The grill master. The man who knows what to say and just how to say it. The guy who always has your back. Dad. You can always treat the man of the hour to a golf getaway, but why not take him on the adventure of a lifetime with a thrilling excursion? Check out a few of our favorites below.
Deep sea fishing in Cancun
The biggest personality in your life deserves the biggest catch. And Amstar has you covered to make it happen. The tour begins at spectacular Maroma Beach, and from there you'll head out into the beautiful blue waters of Maroma Bay. We'd say cross your fingers for the "big one," but the seasonal (and plentiful) barracuda, small shark, blue marlin, sailfish, mahi-mahi and tuna that make the bay home always means you're bound to hook something epic.
What's included: Bait, equipment, bottled water, soft drinks, and beer on board. Snacks, bottled water, and soft drinks at the end of the tour.
River tubing in Montego Bay
Maybe dad just wants a little relaxation. You know, to kick back and relax for once. So why not make it as scenic as can be. Lounge with a Chukka Jungle River Tubing Tour by Jamaica Tours Limited. There's no better way to take in Jamaica's stunning natural beauty, and if dad prefers a little thrill, don't worry. There's a (not too crazy) section of rapids that will give him a ride to remember.
What's included: Hotel pick-up and drop-off, safety briefing, jungle river tubing tour and complimentary rum punch.
Snorkeling in Punta Cana
This isn't your average snorkeling tour. Because dad's not your average guy, right? During the Bavaro Splash Double Driver & Rider by IslandSun Experience excursion, Dad will be the captain of your very own speedboat as you cruise along the palm-studded coast soaking in the sun and tropical scenery. At Cabeza de Toro, world-famous for being the scene of international fishing tournaments, you can take the dive and mingle with the enchanting sea life.
What's included: Hotel pick-up and drop-off, speedboat ride for two, professional guides, non-alcoholic beverages, snorkeling equipment and life jackets.
Zip lining in Los Cabos
This one's for all the rad dads out there. Treat him to some high-speed fun with the X-Treme Canyon Canopy Ride where you'll zoom across canyons, zip by beautiful rock faces and fly down the Tarzan Swing—which is pretty much 1,800 feet of straight up adrenaline. And you'll be in good hands. This company is certified by the ACCT (Association of Challenging Course Technology).
What's included: Professional gear and instructions, drinking water, zip-lines, rappel, and multiple zip-line courses.
Sayulita tour in Puerto Vallarta
Maybe pops is known for his undeniably laid-back vibe. He's always cool, and maybe paints in his spare time. Surfing? He's always had a knack for it. So, we think he's going to a love a little day trip to the sunny little beach town of Sayulita. With a Sayulita Escape by IslandSun Experience, you'll cruise to the eclectic, artsy town in exhilarating off-road vehicles. From there, you can check out the surf, boutique shopping and take in the hippy-chic vibe. Hang loose.
What's included: UTV for up to 4 persons, light snack, bottled water, and helmet.

In 2011 the Ukrainian State sold 92.79% of Ukrtelecom to a company called ESU for UAH10.6 billion. ESU was a subsidiary of EPIC, an Austrian company.
In 2011, the UAH – US$ exchange rate was approximately UAH8 = S1, so the sale raised +/- $1.3 billion (for somebody, as this was during President Yanukovych's reign, so who knows where the funds ended up).
In 2013 Raga Establishment Ltd (formerly trading as Epic Telecom Invest Ltd), a Cypriot company owned by Ukrainian banker (and London resident) Denis Gorbunenko, bought Ukrtelecom from ESU.
Raga also occasionally appears in the orbit of Sergei Liovochkin. Perhaps unsurprisingly as Denis Gorbunenko was head of Rodovid Bank (until it went bankrupt in 2010) as this bank then orbited around the Firtash empire – and Sergei Liovochkin is a creature of Mr Firtash.
That same year, Raga Ltd sold Ukrtelecom to Rinat Akhmetov's SCM empire – at $465 million cheaper than the initial 2011 privatisation.
What's going on? A reader may well suspect shenanigans between the then leading backers of Party Regions via a trusted intermediary (Mr Gorbunenko and his Cypriot offshore vehicle). Living rather nicely in London, Denis Gorbunenko did not become a former Ukrainian banker worth in excess of $230 million by losing money – but he probably became one by facilitating perhaps nefarious transactions before the bank he ran went bankrupt.
2014 brought about the ouster of President Yanukovych (and an on-going war with Russia). Many of SCM's assets have fallen behind enemy lines and have subsequently been legally declared beyond the control of SCM. Needless to say, financial forecasting made in 2013 has little relevance to today for SCM. Loans and bonds to Oschadbank and Ukreximbank (to name but two) relating to UkrTelecom have not been repaid when due in March 2017.
These two State owned banks had their loans backed by shares in UkrTelecom.
Whatever the failures of reform and policy change in Ukraine, the cleanliness and transparency of banking sector, though not perfect, has dramatically improved.
Thus claims against SCM and Ukrtelecom were forthcoming, and Ukrtelecom and SCM lost in the Ukrainian courts – twice.
The second hearing occurring almost two months ago, provided for the State (via the State Property Fund) to take control of Ukrtelecom. However The State has not yet taken control, pending a final appeal in the Ukrainian courts the result of which is imminent. Perhaps the more "out of favour" oligarchs would not be treated so graciously.
However, prior to the await exhaustion of Ukrainian due process, Raga Establishment Ltd (or Mr Gorbunenko) has now made a claim against UkrTelecom and SCM for breach of the sale contract, claiming only $100 million has thus far been received – and that $100 million was paid in 2013. Raga, being a Cypriot registered company made a claim through the Cypriot courts, freezing $820 million of SCM (thus Rinat Akhmetov) assets.
A reader may rightly ponder just why Raga (or Mr Gorbunenko) has said nothing of apparently outstanding $ hundreds of millions until now?
The why now is clear – to make the claim before the Ukrainian State can take control of UkrTelecom. The mens rea behind the timing, a reader may suspect has nothing to do with any outstanding funds – if there are any that were ever meant to be repaid regardless of what any contract may say.
A reader may rightly suspect that this Cypriot action has been instigated to either prevent the nationalisation of UkrTelecom or to frustrate and dissuade any potential buyer interest in a future privatisation.
In short a last minute, deliberate legal muddying of the waters – perhaps on behalf of, and to the benefit of Mr Alkhmetov – despite the initial perception of the Cypriot court decision.
Mr Akhmetov's lawyers are currently in Cyprus. No doubt the waters will be yet muddier by the time they have done their work.
A reader will be mindful that Ihor Kolomoisky and the on-going PrivatBank court cases will also not be "resolved" until after the 2019 elections. Perhaps "solutions" may be found should Mr Kolomoisky's media empire be favorable to the current presidential incumbent during campaigning (which has unofficially started).
Thus if a cynical reader is perhaps wondering why the State (via the SPF) had not already assumed control after two court decisions in its favour, (rather than wait for the last appeal to be exhausted in the immediate future), and thus allowed a last minute legal intervention, then it would be wise to recall that Mr Akhmetov also owns some rather influential media – media that would be perceived to benefit President Poroshenko if it were on his side for the 2019 elections. "Solutions" regarding UkrTelecom may therefore be found should legal gymnastics drag on (and on, and on) relating to SCM debts to the State owned banks if President Poroshenko is reelected – depending upon favorable media coverage, or not.

