It is no secret: Oregon is one of the most naturally beautiful places in the entire United States. From miles of stunning Pacific Ocean coastline to mountains, lakes, forests, rivers, waterfalls, sand dunes, streams, and more, Oregon is a paradise for nature lovers and adventurers alike.
If you’re visiting Oregon for the first time, or you have lost count of how many times you have been, there is always a different, beautiful spot to explore for the first time.
Whether you’re looking for a different beach or a new favorite Oregon Coast town, are ready to challenge yourself to a more difficult hiking or mountain biking trail, want to hop on a boat to catch a fresh dinner, or are simply looking for a scenic place to take a drive and clear your head, Oregon has it all (and then some).
If you find yourself looking for a new place to explore in Oregon, the following list of unique and beautiful spots throughout the state is a great place to start. Here are 37+ things to do in Oregon that we know you’ll love.
CRATER LAKE NATIONAL PARK
Located in southern Oregon’s Cascade Mountains, Crater Lake National Park has plenty of natural beauty to offer. Designated as a national park by President Theodore Roosevelt in 1902 — the sixth national park at the time — the area’s natural history started millennia before.
The star of the show is Crater Lake itself. Formed by the collapse of volcanic Mt. Mazama following an explosion more than 7,700 years ago, Crater Lake is now the deepest lake in the United States (and one of the deepest in the world). With famously clear blue water that comes mainly from precipitation, stunning panoramic views, and natural wonders like Wizard Island, Crater Lake is not to be missed.
Visitors can also enjoy the lake by driving the 33-mile Scenic Rim Drive, with multiple points to pull over and take in the panoramic views. Whether you drive (or bike) it yourself or take the Crater Lake Trolley, this can be a great way to see the lake and its surroundings. If you prefer to get out on the water itself, boat tours are available as well.
COLUMBIA RIVER GORGE
If TLC hasn’t convinced you otherwise, the Columbia River Gorge, located just 30 miles outside of Portland, is a great place to go chasing waterfalls. Ninety major waterfalls can be found in this 80-mile area, including the famous and beloved Multnomah Falls. As the largest National Scenic Area in the United States, the waterfalls are just the start of natural wonders to be found across these 80 miles.
Likely due in part to its proximity to Portland, the Columbia River Gorge is an extremely popular area and parts can get crowded, especially during peak tourist seasons. There are plenty of more secluded trails to explore for some peace and tranquility however, and you may even stumble upon smaller waterfalls you can enjoy all by yourself.
Thrillseekers can find plenty of adventures to be had in the area as well – from mountain biking and hiking to watersports and more. The Columbia River, running through the 4000-foot deep gorge, is the fourth largest river in the United States and packs a powerful punch.
Located a breathtakingly memorable 2-hour drive from Portland, Mt Hood is the highest mountain in Oregon. The peak calls the Cascades Mountains home, specifically Mount Hood National Forest, while offering a variety of unique experiences, notably including the possibility of hitting the ski slopes nearly year round.
The Mount Hood National Forest spans more than one million acres of land between the Columbia River Gorge and the Willamette National Forest. The entire area beckons explorers looking for a new adventure.
Hikers and mountain bikers can find trails that vary in lengths and difficulty levels, but all still offer remarkable views. If you prefer a less active experience, do not neglect a Mt. Hood Scenic Byway drive.
Wine lovers: rejoice! With more than 700 wineries and nearly 1,000 vineyards, the Willamette Valley is your spot for delicious Oregon wine. Oregon’s own wine country is especially proud of its Pinot Noirs, but it is also the ideal climate for several other varieties of grapes.
The Willamette Valley is composed of four regions, spanning 150 miles from roughly Portland to Eugene. Nestled between two mountain ranges (the Cascades and the Coast Range), the area is marked by the Willamette River running through the valley. Each of the four regions – the North Valley, the Mid-Valley, the South Valley, and the West Cascades – all offer unique experiences.
Beyond enjoying a glass (or two) of local wine, other popular activities in the Willamette Valley range from visiting covered bridges to hiking, fishing, biking, and more.
Upon arrival at the base of this waterfall, it is easy to see why this is one of the most popular attractions in the entire Pacific Northwest region. Located a mere 30-minute drive from Portland in the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area, Multnomah Falls is the tallest waterfall in the state of Oregon, with water tumbling more than 600 feet.
After parking, it’s a 5 minute walk to the base of the waterfall, or walk a bit farther to experience the falls from Benson Bridge.
Still not satisfied with the view? Hike another (steep) mile to reach the top of Multnomah Falls for the full experience, and to also be rewarded with amazing views of the Columbia River Gorge.
OREGON COAST AQUARIUM
While the Oregon Coast Aquarium itself may be man made, it is a prime spot for viewing and experiencing a wide array of sea life. Located along the central Oregon coastline in Newport, the aquarium is one of the most popular tourist attractions in the state.
Visitors are welcomed with interactive exhibits, and the option to purchase a behind the scenes tour or up close and personal sea animal encounter. Certified as a Sensory Inclusive facility, the aquarium seeks to provide a peaceful and joyful experience for all guests.
PAULINA LAKE HOT SPRINGS
Located near the underrated Newbury National Volcanic Monument in the Deschutes National Forest near Bend, Paulina Lake Hot Springs is worth the short hike. While nothing fancy, the area is quite secluded, which offers an even more serene experience. The hot springs pools are fairly small, and the water is often described as being warm instead of as hot — which makes it a great choice for families.
Visitors can choose to get to the hot springs by way of a hike that is just over 1 mile, or a longer 7.5-mile scenic hike. It is also possible to get to the hot springs by water, for those exploring the lake by kayak or boat. Regardless of how you get there, a soak in the Paulina Lake Hot Springs can help you feel refreshed and invigorated to get back out the same way.
WASHINGTON PARK PORTLAND
This large park in Portland is a favorite of locals and visitors alike. Home to popular attractions including the Oregon Zoo, Portland Japanese Gardens, and the International Rose Test Garden, it is hard to visit Portland without finding yourself in Washington Park at least once.
With 410 acres, there is lots more for the whole family to explore beyond just the popular attractions. Bring a picnic, wander through Hoyt Arboretum, or let the little ones burn some energy on a truly impressive playground.
While the park is free to visit, there is an hourly fee to park. Since parking is extremely limited, take advantage of Portland’s robust public transportation system for easy access to the park and use the Washington Park Free Shuttle to make your way around while you are there.
Esteemed as perhaps the most authentic Japanese garden outside of Asia, this is the perfect spot for a tranquil, serene afternoon in Portland’s Washington Park. With eight distinct garden spaces, art exhibitions, and a cafe serving Japanese tea and pastries, the grounds exude peace.
Stroll around ponds, cross streams by footbridge, contemplate a raked sand and stone garden, and weave through a variety of trees, bushes, shrubs, flowers, and plants throughout the garden.

