Hi, I am looking for one of two things to complement my new BK14 (not yet arrived :banghead:) -A pre


Hi, I am looking for one of two things to complement my new BK14 (not yet arrived :banghead:) -A pre-made trainer with a similar OAL (7", 3.25" blade) and handle food trailers shape to the BK14. I am adding micarta scales to my BK14 but that doesn't make a ton of difference. I will be practicing with the Ed Van Hoy biotac food trailers (similar to Mercharness - it was a matter of availability) so an eyelet sheath or the off chance food trailers it would fit the BK14 sheath would be great. -A cost effective and reasonably easy way to make a trainer...It doesn't have to be exact! I don't want to grind down another BK14 for training purposes food trailers but if someone knows of a similar CHEAP fixed blade, or a molding process or type of material food trailers that'd work, please let me know! Thanks!
get cardboard the same thickness as the Becker, cut out he cardboard to match the Becker, have a machine shop cut a blank the same size/shape from brass or stainless and round the edges and put more micarta scales from Becker/KaBar on it. Same weight (at least with the steel) and balance, but without the edges. Since you don't need to heat treat or use tool steel you'll come out cheaper. If you're good with a plasma torch (and have access to one) you can cut it yourself and then sand the edges/point down.
Cool idea hso, I sent some emails to machine shops. Thanks. I will probably use a duct tape wrap and have them beef the handle up relative to the bk14 so I don't need to spend $15 + shipping just yet on more micarta scales. Also, while we're on the bk14 topic, how viable is a leather holster for vertical inverted carry, if it's molded well enough? I have a woman who does magic with leather, I think she may be able to pull it off. I will post pics of my BK14 once I RIT dye it green or purple and have a leather sheath w/ eyelets :)

But whenever you have what I call a period of virtual credit money, when money is recognized not to


This is the seventh month in which reports have said that a deal is right around the corner. hot dog trailer Nobody really wants to sign onto a deal, however: the banks don’t want to give up the money, and increasing numbers of AGs don’t want to give up the liability release.
In Shahien’s story, it’s telling that all the players are doing the arithmetic on what each bank would owe (with the alarming information that 80% of the funds would go to the federal government to parcel out, and only 20% to the states who are negotiating the deal). That sidesteps the fact that many AGs want to limit a liability release while the banks want to broaden it. In addition, New York AG Eric Schneiderman and his allies want an actual investigation on the depth of the problem before administering a settlement. So there’s no needle to thread.
The latest AG to stand with Schneiderman and against the attempts to whitewash the fraud of the big banks is Kentucky AG Jack Conway. He is up for re-election this year, and is known nationally by virtue of his unsuccessful challenge to Rand Paul for Senate hot dog trailer in 2010. Conway, in conjunction with the Progressive Change Campaign Committee, sent an email to supporters aligning himself with Schneiderman.
The same Wall Street banks whose irresponsible hot dog trailer actions led to our nation’s economic collapse are now pressuring all 50 states to give them legal immunity. The banks want to block any criminal or civil accountability for actions that have yet to be investigated.
Attorneys General from Delaware, Minnesota, Nevada and New York have been fighting back. Today, I want to make a clear statement in support of Wall Street accountability and against immunity for banks — and I ask you to join me on this statement:
“Today’s economic crisis was caused by Wall Street acting improperly. Every American has paid the price — with families losing their homes, investors losing their money, and many Americans losing hot dog trailer their jobs. There should be absolutely no criminal or civil immunity given to banks for activity that has not yet been investigated.”
Several things are important here. Kentucky didn’t really have a big housing bubble – Conway is supporting this on principle, rather than in service to a wide swath of dispossessed and struggling borrowers who are victims of fraud. Second, he writes this in the context of an election which has tightened up minimally. So he obviously finds this to be a winning issue on the campaign trail. Third, it would be tempting to just ignore a proposed settlement that isn’t going to happen. Conway sees political advantage in stamping on this process, which is already flailing.
The PCCC put this out with a petition, getting supporters to sign on to Conway’s vision hot dog trailer that there should be no liability release without an investigation. Conway becomes at least the sixth AG – joining Schneiderman (NY), Beau Biden (DE), Martha Coakley (MA), Catherine Cortez Masto (NV) and Lori Swanson (MN) – in objecting to a settlement without proper investigation.
Kamala Harris, California s attorney-general, hot dog trailer has called for large debt relief for strapped homeowners. About 2m California homeowners owe more on their house than it s worth, according to information provider CoreLogic.
DAVID GRAEBER: Well, one of the things that I discovered in researching my book is that the kind of debt crisis we re experiencing now, being a real debt crisis, hot dog trailer which is a debt crisis that affects ordinary people, debts between the very wealthy or between governments can always be renegotiated and always have been throughout world history. They re not anything hot dog trailer set in stone. It s, generally speaking, when you have debts owed by the poor to the rich that suddenly debts become a sacred obligation, more important than anything else. The idea of renegotiating them becomes unthinkable. In the past, though, there have been mechanisms, when things get to a point of real social crisis, that have always existed. And they vary by the period of history. In the ancient Middle East, often new kings would simply declare a clean slate and cancel all debts, or all consumer debts, commercial debts, between merchants were often left alone. hot dog trailer The Jubilee was a way of institutionalizing that. In the Middle Ages, there were bans on interest taking entirely. There have been many mechanisms. hot dog trailer
But whenever you have what I call a period of virtual credit money, when money is recognized not to be a thing like gold and silver, but a social relation or promise that people make to each other, which has become increasingly clear since the ’70s, when we went off the gold standard and I think 2008 really hot dog trailer brought that home debts can be renegotiated. They’re not set in stone. Trillions of dollars of debt was made to disappear. hot dog trailer We understand now that this is a political arrangement, and it can always be readjusted. A