Heads up! We're working hard to be accurate – but these are unusual times, so please always check before heading out.
Pula hotel and accommodation guide
Your critical guide to the best Pula hotel and accommodation choices
Downtown Pula has a handful of mostly rather modest hotels. The classy options are all 5km south of town in Verudela, which is accessible by bus Nos.2A and 3A, or with a 60kn taxi ride. Here the four-star Park Plaza Histria Pula, three-star Palma and a clutch of other resort hotels are run by local tourism concern Arenaturist For a more intimate stay, boutique B&B Valsabbion lies across the bay in Pješčana Uvala.
Hotel Amfiteatar
One of the best things to have happened to the central Pula accommodation scene in quite some time, the Amfiteatar offers smart, thoughtfully designed rooms in an informal pension-style environment. Only metres away from the Colosseum-like structure that it is named after, both the hotel and its highly regarded ground-floor restaurant succeed in delivering high levels of style and quality for a democratic price. Rooms are reasonably spacious and are decked out in slick but soothing shades of grey, green and yellow; bathrooms are modern and in most cases have full-sized tubs as well as showers. Flat-screen TVs and loungey furnishings strike a contemporary note, and wifi or cable internet comes free of charge.
This family-run upmarket B&B contains ten immaculately conceived rooms, half of which have sea-view balconies, all are equipped with fine taste. Of the rooms, six are doubles, with the remaining four providing suites of varying levels of space and refinement. The buffet breakfast is outstanding, although check to make sure the price is included in the rates when you're staying as this changes during the year. There's also a panoramic pool, fitness facilities and various beauty treatments.
Hotel Milan
By the Naval Cemetery before you get to the Stoja headland, the Milan is best known for its quality restaurant. Its dozen three-star rooms are clean and comfortable, and within easy reach of the modest beach at Valkane Bay.
Hotel Riviera
Classic old Habsburg hotel whose grand façade and marble lobby belie the fact that its 65 rooms are in desperate need of renovation. The hotel is run by the Arenaturist hotel group but the building itself is owned by the Croatian Defence Ministry, neither of whom can decide on refurbishments – for the time being, the Riviera remains a charmingly down-at-heel blast from the past. It's a handy base if you're just in by train – the station is close – and want to see the amphitheatre and a few sights around town.
Hotel Omir
Handy cheapie in the centre of town, this is a Socialist-style guesthouse with old furnishings and light fittings, and a wonderfully weird breakfast room decked out with art and an aquarium. Nineteen quiet rooms and a pizzeria downstairs. Round the corner is the ten-room, three-star Galija (Epulanova 3, 052 383 802, www.hotelgalija.hr, €100).
Park Plaza Histria Pula
Thoroughly renovated in 2010-11, the hotel features double rooms with sea-facing views in the main building, and self-catering apartments arranged nearby. Facilities include a circular outdoor pool, a heated indoor one – both with seawater – a sauna, gym and disco. Some 20 tennis courts and other sports pitches are nearby. It also has a casino and conference centre.

You know, 2015 was bloody wonderful, but it took me by surprise in a lot of ways. Much of what I planned and envisioned, never eventuated. Plenty of goals weren't reached.

The Gratitude Files: A Photo Edition (in the name of self expression!)

Creativity comes in many forms. In all forms, really! Just take a moment right now to look around you at what has been created for your benefit, ease and pleasure.
And whilst words are wonderful, lately I've been encouraging myself to experiment with the infinite possibilities of self expression available to me.

2014! You've Been Rad: A Review, Gratitude, Lessons & Pics
By Claire in CREATIVITY, EXPLORE, FUN STUFF, LIFE LESSONS, THE GRATITUDE FILES 30 Comments Tags: 2014, gratitude, review
Well, here we are! Just days away from the end of 2014. I'll tell you what, this year has been a transformative and delightful 12 months! My life – and many a mindset – has changed both subtly and dramatically.
And put simply, I'm seriously appreciative that 2014 brought with it so much joy, because if I'm honest, 2013 was the most difficult and challenging year of my life. This year felt SO different. Not without loss and confusion and sadness, but perhaps with a little more laughter and (the big one) acceptance.

Return to: Programs by Department
Department Office: Health and Human Services Building, room 439
Web site: http://www.indstate.edu/health/department/social-work
Facebook: Indiana State University – Department of Social Work
The Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) Program at Indiana State University is committed to contributing to the profession of social work through teaching, research, and community service. The focus of the BSW Program is on the promotion of social and economic justice and on the development of competent and skilled social work professionals. Students are educated to recognize social work as a discipline with a broad mandate and to accept that they have a dual responsibility to work with designated clients as well as to work toward a society that reflects economic and social justice.
The BSW curriculum includes courses in the liberal arts (Foundational Studies) and in the social work profession, and integrates theory and practice through a variety of classroom experiences and agency settings. The professional foundation includes course work on social work values and ethics, diversity, social and economic justice, human behavior and the social environment, social welfare policy and services, social work practice, research, and the field practicum. Field placement experiences help students develop observational, communication, and assessment skills while providing opportunities to work with individuals, small groups, families, organizations, and communities. The BSW Program is accredited by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE).
Students graduating with the BSW degree are prepared to pursue a master's degree in social work, as well as to enter the workforce as a generalist practitioner. Entry-level social work positions provide services relating to case management, children and youth, aging, mental health, family services, corrections and criminal justice, physical and mental disabilities, alcohol and substance abuse, medical health care, community and neighborhood services, occupational social work, schools, and income maintenance.
Students interested in social work will declare the Pre-Social Work major upon admission to the University. By doing so, students benefit from course planning to assure the opportunity to qualify for the four-year graduation guarantee.
To apply to the social work major, students are required to meet the following criteria:
1) a 2.5 cumulative grade point average (GPA)
2) a minimum of C in all courses in the social work major
3) successful completion or currently enrolled in SOWK 130, SOWK 240, and SOWK 241
4) submit the application to the major in the spring semester prior to enrollment in fall semester junior level curriculum
(SOWK 382 and SOWK 384)
Students must maintain the following requirements:
1) a 2.5 cumulative GPA,
2) a 2.5 GPA in the social work major, and
3) a minimum of C in all courses in the social work major
An application to the BSW major must be completed by February 1, of the sophomore year for full consideration. Applications from transfer students are encouraged as quickly as possible upon admission into the university.
To complete the BSW degree, students are required to successfully complete the University requirement of a minimum of 120 credits, including Foundational Studies course work.
Advising is a central component of the social work major. All social work majors must meet with an advisor to develop an academic plan upon entry into the major and also prior to registering for any semester of classes. Each student must notify her/his advisor of all scheduling changes made by the student. Each student who drops a class, fails a class, or earns below a C in any course in the social work major must contact her/his advisor to adjust the academic plan. It is the responsibility of each student to keep regular contact with her/his advisor to ensure the proper sequencing of courses.
Social Work majors interact with practicing professionals and engage in service-learning and field experiences throughout their program. During an undergraduate career, majors complete a total of 450 field experience hours during three semesters of field education. The experience includes generalist social work practice with a local social welfare agency as well as a weekly field seminar.
BSW students may participate in a number of co-curricular activities. Students have the opportunity to participate in the BSW Student Social Work Association, the Black Social Work Association, the Phi Alpha Honor Society for social work students, study abroad, University Honors Program, Nonprofit Leadership Alliance, local and state professional conferences, and experiential education.

