Rwanda is a small, landlocked country with a population density that is among the highest in Africa. Rwanda is one of the world's poorest countries but much has changed since the 1994 genocide that killed over 800,000 people.
Rwanda has made remarkable progress in developing national and local government institutions, maintaining security, promoting reconciliation and strengthening the justice system.
Significant chronic vulnerability in the Sahel has taken hold as a result of a combination of factors, including poverty, marginalization, weak governance, low rainfall, population pressure and high population growth, food price volatility, and climate variability.
In 2011, irregular rainfall combined with civil conflict, high food prices and shocks such as locust infestation rendered more than 18 million people food insecure, according to FAO.
In an effort to move beyond just addressing the symptoms of these factors, the Sahel Joint Planning Cell (JPC) was formed to bring together the expertise of both USAID humanitarian assistance and development assistance actors in finding innovative and collaborative ways to build resilience among vulnerable populations in the Sahel.
USAID's programs are supporting Serbia's vision to be democratic, prosperous and fully integrated into Euro-Atlantic institutions. USAID is helping Serbia enact reforms for the country to complete its economic and democratic transition into the European Union (EU) and other international institutions.
Since the end of the civil war in 2002, Sierra Leone has been steadily rebuilding physical, social and health infrastructure. However, the challenges of endemic corruption, high youth unemployment, inadequate services, and widespread poverty are still critical impediments to progress.
Since 1991, Somalia has essentially been a collapsed state. The social costs of war have been enormous, leaving Somalia with some of the lowest human development indicators in the world. In 2011 and 2012, the worst drought that East Africa has seen in 60 years led to famine in southern Somalia, uprooting thousands of families and putting millions at severe risk. Food security has improved, largely driven by humanitarian assistance.
USAID is working to increase stability and reduce the appeal of extremism in Somalia through programming that fosters good governance, promotes economic recovery and growth, offers youth skills training, and works to increase social cohesion through improved community with government relationships. Our programs are planned and carried out with local partners in the context of Somali culture and values.
Almost two decades after the end of apartheid, the South African Government continues to uphold the rights of its citizens and to invest heavily in the wellbeing of its people. South Africa plays a key economic and political role on the continent, but faces many challenges, including unemployment, HIV/AIDS, crime and corruption.
In January 2011, the southern Sudanese voted overwhelmingly to secede, and on July 9, 2011, the Republic of South Sudan became an independent nation. As South Sudan embarks on nationhood, USAID seeks to help make the new country increasingly stable while helping the government deliver basic services to citizens, provide effective, inclusive and accountable governance, diversify the economy, and combat poverty.

