I made the front page of our local paper. Check it out!
So after reading on the NoKa exposé on dallasfood.org, I gleaned this Chocolatier's name from the list. And I ordered two of everything he had. After some back and forth with the owner, (I lamented about his not shipping to Canada, he went out of his way to ship - he will be shipping soon!)
The trinitarios are quite nice. Of the two, I prefer the 80%, but they are pretty close. The nutty flavour coming out is really yummy. I just like the lingering taste of the 80% over the 77%.
Howerver, that Dominican one...? Wow...! The cane sugar seems to be coming out strongly here, which I really enjoy, (love the aroma of cane sugar), and the pairing of cane and chocolate do a really happy tasty dance across my tongue.
I'd love to craft some desserts (especially with the Dominican one!)
Are you looking for the perfect pair of shoes to wear while sailing? If so, you’ve come to the right place! In this article, we will provide a guide on how to choose the best sailing shoes for you. From materials and styles to fit and other factors, we’ll cover all the key points for finding the ideal footwear for your next adventure out on the water. So let's get started!
Introduction
If you're new to sailing, the vast array of shoes on the market can be overwhelming. But don't worry, we're here to help. In this guide, we'll break down the different types of sailing shoes and what to look for when choosing a pair.
There are three main types of sailing shoes: boat shoes, dock shoes, and racing shoes. Boat shoes are designed for deck wear and have non-marking soles to protect your boat's deck from scuffs. Dock shoes are similar to boat shoes but have thinner soles for better traction on slippery surfaces. Racing shoes are designed for speed and have stiffer soles for better grip and support while moving around the boat.
When choosing a pair of sailing shoes, it's important to consider the conditions you'll be sailing in. If you sail in warm weather, you'll want a shoe with good ventilation to keep your feet cool. If you sail in cold weather, you'll want a shoe that's waterproof or has an insulated liner. And if you sail in salt water, you'll want a shoe with good drainage so your feet don't get wet and cold.
Once you've considered the conditions you'll be sailing in, it's time to choose a style. Do you want a classic boat shoe? A modern racing shoe? A slip-on dock shoe? It's up to you! To help narrow down your choices, take a look at our roundup of the best sailing shoes
What to Look For in Sailing Shoes
When choosing the best sailing shoes, there are several things you should consider when joining Sailing Club San Diego. First and foremost, you want to make sure that the shoes you choose are comfortable and fit well. There is nothing worse than being out on the water and having your feet hurt because your shoes are too tight or too loose.
Secondly, you want to make sure that your sailing shoes have good traction. This is important because you don't want to slip and fall while you're out on the water. Even if the weather is calm, the deck of a boat can be slippery when wet. Good traction will help you stay safe while sailing.
Finally, you want to make sure that your sailing shoes are durable. You don't want to have to replace them after just a few uses. Look for shoes that are made from high-quality materials and that are built to last. With proper care, your sailing shoes should last for many seasons of use.
- Types of Soles
Sailing shoes are an important part of your sailing gear, and there are a few different types to choose from depending on your needs. The three main types of sailing shoes are:
1. Deck shoes: These shoes are designed to grip the deck of the boat and provide good traction. They usually have non-marking soles to avoid leaving scuff marks on the deck.
2. Race boots: These sailing shoes are designed for speed and performance, and often have spikes or cleats on the sole for added grip.
3. Cruising boots: These sailing shoes are more comfortable and often have extra padding to support your feet during long days on the boat.
When choosing sailing shoes, it's important to consider what type of sailing you'll be doing most often. For racing, you will need a lighter, more gripping shoe; for cruising, comfort is more important; and for both racing and cruising, a flexible shoe might be beneficial. No matter which type of shoe you choose, ensure that it is well-fitting and provides good foot support. You may also visit the Convair Sailing Club in San Diego to learn more about the types of sailing boats they use.
- Fit & Comfort
When it comes to sailing, comfort is key. You want to be able to move around freely and without pain so that you can focus on enjoying the experience. The right shoes can make all the difference in your comfort level, so it's important to choose wisely.
There are a few things to consider when choosing sailing shoes: fit, comfort, and style. First, you'll want to make sure the shoes fit well. They should be snug but not too tight, and they should provide good support for your feet. Second, consider how comfortable the shoes are. They shouldn't rub or chafe, and they should have plenty of cushioning for long days on the boat. Finally, think about what style of shoe you prefer. Do you want something sporty or more casual? there are lots of options out there to choose from.
The most important thing is to find a pair of sailing shoes that you're comfortable in and that fit well. With a little bit of shopping around, you're sure to find the perfect pair for you.
- Water Resistance
When choosing the best sailing shoes for you, one of the most important factors to consider is water resistance. You don't want your feet to get wet and cold while out on the water, so make sure to choose a pair of shoes that will keep your feet dry. Look for shoes that are made from waterproof materials such as neoprene or rubber. If you're not sure if a particular pair of shoes is water resistant, ask a salesperson or check the product description before making your purchase.
Top Brands for Sailing Shoes
If you enjoy sailing, then you know that having the right shoes is important. The wrong shoes can make your sailing experience uncomfortable and even dangerous. In this guide, we'll show you some of the best sailing shoes on the market so that you can choose the right pair for your needs.
Sperry is one of the most popular brands when it comes to sailing shoes. They offer a wide range of styles and sizes to suit any sailor's needs. Their shoes are also very durable and provide good traction on deck.
Another great option for sailing shoes is Columbia. Their shoes are designed to be comfortable and breathable, with a good grip on slippery surfaces. They offer a variety of styles to choose from, so you're sure to find a pair that suits your taste.
If you're looking for something a little different, then check out Sailors & Soldiers. Their unique style will make you stand out from the crowd. Their shoes are also very comfortable and provide good traction on deck.
Finally, we have Sebago. Their classic boat shoe style is perfect for sailors who want a stylish yet practical option. Their shoes are also very durable and provide good traction on wet surfaces.
Tips on How to Choose the Right Sailing Shoe
Sailing is a fun and relaxing activity that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. While it is not necessary to have any special equipment to go sailing, having the right sailing shoe can make a big difference in your comfort and safety while on the water. Here are a few tips to help you choose the right sailing shoe:
1. Make sure the shoe fits snugly but is not too tight. You want to be able to move your foot around inside the shoe without it being too loose.
2. The shoe should have good grip to prevent slipping on wet decks.
3. Choose a shoe with a comfortable sole that will cushion your feet against the hard deck surface.
4. Make sure the shoes are made from durable materials that can withstand getting wet and salty without falling apart.
Conclusion
It can be difficult to find the right sailing shoes for your needs, but with this guide you should have a better understanding of what to look for. Remember that comfort and protection are key when it comes to finding the best sailing shoes for you. Whether you are looking for casual boat shoes or more technical ones, there is something out there that will meet your needs. Take some time to research different options and ask questions so that you can make an informed decision about which pair of sailing shoes is best for you.

