UNITED NATIONS (AFP) - The United States on Friday (March 15) clashed with China at the UN Security Council over Beijing's Belt and Road initiative, saying the infrastructure investment scheme had "known problems" with corruption and debt distress.
The US-China spat soured negotiations on a resolution on Afghanistan, forcing the council to adopt a temporary rollover of the UN mission there for six months instead of a year.
Beijing's flagship initiative, which aims to develop new trade routes through major infrastructure projects such as airports and roads, has been described by critics as Chinese expansionism.
US Acting Ambassador Jonathan Cohen accused China of demanding that the resolution highlight the Belt and Road initiative "despite its tenuous ties to Afghanistan and known problems with corruption, debt distress, environmental damage, and lack of transparency".
Cohen bluntly accused China of holding UN negotiations hostage "by making it about Chinese national political priorities rather than the people of Afghanistan".
China shot back, with Deputy Ambassador Wu Haitao telling the council that Cohen's remarks were "at variance with facts and fraught with prejudice".
"This is an initiative of economic cooperation aimed at achieving common development and prosperity. It has nothing to do with geopolitics," said Wu.
The sharp exchange came as the United States and China are locked in negotiations aimed at ending a trade war that has left businesses struggling with tariffs on billions of dollars in two-way commerce.
The UN resolution on the Afghanistan mission has contained language on cooperation with the Belt and Road initiative since 2016.
The US insistence that the call for cooperation with the Chinese initiative be dropped from the resolution followed sharp criticism last year by Vice President Mike Pence who said the program had left countries drowning in debt.
The United States has sought to challenge the Chinese scheme but the initiative continues to draw support. On Monday, Italy said it would sign a memorandum of understanding to officially support the Belt and Road Initiative.
More than 123 countries have signed agreements to cooperate with China under the program, Wu said.

Adopted from an article by Philip Guo
Grades do not necessarily reflect effort
Of course, better grades are often correlated with greater student effort, but effort alone does not determine one's grade. It is dangerous to have a sense of entitlement that "If I work X hours, then I deserve a grade of Y" or "Z got an A last semester and put in W amount of work, so if I put in at least W amount of work, then I should also get an A". Often times, there is simply no such thing as an "A for effort".
Grades do not necessarily reflect aptitude
Although employers might look at grades as a first-pass filtering step, what they really care about (or, rather, should care about) is real abilities and work ethic. If I were interviewing for a software engineering position, I would ask the candidate about technical concepts and his work experiences. If he were able to explain himself clearly with competence and enthusiasm, that would more than make up for a lack of an A grade. Conversely, if I interviewed a candidate who received an A in the class but didn't seem to be able to speak competently about his technical experiences, then I wouldn't care about his A grade — I would hands-down prefer the B candidate who actually knew what he was talking about.
Grades only reflect how you perform what is required for a class
So if grades do not necessarily reflect effort or aptitude, then what do they reflect? They simply reflect how well a student has performed what is required for a class.
Why you shouldn't get arrogant only because you have good grades
You should never be arrogant or overly proud simply because you received good grades in your classes, unless you think that satisfying artificial requirements set by your instructors is a highly valuable accomplishment in itself.
How important are grades?
From the tone of my observations so far, it seems like you shouldn't care about grades at all, but most of the time, the contrary is actually true. When people ask me how important grades are in college, I will respond with my own question: "What do you want to do after you graduate?"
Your post-graduation plans (not parents, not peer pressure, not personal ego) should be the most important factor in determining how much grades matter to you.
If you are applying to medical school, you probably need a pretty high GPA (grade point average) so grades probably matter a lot. If you are applying for Ph.D. programs, you should be much more concerned about gaining research experience instead of simply getting good grades. If you want to begin full-time work, you should focus on internships and professional networking in addition to your academics. If you are going to inherit your parents' billion-dollar fortune after you graduate, you shouldn't care about your grades at all, as long as you pass your classes. For almost everyone (except for the uber-wealthy heirs), grades will somehow matter, but it's up to you to determine how much you want to stress about them.
Required classes that you don't care about at all
Throughout your undergraduate career, you will invariably need to take many required classes that you don't really care about at all, and you have a choice to either not worry about your grades or to 'eat your peas' and work hard in them to try to get good grades even though you have little to no interest in the class material. Your choice of what to do about these classes depends largely on how important your GPA will be in determining what you want to do after you graduate. There is nothing wrong with doing the answer sniping (legally without cheating) or exam cramming thing just to get high grades without really understanding the class material if you simply need to boost your GPA, but if you ever need to demonstrate to somebody that you've mastered the material for some class, you better be prepared to actually learn it.

This year has seen several SOHO (Solar and Heliospheric Observatory) videos emerge, showing massive planetary scale anomalies. The latest video, (uploaded by YouTube user rob19791) shows a Jupiter sized structured craft in the frame of one of SOHO's video sequences. The SOHO website allows users to view and download the latest images and movies of solar activity, including solar flares and sunspots.
But before we look at the latest video, there have been two major anomalies reported already in the last 6 months. In December, one intriguing video appeared to show a cloaked craft of some description near Mercury. The structure of the object only became visible after a CME blasted through the area of space in which the object was residing.
Then in March this year, a mysterious Death Star shaped Orb seemed to attach itself and possibly refuel from the sun. The official explanation – a "filament" from the sun. Whether filaments can be spherical is another question altogether. Even so, it does not explain (if it was a filament), how a filament can remain completely spherical and stationery while the sun is in constant rotation as shown in the video.
Both the Death Star like object and the craft visible after the CME were given feeble and inadequate official explanations that do not properly account for what we are seeing.
The latest video was posted on May 5, and shows footage taken two days earlier by SOHO. The video clearly shows a massive rectangular object near the surface of the Sun.
So what was the official explanation for this? The modern day equivalent of swamp-gas – "Cosmic rays" was the official line from the United States Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) — streaks of charged particles whizzing through space that get picked up by cameras. Then a day after the footage was shot, live streaming images from SOHO were disabled. Another coincidence? Step forward NASA with the old swamp gas routine – "SOHO went into 'Emergency Sun Reacquisition' mode on Friday May 4, 2012, caused by a false trigger of the Coarse Sun Pointing Attitude Anomaly Detector. We are working on the recovery of the spacecraft to normal mode."
The uploader of the latest video, rob19791, was not impressed and has made it clear he thinks there is an ongoing coverup.
"NASA are clearly trying to stop us looking at the sun. The reasons could be anything from the crafts/ships seen recently or an impending solar flare that will wipe out humanity." – YouTube User rob19791
About the SOHO Project
SOHO, the Solar & Heliospheric Observatory, is a project of international collaboration between ESA and NASA to study the Sun from its deep core to the outer corona and the solar wind.
SOHO was launched on December 2, 1995. The SOHO spacecraft was built in Europe by an industry team led by prime contractor Matra Marconi Space (now EADS Astrium) under overall management by ESA. The twelve instruments on board SOHO were provided by European and American scientists. Nine of the international instrument consortia are led by European Principal Investigators (PI's), three by PI's from the US. Large engineering teams and more than 200 co-investigators from many institutions supported the PI's in the development of the instruments and in the preparation of their operations and data analysis. NASA was responsible for the launch and is now responsible for mission operations. Large radio dishes around the world which form NASA's Deep Space Network are used for data downlink and commanding. Mission control is based at Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland.