While Southern Africa has seen significant economic growth achievements, the overall number of people living in poverty has grown over the past two decades. Botswana, Lesotho, Namibia, and South Africa have some of the highest levels of income inequality in the world. Since 1995, USAID has maintained a regional program in Southern Africa that has evolved over time to address the changing development challenges of the sub-region. Our programs increase trade and strengthen regional economic ties, address the HIV/AIDS crisis, mitigate food insecurity, and support democratic processes.
Following decades of conflict and a devastating tsunami, Sri Lanka is in a period of transition that will determine the sustainability of the country's peace for years to come. In the former conflict areas of the North and East, the main focus is rebuilding communities and livelihoods. The United States is a strong supporter of reconciliation and long-term stability in Sri Lanka, an island nation located along major maritime trade routes in the Indian Ocean.
USAID remains committed to playing a role in enhancing the viability and stability of Sudan as the country embarks on a new era. Conflict mitigation will be an integral component of USAID's efforts, as progress in this area remains a chief U.S. foreign policy priority, particularly in Darfur and the Three Areas of Abyei, Blue Nile and Southern Kordofan. USAID will continue to build on the established coordination between diplomacy and development efforts in Sudan to address outstanding provisions of the 2005 Comprehensive Peace Agreement that ended 22 years of north-south civil war. The Agency also will continue its support for democratic development in Sudan, as well as openings for a transition from emergency assistance to development assistance where conditions allow.
Swaziland is a small country almost completely surrounded by South Africa. Due in large part to its geographic position, Swaziland's economy is heavily dependent upon trade with South Africa. The country has a relatively high per capita income, but nearly 70 percent of the population lives in poverty. Most high-level economic activity is conducted by non-Africans living in Swaziland. Primary education is widespread among boys and girls. The government's transition from absolute to constitutional monarchy has been slow and remains incomplete.
Nearly 11 million people in Syria are in need of humanitarian assistance, and 3 million people have fled to neighboring countries. The United States, through USAID and the Department of State, continues to work through all possible channels to deliver aid to those in need in Syria, including through the United Nations, international and non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and local Syrian organizations.
Таджикистан, центрально-азиатская страна, которая имеет прозрачную границу с Афганистаном протяженностью 1287 км, может выступать в качестве торгового канала между данным регионом и странами Южной Азии. По мере вывода американских войск из Афганистана, Таджикистан будет играть все более важную роль в процессе трансформации Афганистана в более стабильного и надежного соседа, с которым можно наладить отношения. Соединенные Штаты сотрудничают с Таджикистаном с целью сохранения продуктивных партнерских отношений, что может оказать благотворное влияние на благосостояние региона.
U.S. assistance supports Tanzania's national development goal to build public and private capacity to foster a healthier, prosperous and secure nation through accountable, democratic government that responds effectively to the needs of its citizens.
Since 1832, the United States and Thailand have maintained a strong relationship. Through its assistance programs, USAID has built a solid foundation of partnership in development with the Royal Thai Government.
Timor-Leste is one of the world's newest countries and also one of the poorest. This small, half-island nation is home to a young and culturally diverse population of just over 1 million. In its pivotal Southeast Asia location between Indonesia and Australia, Timor-Leste is already playing an important role in regional and global organizations. It currently holds the chair of the g7+ Group of Fragile and Conflict-Affected States, helping to lead the way to more effective engagement between developed and developing countries.
The United States strongly supports the Tunisian people as they lay the foundation for a future of economic prosperity that empowers a new generation, strengthens civil society and solidifies the foundation of democracy.
Tunisians have charted their own political transition, and USAID has answered Tunisian requests for support for economic growth, good governance, and expanded opportunities—areas that are interlinked in this transition environment.
Sharing long borders with Afghanistan and Iran in Central Asia, and serving as a key link to the South Asian subcontinent, Turkmenistan plays a critical role in advancing regional integration and stability. The country's large oil and gas reserves also make it a pivotal supplier for regional and world markets. As the former Soviet Republic emerges from decades of isolation, the United States supports Turkmenistan in its efforts to foster a more open and integrated society.
USAID's wide-ranging work in Uganda supports U.S. policy objectives in peace and security, democracy and governance, health and education, economic growth, and humanitarian assistance. USAID implements three major U.S. presidential initiatives in Uganda: Feed the Future, the Global Health Initiative and the Global Climate Change Initiative.

PEORIA, Ariz. – The Seattle Mariners
allowed five runs in the sixth inning in a 10-5 loss to the Cleveland Indians
Saturday afternoon in Cactus League play at Peoria Stadium. The Mariners have
still won 7 of their last 9 Cactus League games, and with an 18-9 record trail
only the Kansas City Royals (20) for the most spring wins.
The Mariners and Indians combined for 15 runs on 34 hits,
including 16 hits by Seattle to tie a spring high. The Mariners first four
batters – Michael Saunders (2x5, R), Robert Andino (2x4, 2 R, BB), Raul Ibanez (3x4, R, HR, 3 RBI), Justin Smoak (3x5, 2 2B, RBI) – combined to go 10-for-18
with 4 runs scored, 2 doubles, 1 home run and 4 RBI. Designated hitter Kelly Shoppach recorded the Mariners other multi-hit game,
going 2-for-5 with a double.
Mariners starting pitcher Blake Beavan recorded the loss, allowing 16 hits and 9 runs
(8 ER) over 6.1 innings, allowing two home runs. The right-hander struck out
three and did not walk a batter. Relievers Stephen Kohlscheen (0.2 IP), Danny Farquhar (1.0 IP),Charlie Furbush (1.0 IP) combined to hold the Indians
scoreless over 2.2 inning, before Tom Wilhelmsen allowed a run in the 9th inning.
Raul Ibañez tied the game
4-4 in 5th with a one-out, two-run home run off Scott Kazmir. It was his
fourth home run of the spring. It also marked the 48th longball hit by the
Mariners, second-most in franchise history during spring play. Kyle Seager gave the Mariners a 5-4 lead with a triple to
right-center as part of a 3-run 5th, before relinquishing the lead with a
five-run top of the 6th inning.
Catcher Jesus Montero left the game in the
second inning with a head contusion after being hit on a follow through by
Indians shortstop Francisco Lindor. Minor league catcher Michael Dowd replaced Montero behind the plate for the
remainder of the game.
Seattle returns to Cactus League play tomorrow with a road game
vs. the Arizona Diamondbacks at Salt River Fields in Scottsdale. The game will
be broadcast on 710 ESPN Seattle and the Mariners Radio Network. Left-hander Joe Saunders (1-0, 9.45) is
scheduled to appear in his fourth Cactus League game and third start against
Diamondbacks left-hander Wade Miley.