An article in the November 2012 edition of "Barnsley Today" it seems that some clown is after converting part of the Woodhead trackbed into a motorway. If anything is done the line should be reopened even if just as a freight route to get road freight away from the trans-pennine roads then he could have a much better journey in his car, and it would cost much less that the amount he's proposing.

"Village that towers above China" by

www.chinadialogue.net/article/show/single/en/4623-Village...
Comment by Philip McMaster:
People favourably respond to Change
Generally speaking, people don't change for the better when criticized. But they do respond favourably to praise.
Huaxi Cun is not the worst place in China, and it has been following and sometimes leading the objectives and trends of the government and Chinese people - first it was to get rich - and clean up the mess later. We did this in the West on our own schedule, some Chinese are doing it now under the generally hypocritical pressure of the global community.
人们对改变的有利反应
总体上,当人们受到批评的时候,不会变得更好。但他们受到表扬的时候,总是积极反应。华西村不是中国最差 的地方,它跟从着-有时也领导着中国政府与人民的目标与潮流。这个目标首先是变富,然后再处理垃圾。西方按照自己的日程表也这样做过。现在有些中国人也这 么做,就面临虚伪的国际压力。
An aspirational monument - if you choose to see it that way..
When I was invited to Huaxi Cun for the inauguration of the “Village in the Sky”, (www.tudou.com/programs/view/05XpJXkiNwI/ ) I spoke of the new tower as a beacon for all to see, not in terms of opulence and excess, but as a towering 3 element "Symbol of Sustainability" - an aspirational symbol rising above all else - including the cookie-cutter villas, the grubby factories, the money focus and the faux world landmarks - to shock and awe viewers into realizing that all monuments have a message – and this one should inspire people to make the connection between Heaven, Earth and the People (Tian, Di, Ren 天地人) and that to achieve Wu Renbao’s “Heaven on Earth”… the Triple-Bottom-Line balance between Society, Environment and Economy (社会,环境,经济)must become Huaxi’s new ethic.
一个振奋人心的里程碑——如果你从另一个角度解读
我应邀了参加华西村“空中新农村大楼”授牌仪式(www.tudou.com /programs/view/05XpJXkiNwI/ ),当时我谈到这栋大楼并不是炫富和挥霍,而是华西村的一个新地标。比起那些千篇一律的别墅,脏乱差的工厂,一切向钱看的态度和人造世界景观,这栋摩天大 楼是一个振奋人心 里程碑,它作为可持续发展的标志建筑让人感到震撼和心生敬畏,它能让人们感到天地人和谐发展的信息,体现了吴仁宝“人间天堂”的理念。以社会,环境和经济 作为三条支柱,寻求三者的平衡发展是华西村的新理念。

