Really nice article
Really nice article
When is graduation day for Michelle? I'll bet she's up to her eyeballs in papers and reports and exams right now.
I love that she is into IR like I am! A lot of my friends did the Fletcher route. It's a great school. I'm happy she loves my own town- DC! Of course, if we end up in the same circle somewhere, someday I will need to control my inner-fangirl.
Very nice, well-written article. One mistake I noticed: Kwan's brother is older and taller than her, so I wouldn't describe him as her "little brother."
Awwww, Kwan:
"By being appointed a diplomatic envoy [plus] my involvement with the Council and Special Olympics, I've been able to give back. I want to be a good citizen, a great athlete, a great student, a great sister and a great daughter. Those are things I hope for in my life—and to make a difference in people's lives through public service. I want to be able to say I've made a difference."
Michelle has already made a huge difference in the lives of so many people, as a figure skater. Now, I suppose she's eager to do the same in her new career, yet still with her work as an envoy, I'm certain she's already done that as well. And she's already an exceptional citizen, a great athlete, student, sister, daughter, and aunt too! I guess the thing she exemplifies is, Do not rest on your laurels and do not believe all the accolades and superlatives that come your way.

I really enjoy hearing about her new endeavours and where she is heading in her life. So good that she has found focus outside of skating.
President Kwan anyone?
When you are up to your arse in alligators it is difficult to remember you were only meant to be draining the swamp.
Now I can say "Howdie, neighbor!" to the Kween! I guess that we'll all be eating at Circa Cafe in Dupont Circle soon, eh? She also mentions Russia House...a great 'pick-up place' lounge and not so much a restaurant. I bet that we can spot her at the famous Whole Foods of P Street, between 15th & 14th Sts, the fave grocery shop of the well-heeled YUPPIES who live in Dupont Circle area.
Question: Has Michele taken and passed the Foreign Service Exam to be a career diplomat? Or is she planning to go from 'special appointment' to 'special appointment' for the rest of her life? I would think not. Most folks who come to this town to do diplomacy do it through the Foreign Service Exam or similar tough exams required to have true careers in the international agencies. Michele had the brain to go to Fletcher so I am guessing that she'll take the test -- it often takes several tries -- and opt for a true diplomatic career path, which commands the greatest respect among Foggy Bottom regulars.
p.s. also posted this in the other thread on this subject, in Great Skate Debate.
Dick Button Historical Quote of the Month: "Good for you, Lucinda Ruh!"
Shouldn't this thread be merged with the one on the same topic (Michelle Kwan Woman in Washington) in Great Skate Debate?
Happy graduation day to the Kween.
New interview with Michelle. Good luck to her in Washington!
So any word on where she is going to be working? Why the secrecy? I thought she is moving to DC, not Langley, Virginia.
"Nature is a damp, inconvenient sort of place where birds and animals wander about uncooked."
from Speedy Death
Kudos to the Kween..She is an amazing woman!
I'm looking forward to whatever she chooses - wherever it leads.
I am very happy for her and wish her well. However I'm not happy with how her lack of involvement with skating any longer leaves the sport high and dry. We've been used to our Peggy and Dorothy and Kristi types continuing to carry the torch for the sport as they got older. Now we have none of our recent ladies Olympic champions and Kwan though not Olympic champion very much a standard-bearer carrying the torch here. I can't help but think we might still have some professional skating here if the Kween had continued to skate professionally. Oh well. As a skating fan I'm kind of bummed. Felt the same way about Janet Lynn but others stayed active to make up for her lack of involvement. But it is her life and of course she should do what she wants...and as I said I wish her the best.
BTW I work for the federal government in a fairly high position and I wish I was a skating star. Guess the grass often looks greener
Congratulations to Michelle Kwan on another stunning achievement!
I APPROVE THIS MESSAGE!I asked if she could ever see herself making those decisions as a politician some day, and she answered "yes'' without hesitation.
"So when is your first run for office?''
"Maybe that's what I'll do this summer,'' she added with a laugh.

We are now halfway through the 20th Anniversary Global Outkast Tour of 2014. A true Storyteller, Andre 3000 has visually conveyed messages at each show through a non-traditional medium: the custom jumpsuit. I felt it necessary to corral examples of his recent fashion choices in a central place, and here they are, as they've appeared chronologically on the tour. NOTE: He did not wear a jumpsuit during the very first show at weekend one of Coachella.