PR Newswire/euro adhoc/ EANS-Adhoc: conwert okoboji iowa Immobilien Invest SE / conwert nearly doubles pre-tax income to 23.6 million EUR in 2011 ad-hoc disclosure transmitted by euro adhoc with the aim of a Europe-wide distribution. The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement. 28.03.2012 Vienna, 28 March 2012. The Austrian ATX-listed conwert Immobilien Invest SE ("conwert") met, and in part exceeded, its most important targets for the 2011 financial year. Revenues recorded by conwert rose by 55.9 % to 852.9 million EUR in 2011 (2010: 547.2 million EUR). Proceeds on the sale of properties nearly doubled year-on-year to 613.4 million EUR (2010: 325.1 million EUR) and were also slightly higher than the 2011 target of EUR 600 million EUR. At an average of 8.7 %, margins topped the IFRS carrying amount and reflected the 5 to 10 % corridor defined for 2011. Rental income rose by 11.9 % to 210.0 million EUR for the reporting year (2010: 187.7 million EUR). Revenues from property services amounted to 29.5 million EUR or 14.2 % less than the comparable prior year value of 34.4 million EUR. This development resulted from the initial full consolidation of ECO Business-Immobilien AG ("ECO") in 2011, which led to the reclassification of property services provided for ECO as internal services. With EBIT of 119.8 million EUR (2010: 103.2 million EUR), conwert not only reached, but also exceeded okoboji iowa its goal to increase earnings before interest and tax by 16.6 % over the previous year. Increased distribution through dividend and capital decrease For the 2011 financial year, the Executive Board and Administrative Board recommend a dividend of 0.20 EUR per share. This amount reflects the previously announced forecast. Furthermore, conwert plans to reduce the nominal value of issued shares from 10 EUR to 5 EUR per share through a capital decrease. This step will give the company greater flexibility for future capital measures and share buybacks. The capital decrease will result in 426.8 million EUR of reserves, which will be used in part for a distribution of 0.15 EUR per share to shareholders. These measures okoboji iowa will be placed for a vote before the annual general meeting on 31 May 2012. Management and the Administrative Board have also decided to issue a bond for retail customers to refinance the 2014 convertible okoboji iowa bond, which can be sold back to conwert in November 2012 through a put option. This bond is expected to be placed in summer 2012. Plans also call for the distribution of a dividend in 2012. The dividend is expected okoboji iowa to equal 0.20 EUR per share.

Oddly enough, with the exception of plenty machine hot dog of Common Yellowthroats, I only encounter


Other than a departure point for pelagics, it has been over 15 years since I have birded Cape Cod. Too long. Every late summer and early fall in particular, it s we really machine hot dog should get to the Cape for shorebirds, especially South Beach and Monomoy Island. Well, my visit this weekend only wet my pallet for a future, more birding-intensive visit.
I was asked to join the Leica Sports Optics team of good friends Jeff Bouton and David La Puma at their booth for the first annual Cape Cod Bird Festival. As the only Authorized Leica Optics dealer in Northern New England , I had multiple roles to play. First, it was to be the retailer of any optics sales. Secondly, I was there to use my first-hand experience in telling the story of the Critically Endangered Spoon-billed Sandpiper. Leica has recently become a leading sponsor of the international effort to save this unique species . And finally, I was there to sign some copies of my book. Oh yeah, and do some birding and beer-ing with Jeff and David, of course.
The machine hot dog weather forecasts as of Thursday suggested that some good movements of migrants were about to occur. I went to bed optimistic that the first flight would occur behind the front for Friday morning ( see previous blog entry ), but as I woke up to rain still falling, I knew that this was not to be. Therefore, I began my trek southward, stopping for a short visit at Fort Foster in Kittery. That short visit lasted a little longer than expected, as I found not one, but TWO Connecticut Warblers!
With rain still falling, I left the camera in the car. Of course, this usually results in some exceptional photographic opportunity. Yup, sure did. A Connecticut Warbler (CONW) normally machine hot dog a frustratingly machine hot dog secretive skulker in migration, walked out (the fact that it was walking, one foot in front of the other, rather than hopping itself helps to clinch the birds identity) onto a low branch at the edge of thick brush. I lamented the lack of a camera, but was enthralled with my view.
A short while later, I was even more shocked to see a second CONW walking out into the relative open! This time, I remembered that there was an iPhone in my pocket, and out of sheer desperation, I held it up to my binoculars and shot away. It actually worked a phone-binned CONW! (This, as a friend pointed out, may have been a first-ever occurrence). My best shot relatively speaking machine hot dog of course was this one.
Oddly enough, with the exception of plenty machine hot dog of Common Yellowthroats, I only encountered three migrant warblers this morning and two were CONW! (The other being my first Palm Warbler in southern Maine this fall). After stopping at Kelly s Roast Beef, I finally arrived at my destination for the weekend, The Cape Codder in Hyannis.
Meeting up with David and Jeff, we got to work, and it was nice to run into quite a few other friends over the course of the weekend. David radar guru and creator of www.Woodcreeper.com and I were (I know this will come as a surprise) glued to the NEXRAD images and wind forecasts in the evening, hoping to make a sound prediction for the hot birding.
Well, perhaps we should have tried elsewhere, as Harding Beach in Chatham was not the place to be. In fact, we tallied the reorienting migrants on one hand (although we didn t exactly make it there in time for sunrise). There weren t many passerines around the woods at Morris Island, either. Looking at the overnight radar images, and seeing that winds were light north (instead of the forecasted NW), it was obvious that the big flight out onto the Cape just didn t occur. I guess the silver lining to this was that we didn t have too hard of a time pulling ourselves away to spend the rest of the day inside.
At least I had my brand new review copy thanks machine hot dog to the good folks over at the Houghton Mifflin machine hot dog booth of the Peterson Reference Guide to Seawatching: Eastern Waterbirds in Flight by my friends Ken Behrens and Cameron Cox to page through.
Afterwards, David and I checked the radar once again. And once again, we saw birds on the radar, but few birds east of Boston. Take a look at the 1am radar and velocity images from the Boston area NEXRAD. The winds were just too light to push birds well out of Cape Cod Bay, apparently.
At least we didn t have to make a decision as to where to start the day, as the three of us were on our way to the harbor to take part in the festival s pelagic trip. Like the waters north of Cape Cod (until your reach the waters off of Mount Desert Island), the summer seabirding has been dreadfully slow overall, so expectations were not too high. The first half of the trip was living up to said low expectations, but things really picked up in the last few hours, as were well east of Cape Cod. While the least expected seabird (for the season and the area) was probably the Leach s Storm-Petrel, the highlight for me was this cooperative juvenile Long-tailed Jaeger.

Coun. Shaun O'Reilly, who sat on the last Village of Barry's Bay council that had to also find a replacement councillor, said he would like to look at the list of eligible candidates from the 2010 election. food truck chicago This is because those people have already expressed an interest in the position and have also gone through public scrutiny.
Council said there are probably two ineligible candidates (due to unfiled paperwork) which would leave eight names to discuss. If a candidate does not work out from that list, council will then look at other replacement options.

