We publish knitting-related material, such as books and tutorial DVDs, we teach knitting with passion and organize knitting tours to Iceland.

Our partners:
The Handknitting Association of Iceland was founded in November 1977. A few women, who had used knitting to supplement their families´ income, decided to join forces and established an organization in order to facilitate more extensive marketing of their knitted products. The initial members´ meeting was held in Reykjavík and was attended by close to 1.000. Soon after the Association was established, a store was opened to sell members´ hand knitted woolen goods. The store is a flourishing business in its own right and offers the largest selection of Icelandic yarns from Ístex. Thus, our online store is always well provided!
LT Travel is a small but experienced travel agency located in New York state USA and run by the Icelandic Lína who has lived over there for quite some time.

Despite concerns from business groups and immigrant advocates about a government Web-based employment verification program, a growing number of local companies are using it.
Since the voluntary program E-Verify was offered to employers in 2004, almost 4,000 Georgia companies and more than 800 businesses in Tennessee have signed up to participate in the federal program, including 50 employers in Chattanooga and 96 in Dalton, Ga.
The E-Verify program is a voluntary, Internet-based program established to allow employers to verify workers' employment eligibility electronically with the Department of Homeland Security and the Social Security Administration.
"We have been using E-Verify without any real problems for three years," said Kary Klein, owner of the temporary hiring firm SmartHire in Chattanooga. "I could see the trend coming, and I think eventually most employers are going to have to use it. We want to be a leader in our industry, so we began using E-Verify very early."
Jessica Jones, an employee at SmartHire, said the computer check of new hires is quick and easy.
PDF: New Employment Verification Act
* Within three days of hiring an employee, the participating employer is required to enter information such as the employee's name, date of birth, Social Security number and citizenship status into E-Verify. Within seconds, the employer receives a response.
* If there's a tentative nonconfirmation or "mismatch," the employer must notify the employee and give him or her the opportunity to contest that finding.
* If the employee chooses to contest the "mismatch," he or she has eight business days to visit a Social Security Administration office with the required documents to prove identity.
* Until the "mismatch" is resolved, the employee must be allowed to keep working and cannot be fired or have any other employment-related action taken against him or her.
Source: United States Citizenship and Immigration Services
But a proposal from the Bush administration in June to require all companies doing business with the federal government to use E-Verify has drawn fire from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the Human Resource Initiative for a Legal Workforce and the Immigration Police Center, among others.
Cost concerns
Critics contend E-Verify could prove costly, especially when workers are hired and then later have to be dismissed if the worker's status isn't verified.
Randel Johnson, a vice president for the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, said requiring all federal contractors to participate in E-Verify "raises many unnecessary practical problems which will make ever more complex an already overly complicated federal procurement system."
D.A. King, president of the anti-immigration group known as the Dustin Inman Society in Marietta, Ga., dismisses such criticism.
"This program not only ought to be renewed by the Congress, but it ought to be mandated for all employers," he said. "Every employer should be happy to comply with the law and be sure that they have hired lawful workers."
Mr. King said E-Verify is essential for compliance of public employers and state contractors under laws in Georgia and some other states.
Growing use
Arizona and Mississippi have laws requiring all employers in the state to use E-Verify, and Georgia, Minnesota, Oklahoma, North Carolina, Rhode Island and Utah require some employers to use the program.
The Georgia Security and Immigration Compliance Act, which went into effect last year, requires employers that have state contracts to use E-Verify. The law now requires E-Verify usage only for state contractors with 100 or more employees, but after July 1, 2009, it will include all state contractors.
Critics argue E-Verify is a flawed system that has high error rates and could have great consequences for legal workers and U.S. citizens.
The Department of Homeland Security and the Social Security Administration databases have errors, said Michele Waslin, senior policy analyst with the Immigration Policy Center, a research institution dedicated to studying the contributions immigrants have made to America.
"Sometimes if (the employer) doesn't get a confirmation back, they don't tell the person," Dr. Waslin said. "In some cases they just fire the person without giving them the chance to fix that problem. There is certainly a possibility of discrimination and misusing the system."
In a December 2006 report, the inspector general of the Social Security Administration estimated that 17.8 million, or 4.1 percent, of the agency's 435 million individual records contained discrepancies that could result in a no-match letter being sent to a legally authorized worker. Of those records with errors, 12.7 million belonged to native-born Americans, records show.
If these error rates were not fixed before a mandatory Electronic Employment Eligibility Verification System was implemented, they could result in a minimum of 11,000 workers per day being flagged as ineligible for employment, according to the Cato Institute, a nonprofit public policy research foundation in Washington, D.C.
Officials with local personnel agencies using the system for new hires say they are not experiencing such problems.
"It's been very easy for us to work with and quite user friendly," said David Crisp, vice president for Olsten Staffing Services in Chattanooga. "Once the word gets out that you are using the system, very few people come to you who might have a problem with their immigration status."

