My dear Amal,
Having seen your wonderful crochet works on facebook, I'm here to tell you a heartfelt "HAPPY Valentine's Day!"
Honey, you are doing great on crocheting. Before you told me you were taking crocheting class, I had thought about it and asked my aunt to find a good class for me to attend . But I'm in hurry; how many things can I do in the same time? One by one... Seeing your works, my interest for doing this job even doubles! I really enjoy seeing them, it motivates me more and more.
Thanks for your very kind post to us; Behnam and me! For sure this great feeling of friendship is mutual between us. You have the heart of a sparrow, you are soooooo pure and kind. Thanks for being our friend.
Take care o yourself and your gentle fingers; don't make them too tired*

Cup of China
Kiira KORPI IN
Seems like Carolina Kostner is out of the GP series. Why, what happened?
despite that she resumed training not berfore july, so she will not be in form for the early competition. kostners first appearance should be the italian championships in december, afther that euros and worlds.
Zijun Li has just replaced Kostner at TEB. I assume she will also get the TBA at CoC.
Zijun won't be at CoC, though since she's already assigned to NHK along with TEB.
Oh yeah!
A little surprised that Zijun got the spot, since she wasn't in the top 5 of last year's SB. Was hoping that Mirai would get it, with this year's programs she might have a legit shot at the GPF
What's the strategy from the French Fed? Be nice to the Chinese so that they return the favors? Getting a softer field? They could care less about paying ticket holders who would rather see a stronger skater!!!!!
How in the heck did Li get that assignment?
"Randy [Starkman (1960-April 16, 2012)] lived by the same motto as the rest of us. The Olympics isnt every four years, its every single day. He just got it." --Canadian Olympic kayaker Adam van Koeverden
8 Czisny -- assumed passed due to injury, then
11 Nagasu -- couldn't do CoC, but could have done TEB two weeks later
14 Korpi -- assigned to CoC, with initial assignment at CoR the following week
16 Biryukova -- initial assignment NHK the following week
17 Korobeyikova -- already assigned to TEB
19 Shelepen -- initial assignment NHK the following week
The language of the GP Announcement said that they created groups of five: the only way that Li should have been considered is if 1. As soon as Korpi was chosen, Li moved into the group of five as the next one (24) on the list, and they aren't going by strict groups of five, perhaps in general or perhaps only among the Top 24, or 2. The Russian Fed and USFS passed on behalf of their skaters, and then they went to Group 2 of five, where the Top 24 skaters had to be picked first.
Li, like Biryukova and Shelpen, was already assigned to NHK, so it's not as if the ISU automatically passed on skaters who would have back-to-back assignments and had to travel from Europe to Asia or vice versa, and they allowed China to choose Korpi to do China->Russia, when Russia->France ->Finland would have been a more reasonable competition schedule.
"The team doesn't get automatic capacity because management is mad" -- Greg Smith, agile guy
Can we just accept they are chosing their susbtitutes as they please ignoring all their convoluted regulations?? It's better that way
Plus the feds have shown more than once they don't really care about the skater invited having another event the previous or following week.
Now will CHINA give their TBA spot to a chinese lady (Quiuying Zhu probably) or chose a foreign skater instead (hopefully Biryukova/Korobeynikova/Shelepen).
I can't understand why Chinese federation didn't give the TBA spot at CoC to Zijun.
Traveling from China to Paris and again flying back to Japan in two weeks is really tight and demanding schedule.
I hope Zijun get over this and make a successful debut at GPS.
Is it really that much further to travel to Japan than to Shanghai from Beijing where she trains?
Yay for Li Zijun having 2 assignments! Zhang Kexin also has two, right?

