With issues of immigration policy very much at the forefront of the upcoming elections, this annual conference will offer policy and legal analysis on key immigration topics facing the country and the incoming administration and Congress.
Georgetown University Law Center, Washington, D.C.
The UK vote to exit the European Union has given new momentum to euroskeptic, anti-immigration movements elsewhere. Experts discuss the political and policy lessons that can be learned from Brexit and applied to debates in Europe and North America, including how to address public anxiety over immigration and identity, while managing migration in a globalized economy.
The educational needs of immigrant students in primary and secondary schools pose a growing challenge for policymakers and educators. Speakers will discuss supplementary funding to support the educational needs of migrant-background students, and will provide an overview of the mechanics of school funding for such children in Canada, France, Germany, and United States, examined in an upcoming report.
An MPI Europe event focused on the Canadian Express Entry system—the rationale for its introduction, its building blocks, and initial outcomes—and how it may provide lessons for improving the management of skilled migration in Europe.
An expert discussion with Swedish and U.S. government officials on global and national responses to rising displacement, innovations in managing migration processes, and attempts to address the dysfunctional aspects of international migration.
MPI analysts explore how the migration politics and policies of the UK government influenced the decision to hold the "Brexit" referendum, how public attitudes towards immigration might influence the result, and how the outcome might impact migration policy in the United Kingdom and European Union more broadly.
An online video chat where MPI experts Michael Fix, Jeanne Batalova, and Sarah Hooker discuss MPI's profile of the DACA population and reflect on the policy's success.
An online web chat with MPI's Doris Meissner and Muzaffar Chishti examining the U.S. Senate & House bills for Immigration Reform in 2013.
This conference provides an assessment of what we have learned about the relationship between migration and development in the past decade—including the gains made through six years of the Global Forum on Migration and Development (GFMD)—and identifies key areas that are ripe for action.
Discussion with William Lacy Swing, Director General of the International Organization for Migration; Sam Worthington, President & CEO of InterAction; and MPI's Kathleen Newland.
A panel discussion for the release of the Regional Migration Study Group's final report with Co-Chairs Carlos Gutierrez, former U.S. Secretary of Commerce, and Eduardo Stein, former Vice President and Foreign Minister of Guatemala, and joined by James R. Jones, Former U.S. Ambassador to Mexico and former member of the U.S. House of Representatives from Oklahoma; CIDAC Chairman Luis Rubio; and MPI's Demetrios G. Papademetriou and Doris Meissner.

Boehner Pledges 5% House Budget Cut as a Start on Deficit
Incoming U.S. House Speaker John Boehner, saying reduced government spending begins at home, promised to seek a 5 percent cut in the chamber's legislative budget as one of the first steps when Republicans take control next year.
Republicans, who captured the House from Democrats in the November election with a net gain of 63 seats, campaigned on a pledge to decrease government spending to 2008 levels. That would require Congress to find $100 billion in cuts next year.
"We should start with ourselves," Boehner, 61, said in an interview taped for CBS's "60 Minutes" program that airs Dec. 12. "How about we start with cutting Congress?"
The Ohio Republican said he planned to "cut my leadership budget 5 percent" and "cut all the leadership budgets by 5 percent." He said, "I am going to cut every committee's budget by 5 percent and every member is going to see a 5 percent reduction in their allowance."
This would save the taxpayers $25 million to $30 million, he said. "We have to start somewhere," Boehner said when asked how such a relatively small amount would make a difference in an annual federal deficit that totaled about $1.3 trillion this year.
Boehner, who will take office Jan. 5 when the new Congress convenes, said the House will debate a measure to cut spending every week for the first three months of 2011.
"We don't need 2,000-page bills," he said. "We don't need thousand-page bills. How about one page?"

Reviewed By Michelle G (Bumpass, VA) Reviewed for a 2006 Chevy Trailblazer —5/16/2008 12:27 PM
I bought these for my 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer. The night that my husband put them on (in a garage)it was pouring down rain. I have always had problems with mud and dirt splashing on the sides of my truck; we live off a dirt road. Anyway, when we were driving home in the rain, my husband was in his truck behind me and he said the water was just flying off them. No mud or dirt down the sides of my truck either. The contoured fit looks really good and it was a perfect fit. They seem really well made so, I expect they will hold up for quite a long time.