IRAN: Iranian pistachios Prospects for boosting production for the coming new season
Good news for Iranian pistachio is that in the spring of this year 2019, Iran has had incredible growth in rainfall, just one week rain was equal to last 3 years rain. Thanks to the efforts of Iranian traders, pistachios have gained the biggest share in the global market. The quality of pistachios cultivated in Kerman, Sirjan and Rafsanjan in Kerman Province are the best in Iran and the world. (Quoted from Iran-Pistachio.com 12- 05 -2019)
IRAN: More than 160,000 hectares of orchards are under almond cultivation
Annually Iran produces about 99,551 metric tons of almonds. Majority of the cultivation is done in Tabriz region and the North West region of Iran. The sweet and bittersweet categories of almonds are available. Majority of the almonds are exported to India. Almond production in Iran per capita stands at 2 kilograms per year, whereas the global figure is in the neighborhood of 400 grams. In Iran, more than 160,000 hectares of orchards are under almond cultivation. (Quoted from worldblaze.in 12 May 2019)
IRAN: Exports its raisin to over 100 countries around the world
Iran is one of the major exporters of raisins in the world. Iran's raisin export accounts for 27% of the world's raisin exports, earning the country over $250 million each year. The country exports its raisins to over 100 countries around the world including Australia, UK, US, Italy, and France among other countries. The country produces an average of 122,595 metric tons of raisin every year according to the 2014-2015 harvest. Some of the common raisin variety grown in Iran include golden, sultan, green and black raisin
The other main producers of raisins include Greece, Chile, South Africa, Uzbekistan, and Afghanistan. These countries each produce more than 30,000 metric tons of raisins annually. The majority of raisin produced in these countries is mainly for export. Sultana seedless grapes are the primary varieties of raisins produced by these countries.
Iran's Trade Promotion Organization (TPO) has announced that supportive and supervisory role of the government in securing low-cost financing for exporters to purchase products from producers will improve quality of production and exports. According to Export & Import Regulations Office of Iran's TPO, comparative statistics of rasin exports in last year and the earlier one indicate a sever-percent increase in the value of raisin exports. Exports of raisins can be expanded by controlling logistic cost, exploiting up-to-date packaging and processing technologies, lowering production costs and equipping raisin factories. (Quoted from Worldatlas.com 5 May 2019)
GERMANY: There are certainly opportunities in the German trade for Iranian dates and pistachios
Iran is the main origin of dates in the world. Iran has quite different, exclusive varieties. The Berlin Andreas Langbehn has made it his mission to make the Iranian dried fruit known and popular in Germany.
After two student semesters abroad in Tehran and further trips to Iran, the idea of bringing Persian nuts and dried fruits to Germany grew. In 2017, the company was founded, says Langbehn. "In the beginning, I just jumped in cold. In other words, I just visited producers and potential suppliers, mostly in southern Iran. From last autumn onwards, I was finally able to take care of the company structure - ie marketing, packaging design and the search for potential customers." The next task is now to build a solid customer base in the German market and as possible to gain a foothold in the organic retail trade. The first orders have already been successfully delivered, explains the Berliner. "For the time being, we focused on the existing market for the packaging units, which vary from 200 g bags to 5 kg and 10 kg boxes, depending on the variety. Although we have a house brand in our program, the larger chains tend to prefer their own brands. The goods are locally packed in Iran. Our original goal was to go directly to organic markets and wholesalers and order and deliver directly from Iran without intermediate storage." However, the ambitious importer has now also decided to buy midsize wholesalers - i.a. on the Berlin and Hamburg wholesale market - which he could supply from a cold store with smaller quantities. "We would like to deliver large boxes, where customers can then serve themselves in the supermarket, for example, in order to avoid unnecessary plastic bags or packaging material," adds Langbehn. The Mazafati has already acquired a certain importance in German trade in recent years. The two other varieties from Iran - Piarom and Kabkab - are still a marginal phenomenon, says Langbehn. "Our goal is to make these varieties more well-known. Therefore, we offer our entire assortment first in both organic and conventional quality. Regarding pistachios; we already only sell organic products." The date assortment the new import company consists of three varieties: The Piarom has its own flavor and a texture like wine gums. The Kabkab grows exclusively in southwestern Iran and is a juicy, soft date variety. The best-known variety, Mazafati, is harvested fresh and has a slightly nutty taste. Overall, the pioneer sees promising potential for import. "Of course, the Mazafati date has a certain value in the trade. More interesting is how the Piarom develops on the market: This relatively high-priced product has a firm consistency like no other date and that alone is a unique selling point.

IRAN: Saffron Options Contracts Launched on Iran Mercantile Exchange
As part of plans to diversify and expand financing methods for agricultural products on the Iran Mercantile Exchange, the bourse on Sunday launched the options contracts for saffron. Options trading will only be for 'Negin Saffron' which is regarded as the highest-quality of Iranian saffron and comes after IME launched saffron futures contracts and certificates of deposits for saffron earlier during the calendar year (ends March 20). At a press conference on the occasion of launching the contracts for the first time, Hamed Soltaninejad, IME's managing director added since the launch of the mercantile exchange in 2007, efforts have been made to enhance trade in agricultural products.

