To adventurous Western writers and journalists in the late 19th century, the opening of Japan in 1868 was an opportunity too good to pass up. Japan represented a lost civilization, and by the end of the century, readers in Victorian England and Teddy Roosevelt's America had become fascinated with this ancient and highly civilized land that the modern, industrializing West knew next to nothing about.
Korea, by contrast, was considered a backwater. But geography had placed the Korean people between China and Czarist Russia on their northern borders, and the growing power and ambition of Japan just across the sea. When another power in the Pacific, the United States, invaded Kangwha Island in 1871, it marked the beginning of a long period of domination by and struggle against direct and indirect colonization by foreign powers, the results of which would keep Korea divided 135 years later.
On hand to record the struggles were a wide array of Western, Korean, and Japanese correspondents. Some, like famed author Jack London, came to Korea because that's where the action was. London, however, arrived too late to cover the main battles of the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-05, and finding only frustration he ended up entertaining Seoul's foreign residents with a reading of his most famous work, "Call of the Wild."
Other correspondents, especially those in Korea during the Korean War (1950-1953), saw plenty of action. Correspondents like Keyes Beech of the Chicago Daily News, Bill Shinn of The Associated Press and Maggie Higgins of the New York Herald Tribune put their lives on the line to report a war few in the West were interested in, while the AP's Max Desfor won a Pulitzer Prize in 1951 for his haunting photography of panicked refugees in Pyongyang.
Japanese reporters, notably Korea expert and Tokyo Shimbun correspondent Yuji Yamamoto, provide a glimpse of modern Japan-Korea relations, but the bulk of "Korea Witness" deals with the Korean War and the U.S.-backed military dictatorship in South Korea that followed it.
Korean correspondents like K.C. Hwang, Shim Jae Hoon and Paul Shin, who all worked for foreign media, incurred the wrath of a succession of military dictatorships and often reported at great personal risk. It was these men, and a few Western correspondents, who managed to tell the outside world about the uprising against the dictatorship in Gwangju in May 1980, one that was brutally suppressed by the South Korean army a week later, killing over 200 and injuring nearly 2,400.
The majority of the reports in "Korea Witness" are of the tragedy and violence that marks most of 20th-century Korean history. But there is also admiration among the correspondents for the courage, resilience and hard work of ordinary Koreans, who, by the time of the 1988 Seoul Olympics, were starting to shake off their troubled past.
Former New York Times Tokyo bureau chief Henry Scott-Stokes notes just how much Seoul has changed in the two decades since the 1980s, with women in growing positions of political power and an economy that was vibrant enough to recover from the Asian financial crisis of 1997.
If South Korea is no longer the mystery as it was in London's day, North Korea remains the Hermit Kingdom. Foreign correspondents from the West and Japan have rarely managed to gain much access, but the late President Kim Il Sung granted a 3 1/2-hour interview to 20 foreign journalists just three months before he died.
Other reports from North Korea, though limited, offer glimpses into what life was like just after the Cold War. That they still, more than 13 years later, represent the only detailed, independent accounts the world has about North Korea is a tragedy.
The correspondents who contributed to "Korea Witness," and those whose dispatches are included, constitute a Who's Who of the 20th century's most famous Asian foreign correspondents. The book is aptly titled, as many of the witnesses to the dramatic events of Korea's postwar history are still around, living in South Korea, Japan, or the United States.
Students of both Asian studies and journalism will be enthralled by the excellent storytelling contained within "Korean Witness." However, in their desire to let the writers express themselves to the fullest, the editors admit they did little rewriting. While readers with a good grasp of 20th-century East Asian history will not mind this, a bit more in the way of background introductions or followup would have given the book the wider audience it so richly deserves.

Governor Schwarzenegger's decision to kill Stanley Williams is a shameful failure of leadership and a collapse of moral courage. It is politics-as-usual by one who claims to be above such cowardly power-mongering. How are we made safer by this mindless, brutal act?

Schwarzenegger denies clemency for Williams
Mark Martin, San Francisco Chronicle Staff Writer
Monday, December 12, 2005
13:05 PST SACRAMENTO -- Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger rejected Stanley Tookie Williams' plea for clemency Monday, setting the stage for a midnight execution of the four-time murderer who became an anti-gang crusader from Death Row.
After mulling the decision for weeks and meeting with prosecutors and Williams' lawyers last Thursday, Schwarzenegger said in a written statement that "clemency cases are always difficult and this one is no exception.
"After studying the evidence, searching the history, listening to the arguments and wrestling with the profound consequences, I could find no justification for granting clemency. The facts do not justify overturning the jury's verdict or the decisions of the courts in this case."
Barring any last minute, longshot legal appeal, Williams will be given a lethal injection at 12:01 a.m. Tuesday. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals also denied a petition for a stay of execution today.
Convicted in 1981 for four shotgun, execution-style murders during two robberies, Williams was the co-founder of the Crips street gang. In the last decade, however, Williams has published eight children's books warning against gangs and violence and has attempted to broker truces between gangs from his San Quentin State Prison cell.
Williams' clemency bid has garnered worldwide attention, and the governor's office has reported a major uptick and phone calls and letters on the issue in recent weeks.

