lead as they seek solutions to pressing issues such as homelessness, education, infrastructure and economic growth? The 2017 Edelman Trust Barometer explores how business must lead in a populist era, and the imperatives for earning trust across the population divide.

An interactive panel discussion will be moderated by Will Ludlam, General Manager of Edelman Pacific Northwest.  Guest include:

The Honorable Pramila Jayapal Congresswoman, U.S. House of Representatives (WA-07)
Orlando Ashford President, Holland America Line
Caryn Mathes President and General Manager, KUOW
Kirk Schulz President, Washington State University
Richard Edelman President and Global CEO, Edelman

It is with great sadness that I'm here to report that Navin Pratap, the actor who voiced the character of John Glass in Hellacious Acres, has passed away a few days ago, in his Toronto apartment. He was only 31 years old... Working with him was a great pleasure, he was very professional and enthusiastic, had the fire of passion in him, and had an awesome sense of humor.

Sending my love and thoughts to his brother Vinesh and his family. His funeral will be held at the Chapel of chimes 10179 108 St, in Edmonton, this Saturday at 2pm.

"Tremblay gets bonus points for crafting a film of fairly marked originality and for not playing to genre stereotypes"
"You’ve got to give Tremblay credit for doing a lot on a limited budget and for creating some pretty interesting visuals"
"there’s a lot of creativity here that is definitely going to appeal to a certain segment of the cult movie demographic."

Review by James DePaolo from Wicked Channel.com right HERE.

"I love the feel of this film."
"The biggest thing that I loved about this movie, is the odd sense of humor"
"This film is very smart and in the same breath, adventurous."

Review by Jimmy Terror (aka James P. Harris) from The Liberal Dead.com right HERE.

Some highlights:
"Sometimes less is more and in this case less is hysterically funny."
"I’m a particular fan of the music."
"A fine choice by Bloody Disgusting Selects. We should be glad they chose this to promote as we might otherwise be unaware of Mr. Tremblay’s talent. Let’s keep an eye on his work."

April 11th, 2012

Review by Jude Felton from The Lair of Filth.com right HERE.

"it is a funny movie and a quite surreal one."
"Hellacious Acres is probably the strangest release in the Bloody Disgusting Selects series. Scratch that, it is THE strangest, but it is also probably the bravest release due to its style and content."
"Those that crave something fresh and unique will totally dig it"

Just received a few media quotes from reviews of the film coming from Germany, following its appearance last September at the Oldenburg Film Festival. Better late than never! Here they are:

"A movie lover’s highlight. The tragic humor, the funny costumes and the original camerawork are all impressively immediate and bring the audience straight into the world of John Glass."

"Hellacious Aces is an apocalyptic nightmare. Director Pat Tremblay presents his story darkly, bleakly but at the same time quirky and with a clever sense of humor and surprise. The audience gladly joins this journey into the “Self Sector”."

"The long walk of John Glass is the indie sensation of this year."
Nordwest Zeitung

"Hellacious Acres by Pat Tremblay is a wonderful addition to this festival. Great entertainment and a highly fulfilling experience for anyone in love with cinema."
NEGATIV Magazin für Filmkultur

Francis Barbier of DevilDead has put online the interview (in French) he conducted with me at the Lausanne Underground Film Festival. Here is the link:
Devil Dead Interview. ________________________________________________________________________

December 1rst, 2011

New review (in Spanish) of the film by the Judex Fanzine:
Judex Fanzine review. Which roughly translates as the following:
"Anomalous and completely insane, Hellacious Acres: The Case of John Class is of an irresistible outlandishness whose main virtues are not to take itself too seriously and to boast with of a bizarre sense of humor (unbelievable the way John Class have to eat and defecate!). Framed in inhospitable forests and rural landscapes (the hellacious acres of the title), surrounded by farms and stables in ruins, the film turns out to be an unusual retro-futuristic and post-apocalyptic American gothic film. Ideal for being watched in the early (or late) morning and, if possible, with a mild psychotropic."

November 4th, 2011

Ok. For anybody who doesn't know yet, one promo item I handmade to give out to female fans of of the film, were pairs of Hellacious Acres panties.... (men get t-shirts). I got surprised when, for the first screening in Taïwan, alot of women from the audience wanted to get the single pair I was offering...! (they were much shyer for the 2nd screening, but that's no surprise, almost everywhere else on the fest circuit, there's rarely a taker! Haahaa!). The famous and well known paper "The Liberty Times" got a hold of the scoop and the news made it in print! Apparently, this newspaper never goes for unknowns, let alone film directors, focusing instead on big celebrities, according to my sources. So, what do you know, just as I was on the verge of saying goodbye to the very generous, courteous and lovable Kaohsiung crew, the festival director gets a phone call about it... A couple of minutes later, Paul got to a local store and got me a fresh copy of the paper...! You can see the whole thing right here:!!! I'm pictured with the winner.