I can hear sounds that I did not hear before; for examples, in "007-Royal Casino" movie I heard crickets making noise in the background at one of night scenes that I did not hear before, or such subtle sounds as a deck of cards being dropped down on a table. I felt like I was actually there with the actors at the scenes. The overall atmosphere feels and hears more like in a real theatre than ever before! I think it was worth the money spent to have treated the living room with these sound panels. :)

Apple reportedly believes Chinese factories faster, more flexible than U.S. counterparts
According to The New York Times, not the cost of labor, not the cost of components, but rather the speed and flexibility with which Chinese factories can respond to iPhone and iPad manufacturing demands is reportedly the reason Apple prefers them over their U.S. counterparts.
One former executive described how the company relied upon a Chinese factory to revamp iPhone manufacturing just weeks before the device was due on shelves. Apple had redesigned the iPhone's screen at the last minute, forcing an assembly line overhaul. New screens began arriving at the plant near midnight.
A foreman immediately roused 8,000 workers inside the company's dormitories, according to the executive. Each employee was given a biscuit and a cup of tea, guided to a workstation and within half an hour started a 12-hour shift fitting glass screens into beveled frames. Within 96 hours, the plant was producing over 10,000 iPhones a day.
This isn't unique to Apple, of course, but Apple's popularity and profile, fueled by their exceptional supply-chain management, gets their name in the headline.
For a complete run down of the realities of modern manufacturing, and examples including Steve Jobs' response to U.S. President Obama, give the full article a read.
Source: New York Times
There are 44 comments. Add yours.
Of course they are faster and more flexible when they live in the factory and are forced to work otherwise they are fired or killed.
Killed? Really? Ever been to China and seen a factory?
The problem with this analysis is that the speed and flexibility is not separable from the cost of labor. In the example here, part of the extraordinary turnaround was because there were employees living in dormitories, who could be awakened at midnight without warning and taken to a 12 hour shift. At Foxconn, these laborers get that room and board (in a room shared with up to 8 people), and 31 cents an hour. Even if the US (or Canadian) government were to allow such conditions, you would have to pay quite a bit more than 31 cents/hour for workers to accept them.
This is not to take away anything from the skill and extraordinary management capabilities of Chinese companies. This time lapse video shows a hotel built from the ground up in 6 days. Regardless of the cost of labor, the precise logistics of this operation are astounding. I am not sure how many US/Canadian firms are capable of this symphony of coordination at any price.
"I am not sure how many US/Canadian firms are capable of this symphony of coordination at any price."
None that I know of. You are not going to get any American or Canadian worker living in the sorts of conditions that the Foxconn factory workers live and work for the wages they work for. I would actually think that's a good thing.
You missed the point. The hotel construction was remarkable for the coordination of materials and stages, e.g. the moment the framing was complete, the plumbing materials and crews were ready to begin laying pipes, the moment pipes were done, the drywall was ready for placement, and so on. That sort of management requires a set of skills far above and beyond just cheap labor.
Cool Vid....Where is the Vid of it falling down 6 month later?
Could also explain the antenna issue and battery drain issues. When a process is so on the edge the unexpected test cases emerge and its too late.
Huh? They didn't specify which phone this was.
Also, the antenna issues were well known in Apple before the phones release. The engineers warned Jobs and Ive that it might be an issue but their concerns fell on deaf ears.
Thats why iphones are cheap.
They think that because they are. That's why the REST OF THE WORLD manufactures there too. How is this just am Apple issue? Sensationalist BS. Apple gets page hits, I guess. Hope your advertisers are happier than your readers.
I agree with Apple 100%. Looking past Foxcons problem (not Apple's problem), there is no denying the labor force in the Asian markets. That drive and resource is simply not here or anywhere else. In the US, the government doesn't help the matter with interference, nor does the damning demands of unions.
Damning demands of unions? Wow. Well, uh, unions got you that overtime pay, those vacation/sick pay, and those weekends off so be glad you're not the one working for $.35 per hour for dozens of hours on end.
Abject poverty, oppression of civil rights, and indentured servitude does have it's advantages. Damn the world for wanting to have favorable working conditions. Next they'll be asking to use the bathroom stalls during their 14 hour shifts. That's what the mason jar at your desk is for buddy!
Another perspective, with more research and thought, can be found here: http://www.thisamericanlife.org/radio-archives/episode/454/mr-daisey-and...
This is the whole ball game folks. This is why you hear politicians tell us we are not competitive. Corporations want to lower labor costs to near zero but reap maximum productivity with awful working conditions. This why you hear politicians slam labor unions and try to convince us that racing to the bottom is a good thing.
This makes me think that the Asian factories aren't passing on the cost of the suicide nets to their customers to maintain a low cost to suicide ratio.
That's cheating!
State sanctioned slavery whatever it's form is always more flexible. That is until.........