More than 800 historical artifacts have been returned to Afghanistan on Sunday with the help of the British Museum and the UK's Ministry of Defense, the BBC reported. The artifacts were handed over to the museum in Kabul.
Afghanistan's National Museum lost about 70 percent of its artifacts during the civil war in the early 1990s. These items were sold in the black market, AFP reported.
Some were intercepted after they were smuggled to U.K. by the border forces. Others were recovered by the Metropolitan Police in London, the BBC reported.
Some artifacts were acquired by donors on behalf the museum, AFP reported.
" God willing, we will never see days as bad as that again," said Fahim Rahimi, the chief curator of Afghanistan's National Museum about the stolen artifacts, the BBC reported.
"I am happy as an Afghan that all of these pieces that are so important to the history and culture of this country are back with us," Rahimi said, the BBC reported.

vacation rental description
If your getaway plans are torn between log cabin and lake, no worries! This charming cabin with room for six, just two minutes from picturesque Donnelly, might be the answer. Poised in a stand of trees on one of the three northern peninsulas that reach into beautiful Cascade Lake, Dawn Drive Family Cabin is an irresistible mix of mountain ambiance and lakefront living! Not only is a private community beach a quarter mile away, this cozy home is a doorway to the beauty, abundance, and recreational bonanza that comes with its proximity to Boise National Forest, the Payette River, and, of course, Cascade Lake.
Enveloped in warm hardwoods from floor to ceiling, Dawn Drive's spacious, integrated living space is the perfect place for family members to reconnect, away from work a day cares and obligations. On chilly nights, share family tales as you huddle around the unique, cast iron stove. Or, head upstairs to the loft with your DVDs where you can enjoy a flick from the comfort of one of six, squishy beanbag chairs. And don't forget your star charts! Through the telescope in the loft, you can enjoy a starry sky uncompromised by city lights. Evenings are also a good time to grab the marshmallows and head out to the fire pit for some campfire fun!
Meals are an important part of a vacation experience, and Dawn Drive's open kitchen makes them easy. Along with the stove, fridge, microwave and coffeemaker you'd expect in a great getaway like this, you'll find plenty of pots, pans, dinnerware, and cutlery. Whether it's pancakes or pot roast your chef is serving up, settle into the cushioned chairs around the dining table with room for six. Five more can cozy up to the counter on stools. Out on the big deck in back is a gas grill and outdoor furniture including comfortable, padded chairs. Weather permitting, test your barbecue skills and enjoy a meal out among the trees.
Dawn Drive has two bedrooms, one with a king bed, the other a queen. There's a crib for the baby and access to the upper deck where Mom or Dad can slip out for a breath of fresh air! Toddlers have a bed just right for them too, and the sofa folds out for that extra person. The main bathroom is charming and continues the rustic theme with rough hewn walls, molding, and cabin type fixtures. There's also a half bath.
With Cascade Lake on three sides, Dawn Drive is an anglers' boaters' paradise! In season, fish for salmon, steelhead, rainbow trout, bass, catfish or perch. Boat owners will find numerous places to launch. Plenty of opportunities on dry land as well Hikers have their choice of one day or multiple day trails in Ponderosa State Park or Cascade State Park (14 miles to the north) and Cascade State Park (16 miles to the south). There are 8 golf courses within 3 and 14 miles from the center of Donnelly. Osprey Meadows Resort (3 miles away) is the closest. Jug Mountain and McCall are within 9 miles. Cascade and Whitetail are the farthest at 14 miles.
Huckleberries thrive in the cool climate around Donnelly. Residents celebrate this abundant fruit with a festival, held the beginning of August when the plump berries are at their ripest. There's music in Donnelly too. Come to nearby, historic Roseberry in July and take part in the Music Festival and Arts and Crafts Faire. Whenever you come to Donnelly, consider this charming cabin, ideally situated to land and lake, and all the great things to do and see in the Cascade Lake area!