At West Point, 'Goats' Are an Exclusive Bunch
Military Academy Honors Lowest-Ranking Cadet; Custer's Last Place
When cadet Roberto Becerra Jr. walked onstage to graduate from the United States Military Academy at West Point in 2007, the entire ceremony ground to a halt as he, before a crowd of thousands, transformed into a goat.
For this achievement, Mr. Becerra received a rousing ovation and was handed an envelope stuffed with cash.

Auto Sales Roll Downhill
Car Makers, Consumers Are in a Standoff as Inventories Pile Up; Hard Landing Looms
Auto sales in the last two months have slumped to a pace at which more vehicles could go to the junkyard this year than will be bought to replace them. Inventory is piling up. Consumers are sitting on the sidelines. Something has to give – but what?
In other retail sectors, merchants and manufacturers are resorting to big markdowns to liquidate the merchandise. The auto industry will fight hard to avoid going to the sort of fire sale price-cutting that has become standard at mall stores. Edmunds.com, the auto shopping...

During your physical, your doctor will do the following:
- assess your overall health
- ask about heart disease symptoms and risk factors
- check your blood pressure
- listen to your heart and lungs
- check the circulation in your legs
- take a blood sample
There's no way for your doctor to tell by examining you whether you have high cholesterol. But an exam may bring to light signs or symptoms that suggest you have or are at greater risk for high cholesterol or heart disease. To find out for sure whether you have high cholesterol, your doctor will take a sample of your blood for testing.
What If I Do Have High Cholesterol?
If you have high cholesterol, your doctor will want to examine you further. Your doctor will want to check whether you have any illnesses that can cause high cholesterol. These include diabetes and some forms of thyroid, liver, or kidney disease. If you have one of these conditions, you need proper treatment for them to help control your cholesterol. Your doctor will also want to review any medicines you take, because some can affect your level of cholesterol or triglycerides.

Congratulations mommy to be! Maternity photography is a must for any growing family, it is a beautiful time in your life that should be documented and saved forever. Show off that baby bump and be proud of how amazing it is that a little human is growing inside you!
We know that carrying a baby isn't all rainbows and unicorns; it's a period in your life when you often feel bloated and uncomfortable. So you may not feel like a swimsuit model, but don't worry as professional photographers with years of experience in family photography it is my job to make sure that you feel beautiful and comfortable.
As you begin preparing for your maternity photo session here are a few of our favorite tips for ensuring that your lovely pregnancy glow shines through in all of your photographs.
1. Timing is everything
When is the best time to schedule your pregnancy session? Well honestly that answer will vary from person to person. As a general rule of thumb somewhere in the seven to eight month time frame is often the best. The goal is wait until you're belly is big and round, but not too big. Being a model is hard work so it's important that you don't feel so uncomfortable that holding different positions becomes too much.
The twenty-eight to thirty-four week time frame is also ideal since it will give you enough time to display all of your stunning maternity photos at your baby shower and decorate your nursery. Plus, this way you will have that extra time to really admire your new pregnancy photos before things get too crazy and hectic as the due date nears.
2. Location, Location, Location
Where is the best location to take maternity photos? Again this answer really just depends on what you are most comfortable with and what you envision. There are three different locations that seem to be the most popular: The privacy of your own home, a photography studio, or outdoors. Really there is no wrong option!
We love the idea of personalizing your maternity session by having it in your nursery to show off all the new adorable baby décor you just bought. Or the romantic, relaxed feeling of taking your pregnancy photos on your own bed is always a favorite. The one word of caution that we have with choosing to have your photographs indoors is taking lighting into account. Natural outdoor lighting is the best so we recommend that you only go this route if your bedroom or nursery has large windows with lots of sunlight.
Studios are a great option if you are looking for something with more of a formal feel. Lately the airy feel of an all white backdrop has been trending, and for good reason! Keeping the background blank keeps the focus all on you and often creates a feminine ethereal feel that looks stunning in photographs.
Choosing an outdoor location wins in terms of popularity. The natural sunlight and endless location options and spots make choosing an outdoor setting an ideal option. Whether it's on the beach, in the hustle and bustle of the city, or in an open field, opt for an outdoor location that fits you and your family's personality and lifestyle. Plus with tons of beautiful landscapes and photography spots here inHermosa Beach and Los Angeles we know lots of amazing locations that we'd love to recommend!
3. Going Solo or Include Your Significant Other
Should I include my husband in my maternity photography session? Here at Heather Leyse Photography we can customize thematernity shoot to fit your specific wants and needs. If you would prefer to focus the photography session on just you and your adorable baby bump we will to just that! Or if including your significant other is important to you we of course can incorporate your loved one and choose poses that portrays the love you both have for one another and your growing family. Speaking of family photography lets including your other kids in on all the fun too! Nothing is more adorable than soon to be sibling shots of belly kisses and hugs.
4. What to Wear
What should I wear to my maternity photo shoot? We get asked this question all the time and it might just be the difficult one to answer. First and foremost being comfortable and confident in your outfit of choice is the most important. If you feel uncomfortable in what you're wearing it will show through in your pictures. Choosing something that shows off your beautiful belly is pretty important too, since that's why we're taking these pictures right? Don't hide your baby bump!
Lots of mommy's to be will ask us about how much skin is appropriate to show. This of course is all relevant to your comfort level. We believe that lingerie shots or even nude shots are raw and beautifully vulnerable. As skilled photographers located in Hermosa Beach, California we of course will keep things appropriate and respectfully discreet!
Final Thoughts
Maternity shoots are all about you and making you feel comfortable and beautiful! We are beyond thrilled to be a part of such a special time in your life. Family photography is our specialty and we absolutely love being a part of your growing family every step of the way. Whether it's your engagement session, wedding, maternity session, newborn shoot, or family portraits our goal is to create a lasting relationship. Here at Heather Leyse Photographer we don't have clients but lifelong friends.