You can also find a new French review at the bottom of the main one for the 24 Images cinema magazine: 24 Images review
English translation read as such: "Meanwhile, at the Fantasia festival, a real low budget film entitled Hellacious Acres : The Case of John Glass, from Pat Tremblay, revisits - voluntarily - Z movies by making a hilarious B one, a bit like if the Monty Pythons had overtaken the shoot of Stalker by Andrei Tarkovski. Fully conscious of the spectator's point of view, the filmmaker plays with a crazy talent for the grotesque in every scene. Jam-packed with visual inventions and story twists, all delightful on many levels, Hellacious Acres proves that bad movies are never where you think you will find them. This time, we have a hearty laugh and find new faith in genre cinema."

University of California Davis Real Estate

The University of California, Davis, is a public research university located in the city of Davis just west of Sacramento. It encompasses 5,300 acres of land, making it the second largest UC campus in terms of land ownership, after UC Merced. UC Davis has the third largest enrollment in the UC system after UCLA and UC Berkeley.

UC Davis began as a farm school in 1909 to teach agriculture to California residents who were leaving the state to pursue this type of education. The school is home to the “Aggies” (for their famed mascot) and is located adjacent to the City of Davis in an unincorporated part of Yolo and Solano counties. The main campus is just 15 miles from Sacramento and very close to Interstate 80.

Davis is known as a college town, giving a youthful and artsy vibe to the whole area. The “Main Quad” portion of the campus is just a 5-10 minute walk to downtown Davis and a 15-minute drive from Sacramento, creating the perfect mix of a college environment with a metropolitan area nearby.

The campus includes an arboretum with more than 4,000 kinds of trees and plants, equestrian center, animal sciences building, and the Mondavi Center, home to the University Symphony Orchestra. The area is perfect for anyone interested in a college that is ecologically and culturally diverse.

  • Rooting Guidelines

      25/35 mm single or double strip
      Rooting Hormone (IBA + NAA mix):
      Average Days with Mist:
      7 to 9
      Early PGR Treatment Recommended (after 7 - 10 days): (see note)

      PGR applications during rooting:
      Sprays only. Cover the plants and avoid run-off as much as possible. For vigorous products, first application should be done about 7-10 days after sticking, second when needed. Please test before use.

      Average Propagation Weeks:
      Pinch in Propagation:
      Stick right after arrival, keep cuttings hydrated for the first three days, and reduce mist afterwards as soon as possible. Apply preventive fungicide treatment after sticking.
  • Rooting & Finishing

    • Media pH: (see note)

      Media pH:
      Best results are achieved if media with the correct pH is used starting with propagation.

      Fertilizer Needs: (see note)
      200-250 PPM N/EC 1.8-2.0

      Fertilizer needs:
      Start with low concentrations after roots show and increase with plant development to the recommended levels.

      Watering: (see note)
      grow on the dry side

      In general avoid drying out or overwatering the substrate as this will affect plant quality and finishing time. Root system will suffer when conditions change from one extreme to the other. “Growing on the dry side“ means letting the substrate become dry (substrate color turns light brown and substrate starts to separate from the pot edge) before watering.

      “Keep constantly moist“ means watering the plants just before substrate becomes dry. Water management in rooting and finishing is half the success and the best way to prevent root-bound diseases, improve performance and control plant quality.

  • Finishing Guidelines

    • Temperature Needs Day/Night: (see note)
      65-75°F/60-65°F 18-24°C/16-18°C

      Temperature needs day/night:
      During rooting keep soil temperature measured in the liner at 70°F/21°C until cuttings are well-rooted. After planting the liner, keep temperature up until roots have developed nicely. Afterward follow recommendations.

      The use of “Cool Morning“ treatments will improve plant quality, flower and foliage color, and plant habit, and harden the plants. Lower the temperature by 8-12°F/4-6°C 2 hours before sunrise until 2-3 hours after sunrise. Start treatments after plants are rooted in, well-branched and cover the media (reach the pot edges). To avoid delayed flowering, keep the average day temperature under a close watch and if necessary, increase night temperatures. Finishing of the crop depends on the average day temperature, and positive or negative DIF methods as well as “Cool Morning” can be used to improve plant quality.

      Pinch after Transplant (unpinched liners):
      Light Levels in Foot Candles:
      3,000 to 5,000
      Plant Growth Regulators (PGR) (S) = spray / (D) = drench:
      Cycocel 750-1,000 PPM + B-Nine 1,500-2,500 PPM tank mix (S), Sumagic 1-3 PPM (S), Bonzi 2-5 PPM (S)
      Pests and Fungal Diseases:
      Thrips, Fungus Gnats, Spider Mites, White Fly, Rust, Botrytis, Pythium
      Maintain temperature and grow the crop on the dry side, but avoid drying out, as this will slow growth (plants will push flowers). Provide excellent air circulation.