For a truly unique experience, head to Thor’s Well in Yachats. Located along the Oregon Coast near Cape Perpetua, this well appears to be a drain for the ocean. Appearing to be bottomless (though it actually is not), this natural hole is especially mesmerizing at high tide or when a storm is blowing in.
A word of warning: Thor’s Well can be dangerous, so wear good shoes, pay close attention, and exercise caution as you explore and witness this amazing natural wonder.
TERWILLIGER HOT SPRINGS
Also known as the Cougar Hot Springs, clothing is optional at the seemingly almost hidden Terwilliger Hot Springs in Willamette National Forest.
After a short (less than half a mile) hike to the hot springs, you will find multiple cascading pools ranging in temperature as the water tumbles down from pool to pool.
SEA LION CAVES
Located an hour and a half from Eugene, this attraction on the Oregon Coast is one you will not forget anytime soon. Approximately 11 miles north of Florence, this private wildlife preserve and bird sanctuary is where many Stellar sea lions call home.
Visitors can descend more than 200 feet by elevator into the Sea Lion Caves to see if the sea lions are home, and watch them go about their household duties if they are. The sea lions are wild, meaning they are free to come and go as they choose, and are more likely to be home in the caves during winter months.
You may also catch a glimpse of the sea lions’ neighbors: whales have been known to stop nearby for a visit, as well as many species of birds.

Located less than an hour from Bend in the Deschutes Canyon-Steelhead Falls Wilderness Study Area, it is just a half mile hike to Steelhead Falls, where the Deschutes River puts on a stunning display as it cascades down 20 feet.
Steelhead Falls is also well known to thrill-seekers who come here to cliff jump, a very popular activity at the base of the falls. Surrounded by 25 to 30 foot high cliffs, there are plenty of opportunities to (cautiously) dive into the Deschutes.
Proxy Falls is a breathtaking waterfall is located in the Willamette National Forest. Bring the kids on this 1.5-mile hike loop with a stunning reward, as this waterfall drops more than 200 feet in the Cascade Mountains.
Since the waterfall is so large, prime viewing spots are actually a bit of a distance back, but there are trails that take you to the base of the falls if you do want to get closer.
This premiere spot for water sports is, not surprisingly, known for its water. Crystal clear and a shade of blue you must see to believe, getting on the water is a uniquely beautiful experience at Clear Lake. Located in the Willamette National Forest, this lake is one of the coldest in the Cascade Mountains.
Popular for fishing, canoeing, freshwater diving (there’s a preserved forest located underwater), kayaking, stand-up paddle boarding, and more, there is plenty to do on and near Clear Lake.
TUBE DESCHUTES RIVER
One of the most popular warm weather activities in Bend is tubing the Deschutes River downtown. The popular stretch for floating through the heart of Bend is found between the Old Mill District and Drake Park, with tube rental and a shuttle available.
Don’t forget the sunscreen, sturdy water shoes, and plenty of water for your journey. Bend is a super fun city in Oregon, and it’s worth it to make plans to explore it. Plan a stop at the original Deschutes Brewery Public House in downtown Bend for a cold drink after your float.
As the second tallest mountain in Oregon, Mount Jefferson is a sight to behold, as are the 5 glaciers surrounding it. The Mount Jefferson Wilderness Area covers more than 100,000 acres in the Willamette National Forest, with more than 160 miles of trails and 150 lakes.
The mountain itself is considered to be quite difficult and even dangerous in many parts, so be sure to exercise caution. Be sure not to miss the 40 miles of the beloved multi-state Pacific Crest Scenic Trail that passes through the Mount Jefferson Wilderness.
LEWIS AND CLARK NATIONAL AND STATE HISTORIC PARKS
America’s favorite explorers reached the end of their long journey in Oregon, an accomplishment celebrated throughout the state. The Lewis and Clark National Historic Park spans 40 miles across parts of Oregon and Washington, with 12 noteworthy sites included.
The largest piece of the park is located near Astoria, in the northwest corner of Oregon. Visitors can explore a replica of Fort Clatsop, where the Corps of Discovery spent a winter after arriving in Oregon in the early 1800s.
Astoria, a beloved town along the Oregon Coast, has been a favorite for multiple generations — even before The Goonies was filmed here. Considered one of the best art towns in the United States, there is plenty to see and do.
Popular for natural attractions like Haystack Rock on Cannon Beach, it is easy to see why this town nestled alongside the Pacific Ocean has won accolades over the years.
Be sure to spend time viewing the tide pools, looking for puffins, and catching a sunset, before building a beach campfire.
OREGON DUNES NATIONAL RECREATION AREA
Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area is a truly unique area, compared to many of the others on this list. Located in the Siuslaw National Forest, this area stretches approximately 40 miles between Florence and Coos Bay, along the Pacific Ocean coastline.
With sand dunes piled as high as 500 feet above sea level, there are plenty of ways to enjoy the area with ATV and dune buggy rides, sandboarding, and horseback riding topping the list.