A new UNICEF report says significant gains are being made in the fight against malaria in sub-Saharan Africa. The report says controlling the disease is vital to improving child health and economic development.
UNICEF Executive Director Ann Veneman unveiled the report entitled Malaria and Children.
?This fight is crucial for the well-being of children. Malaria kills around one-million people each year, 90 percent of whom are in sub-Saharan Africa. More than 800,000 of these are children under the age of five,? she says.
She says the Roll Back Malaria Campaign target is to have 80 percent of the people at risk from malaria protected by the year 2010. Veneman says the new report shows progress toward that goal is being made.
?It finds that global funding for malaria control has risen more than ten-fold over the past decade helping increase the production of long-lasting, insecticide treated nets from
30-million in 2004 to 63-million in 2006. And 16 of the 20 countries in sub-Saharan Africa for which data is available have at least tripled their coverage of bed nets since 2000,? she says.
Better treatment is also more available.
Veneman says, ?Nearly all African countries have now adopted the WHO (World Health Organization) recommended Artemisinin-based combination therapy or ACT. As a result, global ACT procurement grew from around three million doses in 2003 to some 100-million doses in 2006.?
Despite the progress, the UNICEF executive-director calls for expanding community-based health services and linking malaria treatment to treatment of other childhood diseases, such as pneumonia, diarrhea and malnutrition.
?The success detailed in the report demonstrates that progress can be made against malaria, and in a short period of time,? she says.
Rear Admiral Tim Ziemer, who heads the five-year, $1.2 billion President?s Malaria Initiative, says a combined effort is needed to roll back malaria. He outlines a three-part plan to do that.
?By coming together through effective partnership, not just talking about partnership, but doing it, which is much harder. By bringing more resources to the table. More than we have ever had before. So let?s celebrate that, but then hold each other accountable as we move forward. And then the third principle is a commitment to working together from a common plan based on the national requirements and the national context,? he says.
Admiral Ziemer says the tide against malaria can be turned, saying, ?we know what to do, we know how to do it.?

Crazy Minnesota--last weekend it was 80s, and this weekend there was snow to the north of the cities Friday night. I am certainly enjoying the cool down, especially for sleeping!
Lesson learned over the last month: never try to make seven year's worth of lunar calendars at the same time. That was 84 months total that I have been sporadically plugging away at as prep-work for my Triune novels, and it has been far from fun. I was finally bearing down on the finish line last night, then realized that because I don't have Photoshop (just Photoshop Elements) I would have to copy out each of those 84 images separately. So what a relief that at least I DIDN'T have to import those images separately into Word, and that the framework for those first seven years is finally DONE. Another bright side--I won't need to make any more Triune lunar calendars until I hit the epilogue of the second book, God willing.
Got to see my old boss Bill twice this week--we finally connected to go to the Farmer's Market together on Tuesday, and then on Friday I had lunch out with him and Dawn. We went to Hunan Garden (first time there for me and Bill) and had the lunch buffet. It was fabulous, and a wonderful time catching up as well. Can't forget the message from God in my fortune cookie! =)
I'm getting increasingly fond of the Farmer's Market in the neighboring suburb on Saturday mornings. Today I was able to get some locally produced honey, which will be delicious for making granola and corn bread.
Cold weather is cooking weather! Today for lunch I had beets roasted in the oven with the greens wilted on the side (fantastic!). Dinner was even better--months past I found a recipe for black bean soup in a magazine put out by my car insurance! Today I got to try it out, and also made corn bread with a recipe I found that has no eggs required (YAY!). both came out quite nicely, and now I get to enjoy the leftovers, for days.