The use of the well functioning E-Verify will reduce crime of all types and most importantly, protect our population both citizens and immigrants. To the illegal aliens and unscrupulous employers who are bellyaching... hire legal or ante up for some fine and time.
WOO HOO! The so called reporter would like people to believe this is an unpopular move, but that's not true! LEGAL citizens are pleased to read this.
"To the illegal aliens and unscrupulous employers who are bellyaching... hire legal or ante up for some fine and time." PERFECT! The only whiners are the illegals and the employers who benefit from hiring them! Oh yeah, and probably the ACLU and LaRaza... notoriously Anti American organizations who "profess" to speak for us.
"In a December 2006 report, ...." Get with the "program" Ms. Trevizo. Just last month it was reported there is only a 1% - 3% error rate! Anyone who can't produce valid documents needs to stay unemployed! How hard is it to find YOUR birth certificate? Just someone else who is most likely profiting from illegal invaders. Oh yea, newspapers need such articles to boost sales.
CHUCK BALDWIN-www.baldwin2008.com. "There will be no "path to citizenship" given to any illegal alien. That means no amnesty. Not in any shape, manner, or form. I would not allow tax dollars to be used to pay for illegal aliens' education, social services, or medical care. As President, I would end birthright citizenship for illegal aliens. There would be no "anchor babies" during my administration.' "A Baldwin Administration will support our U.S. Border Patrol, not with meaningless words, but with action. And I guarantee you this: The day before my inauguration as President will be the last day the that Mr. Ramos and Mr. Campean will have to spend in prison. They will be released from prison on the first day that I that I am President and be returned to their jobs with the US Border Patrol if they still want them. Their persecution by the Bush Administration has been a disgrace and a nightmare for these gentlemen and their families. The nightmare ends the day I become President!"
<p>www.numbersusa.com -fax congress free! www.alipac.us www.fairus.org www.capwiz.com/caps/home/ -fax congress free!. The legality of the so-called "anchor baby" is defined in the Constitution itself; it is called a "natural born citizen" and is automatically and irrevocably granted citizenship.
It takes an Amendment to the Constitution ratified by two-thirds of the States to change that little item, not a Presidential edict.
Not that I like the "Anchor Baby" thing...but there it is. They are natural-born citizens just like the rest of us born here.
E-Verify is a good thing.
Pity these comments so badly criticize the TimesFreePress reporting. They virtually guarantee its removal from this forum no later than tomorrow morn, possibly this afternoon.
Stories of the new VW plant remain here forever [which is a good thing] but anything else showing opposition to illegal aliens has a one-day half-life.
[Will VW be required to use E-Verify to ensure only legal workers are hired?? Or will they voluntarily use it??]