I suggest to read the same article at tuaw. They go a little more in depth into Apples's reason than this piece and it makes more sense. Sorry but this very brief article does make things sound worse than they are. Apple has more than just the one reason Rene writes about for manufacturing in China, so either read the NY Times article in full or take a look at tuaw for a summary of said article.
Also, the dorms are for the thousands of employees that are mainly from out of town and obviously don't get paid enough to cover rent. Chinese are fairly practicle. What's the sense of looking for a place if 1) expensive when you take utilities and transport into consideration and 2) if you're there alone because single or sending money home to family. Remember, they have a 1 child policy so a lot hinges on that 1 child earning money and sending it home to help the family. Sure it's not ideal but given there is always someone to take your place, what would you do? The US is like that now in some ways - supply of labour higher than demand for labour .
Can anyone imagine how expensive an iPhone or an iPad would be if it were made here? No thanks.
It wouldn't be because Apple could still make really good margins given their pricing on items. But even if they translated it directly, the price difference was estimated to be about 20% more.
oh yeah it has nothing to do with having a big profit margin...do they have any factories at all in the US making iphones etc
And they also don't have to put up with Union BS. :(
apple choses china, for the same reasons everyone does. first of all its cheap and second, americans only want to complain about not having production plants at home, they dont actually want to work in them! were used to cheap electronics from china, and we want to keep those, but we love complaing about chinas labor laws because we are fooled into thinking we are put in place to save the world from itself. this works out nicely as it gives americans the impression of themselves that they are conscious, but lets them continue to live in their little propaganda bubble, while corporations continue to make profits from exploiting the labor we love to hate and hate to love.
That's the best way I have seen of putting a simple point.
The point is not only correct for the USA but also most other 1st World and quite a few 2nd World countries!
People will harp on about how these contractor factories are stealing Jobs but if they brought the employment back to the USA or UK or whichever country it happened to be they would turn their noses up at the work and call it slave labor because the working day is longer than they want.
It's like the people that walk around waving their Made in China phone and driving their vehicles with many component parts made in China and telling people that they will never buy anything made in China.
I was in Walmart about 36 months ago and picked up a bag of Candy, I used to purchase to drop off at an assisted living that my Grandma was in at the time. Happened to look at the rear and it said Made in China on the bag. Heck, even many of the major brands of Dog food are either produced in China or component ingredients are produced in china.
We live in a World of hypocrisies and now businesses that have production done in China, India etc are being blamed for the lack of jobs. The lack of jobs is because we as a people want luxuries at lower and lower prices.
It is not the companies faults, they are doing what we want, it is not the fault of the Chinese companies that tendered for the contracts to produce these products.
You are right, IT IS REALLY OUR FAULTS!
Nice looking at all the excuses made for Apple by those that want to apologize for their obscene profit taking. But Apple isn't alone. Nike, HP, Tommy Hilfiger, P&G, etc etc etc all do the same thing. It has to do with American (& other countries), consumerism & wanting it now at the lowest price possible. Which one would think would disqualify Apple's offerings based on price but I digress.
But of course politics plays a major role here too. If you are a flaming leftist (which populate the tech industry by & large), then you are more forgiving of said company with their corporate greed & labor policies. Apple talks a good game on their website, as most companies do, about their environmental awareness & fair labor practices. Then they rake you over the coals with outrageous profit taking & corporate greed.
When did Apple last give to charitable works? Steve himself said the company wasn't profitable enough to give to causes like the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. yet no outrage from the leftist politicians & the 'Occupy" movement cry babies is directed at Apple. Odd yet totally expected hypocrisy.
I was really hoping the iMore crew would comment on this in more depth. The site often talks about the role of tech in our lives- how much more important of an issue could you come up with? What is the responsibility of consumers for the conditions used to create the products we love? Do corporations like Apple (and many others) have a responsibility beyond their customer base and shareholders? Are we our brother's keepers or is it really an Ayn Randian free for all? How those questions are viewed inform the legitimacy of our current economic model.
Is there any way of enhancing text? (eg. drop-shadow)?
I thought it was going to become some dull old publish, but it seriously compensated for my time. I'll publish a website link to this web page on my weblog. I'm certain my website visitors will locate that quite helpful.