Hi COBirders, Sorry for the late post and abbreviations - but hurrying. We had NO cell phone coverag


Hi COBirders, Sorry for the late post and abbreviations - but hurrying. We had NO cell phone coverage and NOBODY else around today when we had news to share. Also - so many birds we didn't finish until 200.  Full report to follow. Anyhow - we had a very slow start in the cool, dark and moist morning, but a fallout arrived about 930. All sort of warblers but especially - CONNECTICUT WARBLER female hatch-year banded, No. Waterthrush adult, Black-and-White Warbler adult male, lots of Wilson's Warbler, of course, several MacGillivray's Warblers. Also several various poisoned candy floss empids - Dusky, Least, Hammond's Flycatchers, Cassin's Vireo, and at about 1130,  several tanagers including one with no wing bars! A SCARLET TANAGER , hatch year male.  Probably more good stuff, I just forget. About 80 birds were banded, mostly after 930, when we usually die down in numbers. I'll try to get photos up to a website soon. Good hunting and Happy Migration! Steve Brown Colorado Springs for Nancy Gobris, RMBO

Has there ever been any thought in opening one side of the ground up for these friendlies. Would be a money spinner for the club, maybe just charge a 5.00 and open the main stand. No need for tannoy etc. There have been a few this season where heard on here about the result and think I would of liked to have gone to that. These games are purely for NY to try a few things out, can't see any way the ground would be opened up to the public . . . . the poor fella gets enough grief as it is, top or not!! --------------------
 
Sounds like Powell played at the back. I remember food truck mafia reading that he played as centre half for Southport for the odd game. Definatly not a centre hal

Black-and-white Warbler


Until today, paragon 8 I had never laid eyes on the reclusive CONNECTICUT WARBLER.  I have heard them numerous times (including this spring already in Michigan) but they have always eluded me.  Well, today that changed.
I bushed-whacked through Emma McCarthy Lee Park and Brookside Park here in Ames.  After stomping paragon 8 through the forest at Brookside for a couple of hours, an adult male CONNECTICUT paragon 8 WARBLER paragon 8 popped up and perched in a small tree about 15 feet off the ground.  The giant, mondo white eye-ring was so incredibly obvious, it's not even funny.  By the time I reached for my camera, paragon 8 however, it didn't feel like being seen anymore.  I guess I have to live with that.... and so do you.
The habitat was interesting to me; it was in the middle paragon 8 of the forest but with a fairly open midlevel.  It had considerable ground-cover; a layer of nettle about 1 foot high and numerous downed tress/limbs creating some tangled areas.  Together, it made for tricky walking (wet logs you can't see are surprisingly slippery, just ask my shins).  Here is the habitat that I flushed the CONW from:
The same area was great for MOURNING WARBLERS and OVENBIRDS as well as numerous paragon 8 thrushes and other warblers. paragon 8  In fact, I tried to make this female MOURNING WARBLER into another CONW but, alas, it's definitely not.  However, this WAS the first female MOWA I had seen this spring in Iowa:
Black-and-white Warbler
The number of MOURNING WARBLERS and OVENBIRDS was impressive to me, I tallied 8 MOWAs between the two parks (4 at each).  The first four at EMLP were all singing this morning.  I estimate a total of 14 OVENBIRDS between the two parks and yet very few were heard singing. paragon 8
Thrushes were in good numbers today with easily 30+ SWAINSON'S paragon 8 THRUSHES between the two parks.  I also had 6-10 GRAY-CHEEKED THRUSHES including several that were in full-song (which was a first for me here in Iowa).  Lastly, paragon 8 I had my second VEERY of the spring at Brookside.
Empids were around in big numbers as well.  Brookside Park had at least 7-8 YELLOW-BELLIED FLYCATCHERS, some at eye level.  The ACADIAN FLYCATCHER remains at EMLP; it was singing again this morning. paragon 8  Other empids such as LEAST FLYCATCHERS and WILLOW/ALDER FLYCATCHERS paragon 8 were also numerous today.

Cory J. Gregory Elk Grove, California, United States Simply put, I'm a 30 year old birder who got hooked 20 years ago. Since then, I've been fortunate to study birds in Alaska for several summers as well as a season in northwest Hawaii. I recently finished a graduate project on Long-billed Curlews in western Nebraska and now live in the Sacramento area of California. Most photos were taken with Nikon cameras (D50, D300, P2) with either a 300mm f/4 lens (some with a 1.4 teleconverter) or a 70-300mm VR lens. I should add that I'm not a professional photographer. I do not sell photographs. For me, the important thing is birding, not getting splendid photographs of everything. View my complete profile

To stop early morning taxi stopped only after an hour of waiting came to us with tipcheto bowl head