Rita must still be mad a poor Rowdy over the credit card misunderstanding. They went to bed about a half hour ago and I've had to go upstairs three times so far. Rita keeps holloring at him to be good or Dad will come up and he'll be in trouble. But every time I go up there I don't see any trouble, just a sweet black Labby face looking so pitiful because his Mommy is lying about him. ;D
Everytime I go up there I get a look something like this:
Does that look like a lab who would be naughty to his mommy? ;D Yet she lies about him when they go to bed before I do all the time. :
Rowdy tell mommy to be nice! How could a sweet pooch like you do anything naughty !! At our house its Daddy that lies about the goings when Sammi is trying to sleep! Heck, she just lay's down and goes to sleep quietly! :
I jsut went up again, swatted Rita with the fly swatter, Rowdy wagged his tail and all is quiet, for now. ;D
O.K that just caused a snort and a belly laugh! ;D- from me not Sammi!
How dare mama tell such filthy lies to daddy about you Rowdy! Shame on her.. Perhaps you ought to tell when SHE is doing something naughty! Like defecating or peeing in the house by accident! Im sure she would blame YOU for that too though ;D
There is no way, ABSOLUTELY NO WAY, I tell ya that face could be doing anything wrong. Mama is making it all up!
My pretty girl, Lexi!
What a mug ;D What could Rowdy possibly be doing to cause such lies ?
YOU ARE IN BIG TROUBLE! You better hope that Rita does not read this thread. What is the popular phrase now. 'Dead Man Walking!'Originally Posted by delmonico
Hershey Kisses, In charge of getting Ed out to the dog park so that he gets some exercise.
I'm safe there, she'd rather watch old reruns than do forum boards. I didn't swat her that hard, wanted to see what Rowdy would do. ;D When I went to bed and she swatted me, he grabbed it and wouldn't let her swat me again. ;D

AUGUSTA, Ga. — Hogan's Bridge and Rae's Creek, make room for Tiger's Trap.
Tiger Woods is playing fabulously in this 83rd Masters, but if he comes up a stroke or two short Sunday, he can put much of the blame on a single culprit.
In each of the first three rounds, Woods deposited his tee shot at the newly lengthened par-4 5th into the first of two fairway bunkers that guard the left side of the hole. On all three occasions, Woods had no chance to advance his ball to the green, instead pitching out to the fairway. On all three occasions, he failed to get up and down and had to settle for a bogey 5.
Woods isn't the only player struggling with the hole. Through three rounds, the 5th has ranked as the toughest hole at the 2019 Masters with a 4.343 scoring average. It has yielded just 10 birdies against 87 bogeys or worse.
Earlier in the week Woods was asked about the changes to the hole, which now stretches to a meaty 495 yards. "It's just long," he said. "The bunkers, they are still deep. You know, I think they are unplayable to get the ball to the green. You have to be very lucky and get a situation that you might be able to get to the front edge of the green, but you need to stay out of those bunkers."
Woods has learned that lesson the hard way. To fly the bunkers, players must carry their tee shots more than 310 yards. Woods has failed in each of his attempts. In the first round, his drive came up short of the first bunker, bounding into the left side. In round two, he had a similar result, and in the third round he tried to bleed a fade off the right side of the bunker, but failed, as the right side of the trap gobbled up his ball.
"It will be interesting to see how they set it up," Woods said of the hole, "but I'm sure that they will do an incredible job like they always do and present us with an incredibly tough test, but one that is extremely fair."
Beyond the 5th hole, Woods has had little difficulty navigating Augusta National this week. He has made just two other bogeys (at the 17th in the first round and at the 8th in the second round) against 16 birdies.
After a third-round 67, Woods is at 11-under for the tournament, just two behind leader Francesco Molinari.

MYOB turns Japanese
In all the old versions of MYOB, it was impossible to enter Japanese characters, which probably didn't bother most users in Australia but was a little frustrating for us in Japan. On the other hand, old versions of MYOB have tended to work better for us than in Australia as most new features were tax and payroll related which are of limited use in Japan. Well, MYOB has now been rewritten on a different code base to allow for future cloud migration which has brought with it some new features which will help Japanese users, not least that MYOB now accepts Japanese characters!Read More »

Stalked:Robert Downey Jr,S.Darko
Robert Downey Jr is in talks for Cowboys and Aliens.
The Donnie Darko sequel S.Darko has another cast member.
Robert Downey Jr is a busy man indeed these days. Project number three he's in discussions for is Cowboys and Aliens. That's in addition to Hugh Hefner wanting Downey Jr to play him in a bio-pic of his life, and also the rumoured talks on him playing Sherlock Holmes.
Cowboys and Aliens is based on a graphic novel and, although I've never read it, it would appear to combine the western genre with a bit of science fiction. With two groups of people who are usually enemies, having to work together against the alien invaders. Sounds potentially interesting, the news comes from Rope of Silicon.
The sequel I like to pretend isn't happening has a new cast member. Bloody Disgusting say that Matthew Davis has joined the cast of Donnie Darko sequel S.Darko. That would be the one that follows his little sister on a road trip with her friend, where they are plagued by strange visions. Daviegh Chase, Ed Westwick, Briana Evigan, Justin Chatwin, Elizabeth Berkley and Briana Evigan are already involved in it. I'm still waiting for someone to tell me it's not happening...

I can't say much as I'm going to be leaving here shortly. But...
Aiden has disappeared. He's up and vanished. Taben was getting ready to go and asked where Aiden was. His coat, wallet and all the stuff he'd take anywhere are still here. He just... vanished.
I knew we shouldn't have invited that Slender bastard in.
Gonna be spending the day looking for him. Getting a couple friends to help me. I can't ask Taben to take the time off. He wants too but he can't miss school or the government will eat him up.
Off to searching. This just sucks. Aiden if you read this PLEASE call me or Taben or someone. Gods I hope you're alright. I love you. I'm so sorry.

I don't...I don't know what to do. I don't think I can do anything to help all the way over here...
He's alright. I just got back myself... apparently Taben was trying to call me all day, I never got anything. Aiden was at the school. And... yeah. I don't even know. He;s kinda gone into hiding. He seems really nervous so we're holding off from questioning him. This is just... really unsettling.ReplyDelete

When I'm measuring the warp for my baby wraps, I have to make 4 'bouts' or groups of threads. Each bout is roughly 190 threads wide. Not only is that the capacity of my warping mill, but wider bouts tend to cause beaming problems.
I take those bouts over to the loom, insert the lease sticks (here they're 2 small PVC pipes – so smooth that no threads EVER catch on them), thread them on to a rod and tie the rod to the back beam. Here's how the warp for JS & YY looked at that point.
The next step is spreading the warp to the correct width, using a tool called a raddle. (That's the board with the nails in it, which I've clamped to the loom with Irwin Quick Clamps). I've done that here.
From left to right, the warp colors are turquoise, pale green, pale yellow, peach, pale pink, and dark pink. Looks like a selection of sorbets to me. Yum!
After that I use my warping valet to beam the warp – that is, wind it on the back beam under tension. Got that done today, too. I'll start threading tomorrow.