This reporter does not hide her own ideas very well....we are guessing that she donates to La Raza.
I am a long time Dustin Inman Society supporter. We are not "anti-immigration" as this hack writes, but rather pro border security and anti-ILLEGAL immigration. D.A. King has done a fine job of making this very understandable on the DIS Website ( WWW.THEDUSTININMANSOCIETY.ORG )
The slant here is all too obvious in the first paragraph when we read about "immigrant advocates" who are against use of the E-Verify program. Yeah..."immigrant advocates", the same people who brought us the marches for amnesty and the ACLU/La Raza/MALDEF opposition to any enforcement of our immigration laws.
I may be ill after reading this muck. Does this Trevizo person have an editor who is professional and/or awake?
I can't wait to see what D.A. writes to these characters.
Ms. Trevizo: You have written an overall well-balanced piece; you presented both sides of this contentious issue with little bias. This is quite unusual in today's Mainstream Media and is a fresh breath of air.
Whether we agree with the points of your article or not, you have done a great job in informing us of the ups and downs of the E-Verify system. You have given us enough information to speed further research if any are so inclined. Thank you.
I look forward to continuing balanced updates of your report on this topic. Obviously there is high interest here...
E Verify is a must to begin to weed out illegal aliens that are taking jobs that belong to American citizens and those who enter legally to the United States. They are lowering wages and burdening our institutions such as hospitals and schools. Any tool that will help to remove illegal aliens from our work force is a welcome addition to the laws already on the books.
Ask your City Council and County Commission to use E Verify. Ask them to use SAVE (Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements) to screen against illegal aliens accessing services and benefits that they are not entitled to receive. There is a photo option to check for fake documents available.

Lou Howard
Courtesy: UNCW Athletic Communications
Release: 09/30/2007
As a dominant lefthander for the Seahawks in the early 1960's, Lou Howard played a key role as Wilmington College dominated the national junior college baseball scene.
With Howard in the rotation, the Seahawks won the National Junior College Baseball Championship in 1961 and finished second in 1962. He went 5-1 and earned second-team All-American honors after the 1961 campaign and compiled a 4-3 mark and .312 batting average in 1962. Howard continued to succeed after transferring to Wake Forest. A two-time first-team All-Atlantic Coast Conference selection, he amassed an 18-6 career record and 2.62 career earned run average with the Demon Deacons. During Howard's stay, WFU posted 28-11 and 23-7 records on the diamond. Howard played briefly in the Pittsburgh Pirates organization before embarking on a teaching career. He built a 225-25 record in 25 seasons at Roland-Grise Junior High School in Wilmington and closed out his career with a five-year stint as pitching coach at Hoggard High School. |

State Treasury Dept.: Emergency manager remains an option for DetroitBy Associated Press
DETROIT (AP) — A state-appointed emergency financial manager remains an option for Detroit in the face of its growing budget problems, a spokesman for Michigan Treasurer Andy Dillon said Wednesday. Dillon met Detroit officials Wednesday to discuss "growing concerns ... about the city's near-term ability to meet its financial obligations and its long-term viability," said Treasury spokesman Terry Stanton. A consent agreement between Detroit and the state last year allowed the city to avoid the appointment of an emergency manager, but some worry that Mayor Dave Bing and the Detroit City Council aren't moving fast enough to enact financial reforms. The financial manager option "cannot be taken off the table" for Detroit, Stanton said of the state's largest city, which is deep in debt and has a budget deficit of more than $200 million. "As the treasurer has noted many times, delaying reforms and tough decisions only promises to make eventual solutions more difficult and painful," he said. Bing and his staffers have been poring over plans to make up millions of dollars in bond money the city has failed to get from the state. Unpaid furlough days are scheduled to resume in January, and Bing has said he would seek other cost savings to offset the loss of much-needed cash. The actions have become necessary after the City Council didn't approve a $300,000 contract required under Detroit's reform program with the state. City Council President Charles Pugh and Council President Pro Tem Gary Brown didn't immediately return messages seeking comment Wednesday. Bing spokesman Anthony Neely said he had no comment. Earlier Wednesday, during a news event at which Bing announced a new public safety initiative, the mayor said he expected that the "rest of this week and early into next week, we'll spend as much time as we can with City Council trying to move things forward so that we can get on the same page and work collaboratively for the city and its citizens to go forward." "The state has put forward some milestones that we have to reach in order for them to release the (bond) money," he said. "I don't think the state is bluffing. We need the money. And so we've got to get on the same page." Related Content:

Interview Details I applied online few times on separate occasions, went to the club and talked to one of the managers who happened to have an opening in her department (membership) she told me to apply for membership on the computer in that same club, she was very sweet and welcoming.
2 days after I got a call from her asking me to go for an interview which I attended, I was interviewed by her and another manager. she told me about the job and what to expect working in membership then the other manager started to ask me questions, they were about 5 questions. after I answered the membership manager asked if I had any questions and sent me to another personnel to sign some papers and go to a certain location to take the drug test, that was on Friday.
I got a call on Monday to attend an orientation, on the day that the orientation was supposed to take place on I got a call 45 before the orientation time telling me the manager who is supposed to conduct the orientation is sick and that he will call next week to reschedule, never got a call so I called the week after to know what's happening (so I won't wait wasting time and continue looking for a job). they apologized and told me he's on vacation and will be back next week and told me to call on Monday.