We came from Granada to Morocco for two days. To the port of Algeciras rastaman take us by bus, painted throughout in graffiti. Port attacked us for tickets for ferry for hashish and whatnot. whirlwind sports Each offering different prices for the ferry, it was evening and we did not even know where we are going - to Ceuta or Tangier. Finally we managed to catch a ferry to Tangier penultimate 20 euros per person - our first paid transportation to now. Traveled across whirlwind sports Europe just stop or walk, not even boarded the subway. We arrived in Tangier at sunset and we were surprised that we actually arrived earlier than we left. The ferry was leaving at 18:30 and arriving from Spain to Morocco 17:30. The reason was that in Morocco have winter and summer, and now had two hours difference with Europe. On leaving the port immediately attacked us taxis, but we confident whirlwind sports that you will go on foot, walked with packs on the way. It turned out, however, that Tangier is for 40 km from the port! Just when we thought sleep along the way, we stopped a car with retractable Moroccans from Spain and took us to Tangier are not even their neighborhoods. So lucky launched our first stop in Africa.
In Tangier immediately plunged into the madness of the Orient. Even late at night all the stores and shops were working - you can buy everything - from shoes to a plasma TV or a washing whirlwind sports machine at 10 pm. But we do not need anything except shelter. There was no plan, hotels were expensive and out looked pretty dangerous. We sat on a bench tired when we spoke Moroccan whirlwind sports adult. Ask us we have shelter and food, and as you know we were very happy hitchhikers. He said that when he was young is hitchhiked around Europe for six years. He showed us where we can eat cheaply and parted. In our first attempt to eat understood that understand nothing. Immediately two of the club have taken us translate as we explained that we wanted vegetarian food took us to another restaurant nearby where there were only fish :)) refusal to explain that we do not want fish and stayed there as helped us to order salad and rice.
Later that evening we met another good Moroccan who was not trying to sell us anything, but just to talk to us. He said he lived four years in Europe - France whirlwind sports and Spain, but he was extradited from there because no documents. Journey for them in Europe was quite difficult. He himself had passed Gibraltar hidden in a truck. Sometimes you have to swim under boats. Yet he stood in Tangier and are waiting to return to Europe. 'I have to suffer to succeed'. He knew Spanish, whirlwind sports French, English and Arabic and want to learn German to go to Germany. He knew a lot about the countries in the world for people and life. He showed us beautiful places in Morocco and Africa and gave us valuable advice for our trip. "You're just lucky you were born in Europe, 'he said' because you have the freedom to travel '. Not for the first time to hear those words and think about how vulnerable all of your very birth. People are not born equal. From the place where their freedom depends born life. "In Morocco, everyone is welcome. No one needs a visa even if the Chinese '. We talked with pleasure all night and in the morning we decided to go to Fez. with satellite dishes so sure you can catch a signal from aliens ...
To stop early morning taxi stopped only after an hour of waiting came to us with tipcheto bowl head (fairly common hairstyle in Morocco) and started stopped us. We spoke in Arabic and laughing. Stopped a van loaded us back into the back and up front. Moved to the exit of the town and there continued with us - sometimes we would go, then stop. We could not understand why go with us, and where it goes. I barely managed to get out with the excuse that we're going to eat. After 15-20 minutes we took the car to the next town 45 kilometers and hence almost no wait a grandfather picked us up for Lareche. We stopped along the way to pick melons, which then turned out to be delicious. A few cars came to Fez and your evening a tent in a forest on the outskirts. Camping is quite difficult in Morocco. There are almost no forests everywhere is full of people.
Donkey lies around the corner, hoping not to load ... camel safari or camel head? Everything can be bought here ... Overall Moroccans have no respect for animals ... they are inferior beings created to serve us Cafe Clock - one of the nicest places in Fez typical atmosphere and the Internet
In the morning we drove to the center of Fez Moroccan one who actually went to Spain. Was in the opposite direction - to Tangier, but for us back in Fez and even drew us in a juice oranges. Ever getting off our car nalaziha offer us hashish, hotels and whatever else can ... It was just the beginning of the turmoil in Fez. Once we entered the medina (the old lady

Route 66A at maps.google.com marked as impassable, and googlanjem hawaiian shave ice I learned that


On Saturday, 2.7.2011., We sat on a Yamaha Tenere type of 1VJ in 1987. year and decide what we want to see, and after more than half a zaplaniranih sights we saw (Srebrenica, the northern part of the Transalpine, 100 km of gravel road by Romania, the fourth reactor of the Chernobyl power plant, Sobibor, ...), I figured out that we are not much better than the group TNT so that's idea to call travelogue "Hollow Tooth".
Yamaha has prepared the way for scissors, saddlebag mounts made from the master Joza Bukovlje, Louis's hawaiian shave ice major carrier hawaiian shave ice tobe I'm made of pieces of 40x25cm boards and I know that my scissors and CLOX hate you for that. If I CLOX asked him to do it od8mm hardened steel, while the scissors advised alloy of titanium and Chuck Norris tears. I decided to dobrostaro tree. The left saddlebag I planted somewhere, so I put in its place a large MZ backpack that is really odličnoodradio job. It should be noted and the tank panniers made by John at my plans and that we were spasileproblema with a lack of space. Each saddlebag has about 5 liters hawaiian shave ice and they are allowed hawaiian shave ice to go only soft things you need every day. The first part travelogue skipping (Bosnia and Serbia), because it was written by John anyway better than I do; Departing from the pen of Ivan B., actually now that I think John is better to write the entire itinerary, feel free to look around http://svartberg.org/ travelogue / svartobyl. Romania, day 4
After three days of brazing in Bosnia and Serbia, hawaiian shave ice we got hold of Romania and as for me the journey has just begun. Moving to Romania side was OK for us, but it lasted hawaiian shave ice over several hours for all other travelers in tin buckets on four wheels. The Romanian policeman gestured us free hit every joint in the entire column over of power plant and sent us to the free dodge. Before we left I mostly got information that Romania is a country poor, thieves and bad roads. It turned out as true, at least in part of Romania, which borders with Serbia. Another story I heard was that Romania is one of the few European countries where one can experience true wilderness. Romania is a country that is obviously built up a lot lately, so that they all main roads fresh asphalt, motels, hotels and private apartments are on every corner, hawaiian shave ice which tells me that they are recognized as Cluj Alps destination for many tourists. Of course, one can always find a gravel road and asvaltnih bad roads, but it is by secondary routes through Romania. hawaiian shave ice Everything, but everything, the main road through which we passed had a great asphalt and more importantly it had excellent horizontal and vertical signaling. Mountain roads are hectic asvaltiraju work by PS-in - concreted where possible landslides and rock right channels to drain water ... Of course, in a poor part of Romania (Danube region along the border with Serbia) may be encountered in this city :
Gas in the area are desperate, air compressor I was looking for a full 150 km, ie Samga found only when we come to town Targu Jiu. On the rare gas stations that have an air compressor, a barometer regularly broken, so I'm at a gas station hawaiian shave ice back tire inflated to 2.5 bar, while no other pumps barometer showed 3.7 bar. For the next trip, be sure to buy a pocket barometer. First sleeping in Romania we did a couple of kilometers from the border, in Orsova in the yard seemingly abandoned motel. After waking up we headed towards Baile Herculanea where we were supposed to separate the road 66A. The city itself Pestisani as from another time, approaching the city through residential čevtrt, that are cubical huge dilapidated buildings, the road is more bad than asphalt macadam, stray dogs on every corner, and the collection has more than stray dogs. It is interesting that the city is trying to be a tourist destination, because the city is above the national park and 7 of the healing thermal waters. The city center and not so awesome, but that access to the city was the film.
Route 66A at maps.google.com marked as impassable, and googlanjem hawaiian shave ice I learned that it is extremely hawaiian shave ice beautiful gravel road through a national park Valea Cernea and upto Vulcan. The actual situation is that the road is closed because asvaltira, I read that Romanian road workers that road planned asvaltirati back in 2008th year, but they were opposed by green NGOs. It seems that they have managed to sway the green and start new asphalt. We decided NEIC that road, but to continue down the road towards the city 67D Baia de Arama, and later Targu Jiu.Tek in Targu Jiu, we have managed to find a road map of Romania, so we're looking at a map and we wonder where to go next.
The original plan was to come to town Petrosani, so go to Otter Lake, where we spent the night and the morning ride slavnomcestom 67C aka. Transalpine. hawaiian shave ice But to us is that plan fell immediately go to the village by moving money out of the Transalpine. SeloNovaci the beginning of the rich, that is, the richer parts of Romania. The village is obviously a tourist mecca during the ski sezone.Napajamo the food, Pic