Deal Breaker
|Track down and kill Kwennoir in Sawmill.
This one is a bit tricky and could take you quite a few tries to achieve as you are unable to set of any alarms off. So go around the level sneaking and taking opt shots at enemies, there are several alarm systems, about 4 before the bomb and there is one AI next to each one somewhere. Make sure to sneak and take them out first. When coming across the hostage leave him there for the time being as when you untie him he runs to the window and sets all the alarms off. Once your in the building with the bomb you'll locate Kwennoir downstairs next to it. From the stairs you could lob in a few grenades or use the grenade launcher on your gun to fire into the corner room where the bomb is a well placed shot should kill him.

Estimating the specific gravity of a few drops of urine has always been a difficult problem. This difficulty arises more particularly during ureteral catheterization, when only a few drops of urine can be obtained. By the method described here, the specific gravity of a few drops of urine from each kidney can be determined. It will be found applicable in estimating the specific gravity of small samples of voided urine.
This method for the determination of the specific gravity of urine is made possible by the utilization of a non-water-soluble mixture. We use for this purpose a mixture of a high specific gravity chemical (carbon tetrachloride), and a low one (xylene). It can be prepared quickly and cheaply from materials ordinarily at hand in the laboratory.
Hammerschlag1 has adapted this principle to determine the specific gravity of blood. But he has used a mixture of chloroform and benzine.

After consulting the reviews here I decided to go with this wax from the Body Shop and so glad I did. It has a very good texture, washed cleanly from hands, wonderful fragrance, easy to apply to hair and only use a small amount, and it brushed out easily.

I have fine hair in a boy-cut style and love this wax. I like playing around with hair products for my short hair and currently have about 5 or 6 on my sink, but I keep coming back to this one. While I still have various amounts of my American Crew and Garnier left, I am about to crack open a new tub of the Body Shop beeswax.
Just the smallest bit rubbed between my palms gives my hair texture and shine. The shine is probably the best part -- so, so shiny! Really causes a great reflection off highlights. Smells very nice, comes in a handy palm-sized plastic tub and the 50ml will last about 3-4 months of daily use on short hair. As others have warned, just use a little at first or things go from great to greasy very quickly. Anyway, I love this. It's pretty cheap at �5 a tub and often cheaper with Body shop discounts.

I would not normally have purchased this, but I had a voucher for The Body Shop and since having my hair cut into a pixie a few months ago have been on the lookout for good styling products.
This wax is very thick in consistency and quite oily, you only need a tiny amount otherwise it has a tendency to make my fine hair look a little greasy. I apply it once I've blow dried my hair just to add some shine, although I often have to use a separate product to give my hair any hold.
UPDATE: had my curly, fine hair cut into a pixie again and found that this is just so greasy on my hair, if not washed every day. I also found myself getting scalp acne it was so oily!

This is one of my favourite styling products. I have medium length, baby-fine hair, and an extremely sensitive scalp, but this doesn't irritate it at all. I use just a tiny bit of the wax throughout my damp hair and blow it dry - it leaves my hair feeling soft and shiny and not greasy. It has a creamy texture and seems more like a paste than a wax - like solid coconut oil.
The scent isn't noticeable on my hair, and is hard to describe: like tea, a bit if honey, and something tropical, but it isn't floral or perfumey, so it's fine for scent-free workplaces and men can use it too. The container is travel-friendly - it's just big enough to hold the product, so you don't have a giant container with a tiny bit of wax inside and there is an interior cap to seal in the contents in case it gets packed around in hot weather and melts. (I just got it before Christmas and it's January in Canada, so I have no idea how it actually responds in hot weather, but it is very creamy for a wax). This wax is well worth trying, especially if you like minimal ingredients and have a sensitive scalp.