We can fix most of your appliances within 24 Hours.
Plus, it's "Fast & Easy " to get you scheduled with our seasoned technicians!
In fact, we're open 24 HRS a day 7 Days a week to answer emergency situations, too.
We rely on refrigerators every day. They cool our food, keeping them safe to eat. They store a lot of stuff and are a highlight of our kitchens.
When they break down, so do we, unfortunately.
That's why A+ Appliance Repair pays special attention when something has broken , we take care to get out there on the same day to repair a refrigerator.
We sent the owner of A+, Terry, to this customer's home. Terry is a great service tech, too, and he immediately diagnosed the Sub Zero refrigerator. This diagnostic procedure—which was no cost after the repairs were completed, by the way—brought to light several problems.
The customer had complained that the refrigerator wasn't keeping food cool. Well, no wonder; this Sub Zero refrigerator had five components fail (or were failing) at once! You see, a leak caused multiple problems to all these parts that required their replacement.
We replaced the heat exchanger, the freezer evaporator, the compressor & accumulator during this Sub Zero refrigerator repair. We also sealed up the leak so it won't cause any more problems in this refrigerator.
Now, after the repairs, this refrigerator will last for many more years. Of course, this made our customer extremely happy and we can do the same for your refrigerator or any other appliance.
Washing machine drums get old and rusty.
When that happens, you need to get the washer repaired right away. If not, it could leak and cause a flood and potentially be dangerous for falls and even electric shock.
I was able to repair the drum on this washer within 48 hours. I also made sure that it was cleaned out inside as well as working perfectly for this homeowner.
We also do all sorts of other washing machine repairs too.
We get called all the time from customers looking for help with their dryers that have broken and need to be repaired.
In this case this local resident called us because their dryer had stopped working. They had a Samsung dryer that needed to be fixed.
Our technician was able to come out and help quickly. He found that the Whirlpool dryer had a defective pulley assembly.
We were able to replace the pulley assembly and then we provided some preventive maintenance.
We were able to completely fix the dryer within 2 hours.
There are digital displays on all of our modern appliances, it seems. They display the time, the temperature and other critical information when you are cooking. When they go blank, or just completely fuzzy like this one, it can be hard to properly cook your food.
On this day, Terry came out to perform a full diagnostic on a Samsung oven.
The customer complained that the display was very blurry and they could not see the time on the display, nor observe the countdown or temperature as the oven was cooking.
Within minutes Terry found the low voltage transformer wasn't supplying enough voltage to the display. By replacing the control board the transformer was on the issue was fixed.
Did you know there are 1,000s of various appliance models, types, and problems.
Because of this, we offer a full appliance diagnosis on each visit. Our full-in-depth diagnostic is just $39.95
Our $39.95 diagnostic service covers us driving out to your location and diagnosing your appliance.
If you choose to get your appliance repaired, we roll that diagnostic charge right into the repair cost.
NOTE: You will know exactly how much the repair will cost before we start working.
Sometimes it is cheaper to replace the appliance rather than repair it. In those cases we will honestly tell you that so you can make the best decision possible.
Most likely you have never repaired an appliance yourself. You may have never hired someone to repair one, either.
Doesn't it make sense to call experts who have repaired so many hundreds of appliances already?
Of course it does.
Hurry and get your appliance working like normal again.
Yes. If you choose to have us do the repair, we waive the $39.95 diagnostic service.
We have been offering appliance repair service on our own since 2016.
However, Terry has been repairing appliances for over 8 years now.
We hope you will be another happy customer of ours.
Most appliance repair appointments can be scheduled within 24 - 48 hours.
We work tirelessly to serve our clients quickly.
We know how much of a pain and inconvenience it can be to have a broken appliance.
Laundry doesn't get done, and meals don't get cooked...or food start to go bad.
We are the best option to get your life back to normal quickly.

Coffee BeansThe Philippines is one of the few countries that produces the four species of coffee: Arabica, Liberica (Barako), Excelsa and Robusta. Climatic and soil conditions in the Philippines - from the lowland to mountain regions - make the country suitable for all four species. At Commune, we take pride in using only high quality beans, sourced directly from farmers, in various coffee-growing areas in the country like Benguet, Sagada, South Cotobato, Kapatagan and Bukidnon.
Single Origin
Single origin coffee is coffee grown within a single known geographic origin -- a single farm, or a specific collection of beans from a single country. Unlike blends, single origin coffee usually has unique flavors and nuances that reflect the origin of the beans. Ask our barista to know which single-origin beans are available.
Originating in the highlands of Ethiopia, Arabica is the finest quality of coffee bean that makes up about 80% of the world's coffee production. Arabica coffee has floral, fruity, citrus, earthy, buttery, chocolate, caramel, honey, or sugar notes, depending on origin. In the Philippines, Arabica is grown in Benguet, Kalinga, Cotabato, Davao, and Sagada.
The fruit ("cherry") of the coffee plant contains two seeds ("beans") that develop with flattened facing sides. These round-shaped coffee beans are called "peaberries."
Robusta originated in central and western sub-Saharan Africa and thrives on lowlands like Cavite, Bulacan, and Mindoro. It has almost double the amount of caffeine, giving it a sharper flavor and a burnt or woody aftertaste. However, Robusta has more antioxidants and has a lower acidity compared to other coffees.
Commune Blend
Commune's own blend of coffee, the Commune blend, is a blend of Arabica beans (which give flavor and aroma) and a bit of Robusta (for the caffeinated kick).

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Smarp, the Finland-based startup specializing in employee engagement and advocacy solutions, has announced that it will relocate its United States offices from New York City, NY to Atlanta, GA.
In May 2018, Smarp secured €4.2M in Series A funding round from Nauta Capital, specifically earmarked to bolster the company's expansion beyond the Eurozone. US customers now account for around 30% of Smarp's users and billings.
"Over the next few years, we plan to grow our Atlanta operations into equal status and importance as our global headquarters in Helsinki, Finland," said Smarp CEO Roope Heinilä.
Founded in 2011, Smarp maintains offices in London and Stockholm. The company first opened a physical presence in the US in 2015, with its North American business development and customer success management teams initially operating from New York City.
Smarp sees Atlanta as a better environment for growth and talent acquisition. Georgia is consistently cited as the top state for doing business. It is also a leading hotspot for available elite tech talent.
Heinilä shared his excitement about the move. "Our primary criterion was the availability of talent, and Atlanta's world-class universities and diverse talent pool made it a top pick for us. In New York, we found that much of the talent pool was focused on the financial and media industries, whereas we see Atlanta as a growing tech hub with a vast and diverse talent pool."
"Smarp's selection of Atlanta as its U.S. headquarters underscores the continuing growth of Atlanta's high-tech industry and reflects the expanding business links between Georgia and Finland," said John Saunders, Honorary Consul of Finland in Atlanta and a partner at Smith, Gambrell & Russell, LLP.
Assistance from The Georgia Department of Economic Development was instrumental in Smarp's decision, along with key support from the Metro Atlanta Chamber and Georgia Power.
"Smarp's new North American headquarters here provides our business community with more solutions for employee engagement and advocacy," said Metro Atlanta Chamber President and CEO Hala Moddelmog. "I am excited to see another international company choose Georgia and join our strong technology ecosystem."