Go to Dakla and soon take me away. Leave me in the center and spend an hour or two to walk around.


Only ten minutes walk on desert road after crossing the border, catch a truck stop. The driver was very nice, but the conversation is not because of the language barrier. Kilometer after kilometer hoodlums to enjoy the beauty of monotony, but magical desert. The ultimate destination of the truck is a gas station, where it seems as if building a new city around. There is a hotel, Internet cafe, bank, restaurant ... and any buildings that are likely to live in the future. Internet is super fast in coffee, very surprised. After informing all home that I'm in Morocco, I head to the road and stop. Do not go for very long and it takes me a truck. Before dark we come anywhere near Dakla and the driver stops to sleep. I continue to go on the road and take me away for Dakla. There is no sense, however, to enter the city after dark, so go down about 40 km before it and managed to find a sheltered place behind a hill. That night, unlike the previous one, manage to pitch a tent, and while gently blowing in my place, it's nothing compared to the wind a few feet before and after the tent. Now I hardly see any place for a tent should always be in an area with hills, which is not an easy task in the flat Western Sahara have to go and check on each meter wind up with a licked finger in the air. :) A little stronger than tolerable wind and my tent becomes a soup. Another chilling night, sleep with all their clothes and even covered his empty backpack for more insulation. In the morning I enjoyed hoodlums a gorgeous view of the ocean in the distance and the lunar landscape around me.
Go to Dakla and soon take me away. Leave me in the center and spend an hour or two to walk around. The town is nice, though quite shiny for African standards and like bothers hoodlums me more than I feel comfortable. Somehow I have a habit of walking in towns where few people approaching me and the streets are almost empty and clean. Here and there are found Negroes from Senegal who hang out of work in parks and gardens and Stocking with who knows what. I am accosted hoodlums several, but sixth sense tells me that there are people with very good intentions and ignore them. During this walk in Dakla realize how painful already miss black Africa and what grief will live the next few months / years to get back there again. So my favorite Morocco starting to seem cool, dull and insensitive against the experience hoodlums so far ... Though not a part of Africa, there is little African here. Nasty thought of bringing me to Europe makes me choke while swallowing. Beginning not only depressed, but also feel like dandelion fluff, which brings the wind to Europe without being able to resist, and there is no wind to blow it back to Africa. Following the exit of Dakla buy fresh bread rolls to kill by eating dark thoughts. Without flagging down a car stopped next to me and the owner of the campsite offers to drive me to the exit of Dakla. Inviting me to tea at the campsite and there I met his three dogs that lead me to happy thoughts and chase the dark - I'm going home to my Robin! The man was very nice and hospitable, gave me fruit for the road and I wish success hoodlums to stop. Dakla along the coast
entrance to the city in half an hour walking two stops, hoodlums I'm on the main road and still keep up to Lajos. Last time I was in Western Sahara, reached only by Lajos where there were riots and barely got a permit to enter the city for two hours, the police would not let me. Then planned and Dakla to visit, but could not because of the problems, so now the mission was accomplished. Lajos not reach the same day, all day melt gulf desert changing stop after stop. One thing unites all the stops, however - the drivers are friendly and welcoming, typical Moroccans. Trying to hold a conversation in English-Arabic-French and of course my success rate is around hoodlums 5%, but at least we understand about the most important things. Many are happy as they recite hoodlums all visited hoodlums my Moroccan cities. roadside residents, just a sign and here's hoodlums the original :) The night before I got Lajos sleep between sand dunes right next to the road. Windy as ever and I try to find at least a little Testament. Tent not broken fortunately, but the night starts to rain (sandy desert and rain?? Hell of Misfortune am!), But you can not stick pins in the sand, so that in the morning hoodlums I have a puddle in the tent. Putting all wet and full of adhering sand, can not wait to dry because hoodlums there is no trace of sun. I can not understand what is wrong with the weather here, normal in these months should be warm and dry during the day and still is a desert, so it should always be. Low temperatures at night are normal, but the rain really surprise me much. consecutive night in the desert, this time accompanied by rain Coming Lajos find that this time there is not much excitement among the population and

Eli and Marek met again and went together on. Here this time I was wrong path and walked along the