Death Penalty Focus's statement is below:
Contact: Lance Lindsey, Executive Director (415.243.0143)
Governor Schwarzenegger's decision to kill Stanley Williams is a shameful failure of leadership and a collapse of moral courage. It is politics-as-usual by one who claims to be above such cowardly power-mongering. How are we made safer by this mindless, brutal act?
Killing Stanley Williams is a slap in the face to decent society, serving only to promote a cycle of violence that endangers everyone.
The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops recently called on our political leaders to break that cycle of violence and "abandon the illusion that we can protect life by taking life. The use of the death penalty," they said, "ought to be abandoned not only for what it does to those who are executed, but what it does to all society." Rather than making this crucial commitment, Governor Schwarzenegger instead washed his hands, Pilate-like, and ordered the extermination of a man who had become a force for good in our society and an example of hope for our misdirected youth.
With the majority of the world's nations abandoning state killing, he who would be our leader chooses rank politics over justice, poisoning the hopes of our youth with the very needle that takes Stanley Tookie Williams' life.
The people of California are increasingly concerned about the arbitrary application of the death penalty in our state. 73% support the suspension of executions while the faults in the death system are examined. Therefore, we strongly urge the immediate passage of the "California Moratorium on Executions Act" (AB 1121) which would temporarily suspend executions in California until the Legislature considers the findings of the California Commission on the Fair Administration of Justice. While this bill will not be considered in time to save the life of Stanley Williams, it will shine a light on the serious questions surrounding the application of the death penalty in California.
With the specter of frequent and routine executions facing us, it is time for an accounting from political leaders who arrogate to themselves the right to take life.
Having shown contempt for the life of Stanley Tookie Williams, Governor Schwarzenegger must not be allowed to kill the hope for true justice in our society, as we seek to embrace life and human dignity rather than the politics of death.
All are encouraged to demonstrate TODAY, DECEMBER 12, 2005

The Red Sox head to Detroit for Game 3 of the ALCS with a 1-1 split against the Tigers.
The Sox will face Tigers starting pitcher Justin Verlander while in Detroit, and he holds a 1-0 record with a 0.00 ERA through 15 innings this postseason. The Red Sox have their hitting strategy in place, though, and it's not much different than the usual.
Hear Will Middlebrooks, Dustin Pedroia and Johnny Gomes talk about Tuesday's matchup in the above video.

Chairman Dennis Bone, President Tom Bracken and the entire Chamber leadership, on
behalf of the 13 Member House delegation, let me note that we are deeply grateful for your
extraordinary leadership, vision and proven commitment to building a better and more
prosperous New Jersey.
Prosperity, as we know, doesn't just happen. Business leaders make it happen. You create
the ways and means to feed, clothe, connect, heal, house, and entertain our families.
For a century now, the New Jersey Chamber has been at the forefront of actually creating
the jobs politicians love to brag about. You take the prudent risks and plan and execute. And you always make the time to tangibly assist charities of every stripe.
While politicians don't always get it right, your voice in Trenton and Washington has
made a profound difference on budgets and policy.
You proudly tout the wizard of Menlo Park, Thomas Edison as a NJ Chamber founder, a
fact that is emblematic of New Jersey's global leadership in cutting edge technology and
It's been said that Albert Einstein once noted that the greatest force in the universe is
compound interest.
When it's working for you, ride the good times. When it's not, it can be catastrophic for
individuals and ruinous to nations.
The United States today--and much of the world--faces unprecedented challenges in
trying to grow the economy and help businesses create jobs while confronting mountains of
unsustainable debt that has the potential of undermining it all.
We've got to ask the hard questions:
Is our tax code not only fair but pro-growth?
Are regulations undermining business?
Has the stimulus worked?
Where are the jobs?
Has the Federal Reserve gotten it right? Gone too far?
Are we at or near the tipping point on debt?
Last night AP reported some good news--companies seem poised to expand and hire in
2011. This morning, however, it was reported that new claims for unemployment unexpectedly jumped by 51,000. The stock market has risen sharply, hopefully the harbinger of better days ahead.
At the end of last year the White House and Congress came together in a bipartisan manner
to extend the Bush tax cuts, at least for a while, averting what would have been the largest tax
increase ever which could have smothered any chance of recovery.
But yesterday, the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) ominously forecasted that the federal budget deficit will grow to nearly $1.5 trillion in 2011, which comes on top of record deficits of $1.3 trillion in 2010 and $1.4 trillion in 2009.
Shockingly, CBO said that at current spending rates, the federal debt will climb every
year from 2011 to 2021 reaching an unimaginable $25.1 trillion in 2021.
(In 1911--the year the NJ Chamber was founded, the federal debt was $2.7 billion-- today it's $14 trillion en route to over $25 trillion in a mere 10 years.)
Two days ago, the President delivered his State of the Union message to Congress and
the American people. It was, like most major presidential speeches, skillfully written and delivered.
In part, out of respect for our recovering distinguished colleague, Gabby Giffords, there
was an enhanced sense of bipartisan goodwill in the House Chamber--but it should be noted,
that much of what we do year-round even when we vehemently disagree on issues, is done with respect for each other regardless of party or ideology.
On spending cuts and debt, the President proposed a freeze on annual domestic spending
at current highly elevated levels. Yet in the last two years domestic spending has skyrocketed.
What does a freeze really mean? Maybe it is a start. The spending cut proposal came late in the
speech suggesting at least to me a lack of urgency, and perhaps an under-appreciation of the risk our massive debt poses to our economic future. The President said he has ordered a review of regulations that stifle business growth and investment, and promised to work with Congress on medical malpractice--let's hope so.
In his speech, the President spoke eloquently against the dictator in Tunisia and said the
United States of America stands with the people of Tunisia and I applaud him for that, but was
silent on the dictator in Beijing.
According to the U.S. Department of State, China's dictatorship is among the most
egregious mass violators of human rights in the world--and even continues to incarcerate Nobel Peace prize winner, Liu Xiaobo. The people of China desperately need words and deeds of
solidarity from the leader of the free world. And it makes good business sense as well. The
systematic repression of the Chinese people is directly related to disrespect for intellectual
property rights, copyright infringement and a lack of business transparency. And I find it
perplexing that the only group the President singled out for "exploiting," people in the State of
the Union was, not China dictatorship but the U.S. health insurance industry.
In the coming weeks Congress and the Administration will need wisdom and courage to
make the hard choices as Governor Chris Christie and the legislature has done--and is doing--in Trenton.
I believe we are at or near the tipping point. We must act wisely so our kids and
grandchildren don't pay our debts in perpetuity. As serious proposals to prudently cut spending and prioritize remaining streams of funding get introduced, debated, and voted on, we need the unique insights of the Chamber to help us get it right.