Interview Question – there wasn't any, the pharmacy manager said that this was his first interview because the store manager was supposed to do this but was not available, so there was no difficult questions. Answer Question
Negotiation Details – I wasn't in much of a position to bargain, I needed a job. It was a beginning hourly at $10 and I needed anything. The only thing is that I was hired full time, but after almost 2 weeks (which was considered a training period) I was cut 2-3 hours, just enough to make me part time, so I had wait an entire year for health insurance.

Average Interview
I applied online and the process took 3 weeks - interviewed at Sam's Club in January 2014.
Interview Details The hiring process for Sam's Club is very long. It takes about 3 weeks total. There are 3 interviews before you get hired, but if you get past the first 2 then you basically have the job. The questions are mostly behavioral questions, so study up on those because there are A LOT of them. At my second AND third interviews, I had to "sell" products and/or memberships to management. Don't get too nervous because they like it if you try, even if you think you can't sell.
The best advice I could give to someone who has an interview there is to BE PREPARED!
Interview Question – Name a time when you had to deal with a difficult customer. What policies/tools did you use and how did you solve the problem? View Answer
Negotiation Details – There is no negotiation. They won't offer you a position unless they like your availability. Your pay is based on a computer system and experience, so you can't negotiate it, but they pay above minimum wage.
Would you like us to review something? Please describe the problem with this {0} and we will look into it.
Sorry, but your feedback didn't make it to the team. Your input is valuable to us – would you mind trying again?
The difficulty rating is the average interview difficulty rating across all interview candidates.
The interview experience is the percentage of all interview candidates who said that their interview experience was positive, neutral or negative.
Your response will be removed from the review – this cannot be undone.

HARTFORD, Conn. (WTNH)-- Folks across Connecticut impacted by gun violence will continue to voice their concerns and recommendations to state lawmakers.
They shared their experiences on Sunday afternoon, at the State Legislative office building. They also announced their plans to testify at the Gun Violence Prevention Working Group.
Southbury native Stephen Barton will testify Monday. He was shot multiple times during the Colorado movie theater shooting last summer.
Barton and other Connecticut residents impacted by gun violence are calling for strict background checks and a ban on assault weapons like the ones used in the Sandy Hook and Aurora shootings.
"You know, if not for all the scars on my body, sometimes I wonder if I even believe that something so horrific could happen to me and my friends. I'm really hopeful that these sorts of events will spur people to action that is long over due," said Barton.
The legislature's gun violence prevention task force held its first hearing Friday.
The group will testify on Monday.

Last Tuesday proved to be another special holiday moment as we had our annual holiday party with the Denver Rescue Mission Crossing facility. We adopted every room currently occupied at the Crossing and approximately 40 families were treated to an old fashioned Christmas experience–gifts, dinner and cheer!!!
My favorite moment of the evening came when a young child about 3 yrs. old all dressed up in a Christmas sweater vest was so taken with the excitment that he literally began jumping up and down with joy–to see the holiday spirit through the eyes of a child is something every adult should make a point of doing each and every year. That is where true inspiration is born.
Our players were very gracious spreading holiday cheer (many sporting Santa hats) and I was really proud of all of them. Champ Bailey hosted this year as he has become a regular visitor and supporter of the Crossing facility. He was joined by Ring of Fame member Billy Thompson and fellow teammates Andre Hall, Hamza Abdullah, Glenn Martinez, Elvis Dumervil, Nate Jackson, Daniel Graham, Louis Green, and Chad Mustard (doing double time in the community last week as he was also at Dick's Sporting Goods the night before for the annual Shop With A Bronco program).
Speaking of Chad, we are proud to recognize him with our monthly Denver Broncos Community Champion of the Month award for December as he has been out and about doing good work all over the metro area.
Back to the Crossing party, each family was gifted with a wonderful bag of holiday goodies including a fleece Broncos blanket to keep the winter chill at bay, certificates for both Target and King Soopers, holiday candy and a Broncos team picture. I do think for the kids, though, the highlight was mingling with our players and watching the Grinch in the Broncos Youth Center.
While the movie was playing, the parents got a much needed break and peacefully enjoyed a traditional holiday meal of turkey with all the trimmings: stuffing and mashed potatoes and decadent holiday pies complete with cider and cocoa…we love to work with Epicurean Catering each year on this party as they really do provide some special touches for the families.
Overall, it was just a really special evening and all of us in our office were happy to start off our holiday season in this fashion with so many wonderful families and the very kind and gracious folks at the Denver Rescue Mission.
Have a great week in Broncos Country…