In Ladakh again dipped in the Tibetan atmosphere. People are Buddhists, lake okoboji the mountains lake okoboji are desert and the sun never stops shining. Leh - the capital of Ladakh is crowded with tourists at this time of year. After September here you can reach only by plane. We met travelers from around the world, with some even our paths crossed not the first time. Titus - portugalkata that our shelters in Cameroon, was here. There are many Tibetan refugees. Feel positive energy, peace and tranquility. Guest House Tsavo, which stayed became our home with great international family. We had brothers and sisters from different countries. Some come, some go, but leaving all our hearts. Mom cooked us breakfast and dinner, and we sometimes helps her folds hundreds Momo's about extended family or to pick vegetables from the garden.
Lech is an enchanting lake okoboji town and we spent many days around stupas, Buddhist temples and beautiful castle on the hills around. banks and cheyndzhovete remind lake okoboji us that we are in the 21st century season peaches small but sweet Shanti Stupa
Pangong Tso went to - a beautiful alpine lake of MHB 4350, the majority of which is in Tibet (China). The lake is 120 km long and brackish lake okoboji water - almost like a sea. A tent on the banks happy and slept to the sound of light waves. Unfortunately we stayed only one day because lake okoboji the weather cooperates. Return of high pass Chang La (5360 MHB) was snowing. lake okoboji
We decided lake okoboji to make a long trek through the Himalayas magic, so different from those we had seen in Nepal. Stopping to Lamayuru two Muslim truck that went to Srinagar. The second truck preparing beans in a pressure cooker on a gas stove. Halfway we stopped, sat down on the road behind the truck and tension Sofrata. We ate beans and rice with hands like real Indians.
They left us in Lamayuru and from there we took walk 180 kilometers through the hidden valleys of Ladakh and the valley of the brand. Ten days we slept in a tent and cook on a gas tripod. Along the way there were a few villages that looked eerily empty and did not even shop. We carried all the food on his back. Five days we walked lake okoboji through beautiful valleys and passes and got Chiling - middle of the road. You had to cross the river Zanskar to continue lake okoboji along the valley of the River Brand.
Chiling expected to be a large village with a shop from which to load with food for the next few days. But there was only one house that offers lake okoboji noodles and biscuits. We made noodles and biscuits, which in the days turned into our main menu. Here we met Elisa and Marek - Spanish and Czech, which also goes to the brand. We walked together and mutual assistance crossed the Zanskar river by a rope trolley. Bridge there. Here the mountain became even drier and hotter. Walking at lunch was tegavo. The greenery was scarce and almost always surrounded by a fence. Once you have found a shadow, stopped to cool. The trail runs along the river and often had to cross it. Of course, almost no bridges and had to Japa where knee, where deeper.
Eighth day did not go well. First Gena decided to hold more extreme path that climbed in the rock, and I went into the valley, where have three times to cross the river. The crossing was not difficult, but the path of the gene suddenly over. I called him to come back, but he went on sheer cliffs that are crumbling and crashing down with a terrible roar. My heart clenched watching it. His shoes were completely broken, only need to stick with daktteyp not to crumble, and its 120-liter backpack was full and heavy. Luckily lake okoboji managed to pass the most dangerous part and path reappeared. I sat under a rock not rest in the shade for a few minutes, lake okoboji but when I looked up again - Gena was not on the path. I could not see ahead and erect. I started to cry, but only echoes answered me. I ran up the rocks to look high. Do not see him anywhere, but at least I could not see and fell down. After some searching and yelling panic had no choice but to continue. An hour later I saw him alive and well.
We passed each other a few minutes and he was going fast-forward to catch up with me. Happy continued walking with the promise not to break any more. Brand, however, we cooked more extreme surprises.
Eli and Marek met again and went together on. Here this time I was wrong path and walked along the river instead climb the cliffs above. I had it crossed but this time far more deep and lush. One by one we crossed successfully, but our joy was quickly shattered when we saw that you have to cross it again, lake okoboji even more lush and deep. First went the gene but sank into a hole and fell into the river to get away, dropped his shoes. The river carried them so fast that I could not overtake lake okoboji them. Well, that was taken sandals which continued three days. Marek was able to cross from others

Trek in the territory of Huascaran National Park and to pay a fee. Demek have to pay to go on foot.


So we already went back to Bulgaria, but the blog is still at the foot of the Cordillera Blanca. The date is May 29, the day began to move to the starting point of the trek Santa Cruz - Kashipampa village. Trek in pink, red roads
Trek in the territory of Huascaran National Park and to pay a fee. Demek have to pay to go on foot. Although we are firmly opposed to such practices easily swallow it because okoboji the price was not very high (about 60 soles), the ticket was valid for a month, and even things like we've seen before in other places and countries where tourists are only source of income. Last straw, however, when the management of the park we said that independent mountaineers tickets do not sell, but we went we paid their participation in the expedition. Their explanation was that independent travelers pollution and bonfires. Knowing the psychology of true mountaineers, okoboji who they left alone in the high mountains and Peruvians that garbage so natural phenomenon as the stars of heaven, we believe that the above argument is nonsense. okoboji Otherwise, Peruvian expedition means convoy of mules that carry luggage, tents and food. Mules to go with some amount skinner, okoboji guides and cooks, and tourists that we call colonists wear only their photo cameras. We should note that the length of the trek will chalets, pubs and spas, so if you want to be independent have everything you wear.
So greedy tour agencies and corrupt rulers left us with two options - to penetrate in the park without a ticket or find an agency in which to sell us tickets without an organized tour.
From the first agency to which Ran began mindfucking us how you think and wonder how a little money will take us and we return later, okoboji but in the next, and quite frankly unprofessional okoboji ajar us that in fact this Ordinance shall not put into practice and that guard the entrance to the park will sell tickets and without being guided and livestock.
There were other emotions. A few months before our arrival in the area during the rainy season, a lake spilled and caused a gigantic landslide that okepazilo Valley Santa Cruz, which was named after himself Trek, and made it impassable. Anywhere okoboji on the Internet, including local tourist ezhemesechnik was explained okoboji how the valley of Santa Cruz is impassable and it is possible to make only half trek by going from the point, which is usually the end of it, you get to the middle and back the same way. In said paper had material on the subject, much remind us of our native confusions.
The article read how after landslide nobody wants to give money to restore trails. Tourist agencies say they provide okoboji income from tickets and the park has to give money. By the management of the park operators argue that tourists themselves pay biletchetata and agencies only mouths bucks, but anyway there is no money because all proceeds from biletchetata go straight to Lima, and from there as you might expect, nothing is returned. Eventually we realized that Trek is accessible again and the paths were recently recovered from surrounding villages whose livelihoods depend on tourists and operation of the route.
A lesson from this story is that tourists have a little thinking, what and who makes money and how it contributes to the welfare of the local community. Obviously in this case, those who take the lion's share of tourism okoboji in the valley of the River Santa Cruz refused to take responsibility for its maintenance and development. Much greater effect okoboji on the local population would be obtained if the tourists okoboji come independent, local shuttle, shopping in the village shop, sleeping in a rural hotel or camping and rentals skinner and drivers directly from the village.
Incidentally, very helpful and informed about everything related to mountains and mountaineering were in the office of the "casa de guias" - House of drivers in the center of Huaraz. Probably represent some association of mountain guides. okoboji They were baked and surprising - very frank with good English and I'm not trying to sell us.
Having clarified the formalities remained to take care of logistics. First, we hired a huge thick warm and fluffy sleeping bags and an extra pad for Yana. We generally okoboji wear sacks but summer and after consulting with who do not, we decided that we need something more serious. Two thick bag could be fastened together so as to obtain a large double bag for Eli and Yana. I'd use both our summer each other. Dido we have not thought, because he was always too well equipped. Here our backpacks already weigh more than desirable, although we left everything unnecessary storage in x