This stuff is absolutely divine! I recently got a shaggy shoulder length bob and this product is a perfect match for my new 'do. It is really easy to work with, it's not greasy and it's not too tacky. I paid $8. for 2oz, which I imagine will last a long time. I also love that it comes in a TSA approved size. The scent is heavenly too! This is a holy grail for me!!

Wow, wow, wow!!! THIS is what I've been looking for!!! I recently got a choppy bob, and nothing was helping me get the look I want. Tried Crew Fiber, Redken Paste, Fudge, Kenra Clear Paste, Aquage Gelade ...all had at least one nice quality, but none was the total package. THIS IS! A tiny bit warmed in the hands, and your hair gets instantly smoothed (bye-bye baby hairs!), has a nice natural looking shine (not oily looking), and the white flakes I had from the prior day's product buildup are now invisible!!! If you're looking for the right wax...GET THIS! I don't have a Body Shop by me, so I ordered from amazon..and I will continue to do so!

This is the best wax I have ever used! I have wavy/curly hair in a funky boy cut with blonde foils. This product gives me a fancastic 'Just rolled out of bed with style' look. It's easy: just wake up, put a tiny bit (and by 'tiny' I mean tiny!) in your palm, and smoosh through your hair. That's it! 10 seconds and you're done :-) I have tried many, many, many other hair products: this is the best.

Yes, I'd buy again, but I'm not thrilled about it: that's mainly because it's ok, and pretty affordable. I've used texturising balms/things that are way, way better, but cost 5 times as much. This stuff smells heavenly, is non-greasy if you use a little, and does give texture. However, if I apply enough to get all the texture I like, it becomes gloopy, sticky and oily. I guess this is because we're used to lots of silicone and other chemicals in products, and this doesn't have them, I suppose. Still. Could be much better. Only buy if you have really short, like boy-short, hair. On longer hair, you'll end up heavy and greasy.

Salmonella poisoning in dog linked to peanut-butter recall
Officials tie first pet case to nationwide outbreak
February 12, 2009

For The VIN News Service

A 3-year-old shepherd mix hospitalized with bloody diarrhea and vomiting in Oregon last month tested positive for
, and state health authorities connect the illness to tainted peanut butter in dog biscuits.
The dog's illness is the first confirmed animal case of
linked to contaminated peanut butter or peanut paste that originated from a Peanut Corporation of America plant in Blakely, Ga.
The problem is more widespread among humans. On Tuesday, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported 600 cases in 44 states. Nine people have died.
The contamination was the subject of a congressional hearing Wednesday, where victims' family members vented anger concerning the possibility that the peanut company knowingly put tainted product into the marketplace. Peanut Corporation of America President Stewart Parnell and Blakely plant manager Sammy Lightsey were called to testify, but refused to speak, citing their Fifth-Amendment rights against self-incrimination.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) Steven Sundlof, DVM, director of the Center for Food Safety, also answered questions before lawmakers, defending his agency's response to the outbreak. He stated that the outbreak has prompted FDA to tighten its food safety policies. Inspectors now will routinely collect samples for bacterial testing whenever they visit a facility. Such analysis previously was conducted only when a problem was suspected.
Among nearly 2,000 peanut-butter products recalled are a handful of pet treats, including Happy Tails Multi-Flavored Dog Biscuits, the source of the Oregon dog's infection. The biscuits were recalled on Jan. 23, but the dog ate the contaminated treats before then.
Owner Dennis Patterson told the VIN News Service Wednesday that his dog had been healthy and active. But on Jan. 22, he took it to see Dr. Paul Gore at Oakland Veterinary Hospital for loss of appetite and fatigue.
Gore prescribed antibiotics, but the dog's condition worsened. On Jan. 26, the dog was hospitalized and put on IV fluids.
At first, Gore didn't consider peanut butter to be a culprit. "Initially, (the owners) thought the dog had gotten into salmon in the trash," he said. "So we kind of went with that."
Then Gore received an e-mail from the Oregon state veterinarian's office with an updated product recall list. That got him thinking about Salmonella.
He found out that the sick dog, along with four other dogs in the same household, regularly consumed Happy Tails treats.
The other dogs were not ill, but that didn't surprise Gore. Dogs, he said, "are used to eating contaminated, dirty things," and some can handle that without getting sick. "Even with people,
tends to strike the young ones or those sick with diseases," he added. "An adult, healthy dog tends to get less of a problem."
Why the dog was susceptible to infection is unclear. Patterson said it's possible that it was given peanut-butter biscuits from the "multi-flavored" pack while the other dogs ate other flavors.
Although Gore knew the dog had eaten suspect biscuits, confirming the source of the illness took some sleuthing. When he sent in the first stool sample for culturing, the dog had been on antibiotics for a few days, and the results came back negative. Moreover, Gore noted, Salmonella can be tough to culture because infected animals don't shed the bacteria daily.
State Public Health Veterinarian Dr. Emilio DeBess recommended that the owners test for
in all of their dogs. The owner managed to collect a sample from one dog, which came back positive.
The state also tested the dog biscuits, which Patterson said he bought at a local Albertson's grocery on Jan. 12. Those, too, were positive.
After three nights in the hospital, Patterson took his dog home to convalesce. Wednesday, he said that three-and-a-half weeks of illness have taken a toll. "She is down to a bag of bones," he said, estimating that the dog, once 55 pounds, is down to about 40 pounds.
With the dog's appetite returning, Patterson is considering abandoning manufactured pet food for homemade.
"If we've learned nothing else, we've learned the manufacturers aren't as careful as they should be," Patterson said. "Like everything else, we have to take personal responsibility for the safety of our kids and our pets."
Meanwhile, Gore said he's seen a few other dogs recently with intestinal problems but because the patients responded well to treatment, the owners declined to have lab work done to try to identify the source of the problem.
He credited State Public Health Veterinarian DeBess for keeping Oregon practitioners up-to-date on the peanut-butter recall, and recommended that his colleagues follow the recall list and sign up to receive e-mail updates.
The Oregon Veterinary Medical Association maintains a list of recalled pet products at
FDA's list of recalled products and other information about the peanut-butter contamination is available at http://www.fda.gov/oc/opacom/hottopics/salmonellatyph.html.