Perry described the milestone perfume as 'a natural extension of who I am as a woman,' and then proceeded to dress like a cat for every press opportunity.

Fire Station 12 receives 'green' endorsement
Henrico County's Fire Station 12 recently received LEED Gold certification from the U.S. Green Building Council in recognition of extensive energy-saving measures incorporated into its renovation and expansion. The fire station is Henrico's second general government facility to receive LEED certification and the first to be recognized at the Gold level — the second highest possible — under a policy backed by the Board of Supervisors in January 2010. The fire station reopened in July 2011 following a $1.86 million renovation and expansion. The project satisfied LEED standards by reusing an existing building; recycling more than 30 tons of wood, brick, metal and other materials; and incorporating other energy-saving features. Those include low flow toilets and sinks, high-efficiency washing machines and a hybrid heating and air-conditioning system that minimizes energy use. The fire station also has high-efficiency windows and skylights that provide ample natural light and a white roof that reflects heat to reduce cooling costs. LEED, which stands for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, establishes a benchmark for the design, construction and operation of "green" buildings. It balances some increased costs for design and construction against greater long-term savings from more efficient use of water and energy and other benefits, such as improved air quality. Fire Station 12, at 3808 West End Drive, first opened in 1974. Its renovation and expansion increased the building's size from 6,700 to 10,550 square feet and provided an extended two-bay drive-through garage that accommodates a ladder truck, engine, ambulance and vehicle for the emergency medical services battalion chief. The fire station also has a shop and storage room and is equipped with an emergency generator capable of powering the station for three days without refueling. The fire station is the second Henrico general government building to qualify for LEED certification. In May, the Glen Allen Branch Library was recognized at the Silver level.

Khumba-ya? Not quite
But animated South African film has its moments
You might have seen something called Khumba while clicking through a Redbox recently (or perhaps it was nestled in some hidden corner of a DVD sale shelf). And chances are, you passed it by without much of a thought. Makes sense; that goggle-eyed cartoon zebra on the cover (a zebra that's dangerously close to becoming Madagascar copyright infringement) doesn't inspire much confidence.
But when Khumba starts up, it looks nothing like you'd expect. The camera gazes across the savannah and the soundtrack swells with triumphant South African vocals. > Read more.

Abstract emotion
Abstract paintings of Inge Strack (pictured) are on display through March 9 at the Gumenick Family Gallery at The Cultural Arts Center at Glen Allen. Strack, a Chestefield painter of German origin, often paints in bold colors with a deep sense of emotion, focusing on brushstrokes, texture and form to find a balance. Strack's painting is routed in the European tradition of expressionism but has found its own, unique language in following the American dream.
"I am not attempting to abstract the physical world," she said. "I draw my subject matter from inside of myself hoping to create a constant conversation between the viewer and the painting, especially since abstracts do not seem to answer but ask." > Read more.

These ultra-low temperature freezers maintain internal temperatures as low as -86°C (-123°F) at an ambient temperature of +30°C (86°F). They are ideally suited for use in hospitals and laboratories, in long-term preservation and storage of blood, specimens and components and in testing of various types.
Panasonic produces several models of ultra-low temperature freezers that can achieve and maintain refrigeration down to -86°C (-123°F) at an ambient temperature of 30°C (85°F) Our wide selection and variety of sizes and refrigeration capacities are suitable for uses such as long-term preservation, testing of various types and frozen storage.
In the process of solving various technical problems to achieve and maintain ultra-low temperature, Panasonic designed a compressor for ultra-low temperature use.
In ultra-low temperature freezers, effective insulation is critical since the temperature difference between the outside and the inner compartment can be as high as 115°C.
The temperature inside the freezer can be set and monitored easily by means of an accurate microprocessor temperature control with digital display. The thermostat utilizes a platinum resistor sensor that is precise and extremely durable.
In case of power failure or an irregular rise in temperature, a rechargeable, battery-operated indicator lamp and alarm will be activated.
Chest-type freezers can maintain relatively stable inner temperatures. Moreover, their low-profile design makes the placement and removal of contents very convenient.