FORT STEVENS STATE PARK
Located at the mouth of the Columbia River, Fort Stevens State Park is the site of a former military installation still marked by a military museum. Visitors can explore Fort Stevens, which was used in the Civil War era to guard the Columbia River, or check out the shipwrecked Peter Iredale.
A popular campground, this park offers a variety of recreational activities. Bordered by the Pacific Ocean on one side, you’ll find several miles of trails, a disc golf course, and Coffenbury Lake offer additional activities throughout the park.
JOHN DAY FOSSIL BEDS
Located in Central Oregon, the John Day Fossil Beds National Monument is one of the richest fossil beds on the continent. Broken up into three units, the Painted Hills, Sheep Rock, and Clarno, the fossil record here tells the story of tens of millions of years.
Each of the three units has a set of hiking trails with unique things to see on each. The Painted Hills trails are by far the most popular, with absolutely stunning views of the brightly hued hills.
The Enchanted Forest is an amusement park that has been located 7 miles south of Salem for more than 50 years. Open annually from late March through late September, this amusement park is nestled within an actual forest, which absolutely adds to the experience and is a key feature of the park.
Attractions include Storybook Lane, Tofteville Western Town, Old European Village, a Comedy Theatre, and more. Rides include a log ride, a bobsled roller coaster, and more for children of all ages to enjoy.
FROOT LOOP TRAIL
The Hood River Froot Loop is a trail of farm stands, orchards, vineyards, and more along a 35 mile loop near Mount Hood. Each of the places along the trail offer a wide variety of treasures including fruits, vegetables, wine, cider, flowers, and more. Some stands are connected to orchards who offer U-pick options, typically between June and October.
Located an hour outside of Portland, the Froot Loop Trail is not to be missed for those road tripping through the Columbia River Gorge and looking for a fun experience.
CRABBING IN WALDPORT
Located along the Alsea Bay, Waldport is a prime crabbing destination. With a plethora of Dungeness crabs in the water and a free crabbing dock open to the public, catching dinner here is almost too easy.
Please do note there are regulations to follow, and you will likely need to obtain a license to go crabbing in Oregon.
WALK ST JOHNS BRIDGE
Cross the Willamette River in Portland by foot on the beautiful and historic St. Johns Bridge. The bridge was built intentionally to be beautiful as well as functional, so taking the time to walk across gives you ample opportunity to explore the aesthetically pleasing elements.
The walk can be a smidge precarious, as the sidewalk across the bridge is not protected from traffic, so be sure to keep an eye on your surroundings, especially if you are photographing the bridge.
CASCADE LAKES SCENIC BYWAY
The Cascade Lake Scenic Byway is a 66-mile drive through Central Oregon, that starts in Bend before weaving through Deschutes National Forest. Simply driving the byway will be a treat in and of itself, with stunning mountain and lake views to be had throughout the drive. If you want a more hands-on experience, there are adventures of varying levels accessible along the way.
Get out of the car and stretch your legs with a hike or bike ride on one of the many trails near the byway. Stop at one of the many lakes you’ll pass to kayak, stand-up paddle board, or fish. Bring a picnic and you will have no trouble finding a lovely spot to enjoy it.
At a minimum, it is recommended to plan 3-5 hours to travel this scenic byway.
Yachats has been named one of the top ten coolest small towns in America, and is often referred to as “the gem of the Oregon Coast.” Nestled between the Pacific Ocean and the Siuslaw National Forest, this area is rich with natural beauty.
While you are less likely to find pristine sandy beaches here, that is part of what makes this tiny town so distinct. The coastline is quite unique, due to being made up of black basalt.
The town itself is small – fewer than 1000 people call it home – which makes it a great destination to get away, unplug, and get lost in nature. Don’t worry, though: there are plenty of great restaurants and places to stay in the area.
SMITH ROCK STATE PARK
Located in Central Oregon near Bend, Smith Rock State Park features stunning and unique rock formations. Formed by ash from volcanic explosions millions of years ago that hardened into rock, the Crooked River eventually carved its way through.
Smith Rock is a great destination for thrill seekers, with rock climbing and slacklining welcomed and encouraged. For the slightly less adventurous, take in the views from one of the hiking, running, or biking trails.
SILVER FALLS STATE PARK
Affectionately known as the “crown jewel of the Oregon State Parks system,” Silver Falls State Park is the largest state park in Oregon and is absolutely a treasure. Known for the abundance of waterfalls waiting to be stumbled upon, Silver Falls State Park is located in the lower Cascade Mountains, approximately 60 miles south of Portland.
The Trail of Ten Falls is an almost 7-mile loop that takes hikers past the promised ten waterfalls. For a unique experience, go behind the powerful South Falls to see what a waterfall looks like from that angle.
Visitors can also find horse trails, campsites, playgrounds, and bike paths.
OREGON CAVES NATIONAL MONUMENT
Tucked away near the California border in Southern Oregon’s Siskiyou Mountains, the Oregon Caves National Monument and Preserve is a protected area.
Cave tours are offered seasonally, with a park ranger as your guide. Dress warmly, as the temperature is consistently cool, and don’t forget to wear good shoes. Spelunkers may be able to participate in a seasonal three hour long, physically demanding “off-trail” tour that is designed to teach caving techniques as you explore the Oregon Caves.
If crouching and squeezing through tight spaces isn’t your speed, the area also has multiple hiking trails through the surrounding forests. These trails provide great views of both the monument and the surrounding Siskiyou Mountains.
HIGH DESERT MUSEUM
Consistently ranked as the favorite thing to do in Bend, the High Desert Museum tells the story of the natural world and cultural history of the region. Get up close and personal with area wildlife, follow the journey of the Plateau Indian Nations, and hitch a ride on a wagon trekking the Oregon Trail.
With both indoor and outdoor exhibits, visitors are treated to experiences including a living history turn-of-the-century homestead and sawmill, birds of prey center, and desertarium, as well as temporary exhibits that change often.
YAQUINA HEAD LIGHTHOUSE
The Yaquina Head Outstanding Natural Area juts out into the Pacific Ocean nearly one mile from the Oregon Coast, just north of the town of Newport. Oregon’s tallest lighthouse is still functional, nearly 150 years after it was erected.
Tours of the lighthouse may be available, but simply viewing the lighthouse from the ground is an experience worthy of the trek itself. Check out a tidepool, watch birds dance through the sky, and potentially catch a glimpse of a whale from Yaquina Head.
Surf’s up at the Devils Punchbowl State Natural Area located approximately 8 miles north of Newport. Surfers can often find optimal conditions to catch a wave in this area.
The area gets its name from a hollow rock formation that looks like a giant punch bowl. As waves crash towards shore, especially at high tide, the full punch bowl looks more like a cauldron with water violently brewing.
At low tide, visitors may be able to actually enter Devils Punchbowl from the beach, but be sure to get out long before the tide starts coming in, as this is one place you would not want to be trapped inside.
THE ROGUE VALLEY
The Rogue River carves through this valley in Southern Oregon, from Crater Lake to the Pacific Coast. Along the way are bustling small towns, many vineyards and wineries (thanks to ideal grape growing conditions), farmers markets galore, and plenty of great bites along the Rogue Valley Food Trail.
With an exceptionally pleasant climate, outdoor activities like golf and rafting are quite popular in the Rogue Valley. Bordered by mountain ranges, there are plenty of hiking opportunities in the area as well.
HORSEBACK RIDING ON THE BEACH IN BANDON
Visit the beach from a whole new vantage point: on horseback. Bandon Beach, located on the southern Oregon Coast, is a beloved spot for a horseback ride you won’t soon forget.
The Bandon Beach Riding Stables offer approximately one hour long rides throughout the day, weather permitting. For a special romantic experience, be sure to inquire about booking a seasonal sunset ride.
WOODEN SHOE TULIP FESTIVAL
The Wooden Shoe Tulip Festival takes place each spring at the Wooden Shoe Tulip Farm in Woodburn, located less than an hour south of Portland. Welcome the season with 40 acres of tulips, in bloom from mid-March through the first of May, with peak bloom typically sometime in April.
Bring a picnic, grab a glass of wine at the on-site vineyard’s tasting room, and enjoy the rows of colorful blooms with Mount Hood looming in the background. Arrive early, as the farm often fills up quickly (especially during peak bloom).
OREGON MUSEUM OF SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY
One of the top science museums in the United States, there is something for everyone to enjoy at the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (OMSI). Hands-on exhibitions are tailored for those as young as 0-6 years old all the way through adults to enjoy, with a particular emphasis on activities for children.
Families can enjoy a visit to the planetarium, step aboard and check out a retired submarine docked on the Willamette River outside, conduct experiments and test hypotheses in labs, and more. If you’re traveling to Portland as a family, this is one attraction to be certain you do not miss.
LAVA RIVER CAVE
Finally, explore the longest continuous lava tube in Oregon at the Lava River Cave, located within the Newberry National Volcanic Monument. Descend underground to get up close and personal with a reminder of the volcanic activity that shaped much of the region.
Located approximately 15 miles south of Bend in the Deschutes National Forest, visitors are welcome to take self guided tours of this mile long lava tube. Dress warm, bring a fully charged light source, and wear good shoes as you will be walking across uneven surfaces for an average of an hour and a half.
Due to conditions in the cave becoming potentially dangerous and treacherous during winter, the cave is only open seasonally. Don’t be tricked, however: no matter how warm it is outside, it will still be cold in the cave.
What is the number 1 tourist attraction in Oregon?
The number 1 tourist attraction in Oregon is Crater Lake National Park. Crater Lake is the deepest lake in the United States, and the beautiful blue water is a sight to behold.
What is Oregon best known for?
Oregon is best known for its beauty and amazing outdoor recreation. From Crater Lake to Mount Hood, there are plenty of natural outdoor adventures to participate in here.
What month is the best to visit Oregon?
If you’re looking to spend the most time outdoors in Oregon, the best months to visit are the summer months. From mid-June to mid-August, temps are mild, making it a great time to participate in all the outdoor activities Oregon has to offer.