Deal With Conflict
Agree to Disagree and Avoid Blow-ups and Stay Sane in Your Marriage
Don't fool yourselves by thinking that you can or should agree on everything.
Gunnysacking is putting your old complaints and hurt feelings in a mental gunny sack and then dropping them on your spouse all at once. It's not fair.
Do You Ever Agree to Disagree?
Agreeing to disagree is an important communication skill used by many couples. Do you use this strategy?
How to Fight Fairly
The way a married couple fights can often tell psychologists more than what they fight about. If done correctly, conflict can strengthen a marriage.
Why You Should Apologize
An apology is more than saying "I'm sorry." An apology is an attempt to admit you made a mistake, hurt someone's feelings, did something really stupid, made a bad decision, etc.
How Do You Handle Conflict in Your Marriage?
Readers share their stories of how they handle conflict in their marriage. See submissions
Upset Spouse?
Face it. There are times when your spouse will be upset. Maybe your spouse will be upset with you. Maybe your spouse will be upset with someone or something that has nothing to do with you.

Happy Couples Fight
Peace at any price or fear of rocking the boat will hurt a marriage relationship. It's OK to fight! Just fight fair.
Why Do You Fight?
Every marriage relationship will have some fights. The key to not allowing these fights to create hostility in your marriage is to know what you are fighting about, to understand why you are fighting, to know how to fight fair, and to forgive one another.

Alex Jensen finished last season with 14 points.
So far this season, he has 14 assists. And eight goals.
The Plattsburgh State men's hockey junior put in some hard work during the offseason and shifted to the wing, and he's having the best season of his career while leading the team in scoring.
"He's been playing on a whole new level this year, compared to what I saw last year," sophomore Connor Gorman said. "Obviously he was great last year, but he's playing unbelievable this year. Quick, scoring, making plays."
The fourth-ranked Cardinals (15-2-2, 8-0-2 SUNYAC) may have to get by without Jensen this weekend when they visit Geneseo and Brockport for their final regular-season road trip. Jensen said he sprained his MCL at Potsdam last Friday, and by early this week he wasn't sure if he'd be able to play tonight.
Through 19 games, the Helsingborg, Sweden native has career highs in goals, assists and points, and his 22 points are six more than anyone else on the team.
Jensen credited his increased productivity to his work during the summer and to the play of his linemates.
"I was trying to get faster, so I worked on my explosiveness a little bit," he said. "And then I shot a lot of pucks. So it's paying off right now."
Coach Bob Emery said Jensen requested a move from center to left wing this season, and the coach put him with Dillan Fox and Mark Constantine, who are second and third, respectively, on the team's scoring list.
"Both Constantine and Dillan are pretty good guys at scoring goals," Jensen said. "Dillan has somehow an ability to just find an open area. And he'll be right there and just pop in a rebound. Or feed him a pass; you know he's going to score the goal.

Volusia County Sheriff's deputies responded to the Sonic Drive In at 1221 Saxon Blvd. in reference to an intoxicated man who was naked and had tried to bite the reporting party.
Contact was made with Adam Hunt, 40 of Westfield, Mass., who was in fact naked. Hunt refused to get dressed, and took an aggressive stance, balling his fists, while not complying with deputies' instructions.
He was placed under arrest for resisting without violence and taken to the Branch Jail on a $500 bond. The original reporting party was not located.

The Georgia Bureau of Investigation says they are sure someone has information that could solve the 2011 murder of a Blakely man. Now they are calling on that person to help bring a killer to justice.
In December 20-11, 43 year old Tracy Blocker, a father of six, was shot several times outside his home on East South Boulevard. Blocker made it back inside his home, and called for help, but later died. G-B-I and Early County Sheriff's Investigators have spent hundreds of hours on the murder investigation, but still have not made an arrest.
"All we need is one little key," said GBI Special Agent Mark Pro. "If we can get one small piece of the puzzle, then we can move forward with the investigation. And we're looking for the community to come together to provide us with some assistance in the case."
GBI investigators say they are not giving up on this murder case, and ask you to help them bring Tracy Blocker's killer to justice.
If you have any information, call the GBI at 229-777-2080 or the Early County Sheriff's Office at 229-723-3158.