This product is fine for warmish weather, but not for freezing or below. Good construction and quality, though.
I'm usually skeptical of these things, figuring they don't do anything since it just has to be a year of schmutz, cheetos, and various nasties filling up my iPhone 4s Home button. This actually worked however. I've been playing around with things that lately had been annoying (like double clicking to get to the multi-task, but it would be triple clicking which causes a reverse in colors). I'm happy.

HBO? not worth the $
HBO? not worth the $
I got HBO a few years ago as part of a package when I needed to get Universal Sports to watch skating.
Now US is no longer available to me , but meanwhile I have gotten hooked on HBO. Couldn't afford to get Showtime as well, but I catch up on a few of their shows after the fact via Netflix.
The acting and production quality of much of what's on broadcast TV is painful to me after having watched very little TV at all (besides skating) for a number of years and then mostly cable shows that put more time into each episode.
Anyway, I can foresee some problems with this show but there are also things I like about it, so I'm in for the season.
Years ago, only 1 HBO and 1 Showtime were available. Now when you order HBO and Showtime, you get multiple channels for the same price. (On satellite)
Now when you order HBO, you get 8 channels. HBO-E, HBO2E, HBOSG, HBO-W, HBO2W, HBOFM, HBOCY, HBOLT.
When you order Showtime, you get 6 channels. SHO-E, SHO-W, SHOTO, SHOCS, SHOEX, SBYND.
Their best stuff usually ends up on cable eventually - I can wait.
3539 and counting.
Slightly Wounding Banana list cont: MacMadame.
I actually resubscribed to HBO in large part because of this show (among other things). I was happy with the pilot and look forward to more.
Meant to say earlier: I think it was smart to set the timeline for this as 2010 (or at least starting there). Lets them use real news stories as they really happened, like they did for the pilot, but I would imagine they'll use "fake" stories too as the series develops -- but without being not-current. One of the biggest oddities in The West Wing was being about "real world" politics but against the alternate-reality backdrop, esp. post-911.
So after watching episode 2, I'm noticing now Sorkin repeats himself not just in the broad strokes and characterizations, but in the tiny dialogue details as well. In the opening run-down meeting, the phrases "Muhammed al Muhammed al Muhammed al Bazir" and "were you distracted by a bumble-bee?" were used, both of which I recognized from The West Wing.
I am finding it grating in places ... but still entertaining enough to keep going. For now at least. I'll be interested to see how they develop Olivia Munn's character (I've only ever seen her in The Daily Show). And I continue to love Sam Waterston as "the white Robert Guillaume."
I wasn't nearly as impressed by the second episode as I was by the first.
There is enough going on politically without getting it from your "entertainment"stations..
HBO? not worth the $
For me the last straw was putting the mock up of President Bush's head on a stake...just imagine if that was our current president's head...it would have been on the front page of every newspaper ( what's left of them) and headlining every news show...but only because it would have been racist, not political. Of course, this was neither..right?
All politics aside...after watching that hideous episode 2, Richard and I said "that was it!" We won't be watching anymore. My big peeve was the absolutely disgusting depiction of the two most prominent women in the show. I have worked in many corporate settings over my years, and those women were the most revolting example of what some men "think" women can be on the job. Just off the wall emotional, hyper, unprofessional, and..well...I was repulsed. How many melt-downs did they experience between them? Professional women do NOT act like that in the work force. And I've been in the work force battling it out for women's rights since I was 14. Sorkin must have issues with women, and if what's being said over on "Television without pity" is correct..there's a lot of smoke.
Bye Newsroom! Lots of luck.
I do love HBO, though, except for this thing. Didn't they create "Deadwood?" I forgot her name, but the little blonde whore on Deadwood should go into the Newsroom office and just kick some ass. I bet she could straighten them all out without blabbering on for 15 minutes.
On the Russian-American forums participants were very excited about the show after the first episode, and after this 2nd episode there is a wave of discontent....
I may be wrong, but I thought liberals/the left/Democrats were generally pro-immigration.
That kind of behavior perpetuates what many men think of women in the workplace, and it pisses me off. Estrogen driven hysteria. Olivia Munn is a beautiful woman, but can she not see how demeaning this is? How silly? OK-I'm being too harsh. Forgive me. But back in the 1970's and 80's, it was tough. I hate seeing women act like this on such a hyped show. I could tell you all stories of demeaning and disgusting behavior that I coukd have sued for in this day and age. And these depictions of women are demeaning to me. Just demeaning. How can this get by in 2012??