VERGENNES — While Vergennes nears a deal with Encore Redevelopment for a 150-kilowatt solar array near its city sewer plant, the Burlington firm has told the Ferrisburgh selectboard that further research showed its proposal for a 500-kw array on town-owned land was not feasible.
In Vergennes, aldermen and Encore could sign a deal as soon as this week for an array that could save the city at least $4,000 a year off its power bill for the next two decades.

MIDDLEBURY — It was almost six years ago that Jackie Rose became top dog at the Addison County Humane Society (ACHS).
She will leave that position next week with a great sense of accomplishment, having boosted programs and spearheaded a more than $1 million campaign that tripled the size of the ACHS's Homeward Bound Animal Welfare Center at 236 Boardman St.
"Without a doubt, this has been the most rewarding professional experience I have ever had," Rose said on Wednesday as she showed the ropes to her successor, Jessica Danyow.
Memorial Day was enacted to honor Union soldiers of the Civil War. It was set on May 30, near the day of reunification. The day was expanded after World War I to include all American casualties of any war or military action.
VERGENNES — A late-season match-up between the Mount Abraham and Vergennes union high school baseball teams always brings intrigue. A match-up with postseason standing implications is that much sweeter.
As rain clouds threatened on Thursday in Vergennes, VUHS pitcher Devin Hayes powered through seven innings of two-hit ball while striking out 10 in a 4-0 Commodore victory. With the win, the Commodores improved to 8-6 and solidified their hold on sixth place in Division III, while the Eagles dropped to 5-7.