Photography and Food
Esja Travel’s Special Interest Tours
Iceland is one of the most amazing treasure troves in the world when it comes to landscape photography. Summers are characterised by brilliant greens, blacks and blues and winters with great black and white opportunities and northern lights.
Iceland is also well known for both its fresh fish caught in the Atlantic Ocean, its free-ranging sheep and its genetically superior milk products.
Are you a professional or amateur photographer? Look no further. Iceland is the right country for any landscape photographer. Esja Travel has put together 1-, 2-, 3- and 6-day itineraries which include the highlights of the southern part of the country—arguably the best photographic area in Iceland.
The tours include some classic waterfalls, such as Gullfoss, Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss. Gullfoss is always impressive because of its size; Seljalandsfoss has a path behind it for an unusual angle; and Skógafoss is a classic waterfall with perfect proportions. On sunny days one can expect a rainbow in all of the waterfalls.
The route also covers each one of the country’s major glaciers. It also includes the world-famous Jökulsárlón glacial lagoon, some black sandy beaches and sea stacks. This programme is tried and tested and participants have given it rave reviews.
Local Food Tours
Are you a fan of tasty, healthy food or interested in submersing yourself in Iceland’s food culture? Esja Travel has put together two different programmes to suit the traveller who’s ready to look behind the scenes and taste some of the local fare. The first programme concentrates on fish and the second programme focuses on farm products, such as the Icelandic lamb.
Iceland prides itself on its pollution-free air and water. Fish is and has been the main export from Iceland since around 1400. Fish caught in the Atlantic Ocean include cod, haddock, halibut and rose fish—to name but a few of the most important species.
The Icelandic lamb is of excellent quality and is free-ranging in the summer. In fact, one of the oldest still-surviving customs in Iceland is to round up the sheep in the autumn after they’ve nurtured themselves grazing on the short-lived, but nutritious, arctic grasses and mosses.
Cow’s milk in Iceland has a unique enzyme composition, which is why very few people in Iceland suffer from lactose intolerance.
ESJA Travel provides a personalised service to meet every guest’s expectations. Esja is a licensed tour operator and travel agency which specialises in scheduled and private sightseeing tours, adventure activities, food and photography tours.

Helped clear my dog’s plaque in under a week, this is some amazing stuff. Dog didn’t previously have any hard chews but he knew exactly what to do after some initial confusion! My dog loves this stuff and it has helped with his anxious behaviour, he no longer bites his own paws when bored and this also curbed his hyperactivity.
This is a great quality product and works as intended. I use it daily and tastes well. Thank you so much for this. It was made of high quality ingredients with great benefits. Plus the packaging and sizes were perfect for my dog. He loves the smell and the looks of it. Works well, keeps him entertained for long. I look forward to purchasing another one!
I always wanted to try this for my dog ever since I saw it on tiktok. It smells like yak cheese I used to eat, and I think my dog is interested. Because it is so firm he can't devour it like other chews, but he would focus on it for a long period of time when given. It's been two days and he barely made a dent. He is a little short of 15 pounds, and the size of it does feel huge for him but he doesn't seem to have an issue with it and I think overall he enjoys it.
great quality product. it really works as intended. Will definitely get more soon! Thank you so much for this. it was made of high qualiy ingredients. Plus the packaging and sizes were perfect. over all good quality. i love the smell and the looks of it. im looking forward to purchasing another one!
Good quality of product, great scent , good texture and package . Hope it will useful and show some improvement. Happy to have it one after this as backup since fit size. Thanks iherb to provide benefit item to consumer. Tq
My dogs loved it! I tried so many brands but this one by far is the best! I highly recommend this brand and the hard chews variant. My dogs finished them in 2 days. It kept them occupied and helped with dental care as well.

Zaporizhzhia city authorities allegedly commissioned the reconstruction of buildings damaged in Russian attacks at overblown prices, and after non-transparent tenders, an investigation by Hromadske published on Oct. 26 said.
Over 500 houses were damaged in Russian strikes on the city, and eight high-rise buildings suffered especially severe damage. The city authorities reportedly allocated Hr 350 million ($10 million) for the reconstruction work in 2023, while the state added an additional 815 million (over $20 million).
As a result, one year's budget for the city's restoration amounted to over Hr 1 billion (around $30 million), Hromadske said.
The news outlet drew attention to a number of violations and suspicious steps in the reconstruction process. Some companies won their contracts without a proper tender, building materials were procured at a higher-than-market value, and some of the firms had connections to former local officials or other politicians, Hromadske said.
For example, the restoration of one building on Sobornyi Avenue in the city's center reportedly cost around Hr 330 million (over $9 million). The journalists said that the cost of restoring a damaged flat in the building – $300,000 – turned out to be much higher than the average price of buying a new one.
Mykola Bielyi, the city's local deputy quoted by Hromadske, noted that it is possible to buy "over 150 apartments on Zaporizhzhia's secondary market" for $4 million. That is less than half of the sum spent on the one building on Sobornyi Avenue, where, as Bielyi said, only 24 apartments were damaged.
Zaporizhzhia Acting Mayor Anatolii Kurtiev told Hromadske that it is misleading to count the prices by a single apartment: "I am telling you again, this is a complete housing complex... Renovating a building is generally more costly than a new building."
The city of Zaporizhzhia, lying only around 40 kilometers north of the front line, often suffers destructive and deadly attacks by Russian forces.

Stunning original oil paintings of Cornish Beaches by Duncan Palmar who is an Associate of the acclaimed Royal Society of Marine Artists.
Bright and breezy coast lines with reflective glistening seas are all captured perfectly by this amazing artist. Commissions can also be undertaken of your favourite scene, just contact us for details.
There are also a range of limited edition prints available.
Amazing hand crafted individual ceramic sculptures of British wildlife by Felicity Lloyd Coombes.
All of the ceramics that are made are created using a unique (and secret!) technique that has been developed by Felicity. The method she uses involves first sculpting in wire and then moulding clay around the wire. The clay is then worked and manipulated into the form of the animal before being fired, sometimes a number of times, before the ceramic reaches her exacting standards.
Once the animal ceramic has been completed, she will finish it with either a stain or it can be painted.

I am really inspired by the Newlyn School of Artists who worked in Cornwall in the last century. I try to capture light, texture and atmosphere in my landscapes and coastal scenes, but also concentrating on the small details, for example, giving the effect of damp seaweed on a harbour wall or reflections of clouds on wet sand.
Stunning new original oil painting from Duncan Palmar ARSMA
Roald Dahl’s Matilda was first published in October 1988 with original illustrations by Quentin Blake. A set of four official special limited edition collector prints have been released to celebrate the occasion.
They are mounted to an overall size of 43 x 50 cm and cost £ 149.
Born and raised in Barnsley, South Yorkshire, Lousie was lucky enough to have a childhood filled with many adventures into the countryside and coastal areas where her parents introduced her to the amazing world of nature.
She spent many hours walking through woodlands watching the wildlife or playing in the streams and rivers, or long sunny days at the coast exploring the rock pool and caves. So it’s no surprise that her passion is for nature, and when she wasn’t out exploring the world she was creating drawings and paintings from her discoveries.