I don't know--I often wonder what films and shows we would see if most of the writers and producers in Hollywood were female. I am not bashing men---I am merely curious.
Tonight's episode was MUCH better than last week. I'm glad we decided to hang in there on this show. I'm optimistic about the trend.

Beyond #LoveCapeTown: Popping out to Paternoster
I'm a big fan of Cape Town. I've had the luxury of living in a few other cities so I feel I can make a fair comparison, but every so often I need to get out of the Mother City. Recently, I picked Paternoster as my weekend destination, and before my girlfriend even had time to say "It's the weekend!", we were off.
Tourist in My Own City: The V&A Waterfront Dine-About
Living in Cape Town, I've always used the V&A Waterfront as a quick shopping stop - a meal, groceries, new shirts, etc. Thus when I was recently invited to a dine-about at three of the Waterfront's top restaurants, I leapt at the opportunity to try something a little different, and a lot more fun.
Winelands with a twist
I have an obsession with doing things differently, which normally makes me really annoying to travel with, but occasionally I find something really cool, like my long weekend in the Robertson Winelands with my girlfriend.

Adenovirus infection is an infection caused by a virus. The infection can lead to:
- The common cold, bronchitis, or pneumonia
- Conjunctivitis, also known as pink eye
- Stomach flu
- Urinary tract infections
The infection is caused by a type of virus called an adenovirus. There are several types of these viruses. The infection passes easily from person to person but is rarely serious.
Risk Factors
These infections are very common in children. The following factors may increase the risk of an adenovirus infection:
- Weakened immunity
- Exposure to a sneeze or cough of an infected person
- Exposure to the stool of an infected person
- Living in close contact with others such as military units, schools, or summer camps
- Handling an object that was exposed to an infected person
- Exposure to water contaminated with adenovirus
Adenoviruses are able to infect mucus membranes that are found in:.
- Respiratory tract
- Eyes
- Intestines
- Urinary tract
Symptoms will depend on where the infection is. Symptoms of adenovirus infection may include:
General symptoms such as:
- Fever
- Swollen lymph nodes
- Headache
Respiratory symptoms such as:
- Sore throat
- Runny nose
- Cough
Intestinal symptoms such as:
- Diarrhea
- Vomiting
- Abdominal cramps
Urinary symptoms such as:
- Frequent urination
- Burning, pain, and/or blood in the urine
- Red, irritated eyes with eye infections
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done.
Your doctor may take some samples. The samples will be used to confirm the presence of an adenovirus. The type of sample will depend on your symptoms. Your doctor may test one or more of the following:
- Mucous from throat or nose
- Stool
- Blood
- Urine
There are no specific treatments for adenoviruses. The infections will usually end on their own. Support treatment may be needed with severe infections. Talk with your doctor about the best plan for you.
Treatment options include:
Management of Symptoms
The following steps may help you be more comfortable:
- Get plenty of rest
- Drink plenty of fluids
- Use a humidifier or vaporizer
- Take acetaminophen or other over-the-counter medicines if you have discomfort
If you have conjunctivitis, your doctor may have you use warm compresses. You may also be asked to use eye ointments or drops.
Fluid Replacement
Severe diarrhea or vomiting can lead to dehydration. Fluids may need to be given by IV.
Medical Treatment
Infections can be more severe in people with a weak immune system. This may include people with organ transplants, HIV/AIDS, or medical treatments for chronic diseases. Medication may be needed to reduce the intensity of the infection. Talk to your doctor if you have a weakened immune system..
The best way to prevent adenovirus infection is to:
- Avoid contact with infected persons.
- Wash hands often.
- Wash and clean common surfaces, such as countertops or toys.
- Avoid touching your nose, mouth, and eyes.
- Keep adequate amounts of chlorine in swimming pools. This will help prevent outbreaks of conjunctivitis associated with pools.
Military personnel aged 17 to 50 years of age may be eligible to get the adenovirus vaccine. It is available in a pill form.