Intel X3100 graphics intermittent fault?
This is an annoying thing where at any time at all the screen goes white - or nearly white, with no graphics, text or cursor.
Machine is an ACER 4315 laptop with Celeron 540 and 2G RAM, feels a bit warm to the touch, but temps reported are around 45 to 50 degrees max.
Workaround is to restart X (CTRL-backspace) which usually works in that the screen can come back as X restarts. More reliable and less traumatic is to use CTRL-ALT-F1 to get a terminal, followed by CTRL-ALT-F7 to restore the X screen.
Wrestling with the Intel data does not (so far) reveal any obvious reason why this would happen, unless it is just getting hot and flaky?
Any suggestions? Anybody else seen this?
It does seem to happen more and more often with passing time, so it would probably be good to find and fix this.... <grin>
Best regards, and thanks in advance, Ben
OK - we are getting an association with the laptop lid being moved up or down. Might be a bad contact in or near the hinges?
Anybody seen that on one of these Acers?
Closing the lid all the way (or using the appropriate function key) to invoke Hibernate in (eg) Ubuntu 8.04.3 LTS then letting it settle down before hitting the keyboard to restore the session often clears the fault.
The Problem is consistent regardless of OS.
This laptop has Ubu 804, Xubu 904, PCLOS 2009, Zenwalk and the Ubu 910 Beta all on the hard drive, accessible via GRUB. Same problem and similar solutions with all of them. It is also used to test varii Live CDs and DVDs from time to time, same problem/workarounds apply. <sigh>
Any ideas folks? Will prise it all open one day, after we have another machine up and running, probably on Ubu/Xubu 910 once it goes final and we have all the home folder transferred and running cleanly.
All the best, Ben
Finally fixed it!
No-brainer really, pulled it apart, found the cable bundle leading from base to screen, and fiddled with it. Been good ever since.
Found someone with the same problem on YouTube here
All I needed to do was pop off the cover that goes between keyboard and screen pivots, and there by the left pivot was the cable bundle - I just rearranged it a bit, and all was OK.
Marking this as SOLVED now!
All the best, Ben

Washington Mutual Raises Online Savings Account Rates
Because so many of you bank with Washington Mutual, I wanted to give you a heads up about its most recent promotion. Today the bank raised its online savings rate to four percent, which is higher than most interest rates I've seen lately. Most of you who use WaMu are sticking with the bank despite its troubles, so why not take this opportunity to start that savings account you've been putting off? As long as your account is less than $100,000, your funds are insured by the FDIC.

All New Cars Will Be Required to Have Back Up Cameras
I'm one of those people who get into a friends new car and go giddy over the technology. "Oh look you have one of those cameras that helps you back up, I don't, I just turn my neck." Yes, I'm that person. Sadly, I don't foresee a new car any time soon in my future. I'll just keep driving mine until it falls apart. She's a good car. However, with that said I'm looking forward to the day when I get a new car because it will definitely have the back up camera because it will be a requirement.
Most vehicles built after May 2018 will require the back up camera
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA):
Today's final rule requires all vehicles under 10,000 pounds, including buses and trucks, manufactured on or after May 1, 2018, to come equipped with rear visibility technology that expands the field of view to enable the driver of a motor vehicle to detect areas behind the vehicle to reduce death and injury resulting from backover incidents. The field of view must include a 10-foot by 20-foot zone directly behind the vehicle. The system must also meet other requirements including image size, linger time, response time, durability, and deactivation.
This is an important safety measure in a vehicles. This allows the driver to see behind them especially in those blind zones. Yes, it will decrease wrecks due to backing up into another car. Better yet, it could save the life of a child who moved behind a vehicle.
In fact, thousands of children die each year due to back over accidents.
According to KidsandCars.org:
In the U.S. at least fifty children are being backed over by vehicles EVERY week. Forty-eight (48) are treated in hospital emergency rooms and at least two (2) children are fatally injured every WEEK.
Visit their website, and you can see the sweet faces of children who were killed in backover accidents.
So if you buy a new car that is a 2018 model or above you will have a backup camera. Any cars before that, I'm guessing it will be an option, but you can bet the car manufacturers will probably start phasing those cameras in all 2016 models.