As a Communicator/Healer for animals and their human companions I spend time helping people and animals work through loss. It can either be the loss of an animal or the loss of a human. I have written articles on dealing with “Saying Goodbye. " On Monday, August 18, 2008, I had the opportunity to remember some of the words I had spoken to others grieving a loss, I said goodbye to my 17 ½ yr old siamese cat, named Mocha. One more facet of life and death came home to roost.
Mocha and I were given the gift of six months to say goodbye. In February of 2008 Mocha was diagnosed with kidney failure. We both agreed her kidneys were challenged and began holistic assistance to find the balance her body would now have. We talked about many things. We talked about the diagnosis, the ageing process, and her physical bodies deterioration. We agreed that although her test results showed shut down, she could choose how she would live. I placed emphasis on the word LIVE, reminding myself it was her decision. In trying to hear my own advice and live in the present with Mocha, she told me not to be so understanding about it all. That it was a hard time for both of us. We had never minced words with each other and were not about to start now. I followed her lead and we had many precious moments living, how she chose to live, the ending of her cycle of life in this body. I often wanted to talk, to spend as much time sharing as we possibly could. She told me humans, in her opinion, talked to much and reminded me of that often. I reminded Mocha that is how humans primarily communicate with one another. I heard a very poignant “Oh. " This time I said nothing. Her wish was to just be together, to communicate from the heart.
Mocha Rum and I were companions since she was eight weeks old. She would make me laugh when attacking the dog and then a moment later, tell me they were putty in her paw. The memories are all pouring in now, having been stored for these very days. I would begin to learn to live without her body. As much as my mind knew, all that was true about losing her physical body, not her spirit, and her love, I still wanted more time. I had said goodbye to more than her. I said goodbye to another part of my life. I felt like I had been hit by something I couldn't see after she died. As each day passes and each new experience is had, I feel the weight of her leaving. I drink my coffee in the morning, without her on my lap. When I am in bed, she is no longer on my pillow or on my chest. When I feed the rest of my animal family, I no longer make a special meal designed especially for her. When I sit down at night to read, she is no longer laying on me. I also know now, how so silently she was there for me, through the last 17 ½ yrs of my life. Each moment, of the first few days, took reminding my heart to feel the love I have for her, and to honor the hurt that was speaking louder, not to deny it. I want to keep the love we shared alive and honor her memory, by living and loving what she taught me. Sometimes to stay silent gives space to observe. ("I finally figured it out Miss Mocha"). That love is always there even if we can't see it. That being surrounded by our animal companions speaks loudest in the silence.
The love we cultivated while she was in body, with a final breath, was released to the universe, no longer being held tight by me. Her spirit has merged with the whole, in a form I can longer see. Her directness is in my thoughts, and in the silent memories are her love. And when I need it most, her memory reminds me to stop over thinking, just to be.
We each have our own experiences of “goodbye. " From what I have learned, in the work that I do, our animals do not want us to stop living and preserve their time in body with us in a vacuum. There is a natural time of mourning and transition to be honored and lived. That time is different for each of us. Remaining in the flow of our lives, without freezing any part of it, gives life to the form our relationship takes on after their death. Letting it take its own course, guides us to each new experience, and to each new love. When we let the release of their body be a closing to future experiences of love that is a choice. To continue to open to new avenues of love with others, is also a choice. That choice is different for each one of us. Love is a gift to be nurtured, in whatever places it takes us.
Farewell my dear friend. You are forever in my heart.

Just go ahead and register for a new account and you should get monthly emails letting you know what’s in the box until you are ready to pick up a box!
The Description: Each month, Hamptons Lane curates an amazing box of artisan foods, kitchen tools, and serveware for the food lover. Each month is different – spotlighting a different region, food, ingredient, skill, or activity – and you can always skip if you don’t want that month’s box, free of charge.

May Hamptons Lane Review
Everything that comes in the May Hamptons Lane Coastal Italy Box!
$25 Gift Card to Lot 18 – FYI, this works even if you are already a member. It’s an actual gift card! Some states you can’t send wine to, like mine, but there is a selection of housewares available. Fortunately my husband works in Vermont and he’ll be getting some wine to bring back and I’m going to get some post-baby Chardonnay. 🙂 You can use this gift card on shipping. Rock.
Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Antichi Uliveti del Prato (~$17) One of the things I noticed about this box is that everything is imported. I was impressed. This is a single-varietal EVOO and I’m going to make some focaccia with the flour and sop it in this olive oil. Sounds pretty danged good to me.
Nettuno Colatura di Alici ($20.75) Made from an ancient Roman recipe of Italy’s Amalfi Coast, it is extracted from anchovies packed in chestnut wood barrels for at least five months. I will ignore the fact that it is made of little fish and enjoy the wonderful briny taste in something delicious.
Blade Wine Aerating Pourer by Menu ($19.95) I honestly love this space-effective wine aerator that is apparently more effective than decanting. But also I don’t have to have a decanter sitting around just to drink some red!
Antimo Caputo Tipo 00 Flour ($4) The kids & I will enjoy making focaccia with this, and we will make one batch. But honestly I’m going to save the rest for pizza night. Daddy will be around next weekend and his super awesome secret power is that he can throw pizza! He will love this and be very very happy I finally found him real pizza flour [EASY BUTTON].
Pastificio Faella – Spaghetti ($8) I don’t know if I’ve ever had artisan Italian pasta, so I’m pretty excited about it. Will it be Giacomo’s in the North End? Probably not (it’s not fresh) but it will still be great! This spaghetti is made via bronze die extrusion with a long drying time to create an incredible texture and porousness for catching sauce.
I absolutely loved the May Hamptons Lane subscription box and we’ll use everything in it! I came up with over a $90 value for everything in this box, including the gift card. It’s a great discount on wine and if you don’t want to drink it you can always pick up an item like the sommelier wine key & case absolutely free, and use it for a gift! This is an excellent value and provides the perfect base ingredients for all sorts of fantastic coastal Italian fare.
You can sign up and save $10 on your first Hamptons Lane box (FYI the $10 off will be automatically deducted when you are charged midmonth), or if you’re interested just sign up and get on the list!