VERGENNES — The Vergennes Union High School softball team continued its march toward a high seed in Division I on Thursday, when the Commodores rode the two-hit pitching of junior Taylor Paquette past visiting Mount Abraham, 8-2.
VUHS improved to 10-4 and can clinch the No. 3 seed with wins in its final two games. The Commodores were set to visit Spaulding (9-4 as of Friday) on Saturday and will visit Middlebury (3-9 as of Friday) on Tuesday.
ADDISON COUNTY — Hiking Vermont's hillsides is a great way to enjoy a warm spring day, but the Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department and Audubon Vermont recommend you check to see if the area you're planning to hike or climb is open. Several cliff areas — including four in Addison County — are currently closed to protect nesting peregrine falcons.
ADDISON COUNTY — This year's United Way of Addison County Community Celebration event will be held on Thursday, May 30, from 5:30-7:30 p.m. at the Vergennes Opera House. The main focus of this free, family-friendly event is to honor and thank those people who help their friends and neighbors achieve better lives by working with the United Way to make its campaign a success.

Do the evolutionary origins of our moral beliefs undermine moral knowledge?

According to some recent arguments, (Joyce in The evolution of morality, MIT Press, Cambridge, 2006; Ruse and Wilson in Conceptual issues in evolutionary biology, MIT Press, Cambridge, 1995; Street in Philos Studies 127: 109–166, 2006) if our moral beliefs are products of natural selection, then we do not have moral knowledge. In defense of this inference, its proponents argue that natural selection is a process that fails to track moral facts. In this paper, I argue that our having moral knowledge is consistent with, (a) the hypothesis that our moral beliefs are products of natural selection, and (b) the claim (or a certain interpretation of the claim) that natural selection fails to track moral facts. I also argue that natural selection is a process that could track moral facts, albeit imperfectly. I do not argue that we do have moral knowledge. I argue instead that Darwinian considerations provide us with no reason to doubt that we do, and with some reasons to suppose that we might.

How do I turn -2/9 into a decimal? It can be a repeating decimal it just has to be a decimal and I'm not sure how to make it a decimal.
Another way to achieve the answer:
When the numerator is smaller than the denominator, it is better to multiply with a number so that it becomes bigger than the denominator. Here I multiply the top with 10.
-2/9 = (1/10) (-20/9) = -1/10 (2.222....)= -0.22222.....

Circular cooling fins of diameter D = 1 mm and length L= 30 mm, made of copper (k = 380 W/m∙K), are used to enhance heat transfer from a surface that is maintained at temperature T∞ = 132°C. Each rod has one end attached to this surface (x = 0), while the opposite end (x = L) is joined to a second surface, which is maintained at Ts2 =0°C. The air flowing between the surfaces and the rods is also at T∞ = 0°C, and the convection coefficient is h = 100 W/m2∙K.
(a) Express the function θ(x) = T(x) - T∞ along a fin, and calculate the temperature at x = L/2.
(b) Determine the rate of heal transferred from the hot surface through each fin and the fin effectiveness. Is the use of fins justified? Why?
(c) What is the total rate of heat transfer from a 10-cm by 10-cm section of the wall, which has 625uniformly distributed fins? Assume the same convection coefficient for the fin and for the unfinned wall surface.

"Fredericton and New Brunswick" Top 5 Page for this destination Fredericton by Bwana_Brown
Fredericton Travel Guide: 224 reviews and 329 photos
Fredericton is the capital of the province of New Brunswick, Canada and is located in the Maritime Provinces (NB, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island) on the Atlantic Coast. It is interesting to note that, when all the contributors and photographers to the National Geographic Magazine were polled 3 years ago for their estimation of the top 50 "must see" things/places to experience based on their World travels, Canada ended up with two "winners". One was to see the Rocky Mountains and the second was to visit the Maritime Provinces to experience the relaxed pace of life, combined with rustic scenery of your choice. A combination of seashores, forests and pastoral farm lands provides a wide variety of visual experiences. This, along with the friendly nature of the inhabitants and the reasonable cost of amenities makes this location a great place in which to spend some time! Photo of downtown Fredericton (Sept. 2003) looking across the Saint John River from the north side of the city.
Check out my New Brunswick Nature Travelogues from Summer, 2002 with photos of coastal hikes and mountain climbing in New Brunswick!
- Pros:Small, relaxing and safe with lots to see and do!
- Cons:Only warm 5 months of the year (mid-May to mid-Oct.)
- In a nutshell:If you want to "wind down" - this is your spot!