MOUNTAIN VIEW, CALIFORNIA--Biochemists would love to divine the birthplaces of amino acids, the basic components of proteins. Some probably formed on Earth billions of years ago as lightning and ultraviolet light from the sun laced the primitive atmosphere. Other amino acids may have come from space, but only if they withstood the fiery plunge to the planet's surface. Now, new research suggests that some amino acids may have survived that trip aboard two seemingly fragile hosts: comets and dust.
Planetary scientists have known that some meteorites are hardy enough to shield organic compounds from burning up. For instance, fragments of the carbon-rich Murchison meteorite, which fell onto Australia in 1969, contain extraterrestrial amino acids that stayed cool beneath a red-hot outer rind. But researchers thought that the brute force of hitting the atmosphere would destroy amino acids in comets, many of which slam into Earth at tremendous speeds and explode in the air.
However, lab experiments now show that the high pressures of impact may stabilize some amino acids and prevent heat from breaking their chemical bonds. A team led by geophysicist Jen Blank of the University of California, Berkeley, encased watery solutions of five amino acids inside steel disks and fired steel projectiles at them with a 12-meter-long gun. The impacts, at speeds up to 1.5 kilometers per second, pummeled the amino acids with up to 200,000 times Earth's atmospheric pressure and temperatures as high as 600°C. Between 40% and 70% of the amino acids survived the assault, Blank reported recently at the First Astrobiology Science Conference here. "This is the closest anyone has achieved in the lab to recreating the conditions of a cometary impact," she notes.
Another team reported that amino acids may hitch rides to Earth on micrometeorites, which add some 40,000 tons of extraterrestrial dust to the planet each year. Geochemists Daniel Glavin and Jeffrey Bada of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in La Jolla, California, demonstrated that amino acids can vaporize off dust grains as they heat up in the atmosphere. The compounds would then recondense in the cold air behind the grains, creating tiny tails of solid amino acids that drift to the surface. Because interplanetary dust was rampant in the young solar system, he says, "This may have been a good way to get some of the prebiotic molecules onto the early Earth."
The experiments suggest that extraterrestrial delivery of amino acids to Earth is "plausible," says biochemist David Deamer of the University of California, Santa Cruz. "There's just no doubt that some of the amino acids survive the impacts," Deamer says. "It's become surprisingly convincing."

We have recently become addicted to a series of videos from TED -- or, Technology, Entertainment and Design -- an annual conference where passionate people descend on Monterrey, California to listen to other passionate people, each of whom are given 18 minutes to give the talk of their lives. The idea is that the best ideas will spread, by sheer virtue of the combined influence of all of the mavens and connectors in the room.
The notion of the idea virus also happens to be at the core of Seth Godin's expertise. Godin gave this prescient talk at TED in February 2003 and declared to the world's leading thinkers: "No matter what we do for a living, we're in the fashion business!"
What he is getting at is that we in the fashion business know that it is the most remarkable ideas gain attention -- and every six months we are on the lookout for the freshest visions of how people want to dress and live today. Sometimes this may mean borrowing ideas from a different era and making them relevant for now. Nicholas Ghesquiere, a fashion innovator whose ideas influence both his high-falutin peers and the mass market alike, is a perfect example of this.
Godin also says marketing today is "not about interrupting people with full page ads," but this is a lesson that the fashion industry still needs to learn. Just flip through any fashion magazine and witness our worship of the full page glossy ad, even at a time when a recommendation from Susie Bubble, photograph from The Sartorialist, or endorsement from The Manolo can have much more weight at no cost at all -- and simply because you are creating remarkable products.
While we suspect there will always be a role for advertising in the fashion business, smart fashion brands are also focusing on delivering a remarkable product that will get fashion people talking.

I was mentioning in various posts of mine that PTI supporters will put a dent on PTI support by abusing and showing a bad behavior. I argued many times that if they say there are here to bring a change then they should show that they are different. This should be evident from the educated support of PTI on social media and they should provide logical and factual comments rather than defending the bad things of their leadership like Siddiqul Farooq , Fouzia Wahab, Faisal Abidi, Pervaiz Rasheed and MQM cronies do. Better not to reply rather than just wrinting some real Bull S H I T. The best accountability comes from within the organization, remember this, otherwise it wont take long for people to get disappointed from this new ray of hope.
Now, PTI has officially accepted the same thing on their website and have asked the supporters to show moral values and discipline while commenting on social media and writing emails on different forums. Here it is
I also paste it here from the website:
PTI ABUSE ALERT !!! by Sadia Agha
By Umar (WebMgmt) | 1470 Views | | Women wing, National
Dear Fellow Insafians
We, the workers and supporters are a part of this great movement, this Tehreek, the future of Pakistan Inshallah.
The 'Winds of Change' have begun and now it is our responsibility to carry it forward to great heights but that is only possible if we keep our culture, tehzeeb, morals and values at the highest level.
As you are all aware of the fact that we, at PTI, are regularly accused of using bad and abusive language on social media and other forums, we are known to retaliate negatively if anyone of us, especially our Chairman is attacked...remember each individual is entitled to their own opinion and we MUST respect that at all costs.
Lets carry forward our Tehreek's HOPE with passion, respect and responsibility, lets be humble and polite and win over our enemies with dignity..our work should speak for us! Don't let the world raise fingers at us, they are watching us intently to put us down - lets be role models today and always.
Lets be different from the other political parties, we should be civilized when we address each other and not malign and insult our opponents. We have to be trendsetters in the new siyasat that we want to bring into our beloved homeland.
I'd like to end with a part of Allama Iqbal's nazm:
So lets win this war with humility, pride, dignity and passion!!
I sincerely hope I have your support and do forward this message.
With duaas...