A rainy day in Washington, probably because God was weeping over the return of Congress (Haha! #jokes. Thanks, Michele Bachmann!). Mitt Romney, America's first cyborg presidential candidate, unveiled his economic plan in front of a row of steel lockers (steel, of course, being the primary material found in his roboskeleton). And Congress is taking it upon itself to save the United States Postal Service, which probably means the USPS will be transformed into some kind of ethanol-fueled, abortion-restricting, capital gains tax cut delivery system. This is HUFFPOST HILL for Tuesday, September 6th, 2011, back after two weeks off. Thanks for waiting! We needed the extra time to commit egregious mail fraud before the post office goes under:
BANK SCOOP - American Banker's Jeff Horwitz: "Many of the country's largest banks received $6 billion in kickbacks from mortgage insurers over the course of a decade, according to a previously undisclosed investigation by the Inspector General of the Department of Housing and Urban Development." [American Banker]
RNC'S RESEARCH DIRECTOR USED TO HATE ON RICK PERRY ALL DAY LONG - Joe Pounder, the Republican National Committee's newest dirt digger, previously served as Kay Bailey Hutchison's spokesman for her primary challenge against Rick Perry. Naturally, there are volumes of on-the-record statements from Pounder that paint Perry in an unflattering manner. A flack for the Democratic-aligned American Bridge Super PAC emerged from his Super LAIR OF OPPO to inundate us with embarrassing Pounder quotes ... like this one: "We guess Rick Perry was for ACORN before his campaign issued last night's statement attacking Kay Bailey Hutchison. Then again, Rick Perry never lets hypocrisy get in his way." Oh shit, ACORN! [Rick Perry, Smiling With ACORN Members]
The Senate (remember them?) is set to vote to end debate on that patent overhaul bill. If the upper chamber can avert a filibuster, a final vote on the bill could come as early as Thursday. The main story is that Harry Reid is allowing amendments to the bill, which basically passed in its (almost) current form back in March. Any changes to the bill would force the bill back to the House for another round of frenzied lobbying. Welcome back, gang! [WSJ]
Everything you ever wanted to know about this patent bill, courtesy of Zach Carter.
A preview of tomorrow's Senate action from Roll Call's John Stanton: "Eager to shift their focus to jobs and the economy, House Republicans on Wednesday will pass an obscure trade bill that is set to become the launching pad for the GOP's larger trade agenda. The bill would reauthorize the General System of Preferences, a set of key -- but little-known -- provisions governing trade with developing nations like Burma through July 2013. According to House and Senate aides on both sides of the aisle, the bill will be used as a vehicle for the Senate to pass the larger Trade Adjustment Assistance act, which would authorize hundreds of millions of dollars in spending on job training and other programs for U.S. workers displaced by free-trade agreements." Wait, why are we displacing workers again? Cuz what this country totally needs is fewer jobs.
MITT ROMNEY UNVEILS ECONOMIC BLUEPRINT, WAVES AROUND A SMARTPHONE - Mitt Romney today stood in front of a row of gym lockers while bragging about his smartphone because
he is a spoiled high school mean girl he was trying to make a point about America's economic prowess in front of a row of patriotically painted lockers. "President Obama's strategy is a pay phone strategy and we're in a smart phone world," the former Massachusetts governor said. Romney unveiled a step-by-step plan for his hypothetical presidency, including a total repeal of health care reform and cuts in the corporate and capital gains tax rates. Shorter Romney: and we're going to California and Texas and New York , and we're going to South Dakota and SMART PHONES ... BLRAAGGHHHH [AP]

DAILY DELANEY DOWNER - A third of American children raised in middle class households fall out of the middle class as adults, according to a study by the Pew Charitable Trusts.

SENATE PANEL TRIES TO SAVE POST OFFICE - The United States Postal Service is an American institution: For centuries it has served as one of the nation's primary conduits for information exchange. Its offices also give our communities' most sweatpants-clad members the chance to spit and yell at a public employee through bullet-proof glass. A national treasure. Too bad it might close. Dave Jamieson: "The postmaster general pleaded with lawmakers on Capitol Hill on Tuesday to pass legislation that would help the postal service right its finances and avoid possible bankruptcy...John Berry, director of the White House's Office of Personnel Management, said the White House plans to release a proposal that aids the postal service as part of a $1.5 trillion deficit-reduction package that President Obama will submit to Congress. Faced with flagging revenues and high workforce costs, the Postal Service is projected to post a $9 billion deficit on the year and could miss a $5.5 billion payment on retiree benefits at the end of this month...As part of those cost reductions, [Postmaster General Patrick] Donahoe said he would like to shed more than 100,000 postal workers who are now covered by no-layoff clauses in union contracts; move new employees from a defined-benefit plan to a lesser defined-contribution plan; and eliminate the service's mandatory annual payment into employee health benefits. The plan would also close around 300 of the postal service's 500 processing centers, shutter thousands of post offices around the country, and eliminate Saturday delivery. Many of those actions would require a mandate from Congress. [HuffPost and AOL Gov]

OBAMA PROPOSES MAJOR IRAQ TROOP REDUCTION - The Obama administration will propose a significant troop reduction in Iraq, decreasing the number of troops in that country to anywhere from 3,000 to 5,000 by the end of 2011. It should be a confusing time, seeing as how the Dow Jones Industrial Average will also be somewhere in the three to five thousand area. Ha ha! [HuffPost's Josh Hersh]
Alan Grayson, bringing that new, old tone: "I said to [Newt Gingrich], 'you look like you've gained a lot of weight.' Newt stared at me. I said, 'I remember you being much slimmer back in the 1990s. When you were relevant.'" [Daily Kos]
TAMMY BALDWIN ENTERS WISCONSIN SENATE RACE - Wisconsin, the land of dairy and openly-gay female progressive Democratic lawmakers (and yet, not one openly gay wheel of gouda), really lived up to its reputation today when Tammy Baldwin announced her Senate candidacy. Baldwin, the only openly gay woman in Congress, is seen as the most viable Democratic candidate for the seat being vacated by Herb Kohl. "I know that, in this campaign, we'll be up against some powerful special interests. But I've beaten the odds before," Baldwin said in her announcement message (which is an object lesson in what NOT to do with your hands when you speak: holding them in front of you for a bit is poised, ALWAYS holding them up in front of you means you're a brain-thirsty zombie). "All my life, the naysayers have told me that I can't win because I'm a progressive ... because I'm a woman ... even because I'm a lesbian. And I've proven them wrong because I've had rock-solid supporters like you standing with me." [HuffPost's Amanda Terkel]
HERE'S YOUR 'TAMMY BALDWIN DOG WHISTLE HOMOPHOBIA' DRINKING GAME - Drink: "Imposing her radical agenda," "San Francisco values" and/or "Nancy Pelosi values," any attack ad featuring 70s/80s cliche gay club music, b-roll featuring Baldwin next to well-groomed men, "single," an uptick in an opponent's references to their wife and kids, a talk radio host's awkward joke about father's day (or fathers in general), "Barney Frank."
Speaking of progressive dream candidates, a WBUR poll has Scott Brown's lead over Elizabeth Warren narrowing to 44 to 35 percent with 18 percent undecided. If that sample is narrowed to people who consider Terry Gross to be a guiding light in their lives, Warren surges to a commanding eleventy gablillion percent lead. Hope!
TRENDING (obvi): PEOPLE NOT CRAZY ABOUT THE PRESIDENT - New polls confirm.
THINGS ARE REALLY GETTING BAD IN EUROPE Zach Carter: "This morning, the Swiss central bank said it would refuse to allow the Euro to devalue against the Swiss Franc, effectively boosting the Swiss economy at the expense of the entire Eurozone. Devaluing the Euro, of course, would lighten the debt load on Eurozone countries and still-struggling European banks. Incidentally, devaluing the dollar would work wonders for U.S. exporters, but hey, why act in the nation's economic interest when we could just promote the profits of bailed-out Wall Street banks? U.S. Treasury Bonds were way up on the news, of course, with yields sinking well below 2 percent. Beware bond vigilantes!
Bank of America just canned their head of wealth management. Ugh. This sucker could go down.
JON HUNTSMAN TAKES AIM AT ROMNEY'S JOB RECORD, JUST ENDS UP DISSING THE RED SOX - Which we're more than OK with! The erstwhile Barack Obama employee unveiled a campaign video today contrasting job growth in Utah during his governorship to Massachusetts' employment numbers while Mitt Romney was in charge. The "#1 vs. #47" theme is potent (Utah being the nation's biggest job creator and Massachusetts the 47th during the Huntsman and Romney eras) but the whole ad looks like it was pieced together with scotch tape. It's an awkward mishmash of stock photos, recycled ad footage (that goddamned motocross dude again) and, perhaps most awkwardly, B-roll of dusty baseball gloves. We guess the abandoned baseball diamond (and the incessant use of the word "record") is supposed to be a metaphor for Massachusetts during Mitt Romney's tenure as governor but, really, it just reminds folks in New Hampshire that the Red Sox aren't in first anymore. Womp womp. [CBS News]
SHOCKER: KOCH BROTHER TALKS ABOUT OBAMA IN PARTICULARLY SLIMY WAY - Mother Jones' Brad Friedman obtained audio of one of the brothers Koch spewing bile about the president this past June in front of a room of wealthy conservative donors. The Koch Brothers, if you aren't already aware, are two hyper-conservative billionaire bros who have bankrolled conservative candidates, organized AstroTurf movements and are the recipients, via a secret network of pneumatic tubes, of every single sock you've ever lost in the wash. "We have, uh, Saddam Hussein, this is the mother of all wars we've got over the next 18 months -- the life or death of this country," Charles Koch said at the private gathering in Vail. The MoJo article also details these millionaire reactionary seminars the brothers keep hosting, which are like yearbook camp, but even more evil. [MoJo]
So the Democrats are still going with the whole "Make it in America" thing.
GIULIANI REFUSES TO ENDORSE FORMER SUPPORTER RICK PERRY - Rudy Giuliani, the emcee of 9/11, spoke about his presidential aspirations (or lack thereof) today during an event at the National Press Club. "I would have a hard time getting nominated," he said, referencing his moderation on some issues that are sacrosanct to Republicans. "I'm a realist and I understand how the primary system works." America's Mayor (ret.) also refused to endorse Rick Perry, who backed Giuliani's 2008 presidential bid. "I like Rick very much. I've told him if he wants to disavow his endorsement of me he can (since) I'm such a liberal, crazy, out-of-control Republican," Giuliani said. "I could see myself doing that, sure, but I don't know yet. I don't know enough about what Rick is going to say tomorrow night, and the next two or three nights at the debate." [HuffPost's Andrea Stone]
Joe Biden sat down for an interview with Car and Driver and offered his two cents on that famous Onion article (y'know, the shirtless, Trans Am one): "You think I'd drive a Trans Am? I have been in my bathing suit in my driveway and not only washed my Goodwood-green 1967 Corvette but also simonized it. At least the Onion should have had me washing a Trans Am convertible. I love convertibles." [Car and Driver]