Nice page Glenn. I guess it would have been wonderful growing up in this outdoors enviroment. Perhaps not in winter. Did you shovel the snow off your driveway as a youngster?
Good luck with your move! I just stopped in for a quick look at what you were leaving behind!
Interesting that this quiet and unassuming place has the world's longest and highest of anything (covered bridge and tides). And the last totally undeveloped section of Atlantic coastline north of Florida.
As usual another excellent coverage of sights and local info of another interesting place to see- esp that its your home town!Autumn colours are a fav of mine, as are farm houses and those lovely big houses....burning them down such a shame!
Great information like all your websites!
Wow, Fredicton seems sooo lovely! I wanna come visit your part of the world :)
Glenn, it looks like you live in a real Canadian gem. Interesting info and fabulous photos. I didn't know about the world's highest tides. Well done ... :-)
Lovely pages - always favor the Off Beaten Path and Local Customes. Will return again! Ciao, Carol
Thank you for your kind words about my Quito page. I can't believe I've been somewhere you haven't. I admired your hometown page. It's so hard to remember what's interesting about one's hometown (I've added sport travel tips to mine today).
the home pages are always full of delights

Fabulous. I had some chicken already cooked and shredded, so I used that and reduced the cooking time a bit here. Next time I might try adding some Mexican oregano to the filling, but it was delicious as written.
Love this recipe! So easy and delish!! Makes pleny of leftovers. They were great frozen and reaheated too!!
Very tasty! I was amazed at how easy it was to make too. I'll be making this again!
Loved it. I made six and they were too spicy for my kids so my and my wife ate all six... so good!

Apple Issues QuickTime 7.1.6 Security Update
From MacObserver
Apple released a security update for QuickTime 7.1.6 on Tuesday that addressed two potential Web-based security vulnerabilities. Both involve visiting Web sites that execute maliciously-crafted Java applets.
The security update blocks a QuickTime for Java threat that could potentially allow an attacker to install or manipulate objects outside of the bounds of the allocated memory heap and run arbitrary code. It also blocks a second QuickTime for Java threat that could allow an attacker to view sensitive information stored in computer memory.

Apple Hides Account Info in DRM Music
From Ars Technica
With great power comes great responsibility, and apparently with DRM-free music comes files embedded with identifying information. Such is the situation with Apple's new DRM-free music: songs sold without DRM still have a user's full name and account e-mail embedded in them, which means that dropping that new DRM-free song on your favorite P2P network could come back to bite you.

Pupils Suffer in Schools Computer Row
From New Zealand Herald
Microsoft Office programs have been ordered to be removed from about 25,000 Apple Macintosh computers in schools.
The Ministry of Education did not renew its deal for the programs, meaning that students using the Apple computers will not have access to common programs such as Excel and Word unless the school buys the software independently.
It is thought to affect around 30 per cent of all schools nationwide.

YML Moved to *Thursday*
You know how, when you get married, your wife makes plans, tells you about them and then you *immediately* forget those plans?
I'm having one of those days. :(
We are out riding today and Lesa says, "So what time do you want to go to the airport on Wednesday?" Well, I knew she was going to the iStockPhoto iStockalypse so I figured that's what she meant.
I said, "I can drop you off any time."
"What do you mean, "I can drop you off"? You're going too!"
Wha....Of course my small caveman brain had *completely* forgotten about it....
So - Wednesday's show will be postponed 24 hours to Thursday at the same time. Unfortunately, it will also be a pre-taped broadcast. Our apologies for the inconvenience.

Where are the Third Party MagSafe Accessories?
From Macworld
Why the dearth of third-party MagSafe products? Because the MagSafe connector is a patented technology and, according to a Kensington representative, Apple has thus far not licensed the use of that technology to other vendors.

McCartney Missing from iTunes -- for Now
From PlayList
Why is the ex-Wings frontman appearing on other online music services but not iTunes? Apple isn't saying. But if you consider another recent iTunes-related announcement, it isn't very difficult to figure out why.
When are EMI's DRM-free offerings set to appear on iTunes? Sometime during May—the same timeframe as McCartney's catalog. And, incidentally, Paul McCartney's music is published by EMI.
It's not a terrific leap of logic to assume that both offerings—DRM-free songs and Paul McCartney tracks—will make their iTunes debut simultaneously. As far as musical mysteries are concerned, this one is a lot easier to figure out than who the walrus was.