San Antonian joins Texas' genocide commission
When it comes to establishing a commission devoted to raising awareness and educating students about the Holocaust, Texas is not only a relative newcomer — it's an anomaly.
Most such entities are decades older, operating primarily on the East Coast, where Jewish populations are far larger than the Lone Star State's.
The Texas Holocaust and Genocide Commission only dates to 2009, but it was forged by "a robust Jewish community in Houston, Dallas and, to a lesser extent, San Antonio," executive director Matt Verdugo said.
And they went farther than in other states by adding genocides beyond the Holocaust to its work.
On advocates' minds were the diminishing numbers of survivors, the living witnesses to the atrocities in Nazi death camps during World War II, couple with the ongoing religious wars and "ethnic cleansing" in places such as Darfur, the Balkans, Rwanda and Iraq. The list has only grown since then.
In October, the commission got a major San Antonio presence, the writer and public relations executive Jonathan Gurwitz, who will serve a three-year term.
Related: San Antonio pastor is walking with the caravan
The 54-year former newspaperman became the third San Antonian on the 15-member body, after businesswoman Laura Ehrenberg-Chesler and Sichan Siv, notable for having escaped Cambodia's killing fields in 1976 and serving as U.S. ambassador to the United Nations under President George W. Bush.
Gurwitz, vice president of KGBTexas Communications, says his advocacy was influenced by two beloved mentors — the late Oscar Ehrenberg, a Holocaust survivor and father of a fellow commissioner; and writer Jan Karski, a Polish resistance fighter in World War II with whom Gurwitz studied at Georgetown University.
Both left a lasting imprint on Gurwitz, who made writing about Darfur, a region of Sudan that erupted in civil war in 2003, a focus of his writing at the Express-News.
A former board member of Temple Beth-El and former board chair of the Jewish Federation of San Antonio, Gurwitz said his work for the state commission will be to make more Texas teachers aware of its educational resources. Some don't know about the commission and how it can assist them in the classroom.
Gurwitz said he's also looking forward to the commission's work of redesigning its website to improve functionality; developing a plan for social media to reach educators on Twitter and Facebook; and touring the state to meet with newspaper editorial boards.
He has worked on both sides of that table as a columnist and member of the Express-News editorial board and in advocating for clients before such panels.
The commission went into overdrive this fall, when it fought proposed changes to the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills, or TEKS, that would have deleted mention of the Holocaust. It ultimately was reinstated as a component of what is taught about WWII under world history curriculum for Texas high schools.
Related: This holiday season, text 'compassion' to 55000
Such cases aren't mere curriculum battles but part of a larger societal need, especially as the youngest remaining Holocaust survivors die off, Verdugo said.
"The fear is that once they pass away, as in many other events in history, we'll forget the Holocaust happened in a modern, industrialized western country, where we like to think that society has progressed beyond stuff like this," the commission's executive said.
Gurwitz agreed.
"Unless you understand what happened and why it happened, the likelihood that it happens again increases," he said. "It has practical application to the daily lives of students, like cyber-bullying."
Dehumanizing targeted people is an essential component of genocide, he said, as has happened to Muslims in Bosnia and Christians in Syria.
"Sometimes the source of hatred is religion, or ethnicity, or sexual orientation, but it begins with marginalizing and dehumanizing people. It's no different from the victims in a church in South Carolina or a synagogue in Pittsburgh," Gurwitz said.
Gurwitz will attend his second commission meeting in January.
The commission's work includes funding studies and developing programs and exhibits, among them, "The Texas Liberator: Witness to the Holocaust" exhibit that will be in Fredericksburg next and will at some point show in San Antonio, Verdugo said.
The commission has a Hispanic outreach coordinator to bring knowledge of the Holocaust to the growing majority of Texas' student population. It also awards grants to nonprofits doing genocide awareness work, conducts student contests and recognizes educators doing superior work in the field.
Verdugo said the commission will seek additional funding in the next legislative session to hire a staffer to develop course materials on other genocides. It is also negotiating with the University of Texas to conduct research on an elusive topic — the alleged work by a young Texas congressman and future president, Lyndon Johnson, in rescuing Jews during World War II.
Another of its research projects, at Texas A&M University medical school, will investigate "generational suffering" of Holocaust survivors and their descendants, and whether physiological trauma is handed down.

Rose Bosch's The Round Up (2010) is one of the most notable recent success
stories in French cinema, a moving and thought-provoking account of the Vel d'Iver round up in 1942. The round up was a mass arrest corroborated by the Nazi-occupied French government of 13,000 Parisian Jews, forcibly removed from their homes in Montmarte and ordered to the Vel d'Iver Velodrome, in preparation for their deportment and execution. Building on two years of research and interviews with survivors, the film shines a neglected light on an atrocity the French public would, understandably, very much like to forget. Continue reading

Is the new Matt Damon vehicle The Adjustment Bureau as farcical as its title? Mike Richardson reports…
It's a lazy reviewer who likens a film to two other films, and it's an even lazier advertiser who does the same. With The Adjustment Bureau (aka "Bourne meets Inception") the sin of laziness is further compounded by being downright misleading. The only aspects of the aforementioned films that have a relevance to the Adjustment Bureau are that a) Matt (Jason Bourne) Damon himself is the lead protagonist and b) the raised paving stone seen in the trailer, looks like a mini version of the Parisian walkway folding of Inception, and that's it.

ESAA denies high-emitting power stations are profiting from carbon tax
The Energy Supply Association of Australia (ESAA) has hit back at claims Australia's brown coal power stations will profit from the federal government's carbon tax legislation.
"The combination punch of a carbon price, soft wholesale electricity prices, weak demand forecasts and deepening market uncertainty are clearly hurting the bottom line of Australia's coal fired power stations," said ESAA chief executive officer Matthew Warren in a statement released yesterday (September 6).
The comments came in response to a report released last week by Frontier Economics which argued that the highest-emitting brown coal electricity generators in Australia were actually hundreds of millions of dollars better off under the carbon tax.
However the ESAA - an association of leading energy supply businesses based in Australia and New Zealand - has firmly denied this and labelled the report "back-of-the-envelope arithmetic".
"For Frontier's Danny Price to say on ABC Radio this morning that generators are 'jumping for joy' is just astounding," said Mr Warren.
Mr Warren asserted that coal generators in Australia were facing challenges, and argued that the carbon price was hurting the industry rather than assisting it as was claimed in the Frontier Economics report.

The Murder of King Tut By James Patterson (Nonfiction Thriller)
1st Edition September 2009 Little, Brown and Company
332 pages
Since 1922, when Howard Carter discovered Tut's 3,000-year-old tomb, most Egyptologists have presumed that the young king died of disease, or perhaps an accident, such as a chariot fall. But what if his fate was actually much more sinister? Now, in THE MURDER OF TUT, James Patterson and Martin Dugard chronicle their epic quest to find out what happened to the boy-king. They comb through the evidence--X-rays, Carter's files, forensic clues--and scavenge for overlooked data to piece together the details of his life and death. The result is a true crime tale of intrigue, betrayal, and usurpation that presents a compelling case that King Tut's death was anything but natural.