"Now that Huaxi village is rich, what's next?"
Following my presentation, the new building’s architect Ma Xusheng, in turn praised my interpretation of his building’s design, saying that no one had thought of it before, but that “with your new ‘Society, Environment, Economy ‘meaning attached, our building is even richer”.
At a private dinner with village leaders the evening before, I had shamelessly asked: “Now that Huaxi village is rich, what’s next?” – hoping to encourage them to expound on how they were going to share Huaxi’s wealth and expertise with other communities and to build sustainable enterprises based on a model ecological civilisation… however the response was understandable, as a bit more thinking is required; and considering most people’s focus was still on showing off and celebrating what they have achieved so far, the answer was a simple “Gambei!”

“现在华西村富了,接下来呢?”
我的演讲结束后,这栋新大楼的建筑师马旭升(音)反过来称赞了我对他的建筑设计的诠释,说以前从未有人想到这个方面,“加上您说的‘社会、环境、经济’意义后,我们的摩天大楼更加富裕了”。
前一天晚上和华西村领导的聚餐上,我厚着脸皮问了一句:“现在华西村富裕了,接下来呢?”我当时希望他们能够详细阐述下怎样和其他地区分享华西村的 财富和技术,以及在生态文明模型的基础上建立起可持续发展的企业。但是,他们的回答很简单,就是:“干杯!”当然,这是可以理解的,因为回答这个问题需要 一些思考,而且当时大多数人的注意力仍然在炫耀和庆祝他们至今已取得的成就上。

...Huaxi must have liked 3 Fingers - we're invited back_\!/
Our “Peace Plus One -World Sustainability Project” (www.SustainabilitySymbol.com ) and the 3 Finger Sustainability Symbol is about promoting LOHHAS – a Lifestyle Of Health, Happiness And Sustainability, first for the 1/5th of the world in China, then to be exported as a sustainable philosophy for the entire planet. The Leaders of Huaxi must have liked something about our discussions, as they wholeheartedly embraced the3 Finger Sustainability Symbol and invited us back to share more_\!/

...华西村一定喜欢“三指禅” —— 我们又被邀请了_\!/
我们的“和平 + 1 - 世界可持续发展项目” (www.SustainabilitySymbol.com)和“三指禅”可持续发展符号旨在促进“乐活”——一种健康、快乐、可持续的生活方式。起初 是为了中国占世界五分之一的人口而提出,后来作为一个可持续发展的理念被推广到全世界。华西村的领导们肯定是欣赏我们的一些讨论成果,因为他们热烈欢迎了 我们的“三根手指可持续发展符号”并且再次邀请我们去分享更多信息。

Article about the closing of the remaining four Bay Area K Mart stores. They are all now Kohl's stores, opened when Kohl's went all out on remodeling the K Mart stores, essentially making a brand new building out of an old, dated K Mart.
There is only one K Mart left and that is in Scotts Valley, California. I think it does alright there cause there is no Target or Wal Mart near by.

This article appeared on the 26th of November 2011 edition of Straits Times, page D13 in the Heritage is Hip spread. The picture was taken a week earlier in Lor 19, Geylang, just 50m from my old place. Note the construction (or rather demolition) on the left. A block of old Geylang apartments behind my old block was being demolished. Good thing that I was back there in August to snap pictures, else that backlane in which I spent my childhood would have changed physically forever without any photo evidence with this new development. My only regret is not being able to snap a picture from my old home back staircase landing three floors up. That would have been a neat picture to keep!
