    dont know if everyone has seen this yet so i wont say much about it but i do wonder if they will continue on with the pirate tales? i think if they can get back the entire cast($$$$$) then they have a chance but i wish they would have closed this book forever without loopholes to dive through into 7 more movies..... anyway i liked it alot and cant wait to see it again on DVD when it arrives....

Kilnwick Percy, East Yorkshire

We've been on several trips walking, cycling, and running to the nearby hamlet Kilnwick Percy (silent w, pronounced Kilnick). A main feature of the area is a large hall that is now the Madhyamaka Buddhist meditation centre. The grounds are open to the public. It's a beautiful area of rolling hills, grazing sheep, a lake, walking paths, friendly Buddhist monks, and a café. In the woods nearby there is even a really old wooden trailer room thingy: Near the hall is St. Helen's Church, Kilnwick Percy, a Norman style church that was built in 1865 using some of the original Norman architectural features, so presumably there was a church there for around 800 years before this current one was built.

Two other banks we've used are in this category.Outgoing foreign wires denominated in U.S. dollars typically cost $32 each.Most U.S. banks won't do outgoing international wire transfers denominated in a foreign currency. Only one bank we use will do this.Outgoing foreign wires denominated in a foreign currency cost us $47 each.In the U.S., most banks accept incoming domestic wires and none that we've used charge a fee for that. Thank you!But some banks we've worked with won't allow an incoming foreign wire at all.Banks outside the U.S. seem…

Tallgrass by Sandra Dallas

By -
Tallgrass is the name of a fictional internment camp in Colorado, loosely based on the real Japanese-American internment camp, Amache. The novel is a mildly interesting way to introduce someone to the fact that thousands of Japanese Americans were sent to these places after Pearl Harbor was bombed and the United States entered World War II. It has a compelling story with interesting twists and sympathetic characters, but I felt like something was missing. There should be some great stuff to read about the Japanese American internment camps, but I haven't come across any yet.