Addressing Socially Responsible Investments through Alternative Risk Transfer Solutions at International Level
The aim of the present paper is to connect sustainability with financial solutions designed to improve development in poor regions or developing countries. First part of the paper presents the concept of socially responsible investments (SRI) and their evolution in the last decades, emphasizing the social, environmental and governance objectives addressed by SRI. In order to find a possible solution for redirecting private financial capital and resources towards sustainability benefits, the second part of the paper introduces the concept of alternative risk transfer (ART) solutions, by presenting their appearance, evolution and classification. Third part of the paper reveals the social and environmental role that ART solutions could play by exposing three very recent representative examples of innovative financial products that have also achieved social and environmental goals in developing countries. Finally, fourth and fifth parts of the paper focus on current state in Romania, potential further research and conclusions.

RBS analyst Sam Berridge joined the bank straight from a post in the Ivory Coast. In Africa, the geologist got malaria three times, was held up at gun point and evacuated due to civil war.
He would see groups of analysts fly down from London, cast a disparaging eye over the African mining operations and jet back to their lives of luxury. It was then he decided there was an easier way to make a crust, and it proved a good call to make.
While stockbroking firms explore ways to trim team numbers, resources analysts have been left to explore for the next big thing. The China boom has investors worldwide tuned into the Australian mining sector – placing resources analysts in high demand.
RBS analyst Sam Berridge has been ranked the top metals and mining stock-picker in this year's StarMine Analyst Awards. Yet he steers well clear of local market behemoths
StarMine says Berridge's best call this year was a long-held buy on
Another gold and mineral sands-focused mid-cap analyst, RBC Capital Markets' Geoff Breen, the best earnings estimator for metals and mining, says the role of the analyst has changed dramatically over the years. Not long ago, Australian miners had all their assets in Australia. Now he has to travel to Brazil to run his eyes over Minara Resources, Laos for PanAust and so on.
"It's interesting how well Australians do out of Australia," Breen says.
The former mining engineer says key to being a top-rating analyst is having a capable associate to help maintain the model and a feel for market psychology.
While it's all well and good working out a miners' earnings forecasts and production numbers, he says it is important to be able to read the market's views on the stock and triggers that could drive share price performance. It's helpful that today's analysts spend more time talking directly to portfolio managers and buy-side analysts.
Breen says more clients call him directly, as well as going through the sales traders.
The keen golfer also says business has become less formal, with more meetings outside of the regimented office environment.
While Breen and Berridge scout the small and mid cap space for the next big then, Goldman Sachs' Neil Goodwill has had success following the likes of BHP and Rio Tinto.
Goodwill, who has been with the firm for 16-years, covers BHP, Rio Tinto, coal, iron ore and uranium. StarMine ranked Goodwill the third best metals and mining stockpicker - behind Berridge and Jamieson - and fifth best overall.
Goodwill's best calls this year included a "sell" on uranium miner Energy Resources of Australia, and a long-held "buy" on the soon-to-be acquired Macarthur Coal.
On ERA he says: "there were inconsistencies in the ore reserve position of the company and the production profile and very high risks in terms of their future projects", while he liked Macarthur purely on its valuation.
Goodwill's best pick at the moment is BHP.
"From a risk/reward perspective, clearly there will be stocks in the right commodities that will do better than BHP, but I think BHP can handle not only what our forecasts are expecting but it can outperform many other scenarios," he says.

To My Girls as Teens,
I'm probably the last person you want to take advice from on being a teen. After all, I am your mom and so old. But old though I may be, I was once a teen. I have lived through it. I have come out the other side. And I have a few words of wisdom for you.
After all, it can be overwhelming to be a teenager, can't it? Just a couple of years ago you were playing with dolls and reading books and magazines about animals. You wanted to spend all of your time at home, and the pictures on your walls were of your family and perhaps some nursery rhymes from when you were younger.
Since then, you have put the dolls to the side. The books you read now, when you have time to read something non-school related, are about relationships and growing up and entering into new worlds. Your magazines no longer tell cute stories. Instead they teach you how to protect yourself against rape and how to appear sexy enough for the boys to like you. Every single issue has stories about losing weight and hiding problem areas and cultivating the perfect abs. I know this because the stories are about the same exact things they were about twenty years ago–only the fashion and technology have changed.
You might wonder where this leaves you. All the media you consume tells you that you are now becoming an adult. But sometimes you really don't feel like it, do you? (That feeling, by the way might never go away. I'm 36 and I still find myself confused by being an adult.)
But why I am writing is to talk to you about those ideas of being a woman.
If our culture teaches us anything, it's that being a woman means being sexy and smart and accomplished and nurturing and educated and inquisitive, and any number of other things. Most of these things are great. The one that concerns me is the sexiness.
There's nothing wrong with a person being sexy once they are of an age where they fully understand and accept what that means. But the problem is that people who want to make money off of you make it seem like all of us should be sexy — even those who aren't ready to accept what that means.
And the thing is that this is a really effective way for people to make money off of you. Teenagers want to be liked. They want to be noticed by the opposite sex. And they want to grow up. And marketers are right there to tell you that the best way to do all of these things is to make yourself sexy. To use your body to sell your sexiness.
But let's look at that for a moment.
You are a person. A whole person. You have strengths and weaknesses. You have aspects of your life you are proud of. You have a brain that hopefully you like to share with the world. You are kind. You have big dreams and big goals. You have multiple interests. There are some things you really dislike. You have groups of friends and a family. Perhaps you are involved in sports, or perhaps you are an artist or a writer or an aspiring fashion designer. Maybe you have dreams of being a biologist or a doctor or a stay-at-home mom. Maybe you really aren't sure yet what you want to be, and maybe that simultaneously excites and terrifies you.
These are really great, cool things that make you you… They make you into such an interesting and rich character. If you show them to the world, they will draw people to you. The unabashed sharing of your passions will give others permission to live their own passions. You are really cool.
So of all of those things that make you interesting and unique, which are the ones you want to emphasize in the way you dress? Which are the ones that you want to put on the billboard that is your body? Do you want to emphasize the sexiness, or would you prefer to advertise your sense of style or your artistry or your intelligence or your class?
Please don't get me wrong. No one has a right to treat you any way they choose based upon how you dress. No one has a right to expect things from you, and most especially, no one has a right to take from you. Regardless of whether you dress in turtle necks and long pants or you wear a string bikini year round, your body is your own and will always be your own and no one else's. I'm not implying you should dress in any way for any person ever.
What I'm asking you to consider is how you want to dress for yourself. How do you want to present yourself to the world? Sexuality is part of being human. But is it always the number one aspect of yourself that you want to portray? Is it the most important aspect? Is it really what makes you you? And if you find it's what draws others to you, I would gently caution you to consider whether those are the people you want to draw.
I wish you luck and laughter and peace and confidence during these years. They aren't easy. But they can be beautiful. For perhaps the first time in your life, you have the freedom to make some choices about who you want to be. Make those decisions with wisdom, with the future in mind, with your self respect in mind. You are an awesome person. Let the world see that.