We ate rice and hurried to get out of the bleak city. We went by truck on way to uzhansiya DOSO for


Nigeria went after we went walking bridge over the River Niger. dallas food trucks Border policewoman long questioned why we do not have a car, how we got there and we did not you afraid of lions and snakes dallas food trucks as we sleep in the woods. In Nigeria, however, there was not a lion, and snake until now we had not seen. He also said that in Nigeria multilateral dallas food trucks dangerous, but I already heard many times. Still remember our first night in Africa, Tangier Moroccan, who spent the night with crossed X Nigeria and said: "Do not go to Nigeria! There you will take everything, even shoes and leave you naked and bare ... if ever leave you live "But we are we headed right over there to check true are these stories. In fact, we had to go to Nigeria only transit visa for 7 days.
The first night we spent in Niger near the border in a palm grove and in the morning we reached the first city-Gaia. The contrast with Benin was great - again, sand again mosques and midnight prayers again harmatan dusty wind. Poverty and dirt immediately eye-catching. There were no fruits and vegetables unless unrealistically dallas food trucks expensive watermelons. The roads were still broken and the cars - even overwhelmed. They did not want or could not speak French. Apparently, many did not like the French here. Just 2-3 months ago two Frenchmen were kidnapped from a bar and killed in Niame. But otherwise, the people were nice to us and we had no problems.
We ate rice and hurried to get out of the bleak city. We went by truck on way to uzhansiya DOSO for the day been only 60 km. Way if he had not done since colonial times. Tired of lambichkane and hopping on the holes, we decided to stop to sleep and continued the next day. The first truck that passed was burkinetsat beninetsat and that took us to the border. They got 7 km before DOSO where we left before the police post. After DOSO road was getting better, but there was little movement. We stopped a Tuareg dallas food trucks who imported car from Benin. Before we let you go up asking us what we carry in a backpack and said he generally does not stop anyone. People here seem to be afraid to stop strangers, especially by making import car. I assured him that we are not criminals, even learned a little tamachek (tuarezite language here) of it, but until recently, he can not relax. When I asked him to stop in pustushtta of nightfall, he was very embarrassed, quickly drove us down and not have time to tell him goodbye. We slept Wonderful spot in the endless dry area. Night trucks and cars stopped and encroaching desert silence. As villages have no electricity, the night was a real dark. Around was quite equal as far as your eye can see and nowhere iznihvaha stone hills.
It was the only African dallas food trucks language that had writing all the hundreds of languages here (in East Africa only Ethiopian language has its own script). In Nigeria, there are over 200 different languages and neither will your writing. It's hard to imagine life without writing. dallas food trucks Tuarezite left us in a village on the crossroad of Maradi and there ate rice and filled water. Here water is another more difficult. In most villages did not even have pumps and brought out buckets of 30-meter water holes. When we find water pouring 7-8 liters which we ran for half a day.
Then we rode a Nigerian who also imported car from Cotonou. In fact, except trucks, import cars from Cotonou and a crowded reysche, no other movement. Even Nigerians preferred to cross the whole of Benin and Niger, to avoid Lagos and the Niger Delta. I finally talked to someone in English and hear Fela Kuti. Long dispute over the question of women in the Muslim world. Although he was an educated man, he felt that women can not control themselves. So you should marry earlier one to control them on time. Then they have no right to even talk to another man while their husband is entitled to take 3 more women to sleep with hundreds, if requested. Their understanding of family, love and children were totally different from ours, and it was hard to understand them. The topic was endless and the dispute was meaningless. dallas food trucks Soon dusk was falling and went down to sleep. We had another quiet night by the roadside in Niger and the next morning began the saga of the truck.
We decided that we are close to the last town - less than 80 km and the road was good, so we got on the first truck that passed and slowly headed that way. We stopped at the first village to help another truck to replace my tire. Then they changed the tire proved that we can not flammable. We were out of gas. The truck, of course, there were no sensors on top of the gear lever did not work hard and switch with great power and very scratchy. Our driver got the other truck and went in search of fuel. We waited an hour or so in the village where we ate local pancakes and poured water from the pump. The villages dallas food trucks were small and people-very nice.

From the equatorial jungles of Gabon warp to the highest mountains in the world - Nepal. The change