Landscapes are dynamic – they have been manipulated and sculpted by both people and nature throughout human history. Restoration projects that do not account for predictable and/or potentially risky changes in the surrounding landscape are at risk (e.g., demographic changes may create more or less competition for land; increases in demand for resources may expand the amount of and type of agriculture or resource extraction activities next to or near the restoration site, etc.).
Salafsky, Margoluis and Redford (2001) define adaptive management as "the integration of design, management, and monitoring to systematically test assumptions in order to adapt and learn" (p. 13). Without some form of adaptive management framework, any unexpected discoveries (different soils, drainage structures, etc.) cannot be effectively addressed. "Surprises" should always be expected, and someone who understands the restoration project plan thoroughly needs to be on call throughout the construction phase. As Cottam (1987) said, "the unexpected is to be expected."(p. 269) Adaptive management needs to begin as soon as any part of the project is completed. For instance, if a portion of a recently restored wetland is ignored because the rest of the project is not completed, invasive plant species can begin to take hold. Waiting until the project is finished is too late. If the invasive plant species are treated immediately it can be a small job but waiting for any period of time will make the job much bigger and, if put off too long, it may become impossible to address successfully.
As temperature and precipitation patterns change, landscapes, including wetlands, will respond. The ability of plants and wildlife to adapt to these changes will be variable, so the extent and composition of wetlands are likely to change as well. The plants and animals, as well as hydrology and soil condition that currently exist on a spot on the landscape may not be suited to that site in the future. Rising sea levels will inundate coastal wetlands and shift habitats upslope and inland, where there are no barriers. Adaptive management plans are needed to guide wetland restoration efforts to respond to changes in temperature and precipitation and achieve appropriate project goals. While we anticipate changes to wetland hydrology, soils and biological communities due to climate change, it is not clear that long term monitoring is in place to record those changes.

Searching for International Scholarships
The United States has long been known as the "land of opportunity". That is particularly true when it comes to colleges and universities. While most of those schools welcome international students with open arms, it can be challenging for non-citizens to find and receive international scholarships to defray the cost.

When Cardinal Francis Arinze of Nigeria spoke at the commencement services at Georgetown University in the spring of 2003, his message to the graduates was that happiness is not found in the pursuit of material wealth or pleasures of the flesh but by fervently adhering to convictional beliefs.
Arinze, who also serves as the head of the Vatican's Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue, went on to say that in many parts of the world the family is under siege as a result of what he called an anti-life mentality, evident in advocacy for abortion, infanticide and euthanasia. Instead of the family being honored, he said, today the family is scorned. It is banalized by pornography, desecrated by fornication and adultery, mocked by homosexuality, sabotaged by irregular unions, and cut in two by divorce.
We might think that a message like this at a prestigious Catholic University in the heart of Washington, D.C. should not be unexpected. Yet people got up to leave in protest in the middle of the speech and 70 faculty members signed a stinging letter charging Cardinal Arinze with "inappropriate remarks."
Jonathan Rausch and David Brooks, who write for the Atlantic Monthly, have recently described such responses in the church in this country as pictures of "flexidoxy," which they say has infiltrated the church. No longer, they observe, is the church concerned with orthodoxy-that is, the true teaching, the sound doctrine, the faith once for all delivered to the saints (Jude 3)-or with false teaching.
The church in America wants to be as flexible as the shifting currents of our society, the authors write. The result, they say, is another new category of people-not convictional theists or antagonistic atheists, but apatheists, which is shorthand for apathetic theists. Thus, borrowing from these writers, the church in America overall could be described by ideas like "apatheistic flexidoxy." Yet Jesus, in John 17, prays something very different for His followers.
John 17 is the Lord's own prayer where we see Him pouring out His heart to the Father for His followers. This prayer is certainly the "Holy of Holies" of the gospel record, as Jesus prayed not only for His immediate followers but for His followers through the ages, for all true believers for all time.
The first five verses of John 17 provide one of the truly high water marks of New Testament Christology. It reminds us that this One who is praying today for His followers is the one, true, exalted, majestic, cosmic Lord of heaven and King of earth. Then, beginning at verse 6 to the end of the chapter, Jesus prays for His followers-for the true church through the centuries. In Romans 8:34 and Hebrews 7:25 we are reminded that Jesus prays for His own still today at the right hand of God. And I believe this prayer in John 17 is still what He prays for us today.
If you have traveled around the world or just across the country, you know that Christ-followers are different and diverse-red, yellow, black, and white; young and old; small and large; short and tall; thin and overweight; urban, rural, suburban; educated and uneducated; well-known and anonymous; rich and poor�on and on the list could go. But in spite of our many differences, geographical and otherwise, we belong to the same Lord-and thus to each other.
Yet believers, especially in this country, often exhibit a petty spirit, one of selfishness, competition, and disunity. If we take this prayer seriously, such division, such a spirit, such actions must break our Savior's heart.
One of the things that gains the attention of the world and authenticates our message is the way Christians love each other and live and serve together in harmony. I believe it is this witness that our Lord wants and expects from us in the world. The lost world cannot see God, but they can see Christians.
It is true that the secular media often present Christians in the worst light, but sadly on more than one occasion we have provided the ink for their stories. So often what the unbelieving world sees in us is what they believe about God. If the world sees love and unity, they will believe that God is love. If they see constant fighting, bickering, and discord, they likely will misunderstand and reject the gospel message.
In verse 20 of John 17, Jesus says that some will believe because of our witness-because Christ's followers are to be both loving and true. Thus, there is every reason we should love one another and live in unity. Yes, there are differences, but those things that we share in common should bring joy to our hearts and encourage us to love one another, promoting genuine Christian unity at every opportunity.
However, we cannot miss the second theme of Jesus' prayer in John 17-the emphasis on truth and holiness, for ultimately true unity is based on true truth! Any other kind of unity is earthly, worldly, temporal, and ultimately empty. The Word brings joy and love to us, and it also imparts God's power for righteous and holy living, a righteous and holy living that distinguishes the church from the world.
Jesus' prayer, then, is not only for spiritual unity, but also for sanctified truth. Verse 17 is the key, where He prays, "Sanctify them in truth, Your word is truth!"
Thus the church is to be in the world as a witness to the truth-not to be of the world, not to think or live like the world. The church, according to both the church's early confession and according to the prayer of Jesus, is not only one and universal but also holy and apostolic.
Just as it saddens the Father and the Son when we demonstrate discord rather than unity, so it saddens the Father and the Son and harms the witness of the church when we look to the world to be our guide rather than looking to God's Word.
While our postmodern world encourages the church in the direction of an "apatheistic flexidoxy," Jesus calls for sanctifying truth. Today we must commit ourselves to becoming agents of reconciliation and agents of grace in a fractured and broken world. For some, that will require grace to overcome painful hurts of the past and, for others, it will require grace to overcome the baggage of cultural prejudices.
This is not a call for some politically correct multiculturalism, but rather it is a faithful response to Christ's prayer for joyful unity among all of His followers!