Have you ever thought of starting your own printing press? If yes, then what is stopping you? Is it money or the incomplete knowledge of the machine in which you need to invest to ensure high production capacity? In case you are a newbie in the industry, let us help by informing you about an Offset Printing Machine. Everyone in the printing industry is aware of this machine owing to the incredible performance it provides. The machine allows the manufacturer to print images and text on the surface of the medium by transferring the ink from a metal plate to a rubber blanket, which is built upon heavy iron rollers.
The ban on plastic bags has inflated the use of non-woven and paper bags in different sectors. You can easily see that non-woven bags have taken the place of plastic ones in the grocery stores, supermarkets, pharmacies, and similar other places. Organizations are even marketing through these bags by printing their brands on them. The need for non-woven bags backed with marketing strategies raised the demand for the offset printing machines. The machines can provide clear and precise prints on non-woven bags of different sizes and designs.
In offset or mini offset printing machine, the matter can be flush with the surface of the plate, and for this, the credit goes to the heavy rollers, which are one of the most important components of the machine that performs most of the printing task. With the mini offset machine, you can transfer the print to the substrate surface hassle-freely. Be it any printing medium like a book, newspaper, or magazine; the offset printing machine will never let you down.
The machine is no less than a boon for the printing industry. The way it can transfer the image flawlessly without any spillage of ink is commendable. The process in which the ink rollers draw the ink into the printed portion of the substrate is called lithography. The rollers also make sure to keep the ink away from the areas which are not meant to be printed. The different rollers, such as water roller, plate roller, offset roller, impression roller, and ink roller, are the main components of the mini offset printing machine.
The machine has excellent features that make it popular in the printing industry. Some of its main features are as follows:
- Dampening system: The dampening system of the machine is backed with state-of-the-art technology and assists in enhancing efficiency and print quality. The system ensures that optimum use of every resource that results in less wastage. It delivers precise water volumes, higher spraying cycle frequency, and uniform dampening of the plate cylinder. It is completely programmable as backed with PLC controls.
- Auto registration system: The advanced auto-registration system equipped with an intelligent camera helps in monitoring and controlling the entire printing machine without much human intervention. In case there is any deviation, the same is immediately corrected. The system comes with an easy to touch screen and user-friendly interface that makes it operation easier to understand by users with less technological knowledge. It helps in saving up to 80% of the operators to make the job easier and production smoother.
- Inking System: The inking system is the advanced technology in which all the ink zones can be pre-set on CIP3/CIP4/TIFF/PDF file. There is no need to adjust ink keys manually as they can be monitored as well as controlled from the desk. With this system, you can make even the very first print tuned and corrected. It provides you with the option to increase or decrease the ink level in a particular area without any problem.
- Pneumatic on/off controls: An easy to use system that comprises every on/off function of the machine. It allows users to switch on all the functions in one go so that the effort and time of the operator to reach out to each printing unit can be decreased. The system helps in preventing printing waste and reduce costs.
If you have a printing press or going to start one, then investing in an offset printing machine can be one of your best decisions.


Farming Activities is Unsafe at Bama in Borno State – Nigerian Army
- January 12, 2018
Meanwhile the Nigerian Army has warned that farmlands in Bama Borno State is unsafe for a farming activities due to landmines planted by Boko Haram insurgents
Receiving the UN Deputy Secretary General, Hajiya Amina Mohammed who visited Bama in company with Gov. Kashim Shettima to assess the rebuilding of the liberated town, the Brigade Commander 21 Armored Brigade, Brigadier General G.B Audu said that Bama is largely safe but still faced with the challenges of farmlands littered with landmines by Boko Haram which has made farming difficult for the local people.
Represented by the Brigade’s Chief of Staff, Col. A.A Adekeye, the army called on the UN DSG to impress on the United Nations to fast track the clearance operations of landmines in farmlands to enable the displaced people quickly return to their farms.
He also informed the delegation of other support it has been carrying out in the area including providing support for the unaccompanied children as well as providing free medical healthcare to the community.

As you can see, even though it’s subtle, I think it’s a big improvement on the old cover for City of Ruin, which I’ve posted below so you can see the difference.
It was made darker once the designer had the final high res artwork, and also Brynd is more integrated into the image. There will be silver foiling on the title. I’m much happier with this – even though I liked the original. The images now enlarge so all you art geeks can really see the detail.

Kerry J. Byrne wrote recently of a truly patriotic American named Julia Ward Howe: “Howe (1819-1910) gave the United States — and the world — some of the most inspirational words ever written. She penned “The Battle Hymn of the Republic” in November 1861, during a wartime tour of Washington, D.C., as Americans realized with gloom that the seven-month-old Civil War would be longer, darker and deadlier than anticipated. Howe’s masterpiece has been called America’s fight song. Its lyrics inspired the United States to spiritual resolve and sacrifice. The words tell the biblically heroic story of Union soldiers marching to their death in the name of Christ to vanquish slavery:
“As he died to make men holy,
Let us die to make men free;
His truth is marching on.”
Byrne continues his insightful article on Fox News as he writes of Howe’s life in the 1800s and her patriotic fervor that was tempered by her Christian faith. Read the rest of the story here.
All of us at Core Technology Solutions wish for you and your loved ones to experience the freedom and independence America was founded to afford all of its citizens. How grateful we are for those who died to “make men free.”