text: It is mean to mock Sato for winning a weak Worlds though. The 2006 Worlds which Cohen lost was even weaker. 1994 Sato faced and beat Bonaly, Szewcenko, Chouinaurd, Markova, and Kiellmann. 2006 Cohen faced Suguri, Meissner, and a nowhere near prime level Rochette. I take 1994 easily, but Sato took her chance and won, and Cohen couldnt.

Just as SXSW-curated Speed Sets banged out a lot of music quickly, I'm going to do a Speed Set to bang out a lot of information quickly.
Danish electro-pop diva Oh Land played a very solid set. You may have heard the infectious single "Son of a Gun," which she closed with. The rest of her set was nice, but not anything especially fantastic.
Versus played a similarly solid set of guitar-based indie rock. They're a Merge Records band that has been around in various forms since 1990, so that should tell you a lot about the quality and content of the set. It ain't trendy, but it's consistent, strong music.
Dance-punk phenomenon !!! (aka Chk-chk-chk) turns its myriad of instrumentalists into one funky, fast-paced machine live. Their lead singer is an absolute wonder, as he prances, dances, makes eyes at the crowd, wanders into the audience, hollers, sings and generally goes ballistic. He put his hand on my head and sung into my face from several inches away for a line. I am not unique in this treatment. Yes. You must see them live.
Malajube's rock was equal parts Muse and The Bravery. It was fun, but I keep wondering how long the hat-snare dance-rock beat is going to last.
Little Scream's epic-leaning indie rock included a bass flute, group vocals (primarily led by a female vocalist) and great songwriting. They're also from Montreal. Has Arcade Fire asked them to tour together yet? Please say "yes" when they do, Little Scream.
Owen Pallett's looped violin and piano lines create polyphonic, mind-blowing, mini-symphonies. The fact that you can sing along to them is just a bonus. His energetic tunes had the impressed audience smiling. Pallett proves that string virtuosos can be cool.
Braids laid down a mesmerizing set. Starting off with highlight track "Glass Deers" off their album "Native Speaker," they entranced the audience with their ambient, fuzzy indie rock. I got lost in the sound; it's like listening to a warm blanket. They thoroughly impressed me, and I can't wait to see them again.
Erin McLaughlin played a quick but beautiful folk show. Her poignant, acoustic-based songs speak for themselves. I was so moved that I bought her EP (the only music I bought in the entire SXSW week). You must check it out.
Slije Nes' gentle and ethereal tunes so affected me that I was tearing up during the set. The Norwegian woman spent much of her time sitting on the ground playing, and she turned all the lights off, except for one tiny strand of Christmas lights piled next to her foot pedals. It created an intimate, immersive experience, as her gentle voice and hushed accompaniment (how quiet? One of the songs features the percussionist scratching his arm into a microphone — and we could hear it) created an absolutely fascinating performance. Beautiful, beautiful music, even when she ratcheted up the electric guitar volume for one track.
Sharon Van Etten's speaking voice was hoarse, but her singing one was not, as she filled Central Presbyterian Church with her mournful voice and somber harmonium. It was gorgeous.
With horns, strings, four percussionists (two with drumsets, two with auxiliary percussion) augmenting your average guitars and such, Typhoon's sound filled an entire church. When all twelve of them sang, it became a revelatory experience. The songs are brilliant in their recorded format, but they become something else entirely when played live. It was easily the best set I saw at SXSW. If you haven't heard of Typhoon yet, you will. (That's as many of them as I could fit in a frame, up there at the top of the post)
The Rural Alberta Advantage's "Departing" just came out, and I found it to be a lot different than their previous work. Live, however, the new tunes fit in neatly with the older ones. The set was fun, with a nice mix of old and new songs. The highlight was the encore/closer, which had the three members of RAA come down from the stage to the audience for an acoustic version of "Good Night," the somber closer of "Departing." It was an incredibly fitting end to a massive week of music.