The period from 1970 to 1999 was probably the most eventful in Ericsson's history. From having been a traditional telecom supplier, Ericsson was transformed into a leading-edge company in communications and information transmission. This development was the result of a systematic structuring and adaptation of the organization to changes in the market and investments in technical development. The effects are evident in the strong growth in both sales and profit.
On the surface, this growth seems to have occurred during the 1990s, but the foundation for Ericsson's expansion had already been laid in the 1970s. With its industrial base in electromechanical technology, Ericsson in the early 1970s had stable sales to customers throughout the world.
Starting in 1973, problems began to mount. The oil crisis and a deterioration in public finances in several countries led to a postponement of new investments and renewal of public telephone networks. Competition between telephone manufacturers increased. To stay in the running in bidding contests, it was not only necessary to press prices, but also at times to help the purchaser with financing. For Ericsson's weak financial resources, this was often a significant problem.
As the telecom market began to be deregulated in the late 1970s, opportunities were opened for Ericsson to enter markets that had been closed previously. The greatest interest was focused on the huge North American market. However, deregulation of telecom markets also led to a sharpening of competition, as nationally focused companies were attracted to global markets.
Although Ericsson had fared relatively well during the weak business cycles during the 1970s, net sales in fixed prices declined and profits suffered. Uncertainty in currency markets and a high rate of Swedish inflation during these decades contributed not only to driving up Ericsson's costs, but also to exchange losses. The situation did not improve until the Swedish currency was devalued in 1981 and 1982.
Towards the mid-1980s, net sales and profits rose somewhat. The improvement was primarily due to the introduction of the AXE system almost ten years earlier, but was also in part a result of the diversification of operations that was initiated in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Through these investments, Ericsson sought not only to retain its position in telecommunications technology, but also to establish itself in distributed data processing and office automation. This meant a broader product portfolio than previously, as well as the acquisition of companies that were not directly involved with telecommunications. These investments were made in parallel with an intensive research effort in data communications.
Successes for new technical platforms, including the AXE system, however, meant that Ericsson in the mid-1980s decided to concentrate its operations on the company's core business. It was concluded that data and telecommunications would develop rapidly in the latter half of the 1980s and the 1990s and that it would be necessary to consolidate operations to be able to defend the positions the company had already attained in these areas. As a result, operations were divested that were not linked to communications and efforts were devoted to developing system solutions that corresponded to market demand and that could be adapted to specific customer requirements.
In the late 1980s and 1990s, Ericsson's operations were concentrated to the most rapidly growing markets. The company's production thus came to consist more of testing and assembly, rather than traditional manufacturing in which raw materials were refined into a finished product. The change resulted in a rationalization of the company's operations and retraining of personnel, but also that less capital was tied up in inventories, machinery and property. In addition, the new strategy meant that investments in digital technology were even more evident.
Over the short term, this change meant that certain costs were incurred and that neither sales nor profits developed particularly favorably. The major change, however, came in 1994, with the breakthrough for digital mobile telephony - embodied by the GSM standard - which resulted in sharply increased sales and earnings growth. By the end of the 1990s, Ericsson's profit amounted to 8 to 10 percent of net sales, which can be compared with profit ten years earlier, which was between 4 and 5 percent.

Sunset Junction Director Tells His Side of the Story
Michael McKinley, a co-founder and current director of the embattled Sunset Junction Street Fair, is starting to speak out in the wake of unflattering media coverage of the last-minute cancellation of his 2011 event. He gave his first interview on Sunday to Error.FM's Bill Mahoney and posted a long comment Monday in response to Amanda Becker's September 1 LA Weekly story "Sunset Junction's Failed Mission."
McKinley, who posted under the user name 2Sides2EveryStory2, says Becker interviewed only one Sunset Junction supporter for the article but did not include any quotes from that conversation, as opposed to sourcing of various event detractors. He also shares this rather astonishing factoid:
[After no city fees for the first 27 years] Sunset Junction paid $23,000 in fees its 28th year; fees were not charged the 29th year, and four days before the 2010 event marking the 30th year, organizers were told they owed $263,000 before the street closure approval could be made. This is more than a quarter of a million dollars leveled at a non-profit who previously paid less in fees. It is ten times more than any other comparable citywide event. It is more than the Hollywood Bowl pays for a year of street closures and police and it's more than the Oscars pay for their street closures and security. *Public record backs this up.
McKinley's other objections to the Becker article include her claim that the non-profit paid out $12,000 to a lobbyist vs. $500 to needy kids and statements that the Silverlake Neighborhood Council reached out repeatedly to his organization. "When the Sunset Junction Neighborhood Alliance did make a presentation to the Silverlake Neighborhood Council with handouts regarding the organization's year-round work, the documents were tossed on the floor in a show of mockery," he writes.
Many more historical details are shared by McKinley in the hour-long Error.FM interview, including some very strange events in 2005 involving the office of Councilman Eric Garcetti that marked the beginning of a weirdly rancorous relationship with the city of LA.