Ongoing Projects / Planning Documents
Horizon Shores
This park will be approximately 45 acres once complete. It is designed around a water feature that serves as storm water retention for the surrounding development. The water feature is split into three distinct segments by two collector streets that cross it. The North and middle portions of the pond have been constructed. Access to the park is from Ridgewood Boulevard, 24th Avenue South, and 40th Street South as well as from neighborhood sidewalk connections provided in surrounding residential and commercial developments.
The master plan calls for a number of neighborhood amenities being constructed as funding becomes available but the restrooms and maintenance facility stand out as immediate needs.
MB Johnson Park
A master plan for MB Johnson Park was developed in 2008-2009 with updates in 2012 and again in 2015. Phase 1 improvements began in 2009 and included the demolition of the old shelter and play system, a combination park building/park shelter, improvements to parking, limited site lighting, and utilities installed at this remote location.
In 2012, a new play system and backstop were added to the site, which completed Phase 1 of the master plan. An updated plan was completed in 2012 in an effort to apply for a Legacy Grant from the State of Minnesota. Notification was received that $275,000 was awarded for a large picnic shelter. After environmental and archeological studies were complete, this shelter is currently under construction with an anticipated use in the summer of 2016. Future phases are outlined in the master plan and will be constructed as funding becomes available. Some examples of amenities planned for this area include a trail bridge , restored wetland, site furnishings, additional access points, park lighting, and improved signage. The remaining amenities in the Master Plan will continue to be submitted for funding through the Legacy Grant Program, Parks and Trails Grants, Greater Minnesota Parks and Trails funding, and any other grants that are available.
Southside Regional Park
Work on Southside Regional Park began in the summer of 2006 with general site grading and infrastructure improvements for utilities, electrical, water, sewer and roads. Work continued in 2007-2008 with construction of 11 soccer fields, 4 baseball fields, trails, park shelters and field irrigation. The spring of 2009 saw the start of construction for a concession/restroom building at the ball fields and a concession/restroom/office building at the soccer fields. The first games were played at this location in the Fall of 2009.
Future plans and phasing call for 4 additional standard soccer fields and upgrading two of the soccer fields to serve as championship fields. It was expected that a portion of the cost of the work would be offset by funding from the Minnesota Amateur Sports Commission along with a designation as the Northwest Regional Amateur Sports Facility. Plans were submitted and approved for the 2008 and 2010 Minnesota State bonding bills but later vetoed by the Governor. This project was an Agency 1 priority for the Amateur Sports Commission for the 2010 bonding bill, but again saw defeat with the Governor's office which recommended mainly asset preservation projects only during this budget crisis.
Phase 4 of this project is the neighborhood elements to the Master Plan which includes a large picnic shelter, parking lot lighting, additional trails, trees and landscaping, tennis courts, basketball courts, and a play system, along with a maintenance building, completing the trails and landscaping.
Also added at this location is a "Miracle Field" which is a rubberized ball field used for adaptive sports. This field was a project by the F-M Rotary. Learn more about the Miracle Field.

My First Day In School - Poem by Jay P Narain
More than half a century ago,
the Monsoon showers had just brought relief from the sweltering summer,
just when I was dreaming of playing soccer whole day outdoors,
My Dad decided that I have to attend an elementary school.
I was dragged a mile by my older brother to my new school,
It would be my favorite Durga Temple converted into a school,
My dreams of a class with benches and chairs just vanished,
As we were sitting on the floor in open partitioned classrooms of the school.
I thought I would get a nice colorful uniform to wear to school,
but it looked like that the dress code was a futuristic dream,
At least every class had a black board bigger than my slate,
the teacher had a duster whereas I had to wipe the chalk with my hand.
The fear of some burly kids and nostalgia of home made me sad and homesick,
I could not stop crying and asking my teacher to let me go home.
I still remember the teacher with big black cane,
every time I cried to go home, I got a whack on my palm with his cane,
I could not stop crying, he would not stop whacking,
till I was sent in a distant corner for breaking the class rule.
Kneeling down in the corner, I dreamt of Mom and home,
I found comfort in the memories of joyous Durga Puja days,
I wished the Goddess would come alive,
and pierce the hands of the teacher with her big spear.
Finally the Tiffin time heralded the temporary recess,
the teacher came down and helped me open my Tiffin can,
He asked me to eat while he wrote something on my slate,
He hoped that it would keep me interested in his school.
After I finished my food, he handed my slate,
He had drawn a picture of a big smiling cat with whiskers and big tail,
He asked me to draw the cat on the other side of the slate,
I was so happy drawing the circles and lines whole afternoon,
I forgot I had a rough first day in school.