For the first time since Mrs Thatcher walked into 10 Downing Street, the lecturers' union, genuinely believes it can change things.
Some 300 delegates gathered in Eastbourne's Congress Theatre at the weekend for the NATFHE annual conference.
The biggest concerns included what general secretary Paul Mackney called the "cull" of lecturers. They also included the practice of turning full-time lecturers into part-timers; their relationship with the employers represented by the Association of Colleges, with the rival Association of University Teachers; and the treatment of lecturers in individual colleges such as Cricklade College in Hampshire (see story right).
The Government's New Deal was harshly criticised, and there was a debate on how to protect those lecturers who still, on principle, refuse to give up their old "silver book" contracts and have sacrificed their pay rises each year as a result.
NATFHE's new structure, allowing greater autonomy for its further education and higher education sections, meant that for about a third of the weekend conference, FE and HE members debated in separate issues in separate rooms.

§ Mr. Foulkes
asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will call for a report from the Government of the Isle of Man on the situation in which a bank account on the island was set up in order to facilitate the shipment of arms to Iran via South Africa; and what action is being taken by the Manx authorities to deal with the individual concerned and to prevent a recurrence.
§ Mr. Douglas Hogg
There are no statutory provisions either in the United Kingdom or the Isle of Man regulating the use of a bank account in relation to arms shipments. I understand that the Isle of Man authorities have no information to suggest that a bank account in the island has been improperly conducted; and there is no evidence to suggest that there has been a breach of export controls. The Isle of Man authorities are well aware of the need to take whatever steps may be necessary within their domestic jurisdiction to conform with the Government's policy in relation to these matters.

AceShowbiz - Neve Campbell has opened up about surviving a bear attack on a movie set when she was younger. When recalling the terrifying moment, the "Scream" star shared that the bear "grabs [her] by the leg" and "pulls [her] through the forest."
Speaking to Kelly Clarkson in the Thursday, January 13 episode of "The Kelly Clarkson Show", the 48-year-old actress said that she was once attacked by the wild animal when she was only 17 years old. "I was playing this role where she's 'one with the animals' and there was a scene where I was getting chased by a bear," she recalled.
"They brought this bear on set and they first gave me this big bottle of Coke to feed it," Neve added. After feeding the bear, the film production crew had another idea for Neve and the animal. She shared, "They said, 'Dip your hand in honey and just run. And when you get to the tree over there, turn your hand out and feed the bear.' "
"The Lincoln Lawyer" actress did what she was told by the production team as she said, "I dipped my hand in honey and I run to this rock." She then explained, "I turn around and I put my hand out and the bear is not slowing down and he's not coming for my hand."
"He grabs me by the leg and he pulls me through the forest," Neve remembered. "My mother was visiting the set and she's screaming. The whole crew is frozen because nobody can believe what's happening. All I can think to say is, 'He's biting me,' like it's not obvious."
Neve further explained that she was eventually rescued after a bear wrangler began "throwing rocks" at the bear to distract it from her. When Kelly commented on the differences between actors and musicians and the lengths actors are willing to go for a role, she admitted, "It's silly. We get asked to do silly things."
Neve is currently promoting her return as Sidney Prescott in the latest "Scream" movie, which sees her character attempting to solve a series of murders committed by the franchise's killer, Ghostface. The film also stars original cast members Courteney Cox and David Arquette as well as newer faces like Jack Quaid and Jenna Ortega.

NEW BOSTON — Phase 3 of the New Boston Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO) mitigation project is moving forward.
On Wednesday, New Boston Village Council gave second reading to a resolution authorizing the Village of New Boston to apply for, accept and enter into a Water Pollution Control loan agreement for construction of the Combined Sewer Overflow mitigation phase 3 project. And made a dedicated repayment source for the loan.
“We’re getting money from the (U.S.) Corps of Engineers, so we have to set up a dedicated fund for it,” New Boston Mayor Junior Williams said.
“Phase 3 just went out to bid,” Williams said. “We do have the contractor and it was Fields Excavating, Inc. So we had Strand Engineering kind of running that show for us.”
Village Councilman Dan Fetty said Fields is the same company that handled phase 2 of the project.
“The cost of phase 3 is $1,051,258,” Fetty said. “Phase 3 will probably be through DEFA (Division of Environmental and Financial Assistance) and supplemental OWDA (Ohio Water Development Authority).”
Phase 3 is to be bid out in three alternate bids. Phase 3-A will be installing the 72-inch pipe from Rhodes Avenue to Gallia Street. Phase 3-B will take the pipe up to the front of the old Glenwood High School and will catch all the stormwater from Glenwood and will take an increased amount of stormwater out of the combined sewer.
Phase 3-C will consist of televising and cleaning of sewer lines.
Only phase 3 and phase 4 of the project remain to be completed.
“It’s good to go this spring,” Williams said.

Bangladesh High Commissioner to Canada Dr Khalilur Rahman on Friday called on the Canadian government for extending the duty-free quote-free access of Bangladeshi exports, especially RMG products to the Canadian market until 2030.
He made the remarks at a virtual discussion arranged by Bangabandhu Center for Bangladesh Studies in Canada (BCBS) in collaboration with Bangladesh High Commission in Canada on women empowerment, said a press release.
"It would be a huge contribution by Canada to continuing women's economic empowerment as around 85% of RMG workers in the RMG sector in Bangladesh are women," he said in his speech.
He also highlighted the role Bangladesh and Canada have been playing in promoting women's empowerment, peace and security.
The seminar titled "Women, Security and Peacebuilding: A 21st Century Perspective" was attended by State Minister for Foreign Affairs Shahriar Alam MP as a panel speaker.
Panellists of the seminar applauded Bangladesh's role in the adoption of UN resolution 1325, its national implementation along the related SDGs to empower women and engage them in peacekeeping.
They also noted implementing gender quotas can help increase women's representation in peace-building missions.
Other panellists were British Columbia Senator Mobina SB Jaffer, Canada Global Affairs Women, Peace and Security, Ambassador Jacqueline O'Neill, Canadian MP Yasmin Ratansi, former Norway UNTSO Head of Mission Maj Gen (retd) Kristin Lund and MINUSCA Military Gender Advisor Commander Carla Monteiro de Castro Araújo.


Mortgage lending nears record high
MORTGAGE lending fell by 3% in October to an estimated £27bn, according to the latest data from the Council of Mortgage Lenders.
Though this is down from September's £27.7bn, it is still one of the highest monthly lending figures on record, and 16% higher than the £23.2bn figure for last October.
The CML said: 'While we would normally expect lending activity to slow down at this time of year, the modest decline in October lending suggests the market is in good form.
'Figures due to be released by the Bank of England later this month will probably show that lending on a seasonally adjusted basis is close to the peak levels of two years ago.
'The resilience of mortgage lending reflects the progressive recovery in housing transactions over the past year, and continuing high levels of remortgaging as people take advantage of attractive rates and switch to cheaper deals.'
CML director general Michael Coogan added: 'The resilience of lending activity in recent months contrasts sharply with the ongoing uncertainty about household finances and consumer confidence. We believe that gross mortgage advances for 2005 will reach around £280bn - similar to the levels seen in 2003 and 2004.'
The decision to hold interest rates steady in November matched market expectations that rates will remain broadly flat in 2006, said Coogan. And he added: 'In this environment, we believe the housing market will stabilise around current levels.'