Born on June 28, 1577, Flemish artist Peter Paul Rubens was one of the most celebrated and prolific artists in Europe during his lifetime as well as the entire Baroque era. His patrons included royalty and churches, and his art depicted subjects from religion, history and mythology. Known for such works as "The Descent from the Cross," "Wolf and Fox Hunt," "Peace and War," "Self-Portrait with Helena and Peter Paul" and "The Garden of Love,
"My talent is such that no undertaking, however vast in size or diversified in subject, has ever surpassed my courage."
" Rubens's style combined a knowledge of Renaissance classicism with lush brushwork and a lively realism. He died in 1640.
Formative Years
Peter Paul Rubens was born on June 28, 1577, in the town of Siegen in Westphalia (now Germany), one of seven children of a prosperous lawyer and his cultured wife. Following his father's death in 1576, the family moved to Antwerp in the Spanish Netherlands (now Belgium), where the young Rubens received an education and artistic training. He served as an apprentice to several established artists, and was admitted into Antwerp's professional guild for painters in 1598.
Early Career and Travels
In 1600, Rubens traveled to Italy, where he viewed the art of such Renaissance masters as Titian and Tintoretto in Venice, and Raphael and Michelangelo in Rome. He soon found an employer, Vincenzo I Gonzaga, duke of Mantua, who commissioned him to paint portraits and sponsored his travels. Rubens was sent by Vincenzo to Spain, to the city of Genoa in Italy, and then again to Rome. A gifted businessman as well as a highly talented artist, Rubens began to receive commissions to paint religious works for churches and portraits for private clients.
Success in Antwerp
Rubens returned home to Antwerp in 1608. There he married Isabella Brant and established his own studio with a staff of assistants. He was appointed court painter to Archduke Albert and Archduchess Isabella, who governed the Southern Netherlands on behalf of Spain. In a time of social and economic recovery after war, Antwerp's affluent merchants were building their private art collections and local churches were being refurbished with new art. Rubens received a prestigious commission to paint two large religious works, "The Raising of the Cross" and "The Descent from the Cross," for Antwerp Cathedral between 1610 and 1614. In addition to many projects for Roman Catholic churches, Rubens also created paintings with historical and mythological scenes during these years, as well as hunting scenes like "Wolf and Fox Hunt" (circa 1615-21).
Rubens became known as "the prince of painters and the painter of princes" during his career, due to his frequent work for royal clients. He produced a tapestry cycle for Louis XIII of France (1622-25), a series of 21 large canvases glorifying the life and reign of Marie de Medici of France (1622-25) and the allegorical "Peace and War" for Charles I of England (1629-30).
Later Career
Following the death of his wife, Isabella, in 1626, Rubens traveled for several years, combining his artistic career with diplomatic visits to Spain and England on behalf of the Netherlands.