Where are the Jacobins?
This is just one of four hummingbird feeders on our veranda in Gallon Jug. Note how this quart jar is empty. There are days when we can barely keep them all topped up, the feeders are in such demand. Several months out of the year, we are treated to the aerial acrobatics of up to 5 species of hummingbirds. The last few months, we've just had two species, the Green-breasted Mango (Anthracothorax prevostii) and the Rufous-tailed (Amazilia tzacatl).
What's missing is the dominant species, the White-necked Jacobin (Florisuga mellivora, pictured above). This is a really attractive large hummer: the males have a sapphire-colored head, white underparts and emerald-green back and wings. Often we have as many as 11 males defending access to his chosen feeder. It's always entertaining as they swoop, dart and chatter, sometimes driving each other into the windows. Luckily, they always seem to recover. The females visit occasionally too, but the feeders really seem to be male dominated.
The literature doesn't say anything about jacobins being migratory. For years we've observed that they enjoy our feeders well into the summer months, entertaining us daily. At that rate, they are going through more than a quart of nectar a day. Then they suddenly disappear, returning before Christmas. Since we're not sure where they "migrate" to, we're not sure what sort of weather or other obstacles they have to overcome in order to return. Hope to see them any day now.

Alleged rebel bomber, 4 others arrested in Isabela
CAMP MELCHOR DELA CRUZ, ISABELA – A suspected New People's Army bombing expert and four other alleged rebels were arrested on Monday (Feb. 19) by the police and the military in Ilagan City.
Mauricio Sagun allegedly heads the NPA Training, Demolition and Explosives Team and is supposedly an expert in manufacturing and handling improvised explosive devices and landmines, said Army Capt. Jefferson Somera, 5th Infantry Division spokesman.
Somera said Sagun was arrested at his house in Barangay San Antonio Centro along with Mario Turqueza, 65; Maximiano Domingo, 41; Ariel Peñaflor, 48; and Bernard Peñaflor, 21, all of San Mariano town in Isabela province.
The Army claims the four other men were recruits of the NPA Sparrow Unit, an urban attack group formed and deployed during Martial Law.
Seized from Sagun's house were three hand grenades, a caliber 9-mm Pietro Beretta, a Cal. 38 pistol, two blasting caps, and a roll of detonating cords.
The arrested suspects were brought to the police for questioning before they were held at the military camp here.

Yes, you are correct. Here's the story...
I was in the girls' room getting PJs when I heard a loud shreek coming from the bathroom (where Amelle and Amaya finishing up their bath together - the water was draining out). I ran into the bathroom and found Amelle standing, dripping outside of the tub and Amaya standing in the tub looking confused, and then I spotted the cause of the excitement.
What happened next is every mother's nightmare - the process of removing the soggy turd from the tub and into putting it in it's rightful place (the toilet) and then a thorough disinfecting of the tub and surrounding area, followed by another bath for both girls, in case poop germs got on them before they were able to escape the contaminated water.
Oh the joys of motherhood!
Actually, I think I may've done something similar to my brother many, many years ago...

Hone Harawira reminds Bill English to know his place
"The Prime Minister should always attend Treaty commemorations at Waitangi, and just like in 1840, that means accepting the good with the bad" said MANA Leader Hone Harawira.
"The Treaty of Waitangi is called that for the simple reason that it was signed at Waitangi, on the 6th of February 1840"
"The Treaty is known as the ?cornerstone of our constitution? and Waitangi is called the ?birthplace of the nation? for very good reason. Waitangi is where the chiefs gathered to discuss the Treaty, to hear the arguments of others and eventually to sign the document we now know as the Treaty of Waitangi, on 6 Feb 1840" Read more »

Yes, nature was fun. Now on to the important things.
- The Blood of Olympus is not in my hands! It is coming in a few days. :( I feel very left out.
- NaNoPrepMo is this month. While camping, I made the decision that I will be writing a completely new novel during November. It is currently called The Blog Project, which is the temporary name instead of the standby Untitled. Here is a short summary: Cait is attending WeBlogCon, and is prepared for a normal convention. Her idea of normal consists of meeting her online friends, attending a few talks, and talking a bit herself, all while exploring NYC with her friends. But Cait isn't prepared for Dean, whom she thought was boyfriend-potential. He is so different from his online self. And then there's the offer from the TV company and WeBlog. Can Cait handle the stress? And will she agree to what WeBlog has to offer? Or will she retreat to her home in California?
- I'm doing really well on the 100-4-100!
- Look for a new page called My Writing. It will have The Blog Project and a link to Nakoma, if I can get it on a googledoc. I finished Chapter 24, too!
I can't wait to start on NaNoWriMo, but I know I have to focus on Nakoma for now. [Isn't The Blog Project cover beautiful?]
Off to do…stuff. I'll post my review of Mockingjay tomorrow. I'm currently reading Clockwork Angel.

A woman in the Republic of Ireland who was charged with assisting in the suicide of her friend has been found not guilty.
Gail O'Rorke was accused of helping 51-year-old Bernadette Forde to die, in a case considered to be the first of its kind in the country.
Last week, O'Rorke was acquitted on two charges of assisting suicide and on Tuesday a jury delivered a not-guilty verdict on a third and final charge.
She was charged with three offences relating to 'aiding, abetting, counselling or procuring' the suicide of Forde, who had Multiple Sclerosis, between March and June 2011.
The court heard that O'Rorke, 43, had helped to obtain a lethal dose of medication for Forde by making a money transfer to Mexico.
She was also accused of attempting to arrange travel to the Dignitas clinic in Zurich and making funeral arrangements two days before Forde's death.
No right to suicide
Forde was a member of pro-euthanasia organisation Exit International. According to reports, she had discussed her death with the group's controversial leader Philip Nitschke.
In 2013, the Supreme Court in Ireland ruled that the country's constitution does not uphold a right to suicide, or a right to help someone else commit suicide.
The ruling came as former university lecturer Marie Fleming, who also had MS, tried through the Irish courts to gain the right to have an assisted suicide.
Lord Falconer
Moves to legalise assisted suicide in England and Wales have been heavily criticised by parliamentarians, medical professionals and faith leaders.
Lord Falconer's Bill, which was debated in the last Parliament, would have allowed patients to obtain lethal drugs if they were thought to have six months or less to live.
But in July last year, a disabled Peer in the House of Lords described the proposals as a "runaway train", and said her experience of "progressive deterioration" shows there is "no situation that cannot be improved".
Lord Falconer's Bill did not complete its parliamentary stages before the General Election.