Hebrew (Modern)
In the Modern Hebrew major you will develop the ability to use Modern Hebrew; namely to speak, read, and write in Modern Hebrew. The language you will use is, primarily, spoken daily speech; yet over the course of the major you will have opportunities to study a range of genres and text types both spoken and written, from media to prose and poetry.
By the end of your major you will have mastered the ability to use Modern Hebrew in a wide variety of contexts and situations and you will gain an understanding of how to discuss and analyse the linguistic features of Modern Hebrew, as well as the literature and culture associated with the language.
Study plan
A major in Hebrew (Modern) requires at least 36 senior credit points, including at least 6 credit points at 3000 level.
The Modern Hebrew Program offers several entry points depending on your previous knowledge and usage of the language. Following the completion of a placement test, you are directed to the unit best suited for your level of knowledge. Once in the program you will enjoy a clear learning progression.
Junior units of study (1000 level):
Junior units of study (1000 level) provide an introduction to the Hebrew alphabet, alongside conversing, reading, and writing in simple everyday Hebrew. If you have no previous knowledge of Modern Hebrew you will enrol in HBRW1011 and HBRW1102, respectively. These two junior units are equivalent to the first part of level A (the first, of six levels) of Modern Hebrew instruction at the Hebrew University, Jerusalem.
Senor units of study (2000 and 3000 level):
As you progress in your usage and knowledge of Modern Hebrew and move into the senior units of study, your oral communication skills continue to be fostered, and you have further opportunities to engage in a variety of genres and text types from higher registers of the language.
In senior-intermediate units of study (2000 level) you further develop your language skills and engage in a wider range of text types. These are equivalent to level A and B of Modern Hebrew instruction at the Hebrew University.
Senior-advanced (3000 level) units of study you progressively engage with higher registers of the language and read and analyse short stories (requiring an assignment component of 350 words in Modern Hebrew), and you begin to engage with non-modified Modern Hebrew text types. These are equivalent to the level C at the Hebrew University. In HBRW3612, HBRW3613 and HBRW3614, HBRW3615 (equivalent, respectively, to level D and E at the Hebrew University), you extend the level and repertoire of your oral presentations, which now include a component of individual research (in Modern Hebrew); the range and variety of non-modified texts you are exposed to, is extended; and the written analysis of literature is extended to 500, and 750 words respectively.
Whichever sequence you follow, you enjoy a progressive increase of usage and knowledge of Modern Hebrew, as well as (linguistic) knowledge about Modern Hebrew. Furthermore, you are introduced to a widening corpus of written and literary texts.