The announcement yesterday by HMRC's chief executive, Lin Homer, that her organisation will hire an additional 1,000 contact centre staff is strongly welcomed today by ACCA (the Association of Charted Certified Accountants).
Chas Roy-Chowdhury, head of taxation at ACCA comments: 'This is a much needed boost to staffing levels to help HMRC meet its contact centre targets. It's an investment to future proof HMRC, which promised the Treasury's Select Committee that a target to meet 90 per cent of all calls would be met in two years. But the announcement yesterday means HMRC is aiming to be ahead of target and on track to meet the challenge by March 2013.'
This investment has come about as a result of the close working between HMRC and the Joint Initiative on HMRC Service Delivery (JIHSD), of which ACCA is a member along with other professional bodies and tax charities. JIHSD has said in the past that service levels were unacceptable and worked with HMRC to offer solutions.
Chas Roy-Chowdhury adds: 'We agreed with HMRC at Chairman, Chief Executive and also at Ministerial level that more support is needed for the UK's taxpayers, but also that more help is needed for HMRC staff. The volume of calls they receive is huge – some 60 million a year – and with job losses and staff cuts over recent years, this has dented staff morale.
'This is why we welcome this announcement and look forward to seeing further improvements in service for the UK taxpayer. Benchmarking themselves with industry best practice also shows that HMRC is working to becoming truly customer focused.'

Speaking before the RedState Bloggers Convention in New Orleans, La., Gov. Rick Perry had another public slip-up when he compared other states to Texas' conservative values.
Perry: "There are many other states that embrace those conservative values -- the approach that we've taken over the years. I'm in one today -- in Florida. You look at South Carolina, you look at Florida."
Woman in the audience: " We're in Louisiana!"
Perry: "I know and I said that."
A political nonprofit has filed a petition with the state alleging that creationists on the State Board of Education are planning to adopt textbooks that discount the theory of evolution.
Creationists believe that everything on Earth and in the universe was created by a supreme being.

Many in the Democratic Party at both the state and national level have been holding their breath, wondering if the champion of an abortion filibuster would run for higher office.
Texas is continuing to produce big numbers in crude oil and natural gas production. The Eagle Ford Shale and West Texas Permian Basin are out producing the high expectations of industry experts.
The U.S. Energy Information Administration released new U.S. crude oil production data for the month of May and Texas, the country's number one oil-producing state, continues to produce energy at a pace that experts are marveling at.
Texas Matters: With the visit of Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius to Texas this week, key figures for and against the new health care bill are sounding off across the state. Even as the law continues to roll out, small business owners are still unsure about how they will handle employee health care. Also on this episode: A look at self-policing in the Houston Police Department.
Update: So far over 5,000 people have signed the online petition as back-to-school shopping hits full stride with the state's tax-free shopping weekend, which starts today.
"It's not a good weekend to have this kind of press, but it's not ever a good time for them to have this type of press because it's not a good time to take this kind of position on an issue," said Ed Espinoza of Progress Texas.
Macy's has released a statement defending its support of Perry's veto and their own company structure:
Fronteras: Any new immigration bill will include some measure of increased border surveillance, which doesn't sit well with people already fed up with federal scrutiny. As members of Congress begin their August break, many will be getting an earful from constituents about immigration reform. A college in Southern Nevada is struggling to meet the needs of its growing Latino student body. Part of the Navajo Nation has been slow to rebuild after a development freeze, which is affecting some of the poorest people on the reservation.
The state has released this year's school accountability ratings under the agency's new rating system, which show 84 percent of all individual campuses and charter schools "met standard."
The new school accountability system, which was passed by the Texas Legislature during the regular session earlier this year, was designed to make it easier for parents to understand how each school district and individual campuses measured up.

Here we go again for our seventh visit to the Gran Paradiso. We have stayed in hotels all over Italy but this one is by far the best. Roll-on September - can't wait !!
Joachim + Christiane
Wir waren 1 Woche(Mai 2013) im Hotel Paradiso, großes Zimmer und Balkon(alles super sauber).Der Ausblick vom Balkon ist nicht zu toppen(Blick auf Capri,Ischia und
Neapel). Im Hotel und am Poolbereich alles ordentlich und sauber. Personal an der Rezeption besonders Nadja sehr hilfsbereit, für jedes Problem eine Lösung. Wir würden immer wieder gern dort Urlaub machen.
Paula and Chris Johnston
We had a wonderful holiday in Sorrento, fantastic views from our room (311), food was lovely, driver and shuttle bus great, pool and terrace perfect. Looking forward to returning, loved it!

truely relaxing two weeks, the view from our balcony was breathtaking. the bay on it's own is beautiful, but throw in Vesuvius & you have a wonder of the world. the hotel staff once you get over the stern faces were very friendly. the only problem was the lack of evening entertainment. if they had a really good singer/band the hotel would have been awesome. special thanks to Guiseppie & his band for putting up with our fussy ways, always gave us a very warm welcome. excellent.
My boyfriend and I stayed here at the end of May for a week, and absolutely loved the hotel. Clean, spacious, relaxing, wonderful staff, nice food and incredible views from the pool terrace. Thank you for a great holiday :)