Hearts managed to rescue a point last night against Hamilton in a six goal thriller at New Douglas Park.
Jamie Walker had put the Edinburgh side ahead in the 8th minute with a brilliant half-volley only to see the Accies draw equal before powering ahead after half-time.
The home side's come back started with a stunning free-kick from Ali Crawford. The 25 year old midfielder drifted the ball into the bottom corner of Jack Hamilton's net from 20 yards. The strike was a touch of class in what was a mostly scrappy first half.
Rakish Bingham extended the Accies lead with a calm finish just moments into the second-half after a smooth passing move sent the striker through on goal. Bingham then got his brace in the 68th minute, beating the Hearts keeper with a shot fired into the bottom corner.
Hearts however seemed to perk up after going 3-1 down and began to make an impression on the game.
When Dan Seaborne gave away a penalty in the 73rd minute with a clumsy tackle on Cowie, Walker stepped up to confidently knock the ball in off the left upright for his second of the game. With that the momentum started to shift to the Edinburgh side.
Once again this season though it fell to Callum Paterson to save Robbie Nielson's side as the full back grabbed his 7th goal of the season to draw the sides level in the dying minutes of the game.
Paterson's late equaliser means that Hearts cling on to their 4th place spot in the league, 3 points behind Rangers. Hamilton meanwhile – who could have moved up to 6th place with a win – are in 10th place, only 1 point off bottom.

Now that ICAST 2008 has come and gone, it's time to highlight just what went on in Las Vegas. The Best of Show gives you an idea of what to look out for in the coming months at your favorite tackle shops.
Now that ICAST 2008 has come and gone, it's time to highlight just what went on in Las Vegas. The Best of Show gives you an idea of what to look out for in the coming months at your favorite tackle shops.
Up for grabs is the second installment of the Classic Expo, from Greenville, S.C. We take a look at the Abu Garcia Skeet Reese REVO, and boats from Champion, Ranger, BassCat, and Triton. Bassaholics was also at the show, with their new designs….and tons more!
To say this years Classic was the SuperBowl of the fishing industry is an understatement. Fans from all over the country came to look, cheer, and spend at the 2008 Bassmaster Classic Expo. See what made one of the best consumer fishing shows of the year. We took so many pictures, we had to break this one up into 2 parts!! Yikes!
Sick of the typical fishing videos, the boys at Bass Akwards assembled some of the best in the biz, tied on some swimbaits, and headed to California. What they came back with was filmed and released in a DVD titled Big Bait Posse. The 40+ minute video is decked out with a punk rock soundtrack to help wake up the house.
What started as a passion, ended up turning into a business for Bassaholics owner Dan Norman. Based out of California, home to some of the biggest bass in the country, Bassaholics produces lifestyle apparel for hardcore anglers and swimbait lovers.
It's that time of the year that every angler dreams of. New gear, crappy gifts (until now), and more egg nog with those inlaws. What's hot for this 2007 holiday season?? We answer that, and help your relatives shop for you as well. We even have video!
Following the success of the deeper diving V-Crank, the new Wake has a lot to live up to. Can the bass overlook this 2 piece, clacking and wide wobbling wakebait from River2Sea??
Located in Palatine, Illinois, Angler's International Resources celebrated their grand opening this past weekend (October 13th and 14th, 2007), and TackleReviewer was there to provide full coverage.
Judging by the name you may be be tempted to eat it, don't, leave that for the bass. This tight wobbling shallow crankbait from Daiwa comes out swinging. You can't let its small size fool you either, it walks the walk.
Berkley is always pushing new technologies, from Gulp!, to Alive!, and now with Fluorocarbon line. For many anglers this change can be like going from a Civic, to a Corvette. Let's see why…