Chas Roy-Chowdhury, head of taxation at ACCA says: 'It is not an easy task for companies wishing to operate across border to comply with the various VAT reporting rules currently in place in the EU 28. We therefore commend the publication of this very useful business focused proposal, which we have worked closely on together with the European Commission and other interested groups and forums. We believe that it represents a step in the right direction to help companies, especially the small ones, to make the most of - and possibly expand - their business opportunities in the single market. The EC has committed itself to 'think small first' in its 2008 Communication on a Small Business Act for Europe, and ACCA has been a champion of SMEs' interests both in the response to the Green Paper on the Future of VAT and on other platforms since.'
For ACCA, restricting the number of possible boxes on the VAT return form and aligning their content and presentation across the EU should help reduce significantly the learning burden on small businesses. The SME, when setting-up in another member state, may find itself needing to register for VAT in the other jurisdictions whereas they may not have been required to register in their home market. Being able to rely upon their domestic guidance and advice that should be applicable across the EU would benefit both administrations and taxpayers.
Chas Roy-Chowdhury explains: 'The Commission is being pragmatic and completely appropriate in its proposals to set an upper national limit of 26 boxes, with just 5 mandatory items required across the Union. The proposals should in principle not disturb the existing light touch approach that several jurisdictions have already adopted, and support those member states with very detailed VAT returns streamline in completing the modernisation of their requirements.'
ACCA has been constantly arguing that a clear, simple and standardised approach to VAT reporting would help enhancing transparency and facilitate more coordinated exchanges of information. These count amongst the key elements of the principles of tax good governance, which the Commission is actively seeking to promote.
The global accountancy body also supports the preference for electronic submission of information directly by the taxpayer, which will in many cases - and increasingly - be the most convenient format for both taxpayers and tax authorities.
Chas Roy-Chowdhury adds: 'Alignment of calculation processes and consistency in approach will complement the characteristics of enhanced electronic filing, and we believe that the EU executive should look to the future benefits of coordinated treatment across the Union. A common experience of VAT reporting would bring the possibility of a true 'one-stop-shop' closer. We thus encourage the Commission to effectively engage with administrations and import the best practices from across the EU in developing the model for submission.'
'It is also worth mentioning that a further advantage of the reduced requirements for disclosure, especially where governments fully embrace the opportunity to streamline their own data collection, is the ease with which alternative capture methods can still be accommodated for those taxpayers unable for whatever reason to submit online,' Chas Roy-Chowdhury concludes.

All Here For A ReasonI turned onto a shady, well-manicured driveway that, for all intents and purposes, looked harmless enough. Maple trees lined both sides of the street, and a parade of Canadian geese marched across the road to a wide duck pond with a flamboyant fountain. There were blooming crepe myrtles and rose-of-sharons, and as I grew closer to my destination, neatly trimmed gardens with neatly trimmed bushes.
I stopped to let the geese pass. They looked at me; one hissed. I honked my horn and moved around them.
At the end of the road sat a collection of grayish buildings and a number of signs directing me to the appropriate parking lot. "Welcome to Ten Creeks Hospital," said one of them. "Please enjoy your stay." I parked in the visitor's lot. Surely I wouldn't be staying.

The first look was so telling.

In truth, this is an Italian tree-hugger only Tisci could fashion into real world existence.
Designers Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pier Paolo Picciol took a surprising step away from the usual esthetic and a more mature, sensual and severe Valentino woman introduced a more arcane prestige to the dreamlike elegance of a classic beauty.

The California Golden Bears are ready to tip off their 2012-2013 college basketball season. Grab the best seats in the house at the Haas Pavilion or follow your Bears on the road right here at Gold Coast Tickets!
Last season the Bears made it to the NCAA Tournament play in game to see who would be the #12 seed in the round of 64. The Bears lost to the South Florida Bulls, but put up a good fight. Their best season in the past decade came in 2010 when head coach Mike Montgomery took the Bears to the second round of the tourney.
They beat a very good Louisville Cardinal team as Montgomery beat Rick Patino. However, they fell short in the second round as Montgomery could not get past Coach K and the eventual National Champion Duke Blue Devils. Montgomery thought it was such an honor to be coaching against some of the all-time greatest coaches to ever step onto the hardwood. In 1994 the Bears sent the best player to ever walk through the gates at Haas Pavilion to the NBA Draft. Jason Kidd averaged 16.7 points, 6.9 rebounds, 3.1 steals, and 9.1 assists in his last year with the Bears. Nonetheless, Kidd's days are over with the bears and it time for the 2012-2013 team to do some damage. They return leading scorer Allen Crabbe from last year and bring in Rivals Top 150 guard Tyrone Wallace to help out in the backcourt. The Pac 12 is a tough conference, but Coach Mike Montgomery feels that they have the team to win it this year.
Gold Coast Tickets does not want you to miss out on the action as the Bears youth steps onto the court for the 2012 season. Gold Coast Tickets has the best selection for your entire college basketball season needs!