Woman injured in rollover crashJanuary 09,2013Woman injured in rollover crash
BENNINGTON A local woman was injured in a one-vehicle rollover crash on Fairview Street near the Silk Road intersection around 11 a.m. on Tuesday, according to Lt. Lloyd Dean of the Bennington Police Department.
Karen Halvorsen, 55, of Bennington, was driving west on Fairview Street toward North Bennington when she lost control of her 1998 Nissan Altima while attempting to negotiate a curve in the road, Dean said.
The car began to fishtail and its right front corner struck an earthen embankment, causing it to flip onto its roof in the westbound lane of Fairview Street.
When police arrived, Halvorsen was out of the car and members of the Bennington Rescue Squad were providing care. Halvorsen was taken to the Southwestern Vermont Medical Center, where she was treated for minor injuries and released.
Police were also assisted by the Bennington Rural Fire Department.

I'm trying to pick a laptop for working from home, where I'll be using remote desktop to connect to my machine at work. How important is it to have a good graphics card on the client machine (the laptop)?
It isn't all that important because your machine will be acting as a 'dumb terminal' because all of the rendering is preformed on the server you will be connecting to. Will you be using the Windows remote desktop or another solution such as VNC? I do believe that Windows Remote Desktop may preform some of the calculations on the clients machine for rendering window movements and such but nothing too serious.
The experience will be slow, but it can be mitigated by picking options that minimize what must be exchanged over the 'net. Having a hot graphics card won't help this.

The Standard & Poor's 500 fell six points, or 0.4 percent, to end the day at 1,606.
The Nasdaq composite edged up a point to close at 3,403.
The S&P 500 recorded its first monthly loss since October, but still had its best first half of a year since 1998.
BlackBerry maker Research In Motion plunged 28 percent after posting a loss despite releasing make-or-break smartphones this year.
The yield on the 10-year Treasury note rose to 2.49 percent from 2.47 percent.
Rising and falling stocks were evenly matched on the New York Stock Exchange where volume was heavier than usual at 4.4 billion shares.

hehe, another one! sweet.. lots of good quality smurf killing in this one! lol.
that animal channel was LAME, and that must be why it got exploded!! lol!! the 'expensive cannon' was pretty cool... it was very well drawn.
the IMP meeting scene was quite funny... all those ppl just poping up! like Arnie! hahah... "blah blah blah, lie lie lie". lol! vote for arnie dude!! good to see they were finally earning some money, i also hate smurfs, and it was good to see Grumpy gettin some! lol! "i hate being on fire!" omg, funny. and the SPUDS... damn, just added to the funnynes of it... lol...
but i was disappointed that there was no fight scene between them and the IMP :( , o well... lol, atleast that gay angel got shot!!
so overall, MORE great work! keep it up man.
it was a 2 parter, spud and imp go fight in the very next episode.Around this time, i had smurfs in ALL my movies, but after a while people grew tired of it.After episode 6, rarely any smurfs :(
allriiiight!Its nr.4
I have nothing to say except the same thing that i said last time.Great!
Okay, thanks.
He didn't know what he was talking about...
Your movies rule..they really do..Still some people don't realise that the whole point is that the animations are crappy and the sound is F*ct up...it's just so damn funny...My friends keep telling me that these movies are retarded but they know nothing...You guys are my Gawds!! To Recite H-Hog:Rawk On!
Well, when seeing these scores i can only say one thing:THe people either completely love it or completely hate it..Anyway, with episode 11 I give me drawing style a big boost, so i hope it`ll make the ungratefull people a little..err..less ungratefull..I don`t mind if people give me bad reviews tough, as long as the have GOOD arguments, instead of just "you suck".And maybe i should interact more with my fans..Maybe i`ll send you a copy of episode 11 as far as it is now to ask if you think it`s improved..Yeah, why not...ANd Thanks for your review.
