Ayat mengenai tembakau dalam Pasal 113 RUU Kesehatan hilang setelah drafnya disahkan Rapat Paripurna DPR. Ini bukan yang pertama terjadi. Kuat desakan untuk membawa pelakunya ke jalur hukum. Entah apa yang ada di benak orang yang menghilangkan pa read more
I LIED
Sailing Nightwatch | October 21st 2009 by Nightwatch
Yea I did. We got our first cold front of the season for real this past weekend. We had great plans, but 30+ knots of wind is not how you introduce the granddaughter to sailing. She has a hard enough time being restricted to a lifejacket. Therefo read more

For those of you who have seen me sailing our dinghy, you could not have missed the look of the sail. It was made using a laminate that was touted as the new Sunbrella. It was much lighter and very strong. The problem is that mold grew in the lami read more
INSURANCE II
Sailing Nightwatch | September 25th 2009 by Nightwatch
Well, I did get my coverage back up by $9k to cover new gear. The drop in hull value goes with the economy…, I guess. At least that is what they say. When one looks at used boat prices, I can see where they are coming from, to a degree. I then w read more