The Lance Armstrong Doping Interview: Armstrong Comes Clean?
It was whispered about for years, and then investigated in earnest by the world's leading anti-doping agencies, and now the truth is finally coming out: Lance Armstrong enjoyed a storied and impressive cycling career thanks to the use of performance enhancing drugs. It's a sad testimony to our times and the burden placed on athletes that Armstrong so adamantly denied the doping allegations for so many years, even as the evidence mounted and friends and former teammates turned on him. Now, thanks to an interview with Oprah Winfrey, the real story is coming out, direct from the athlete's mouth.
In light of the massive and thorough report on Armstrong's doping released by the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) in October, and the unrelenting media scrutiny of the unfolding drama, not to mention the stripping of Armstrong's seven Tour de France titles and his lifetime ban from the sport of cycling, it was only a matter of time before Lance Armstrong was forced to speak on his own behalf. That he chose to do it in an interview with Oprah Winfrey in a two-part special to air on her OWN network left many scratching their heads. It was a long, slow fall from grace for one of the world's most well known athletes, and although Armstrong consistently denied using any performance enhancing drugs throughout his career and repeatedly passed the drug tests given to him, the information gathered against him just became too overwhelming to deny any longer. In fact, Armstrong stopped fighting the charges leveled against him just before the USADA report was released, making it easy to conclude that he hadn't been entirely truthful about his use of human growth hormone, anabolic steroids, blood transfusions and other forms of doping.
The Oprah interview brings to light how far even great athletes will go to cover up the use of performance enhancing drugs, and how deep the problem goes. Armstrong admitted to doping, but only until 2005, even though some evidence points to blood transfusions as late as 2009, and he vehemently denied that he bullied or threatened others to dope or who wanted to expose his doping regimen. However, many of Armstrong's former teammates and acquaintances have spoken out, and there exists a track record of litigation initiated by Armstrong against anyone who dared to speak up against him. Armstrong's explanation during the interview that his teammates doped because of his example, rather than any strong arm verbal tactics, already have many furious at the former cycling superstar. It seems Armstrong's desperation to hold on to his fairytale career cost him the caring and respect of even those closest to him.
The motivation behind Armstrong's decision to sit down to an interview with Oprah is unclear, especially since the reaction to the interview in the media and in the court of public opinion has ranged from disgust to "so what" shoulder shrugging. For a man who has lost so much: his titles, his Olympic medal, his participation in the sport he supposedly loved, $75 million in sponsorships, and the leadership role in his Livestrong foundation, it seems he still has a long way to go before he can overcome the fallout from his decision to illegally dope and live a life of lies.

While I have been a distant observer of all things Bush for the last five years, having lived in Taiwan during that time, I have noticed one theme in particular. Bush is criticized by his many critics (fittingly) for being a talking suit of his party, an elite son of big money. He is also criticized for his lack of adequate prior political experience. He is just a glorified good ol' boy who was given the election by the Powers That Be.
Now, what has struck me in the past few months of presidential campaigning is how both candidates seem to embody, for their detractors, various aspects of "the Bush problem". McCain, for instance, is criticized as being too wealthy, and thus, implicitly, removed from the realities of the average American. It is ironic, nonetheless, how the rich always suffer this criticism––being detached from the concerns of the little people––and yet how they are also simultaneously held up as paragons of philanthropy and action-group support. It is a fact that the majority of charity has come from the rich, a fact that rests only very awkwardly with the idea that the rich just don't know or care about those in need. In any case, let the criticism stand: McCain embodies the old money provincialism that we have endured for eight years under W. Bush.
As for Obama, he embodies something much more scandalous in the W., namely, his lack of serious political experience. He has been expertly crafted by his party to strike all the right chords in the liberal American ear. And while he may not come from money, there is no denying he now embodies a classic example of an inadvertently aloof academic "thinker" and "orator." Obama is that quintessential punching bag, a lawyer, and one educated at Harvard no less! So, while he may not have sprung full-formed from the brow of the elite, he is now ensconced warmly in the embrace of the ivory tower and elite concerns. Just as Bush's credentials from Yale were meant to balance his populist Texan charm, so Obama's elite credentials are meant to balance his sporadic persona as a "normal American", as a prophetic leader who did not gain his allure from years of elite training, but, mystically, from an inner compass of ebony wholesomeness.
What bothers me is that, insofar as people complain America fell for Bush's polished image––all persona and little substance––, they are being blinded by their own complaints (or blinding others with them) to such an extent that we are being primed to fall for it all again in a new guise. Are we to imagine Obama's handlers are any less real or influential than Bush's? Are we to imagine one talking suit is better than another just because one is black and the other white? Or, at the very least, are we to imagine one inexperienced brain of the elite is better for being more eloquent? If one is making one's criticism of a politician the fact that he or she is too much image and too elite, then I see no way towards a meaningful criticism, given what modern politicking means. By contrast, if one makes one's criticisms of a politician specific legislative and moral points, as I do, then I frankly have very little concern with his elite attachments and moneyed detachments. The bottom line for me is one of principle, not one of comparing one political image against another. Insofar as Obama vigorously, indeed proudly advocates and underwrites the abortion movement in the USA, he is an absolutely unacceptable candidate for me or, I would say, any committed Catholic even basically cognizant of the Church's teachings on the ethic of life and the gravity of sin involved in formally supporting a candidate that violates that ethic.
I have heard it argued there is no grounds for "voting your religion". But this is as nonsensical as arguing we ought not "vote our values" or "vote our desires", insofar as religion conveys and animates the most basic values and desires in our lives. We have no choice but to live, or violate, our own values, including our religious (or irreligious) values. To paraphrase Shakespeare, to our own selves we must be true––and it may just follow the night like the day, that we shan't be taken in by any political image. In the world of modern American politics, we may only have smoke and mirrors to look into when we look into a candidate qua image––but at least if we make choices separate from the image, we can look ourselves in the mirror without shame.

Fearing Climate change? Farmers are the future…..
Fri, 09/20/2019 - 11:59 — Ahmed
"Under climate change environment it is real hard to forecast the future, farmers are the future". The statement was given by Maik Veste from
FarmImpact project
in South Africa.
is an International Partnerships for Sustainable Innovation" project funded by Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) and aims to promote international partnerships in the fields of climate, environment and energy. German experts and partners in Africa and Asia come and work together to achieve the project goals.
The CLIMAFRI Project,
undertaken in West Africa, aims to develop climate-sensitive adaptation strategies in the transboundary Lower Mono river catchment of Togo and Benin. The project involves universities, policymakers and communities. The unique feature of CLIMAFRI project is it's an approach that integrates science-based data with information and knowledge from local stakeholders and communities, to ensure project sustainability. The project results, presented by Yvonne Walz during the Tropentag conference, were promising and possibly would remove the traps for achieving sustainable development goals through overcoming the recurring flood events in areas severe impacts on people and livelihoods.
KlimaLEZ project
aims to strengthen the resilience of Central Asia's agricultural sector by innovative insurance markets against climatic risks, highlighting drought, in particular. The project is currently taking place in Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan focuses on wheat and barley as agricultural produce with the potential to win the battle against climate change. Ihtiyor Bobojonov had an opportunity to present how wheat and barley production in Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan are excelling. Let's look forward and see how modern insurance markets will have the impact on food security, climate resilience and sustainable production.
Non-sustainable land use results in not only ecological loss but also economic consequences due to reduced agricultural produce yield.
is another project from CLIENT II that cooperates and works closely with community, farmers, companies, academia and government to ensure that the results of the intervention will be sustainable under the fear of climate change. Jannis Florian Cartens presented how ReKKs has implemented, and so far achieved, to reduce the fear of climate change and the problem of soil degradation, in the arid steppe regions of Kazakhstan and south-western Siberia, through the change of land use necessitates innovations for sustainable use of agricultural resources. One of the interventions is to promote herbicide use efficiency by coming up with a system that fumigates only targeted plants. Therefore, this reduces pesticide cost and pollution to the environment.
Ghana and Burkina Faso are among the countries facing the issues of land degradation and heavy metal pollution due to ongoing mining activities. Mercury-AMF is one of the CLIENT II projects which makes use of Tropical nitrogen-fixing trees to reduce the mercury concentration in the mercury polluted soils of Ghana and Burkina Faso. Legumes, as a nitrogen-fixing plant type, produce large quantities of biomass, therefore having a high capacity for extensive symbiotic
associations in high mercury-contaminated soils.
During the CLIENT II workshop, Miriam Ehret talked how
Network analysis
was important to come up with strategies that will influence the political environment so as to promote the project sustainability.
How do you involve the small miners in the project?
....."YES, we are working with miners, so far one of our student has worked with them through focus group discussions and in-depth interviews, it is important to include them for the project to sustainability", Miriam Ehret responded the question from the one of the audience.