A river flowing east into Antigonish Harbour.
The first white settler at the West River was Alexander
Fraser who had
emigrated from Scotland to Pictou, and who selected the spot for his farm
about 1795 after travelling and camping with the Indians. About 1805
John Smith, a native of Moidart, Scotland settled with his wife on the lower
part of the river, having travelled along the Gulf shore in a dugout canoe.
Between the years 1810 and 1820 a number of older settlers from
Antigonish Harbour and Williams Point removed to the West River to cut
timber for the overseas timber trade and remained to farm the rich intervale
lands. Nathan Pushee and Zephaniah Williams who had many descendants
were among these.
There was a school at the West River of Antigonish in
1827 and Edward
Williams was teaching there in 1848. New school-houses were built at
Middle West River and Upper West River about 1865. In 1905 the school
sections Lower Glen Road, Salt Springs and West River were consolidated
as West River section No. 47.
The population in 1956 was 90.


text: I am considering moving to D.C., and I would like to learn which neighborhoods to consider. One factor is food-friendliness, if you will - i.e., access to grocery stores, maybe farmers' markets, neighborhood restaurants, take-out or delivery places, etc. Of course, this is only one consideration, but it's an important one for me. I've been to D.C. for work a few times, but I'm not familiar enough to know the neighborhoods well. I am talking strictly about D.C., not the VA or MD suburbs. So how would you rank the various neighborhoods or areas? And why?

A new trailing sport from Trailing Rose

Very nice pictures their.I like the colors.
Yubiker taipei, Taiwan May 18, 2013
Thanks for your kind reply, the trailing coleus� sport is rarely found because it is not easy to get its seeds, unlike the seed-grown Rainbow series.
This new one was occasionally found as a young plant in my yard, I don�t know how it was propagated from the original Training Rose.
southgal May 18, 2013
Your welcome.I like the way they are spreaded out like that.

liver! star Mark Lester undertook a change of pace - and then some - with this uncomfortable, Bad Seed-like shocker. He plays Marcus, the preteen son of a recently-remarried, well-to-do writer, whose first wife (Marcus's mother) died a mysterious death. Marcus simultaneously resents his stepmother and feels erotically drawn to her; in desperation, he quickly and aggressively drives her to the point of a psychotic breakdown. He then quietly confesses his act of matricide to the stepmom and implores her to off her husband and abscond with the insurance monies.Overview from themoviedb.org

Westchester Herald: Sen. Stewart-Cousins Announces Legislation to Empower Law Enforcement Against Vehicle Thefts
On May 18th, Senator Andrea Stewart-Cousins (35th SD) announced passage of legislation (S1899A) to provide law enforcement with new tools to prosecute career car thieves. This bill, introduced by Deputy Majority Leader Jeff Klein (D-Bronx) makes it easier to bring felony auto theft charges against suspects previously convicted of a broader range of vehicle related crimes, assisting police and prosecutors in their efforts to break up auto theft rings.
Under current law, suspects may only be charged with felony auto theft if they have a prior conviction for auto theft but convictions for other prior vehicle related crimes do not apply...