We have just had another truly memorable stay at the Grand Paradiso we were there the same time last year and everything was just as perfect. The staff are an amazing team who are always friendly and polite and nothing is too much trouble for any of them. We again met some lovely guests and had a great holiday, we will surely be back again. We feel we have found a perfect gem in Sorrento. Many thanks to all the staff, as I said last year you are a great team.
Colin & Rosemary Mellor
We stayed at the hotel last week (w/c 14th May)to celebrate our 25th Wedding anniversary. I can honestly say that we could not have had better service from any of the staff. Nello and Guiseppe were especially outstanding. The standard of the restaurant was excellent. The view from our room of the bay of Naples and Vesuvius could not have been better. We would have no hesitation in recommending this hotel to anyone, especially adults.I would not recommend for young children as there are no facilities specifically designed for young ones.

Liebes Team,
uns hat es die letzten beiden Jahre so gut gefallen, dass ich heute wieder einen Urlaub im Reisebüro gebucht habe. Freue mich auf August im Gran Paradiso!

Vaccines to Consider
You may be at risk for these vaccine-preventable diseases while travelling in this country. Talk to your travel health provider about which ones are right for you.
Hepatitis A
Hepatitis A is a disease of the liver spread by contaminated food or water. All those travelling to regions with a risk of hepatitis A infection should get vaccinated.
Hepatitis B
Hepatitis B is a disease of the liver spread through blood or other bodily fluids. Travellers who may be exposed (e.g., through sexual contact, medical treatment or occupational exposure) should get vaccinated.
Seasonal influenza occurs worldwide. The flu season usually runs from November to April in the northern hemisphere, between April and October in the southern hemisphere and year round in the tropics. Influenza (flu) is caused by a virus spread from person to person when they cough or sneeze or through personal contact with unwashed hands. Get the flu shot.
Measles is a highly contagious viral disease and is common in most parts of the world. Be sure your measles vaccination is up-to-date regardless of your travel destination.
Typhoid is a bacterial infection spread by contaminated food or water. Risk is higher among travellers going to rural areas, visiting friends and relatives, or with weakened immune systems. Travellers visiting regions with typhoid risk, especially those exposed to places with poor sanitation should consider getting vaccinated.
Yellow Fever Vaccination
Yellow fever is a disease caused by the bite of an infected mosquito.
Travellers get vaccinated either because it is required to enter a country or because it is recommended for their protection.
|* It is important to note that country entry requirements may not reflect your risk of yellow fever at your destination. It is recommended that you contact the nearest diplomatic or consular office of the destination(s) you will be visiting to verify any additional entry requirements.

Get ready to grab your hats and grab your coats and leave your worries on the doorstep because the Town Players of New Canaan opens on February 22nd with Ken Ludwig's fast, furious, and fun comedy The Fox on the Fairway, produced by Sheri Dean and directed by Tim Cronin. Performance dates are Friday & Saturday, Feb. 22, 23 & March 1, 2, 8 & 9 at 8 p.m. with Sunday matinees on February 24 & March 3 at 2:30 p.m. at the Powerhouse Theatre in Waveny Park, 677 South Avenue, New Canaan. Tickets are $20 for adults and $15 for students and seniors (age 62). For tickets, please call the Town Players' box office at (203) 966-7371. Anyone attending the opening night performance is invited to attend a party after the show.
Ken Ludwig has had six shows on Broadway and six in the West End, and he has won two Laurence Olivier Awards, three Tony Award nominations, two Helen Hayes Awards and the Edgar Award. It strikes Mr. Ludwig that golf is "innately funny and has good comic roots: people all excited about getting a little ball in a hole, the stakes seem amazingly high, and you get all upset about something that is not very important. This is about a bet by the head of one country club who bets against the head of another country club on the yearly tournament they have with each other." Things go awry and havoc breaks out when the night before the tournament opens the best golfer switches club allegiance from Quail Valley to Crouching Squirrel.
The jolly cast of skilled comedy actors are Kevin McDonough as Henry Bingham, director of Quail Valley, Tom Petrone as Dickie Bell, director of the Crouching Squirrel, Deborah Burke as the beautiful lush Pamela, Marcia Cummings as Muriel, owner of the Ye Olde Crock antique shop and Bingham's wife, as well as Sarah Smegal and Morgan Flagg as the young lover golfers Louise and Justin. They will lead audiences on a madcap adventure about love, life and man's eternal love affair with golf.