Spring is here! Images and sounds gathered from recent explorations around my local landscape.
Above is a snippet from recent work along the water's edge near where I live. It is somewhere I come a lot, for peace and tranquillity.
Images were taken on three separate days in the same place. The first day, I looked out of my window at 6.30am, and could see nothing but grey mist… but by the time I got down to the river, the mist was clearing in the warmth of the sun, until there remained just a soft dreamy haze. The other two days were idyllic sunshine.
I have mixed up the days a little, to give you a clearer idea of this extremely small piece of coastal land. The proliferation of flora and fauna, and the subtle differences here from day to day is just incredible.
"… As I come to my favourite bench up high overlooking the river; the daffodils that were flourishing here just a few weeks ago, have died down now, and are replaced by bluebells.
It is here that people sometimes bring wild bird seed, and deposit it on either end of the bench. One end of the bench has been carved into quite a sizeable bowl by the pecking of a myriad beaks over time. A robin parades around in front of me, looking bright and handsome. I pretend not to notice. I hear the quiet fluttering of many wings around my head, and spot a chaffinch hanging around in the bushes. I never bring anything, (I am so mean!)."
I lay back amongst the sea campion at the foot of the cliffs, soaking up the sun… I sat very still, watching the river, at that motionless low tide point when life seemed to stop … and then, in mid-river, I saw the beginnings of a thin stream of fast water run in from the ocean, causing the reflected world to shiver… The memories sank deep within and became a part of myself.
At the end of this video clip you can see the woodland stream running down to the place on the beach where I made the seaweed rings.
I am hoping to continue my creative explorations and researches in this area over the next year or so. But unfortunately it is being threatened by the possibility of what most of us would consider inappropriate 'development'. In the knowledge that our physical and mental wellbeing, indeed our very lives depend on our natural environment, this is sad news indeed.
Is my experience of this beautiful place all the more precious because of the threat of its destruction? Well, no – because I consider this infinitely complex balance of ecosystems is precious anyway.
However, it has given it certain intensity – a realisation that I cannot just sit back and take it all for granted!

Because Mother's Day is not celebrated on the same day each year, it makes things a little more difficult. It is always celebrated on the second Sunday in May, which means the physical date will change each year. Mother's Day is a holiday that is observed by many, but it's not an official federal holiday. Since it's not an official federal holiday, most government entities will keep their regular business hours. However, it is on a Sunday when most federal businesses would have normally been closed anyway.
Are Banks Open on Mother's Day?
Most banks will be closed. If a holiday, like Mother's Day, is not a federal holiday, then most banks will keep their normal business hours. Because Mother's Day is on a Sunday each year, most banks won't be open just as they are usually not open on regular Sundays. The two exceptions to this "rule" are TD Bank and Citizens Bank (grocery store branches). These two banks have branches open on most Sundays (unless it is a federal holiday). Some grocery store branches, like TD bank, will be open on Sunday, May 14.
Are Credit Unions Open on Mother's Day?
Most credit unions will be closed. Just like banks, if a holiday isn't a federal holiday, credit unions will be open. However, Mother's Day is on a Sunday. This means that they will be closed because most credit unions are not open on Sunday. If your credit union is usually open on Sunday, you may want to give your branch a call and see if they will be open this Sunday.
While bank and credit union branches won't be open, ATMs will work. ATMs will allow customers to do basic financial transactions on Mother's Day if they need to. Along the same lines, your bank or credit union's website can be used to do many different financial transactions even on days they are closed for a holiday.
Are Post Offices Open on Mother's Day?
If you are wondering, "are banks open on Mother's Day" you may also be wondering about the United States Postal Service and its post offices. Most post offices will be closed on Mother's Day because it's on a Sunday. Again, they're not closing because of the holiday, but because they are normally closed on all Sundays. If you have a post office that happens to be open on Sundays, you should contact it to verify that it will also be open on Mother's Day.
Because Mother's Day lands on a Sunday each year and it is not considered a federal holiday, most businesses will continue on as usual. However, if the business is usually open on Sundays, you may want to call ahead of time to double check that they will be open on Mother's Day.

KIGALI (Rwanda)- Industrialization in Africa is essential for the development of the continent, Minister of State, Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation Ramtane Lamamra said Saturday in Kigali.
Lamamra is representing President of the Republic Abdelaziz Bouteflika at the 35th session of the Heads of State and Government Orientation Committee (HSGOC) of the NEPAD (New Partnership for Africa's Development).
"Rapid regional and international economic changes confirm our choices and convictions that industrialization is a key condition in the development of the continent," the representative of President Bouteflika said.
The minister stressed the need to "make more joint efforts to meet the challenges."
"The diversification of our economies, mainly through industrialization, is not only a legitimate right for a continent possesses the required resources to meet the challenge, but a must on the road to the wished emergence and a pledge for a sustainable and quality economic development that leads to structural change for our economies."
Lamamra added that the "pragmatic implementation of the view brought by AU Agenda 2063 in the field is an overriding need for giving a concrete expression to this goal."

"Freemium": Services that Start Free, Charge for Services
A great alternative to all this, is the idea of giving away a basic version of your service, then trying to upsell a more valuable version. CNN has a story about this today, along with a clever new buzzword: "Freemium". They give some good tips on the business model. My personal favorite:
6. Harness the collective intelligence of your users. Mårten Mickos, CEO of MySQL, says customer suggestions can help speed up product improvements or inspire ideas for premium services.
Holy CrowdSourcing. That's great: the idea of giving away the service can naturally create a community of people that are clearly involved with the concept and can help to establish the core group of consumer-advocates that can be critical to success.