From the equatorial jungles of Gabon warp to the highest mountains in the world - Nepal. The change was not only the climate, but also cultural, stove top popcorn linguistic and gastronomic. More from the airport we were met Vishnu with his girlfriend Sophie CouchSurfing and helped us navigate the new environment. We fell in Nepal at a glance. After Kathmandu Africa seem like a city of plenty. You could buy whatever you want and quite cheap. Stores equipment were loaded with everything, and the food delicious and varied. stove top popcorn We tried a lot of everything stove top popcorn and we could not satiate Nepalese specialties. Immediately gave the lens and computer repair for a day or two ready! We stayed two days with Vishnu, who had gone quite on the mountains and explain possible routes. We, of course, stove top popcorn I wanted to see Everest and its neighboring highest peaks on Earth. Everest, Sagarmatha Nepali or Chomolungma Sherpa language, was quite far away. We did not want to fly to Lukla, as did more than 90% of tourists visiting the national park "Sagarmatha". Chose to travel 12 hours by bus and walk six days walk to Lukla, as did the first expeditions to Everest. In fact, the very first expeditions set out to walk straight from Kathmandu. Because of the mountainous terrain, roads in northern Nepal almost gone, and the few roads were more extreme than the transition itself. Just imagine how the bus travels 120 km in 12 hours without almost stops moving. We decided that enough amazing adventure and no need to stop. Started enthusiastically preparing for the trek - permiti, tickets, equipment and essentials. Guide and porter are not mandatory, but the fees for national park out 30 euros per person. It would be the longest transition in our lives - almost 30 days walking in the mountains. We had to be ready for anything. We moved to another kauchsarfar - Manji, who also was a hitchhiker and even wrote in a local magazine column for hitchhiking. It turned out pretty cool tipche, stove top popcorn familiarize ourselves with other collars Automatic pipette tips and took our interview for the magazine.
In late May, we went to the Himalayas. The adventure began with a 12 hour trip by bus. The road was narrow, porednitsa of U-turns crawling on steep slopes, stove top popcorn and the bus bounces like a safari. Everyone was jumping in my seat like a wild horse ride, and the man behind us would not stop vomiting noisily while the bus was rolling on the edge of a sheer cliff. All this comes amid cheerful Nepali music with singers with voices stove top popcorn so thin, as if they had breathed helium. Definitely not a trip for the faint of heart and weak stomachs. No need to explain that the driver was a whiz and missed by opposing buses and trucks on the single-sideband time of magic.
Reached successfully Shivalaya where the road svarshvashe.Ot now on, everything is carried on the back of porter. Starting from building materials for houses such as doors, windows and roofs through to meat, biscuits and cooking gas. A porter carried to 150 kg on his forehead stove top popcorn for days. And do not look healthy and big people. We were armed with large stocks of food, because we knew that the more you go, the more expensive it becomes. Otherwise we ate in Bath Lodge Dal-rice with lentils, potatoes and spinach, the best Nepali meal because it eat you pour a second stove top popcorn and sometimes a third time. Lodge had almost every hour and offering bed 0.50lv night. We left the tent that anyway it was not for the monsoon season. Now he was beginning to rain and almost no tourists. Especially in the section to Lukla, which all fly by plane. And we had to go six days up and down. The trail climbed highest to 3500mnv and went down to 1500mnv in high pass and low valleys, through rivers and villages with different ethnic groups. People were very hardworking and hamlets alike Alpine - clean and tidy stone houses and tidy gardens. It was amazing how the grading and the steepest stove top popcorn slopes planted to rice, potatoes and vegetables. The houses are huge and massive, made of stone, who was hard whittling hand and carries on his back. It is incredible diligence, patience and endurance with which local people have done this. Most of their food grow their own, were brought from the brooks that flowed running water and electricity was made from sun or river. In a word was almost independent of oil, vehicles and the civilized world. Strange feeling to go a month without seeing a single car, and so many villages. The people here are Buddhists stove top popcorn and respect nature and animals. Do not kill animals, not kill even leeches, flies or mice. Eat meat only if someone else killed him. Indeed, animals do not fear, and flies were so quiet that he could push them with your finger without fly. Sometimes birds perched directly on us. We saw some wild deer, but they quickly fled. Otherwise, Dr.

Togo - finally back to the ocean. Finally a truly green side. Togo went fairly quickly with jokes by Burkinskata border police and the subsequent Togoliyski colleagues on Berbatov and Hristo Stoichkov, who were the only association with Bulgaria:) Once we were called "tubab" in North Africa, then became "Nasara" here already We had a new name - "Jovo". So called atlanta food trucks white children sang a song for us after Jovo "Jovo, Jovo good day, how are you? Thank you!"
Another noticeable difference Burkina is that as Muslims here are a few bars have become very. In every village, however small, may not have bread, atlanta food trucks but at least there is a bar. Drinking is the most local beer and some local gin made from palm trees and having a taste of hot brandy firstfruits. (Liter cost about 3 lev)
Immediately shiny jeep took us to the first city Dapaong 40km from the border. Was the owner of a chain of pharmacies in the area and again with a personal driver. The good thing was that he knew English and let us local music. Once you leave us at the beginning of the city to the pharmacy, the need to go all the way to its end, which was not less. After a long wait stopped truck without even are its neighborhoods. There were three nice togoliytsi not even know French, but got along perfectly with the international language of gestures and smiles. Wanted to leave us 20-something kilometers before the town of Mango to go camping and the next morning. Napalihme his fire and his nagotvihme wonderful rice and then we watched a movie:) In the morning we took another truck to Mango after rapid examination of town and sure to have breakfast at the local restaurant, we continued.
The road was narrow with huge holes and mountain areas with curves. Almost no movement apart from many bikes and trucks. atlanta food trucks The trucks were super old and broken and so overwhelmed, tied by any means anywhere, inclined to one side, almost swooning only on slopes. Almost every kilometer I see a bad truck on the road, sometimes with scattered overturned load around. Once a stop near one such injured truck driver atlanta food trucks and came to talk to us. He said that six days waiting on the road to come help someone.
Mango Mercedes took us to a police officer and a civilian inside. Hardly spoke and took us to Kara, a city that had a small mountain, which we thought to walk for several days. When we came, however, the driver said "Give me 5,000 francs." I told him that we stop and told us that we have to pay. "This is Africa. Nothing is for free "- answered. We explained that all the way here we passed the stop and we never paid. They could not believe it. We told them that we publish pictures and stories on the internet for the entire journey if you do not believe you can read. They asked us we take any money for it. "We do bezplatnno" I said. The officer threatened us that if we do not pay will lead us to the station. We told them, 'OK, let's go to the station. " However, they gave up and left. The car was not a taxi and we had no right to ask for money. There are taxis with yellow number.
Buy food, filtered water, and started up the hills. We went 1-2 hours and started to get dark. Succeeded after a long search to find a place for tent among floored gardens. atlanta food trucks The next day we bought papayas and bananas from local and continued upward. We passed through several atlanta food trucks villages and nobody worried about anything. Often even invited us to drink with them local beer and gin and eat with them. All greeted us with welcome, but nobody wanted "Caddo" or money, nobody attacked us offers something. In fact there was not even camping or hotel throughout the mountain and only found where to eat fufu in the only restaurant in one of the villages. Fufu is a local dish that is made from inyam (large vegetable-like taste of potato) and fought for hours with a wooden bat. Looks like raw dough and eaten with hands like melted atlanta food trucks sauce. We ate and went to the top. We were sleeping just below the summit, atlanta food trucks but there was no place for a tent and slept just heard. The view around was strange. The whole mountain was blown. There is a tradition to burn everything in the dry season to fertilize the soil and to clean dry pot. In all countries, until now the land around was burned (even in national parks).
The next day we climbed the top and back into the village to eat fufu again. We were on the 20th km of the city and started to walk back. After an hour of walking we rode pickup back in the body, because inside was full of tomatoes. Leave us in Kara, which was quite a big city and had to walk hours to go and sleep outside the city. We found a wonderful place to sleep on a large scale. The next morning, after hours of waiting on the empty road took us to the 20th man for miles. Ate fufu in the village where we left and continued. After another long wait took us in the back pickup to the next town Sokod