"The simple and efficient way to get on the market!"
To me, the Lean Startup is about starting a business without having a complete product. I simply loved it even if for entrepreneurs like me, it's something hard to do. I always want it to be perfect but find out that I had problems in the past working too long on something that wasn't wanted.
Definitely cut corners and launch as soon as you can! Then, iterate often.
I listened to an interview on Mixergy and think it was also really interesting.
"Second-hand sold as high fashion"
First, why I bought the book – the author did a great job of promoting his book by using a word which is the most popular in modern business world. Leaders of all levels everywhere around the world know this word – LEAN. But everybody got used to "Lean execution", so my first reaction when I saw the title was – "wow, have I missed something, are there new scientific methods from Stanford I'm not aware of?" So, I bought it with high expectations of something new and then… Then there was complete disappointment. The author introduce new concept with new name selling it as a breakthrough in the science of management, but when you complete a chapter you ask yourself, so what's new there, why old practices are called differently from what I used to. First, "Minimum Viable Product" – the concept of early introduction of a product for testing a concept is not new, it's applicable for products with short development cycle only and very specific for few industries. So, where is breakthrough? Bigger disappointment was "Innovative Accounting" – yeah, you see another popular label – "Innovation". But when I finished I tried to recount what was it and again – second-hand is sold as high fashion. The author keeps saying – "old accounting methods are not applicable for startups because of uncertain environment" – yes, true – but then goes narrative description of what's been in business books for decades. And last – "Build-Measure-Learn"! What was a purpose of renaming "Plan-Do-Check-Act"?
So, in overall – it was waste of time, with only exception – now I know that I should ignore everything containing "The Lean Startup", "Minimum Viable Product" and "Innovative Accounting". And also – would you trust somebody whose only experience is mediocre social network startup with unclear business model? After Facebook IPO?
"Best start for startup thinking"
it was one of the best books i ever enjoyed. no other rich content to this day in the catagory.
"Highly recommended reading for any start up"
This book is a great overview of the Lean Startup theory of business development using validated learning techniques to "build, measure, learn". Iterating product features in short cycles, structured to prove or disprove measurable hypotheses; this is one of the books as the basis of the agile development theory. Very interesting read and very useful ideas for any type of business.
Ana L M. Hernandez
"what a great philosophy"
I am e-learning entrepreneur struggling to have more information and knowledge to start my business even though it's not a Technical startup this book has given me perspective and the tools for my lunch I love it
"Another Pivotal Book"
Like "The Four Hour Workweek" and "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" before it "The Lean Startup" has significantly changed how I regard my business design, both current and future. Possible the best return on investment I have seen in a while.
"lean startup - lean innovation - lean business"
Apparently, the 'lean startup' has a large following. I had never heard of the book or the concept, but lean inspired me ever since Jeff Liker's book about Toyota.
The Lean Startup in my opinion is a totally different approach, although it borrows the concept of waste. But how waste is avoided is a different route altogether.
First, it is 'lean' under a cloud of uncertainty. The more uncertain the future (of sth) is, the better this approach works. Basically, to avoid waste is to have a clear understanding of your key assumptions, and then testing these assumptions as fast and with as little effort as possible. And of course, with a good monitoring system to understand the results of what you tested. Topline growth is not. Cohort/group and split testing is.
The book is written as a guide to startups, but it is valid with anything innovative. And thus for any business that tries to innovate something, anything. Many organisations are dissatifsfied with their innovation efforts, and this book guides you to how to improve the process.
Well worth the read. The author is not really a narrator, though. He should have left this to a professional. Not bad, but not great either.
Photographer at large
"Great book for LEAN start ups - Very GOOD"
The MVP is a great concept...very well thought out and to the point.
The 2 Second LEAN is more direct and focused in my opinion...
Great book on LEAN start ups...if you are starting from scratch this is the book to read right after you read 2 Second Lean by Paul Akers. This is my second favorite LEAN book. Good job Eric.
"Software startups only"
A software guy talking about software startups. If you aren't involved in a tech startup please consider spending your money elsewhere. The synopsis of the book is him taking agile, scrum, and lean methodologies applying them to software startups.
"great book"
best book of my favorite things that I have been working on.
this is not a big way to get the latest news from around the world.

BCCI to Investigate IPL Fixing Claims
The Board of Control for Cricket in India said it will examine footage from a sting operation carried out by a television channel that implicates cricketers in illegal practices, including spot-fixing, an issue that threatens to tarnish the big-money Indian Premier League.
The footage, carried on India TV, includes an Indian cricketer apparently bowling a deliberate no-ball in a domestic match in return for cash, and others admitting that they get paid much more than their already lofty IPL auction prices might suggest.
"The BCCI will not tolerate any violation of regulations and any act of corruption," said BCCI Secretary Sanjay Jagdale in a statement.
"The complete footage of the 'sting operation' will be sought, and examined thoroughly," he added.
The footage doesn't prove that spot-fixing has stretched its oily tentacles into the IPL, but some of the cricketers caught on camera are involved in the league, including T.P. Sudhindra of the Deccan Chargers. He's hardly a first-choice player though, and has taken only one wicket in this year's tournament.
"India TV sting also revealed that spot-fixing is not only prevalent in IPL but First class matches are also fixed and beautiful ladies played an important role in match-fixing," India TV said on its website, without elaborating on the "important role" that these "beauties" played.
This isn't the first time that beautiful women have been linked to match-fixing allegations. Earlier this year, the U.K.'s Sunday Times carried an article by former News of the World journalist Mazher Mahmood that claimed India was at the heart of the problem of corruption in cricket, with a network of illegal bookmakers, and yes, even a Bollywood temptress trying to corrupt players.
India TV's report, which aired on Monday night, shows Sudhindra bowling a no-ball in a local T20 match in Indore, allegedly for 40,000 rupees ($740). There was no concrete evidence from the video that Sudhindra had agreed to do something similar in an IPL match. The player couldn't be reached for comment.
But the report did include a telephone conversation in which Kings XI Punjab player Shalabh Srivastava appears to demand one million rupees (roughly $18,500) to bowl a no-ball in an IPL match.
Srivastava has denied the allegations, claiming that the recording was doctored and that he has never been involved in spot-fixing.
"This is a false allegation and I will definitely file a case against them," Srivastava told news channel NDTV, adding: "They have video clippings of me in other conversations, but why is it that they don't have a video of me demanding money for spot fixing in IPL? Why is that only an audio clipping?"
Lalit Modi, the man who launched the IPL in 2008 but was later made an outcast, questioned the India TV report.
"Fixing is a big issue. There needs to be concrete evidence for the same. I did not see that on india tv. Did u see that?" he wrote on Twitter Monday night.
"Been busy due to root canal. But saw india Tv-all hype-no substance in there fixing claim. Best to ignore. What people will do for attention," he said in another tweet.
But he added that player payment in the IPL is an issue that needs to be addressed. India TV claims that Mohnish Mishra of Pune Warriors said he was getting 14.5 million rupees ($270,000) from Sahara, the owners of the Pune IPL franchise, even though rules state that, as an uncapped player, he shouldn't be paid more than three million rupees.
A spokesman for Pune Warriors couldn't be immediately reached for a comment.