People who have won compensation for mis-sold payment protection insurance (PPI) could be caught out by not declaring the interest on that compensation in their self-assessment tax return, warns ACCA (the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants).
The warning comes as hundreds of thousands of extra people are expected to complete the self-assessment tax return for the first time by 31 October, with changes to the child benefit system and a rise in the number of self-employed driving up numbers of individuals who self-assess.
Chas Roy-Chowdhury, ACCA head of taxation, said: 'While the PPI compensation itself is not taxed, any interest element awarded on that sum is taxable. Failure to declare that in the self-assessment form could lead to a knock at the door from HM Revenue & Customs. It's not obvious at all in completing the necessary forms.'
ACCA points out that current estimates put the total compensation paid out for mis-sold PPI at more than £10bn so far. However, the global accountancy body says that other factors will see more people complete self-assessment this year than ever before and could create a backlog for HMRC.
Chas Roy-Chowdhury said: 'There are not only more self-employed people out there, but changes to the child benefit system also mean that a new wave of people will need to fill out the self-assessment form this year. We are talking hundreds of thousands. The deadline is not until 31 October, but if you get it wrong you could be penalised.
'Even those who have gone through the self-assessment process before will see some new elements to it, making what was originally meant to be an easy process much more complicated and vulnerable to mistakes. It's not just completing the form that's tough, its knowing what can and can't go in that could trip you up. Self-assessment was supposed to be a DIY tax, but we are at a stage now where guidance from an ACCA finance professional may be a necessity to avoid the potential of being penalised for unpaid tax.'
ACCA points out that if you earn over £50,000 and continue to claim child benefit but do not complete a self-assessment form you could be liable, not only to repay part of all of the benefit claimed by way of a tax charge on the highest earner of the couple, but also interest and penalties on the tax unpaid.
Chas Roy-Chowdhury added: 'There is another risk with the growing numbers facing the self-assessment maze this year and that is that HMRC has, like so many other public bodies, had to cut resources, which means if you call the taxpayer helpline you might find it much harder to get through than usual.'

So I had an opportunity to listen to Audion Black Shadow mono blocks which use the 845 tube. They are SET amps with 25 wpc. They totally outclassed my XA30.5 and I would hope so at $14,000!
I've never heard the Tylers sound this good before. The black shadows basically did everything better except in one area. First off, instruments sounded more realistic. There was more resolution, depth, more separation between the different instruments, and so on....
The only place they started to run out of gas was when I listened to the Gladiator soundtrack, "The Might of Rome," which is a very powerful classical music piece.
They look friggin gorgeous to boot.

The quality of the ring is good for the price we purchased it. The ring looks great and the wife seems happy but overall the ring is too thin. The site showed the ring a bit thicker and bigger than what it is. overall it was a good deal but please work on your site. it can be misleading and turn customers away from shopping site again. thank you.
The ring was just a little smaller than the picture made it look, but for the price i think it was a great ring with a little bling bling!!
Overall, this ring is stunning. It seems to catch the eye of someone anywhere I go. I cannot stop looking at it!
I have had two of these rings and both times one of the diamonds fell out of the band. I don't think it is designed for use that keeps all of the stones from falling out. I sent them both back and my husband bought me a new one in white gold. Hopefully this one will be better quality. Truly disappointing.
I love the ring, I had them sotured together so they wouldnt spin independantly
This is my engagement ring and I love it. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone else because I want to be the only one who has it :-) I get compliments on it everywhere I go
Ring is very dainty in person. Pictures and size description somewhat misleading. Question that center stone is full carat. Still deciding if going to keep or send back. Band width doesnt seem like it will wear well.
Bought the ring for the wife as birthday gift. Needless to say that not only did I win many brownie points but she got a lof of compliments at the Birthday party as well. The picture on the site does justice to the ring and it looks beautiful. I have seen several black diamond rings at my local jeweler, but this the quality of diamonds in this ring certainly stand out and it look way more valuable than it costs. Thanks Overstock!!!!!
I initially left a positive review for this product right when I first got it. It was beautiful, and the picture just did not do the justice. If anyone is buying this as an engagement ring or an everyday ring, then I highly recommend you spend a little extra and go with one of the white gold rings and not the silver. This material is so flimsy. It will warp to your finger, if it doesn't get wacked on something first and completely smashes with your finger still inside. Yes it's beautiful, but the quality is very, very poor.
Was assured that I would receive the package before the weekend when I placed the order. First lie. Then I wait and it never comes. I contact UPS and they already knew, like the rest of the world, that overstock.com is horrible. Worst site to order stuff from. Price is definitely not worth it. Do not pay for next day air because you are throwing your money away I assure you. My company and I are never going to purchase ANYTHING from this site ever again. I don't care what changes they are going to do to the company because they are a joke to begin with down to the core. I tried to contact customer service only to be rudely told that it had only been 2-3 days, but UPS said different. They only got 4th of July off so there's Lie 2. Finally the CS Rep just disconnected the call when I refused to back down, but I was polite and did not hold anything against them personally until then. Now I say, I hope your company goes under.