The United States Army War College (USAWC) is a United States Army institution in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, on the 500 acre (2 km²) campus of the historic Carlisle Barracks. It provides graduate level instruction to senior military officers and civilians to prepare them for senior leadership assignments and responsibilities. Each year, a number of Army colonels and lieutenant colonels are considered by a board for admission.[3] Approximately 800[2] students attend at any one time, half in a two-year-long distance learning program, and the other half in an on-campus full-time resident program lasting ten months. Upon completion, the college grants its graduates a master's degree in Strategic Studies.
Army applicants must have already completed the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College, the required Professional Military Education for officers in the rank of major. While the Army handpicks most of the students who participate in the residential program, the student body always includes officers from the other military branches, civilians from agencies like the Department of Defense, State Department, and National Security Agency, and officers from foreign countries. For example, the residential Class of 2004 included 268 officers from the five branches of the United States Armed Forces (from the active and reserve components), 30 senior civilian employees of the federal government, and 42 foreign military officers. Majors with the specialty of Function Area 59, Strategist, formerly Strategic Plans and Policy, also attend their qualification course, the Basic Strategic Arts Program (BSAP), at the college.
The Army War College is one of the three senior service colleges of the U.S. Department of Defense, joined by the Naval War College for the U.S. Navy and Air War College for the U.S. Air Force. The Army War College is a split-functional institution. While a great deal of emphasis is placed on research, students are also instructed in leadership, strategy, and joint-service/international operations.
According to U.S. Army regulation 10–44, the mission of the War College is "To prepare selected military, civilian, and international leaders for the responsibilities of strategic leadership; educate current and future leaders on the development and employment of landpower in a joint, multinational and interagency environment; conduct research and publish on national security and military strategy; and engage in activities in support of the Army's strategic communication efforts."
Established from the principles learned in the Spanish-American War, the College was founded by Secretary of War, Elihu Root, and formally established by General Order 155 on 27 November 1901. Washington Barracks — now called Fort Lesley J. McNair — in Washington, D.C. was chosen as the site. Theodore Roosevelt attended the Masonic laying of the cornerstone of Roosevelt Hall on 21 February 1903.
The first president of the Army War College was Major General Samuel B. M. Young[4] in July 1902 and the first students attended the College in 1904. The College remained at Washington Barracks until the 1940s, when it was closed due to World War II. It reopened in 1950 at Fort Leavenworth, and moved one year later to its present location.
Basic Strategic Art Program[edit]
The Basic Strategic Art Program is one of the academic programs taught at the U.S. Army War College. When the program was founded in 2003, its purpose was to provide those officers who had been newly designated into Functional Area 59 (Strategist, formerly Strategic Plans & Policy) an introduction to strategy and to the unique skills, knowledge, and attributes needed as a foundation for their progressive development as army strategists. FA 59 officers have deployed to combat since the onset of the Global War on Terror in 2001. Since then, graduates of this program served in key positions in Iraq, Afghanistan, all combatant commands, and at the Pentagon.
Center for Strategic Leadership[edit]
The Center for Strategic Leadership and Development (CSLD) areas of emphasis are experiential education, Senior Leader education, support to Army Senior Leader research, and support to both US Army War College (USAWC) and Army Senior Leader strategic communication efforts. CSL's professional staff and Collins Hall facility host, support, develop, and conduct world-class events (workshops, symposia, conferences, games, and exercises) focused on a broad range of strategic leadership and national security issues and concepts in support of the USAWC, the Army, and the Interagency and Joint Communities.
Peacekeeping and Stability Operations Institute[edit]
The Peacekeeping and Stability Operations Institute (PKSOI) is located at the War College. The institute's mission is to serve as the U.S. Military's Center of Excellence for Stability and Peace Operations at the strategic and operational levels in order to improve military, civilian agency, international, and multinational capabilities and execution.
PKSOI Stability Operations Lessons Learned Information Management System (SOLLIMS)[edit]
SOLLIMS is PKSOI's repository for Observations, Issues and Lessons (Best Practices) emerging from the Stability Operations community. SOLLIMS provides the ability to capture Lessons Learned data from ongoing Exercises, Experiments and real-world SSTR missions and operations. Access to SOLLIMS is provided to OSD, USG agencies, and other NGO, IO and multi-national organizations involved in SSTR operations across the globe.

I am in the market for an external battery pack for my iDevices. I have both an iPhone 4S and an iPad (first-gen). In a perfect world, I would like a battery pack with the following qualities:
- Enough juice to charge the iPad fully plus enough juice to charge the iPhone a couple of times as well.
- At least two USB ports, so that I could charge both the iPhone and the iPad at the same time.
- 2.1 Kilovolt/10 Amp output, on at least one of its USB ports, so that it can actually charge the iPad.
As long as it's not larger than the iPad, size won't be much of an issue.
- How many mAh do I need?
- Does anyone have any suggestions as to specific products?
- Does anyone have any information on products to avoid?
I think that's about all I can think of. Please help me out. Thanks in advance for any and all assistance.