Car Accident Facts
According to DriverKnowledge.com, there are about 6 million car accidents every year in the United States, with 90 people dying in car accidents each day. As a result of those 6 million car accidents, there are an estimated 3 million injuries, with a staggering 2 million of those injured victims suffering permanent injuries. Even though seat belt use decreases the risk of death by 45 percent, one in seven people do not buckle up when then drive or are a passenger in a vehicle. Despite the level of education regarding impaired driving, alcohol remains a factor in 40 percent of all car accidents.
Excessive speed is responsible for about 30 percent of all auto accidents, and reckless driving is responsible for about 33 percent of all auto accidents. While experts believe distracted driving is a major factor in auto accidents, distraction is more difficult to prove, as few drivers want to admit they were talking on a phone, texting, eating, turning around to see what the children were doing in the back seat or simply not paying attention. Despite this, it is estimated that distracted driving is a factor in at least one in every five auto accidents, and that at least nine people are killed in auto accidents each day as a direct result of distracted driving.
Where Car Accidents Happen Most Often in Denver
While any road in Denver—or any other city in Colorado—can potentially be dangerous, findlaw.com found the following Denver roads and intersections to be the most dangerous in the city:
- I-25 between Santa Fe and I-70—It is estimated that more than 250,000 cars travel this stretch of highway every day.
- University Blvd. and Hampden Road—Although this intersection technically lies in Englewood, it is close enough to Denver to make the list. An increasing volume of traffic can render this area a "bottleneck," during certain times of the day.
- Monaco Parkway and Hampden Avenue—This intersection is a busy one, with the I-25 exit causing congestion which spills over to these streets.
- Colorado Blvd. and Alameda/I-25—With a ton of businesses in this vicinity, this is a major traffic area—which always increases the risk of auto accidents.
- University Blvd. and 1st Avenue—Heavy traffic during rush hours as well as throughout the day may this an extremely accident-prone area.
- Colorado Blvd. and 17th Avenue—Major traffic in this area makes getting to the Denver Zoo a challenge.
- Colorado Blvd. and 6th Avenue—Tons of traffic in this area as a thoroughfare for commuters.
- Colorado Blvd. and Mexico Avenue—Drivers coming from I-25 as well as surrounding businesses produce major traffic headaches.
According to a Denver Post article, traffic deaths in the state of Colorado reached the highest numbers in nearly a decade in 2017, with 634 people dying in traffic accidents. Experts believe the increase in traffic accident fatalities is the result of more and more people on the roadways, due to a better economy. Travel has increased, with people taking longer trips, and going out more often on weekends.
How is Negligence Proven in a Car Accident?
Negligence means a driver acted in a manner which disregarded his or her duty to drive in a safe manner, and that negligence resulted in an accident and subsequent injuries. Negligence does not involve intentional acts by the defendant, simply that the driver failed to follow their duty of care to ensure the safety of others. Under the law, all drivers owe other drivers the duty to drive safely, obeying all traffic laws.
To prove negligence, it must be shown that the defendant breached his or her duty of care (i.e., by exceeding the speed limit or running a stop sign), that this breach of duty of care was responsible for the plaintiff's injuries, and that there were damages associated with those injuries. The argument from the defendant will be that he or she did not breach the duty of care, which is just one of the reasons it is so important to have a police report following a car accident in Denver. Aside from failure to obey traffic laws, drivers are required to maintain a good degree of vigilance while driving, which means not driving while distracted. Drivers must also maintain control of their vehicle and must use the equipment on the vehicle properly.
Injured in a rear-end collision?
Injured in a side-impact collision?
Injured in a head-on collision?
Injured in a collision caused by excessive speed?
What Are the Types of Car Accidents?
The five most common types of car accidents include rear-end collisions, head-on collisions, side-impact or "t-bone" collisions, single car accidents and rollovers. Rear-end collisions happen frequently, and while they do not usually cause the same level of injury severity as other types of car accidents, they can result in serious neck and back injuries. Rear-end car accidents usually occur when cars are following too closely, or when distractions are involved. The driver of the car in the rear is usually considered at-fault in a rear-end collision. Side-impact collisions are also known as "t-bone" or broadside collisions occur when the front of one vehicle crashes into the side of another. Side impact collisions usually occur at intersections and can cause severe injuries to the passengers and driver in the t-boned car.
Rollovers often occur when a vehicle makes a sharp turn at a high speed. SUVs are more prone to rollover accidents than other vehicles because they are taller and have a higher center of gravity. When the front of one vehicle strikes the front of another, the results can be traumatic, or even fatal, particularly at high speeds. In fact, head-on collisions are the type of auto accidents most likely to result in fatalities. A single car accident occurs when a vehicle strikes a fixed object, such as a pole, a fire hydrant, a tree or a wall. In some cases, a single car accident can involve innocent bystanders, and often results in property damage as well as injury.
What Are Common Car Accident Injuries?
While there are many injuries which can result from a car accident, some of the most common injuries include:
- Whiplash is the name for tendon, ligament and muscle injuries which occur in the neck area following a car accident, particularly a rear-end car accident. Whiplash is an extremely painful condition.
- Cuts, scrapes and bruises are common following a car accident, and while not the most serious of injuries, infections and other complications can set in.
- Traumatic brain injuries can occur following a car accident and can result in immediate injury as well as long-term complications.
- Broken ribs and other broken bones are also common car accident injuries, particularly in side-impact car accidents.
- Internal bleeding and organ damage can be particularly dangerous if not treated quickly following a car accident.
- Back injuries, including herniated discs, or more serious spinal cord injuries can result from car accidents, particularly side-impact and head-on accidents.
- Knee trauma is common among car accident victims, when knees strike the dashboard during the crash. Braces, crutches or surgery to rebuild the knee may be necessary. Knee injuries are not only painful, they can cause significant difficult in walking.
- Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder can occur following a car accident, bringing mental and emotional issues associated with the accident. Even tasks which were once routine, may become extremely difficult, if not impossible.
What Role Does Insurance Play Following a Car Accident?
Having car insurance is, in most states, mandatory; however, many of us are truly not fully cognizant of the role insurance plays following a Denver car accident. Liability insurance is the part of your auto insurance which protects authorized drivers against any claim made against them which might arise when negligence caused the accident. As an example, if another driver makes a claim against your insurance for $40,000, and you are insured up to $75,000, then you would not be responsible for any payments. If the numbers were reversed, you could end up owing a significant amount of money.
Something few people know about auto insurance is that if you are in an accident, and you file a claim for $175,000, but the person you are filing the claim against has only $100,000 worth of coverage, the insurance company is not required to even respond to your claim because it exceeds the driver's coverage. This brings up the question of uninsured and underinsured drivers. If you have uninsured/underinsured coverage on your own insurance, and you are hit by a driver who has no insurance or has very low limits, you will make a claim against your own insurance company under your uninsured/underinsured coverage. Auto insurance plays a crucial role in your ability to obtain the money you need to pay for damages to your vehicle and medical expenses for your injuries. It is always a good idea to speak to a car accident attorney Denver in order to explore your options.
What Are Steps to Take Following a Car Accident?
Following a car accident in Denver, there are certain steps to remember to ensure the process after the accident goes smoothly, and that you receive a fair settlement if the accident was the result of negligence. These steps include:
- Never leave the scene of the accident;
- Make sure all drivers and passengers receive necessary medical treatments;
- Contact the police—and wait for them to arrive so you will have a police report;
- Exchange contact information with the other driver, including insurance information, drivers' license numbers and license plate numbers;
- Never admit guilt at the scene, even to the point of saying "I'm sorry," to the other driver as this could be construed as an admission of guilt;
- If there were witnesses to the accident, get their names and contact information;
- Take photographs of the scene of the accident if you are physically able;
- Let your insurance company known about the accident, giving them only the basic facts of the accident;
- Keep careful track of all your medical treatments, including ER treatment, doctor visits, rehabilitative therapies and even prescription medications related to your injuries;
- Keep a detailed journal of every single detail related to the car accident;
- Exercise caution on social media when talking about the car accident;
- Be wary of early settlement offers; and
- Hire an experienced Colorado car accident attorney as quickly as possible.