(FOX 11 / AP / CNS) High surf and strong rip currents will pose a threat to beach users in Los Angeles, Santa Barbara and Orange Counties both in and out of the water this week, meteorologists said.
"A series of large long-period northwest swells generated by storms moving over the North-Central Pacific will bring high surf and strong rip currents to portions of the Orange and San Diego County coast though most of this week," according to the National Weather Service.
The agency issued a high surf advisory from 5 a.m. Monday to noon Wednesday, saying the first peak should arrive early Monday and a second swell will arrive late tonight and peak late Tuesday.
"A third and potentially larger swell is expected on Friday and Saturday, continuing the large surf and strong rip currents for Southern California beaches," the NWS advisory said.
The highest surf will be along exposed west facing beaches...especially from Manhattan Beach to Cabrillo Beach. Surf 4 to 6 feet with local sets to 8 feet across west facing beaches through tonight...building to 5 to 7 feet with local sets to 9 feet on Tuesday.
The agency said that by Wednesday morning, the surf will lower to 3 to 6 feet by Wednesday afternoon into Thursday.
An even more energetic westerly swell is expected to overspread the coastal waters later this week. As a result...high surf will likely return Friday into Saturday to all exposed west and northwest facing shores from San Luis Obispo County to Los Angeles County.
"High surf and strong rip currents will be dangerous for swimmers, especially those that are inexperienced," an NWS advisory said, noting large waves may also pose a threat to people standing on jetties, rocks or sea walls near the waters' edge.

Republican John McCuskey is holding on to an unofficial victory in Kanawha County.
The Kanawha County Commission met at 7 a.m. Nov. 13 as the Board of Canvassers to canvass the Nov. 6 general election.
The 35th district is represented by four delegates. McCuskey was unofficially declared the winner Nov. 6 over incumbent Democrat Bobbie Hatfield. McCuskey edged out the longtime legislator by 64 votes.
However, that margin narrowed after the canvass. Kanawha County officials declared McCuskey the winner by 41 votes, according to Kanawha County Manager Jennifer Sayre.
Other delegates elected to represent the 35th district are incumbent Democrat Doug Skaff, incumbent Republican Eric Nelson and Republican Suzette Raines.
Absentee ballots that were received by Election Day were counted and are included in the cumulative totals from election night results. Absentee ballots received at the voter's registration office between Election Day and the morning of the canvass were included in the canvass and the final cumulative official results.
According to state code, each county will declare its results once the canvass is completed. The election cannot be certified until 48 hours after the final county completes its canvass and declares its results.

New Side
Original Side
A fair to good (I�m describing both the quality of the sandstone and the routes here) sandstone crag with numerous single-pitch, well protected sport routes (from about 15-20 meters in length) ranging from 5.8 to 5.12a. Climbing here is year around, and even on winter days warmth can be had when climbing in the sun. During the rainy season (July/August), you may want to check when the last storm occurred before making the trip from anywhere but local. When this sandstone becomes wet, it is quite fragile. This means destroying climbs when they are wet. Local climbers ask that you wait about 48 hours following a heavy rainstorm before climbing.

After slow start, Eagles sweep in volleyball opener
BEEKMANTOWN — It's no secret that Beekmantown is the team to beat in Champlain Valley Athletic Conference volleyball this fall.
The Eagles, fresh off a 17-1 season, picked up right where they left off, sweeping defending Class C champion AuSable Valley, 25-23, 25-19 and 25-20 Thursday.
High School Sports Magazine
"AuSable, they're very smart," Beekmantown coach Shana Hileman said. "They've played a lot of ball; they play club ball. So these girls are used to seeing competition like us in the offseason. These are the types of games that we need to play."
Despite a three-game sweep, the Eagles didn't get out to the start they were looking for.
The Patriots jumped out to an 7-1 lead in the early going of game one.
"Our serve receive was struggling," Hileman said. "We're new to some of the lineup switches that we had. We're just trying to find that perfect lineup, and it takes a couple weeks for us to gel. Hopefully after this weekend once we travel to Burnt Hills, we will find a lineup that will work."
Using libero Jordynne Ales to keep plays alive, Beekmantown went on a 24-16 run, winning the first game by two points.
Ales, who recently switched to the defensive-oriented position, finished with 10 points, two aces, one assist, one kill and 15 digs.
"I think that was nerves to be honest," Ales said. "We knew they were coming for us. We have a great team, though. We all have a positive attitude, and our team plays together really well. We have really strong team chemistry.
"I played defense for my club team as well, so it's just different because I'm on the right side, the middle and the outside. It's a little crazy, but as long as I keep my head straight, I'll be good."
In the second game, Hileman saw a better start, with the Eagles jumping out to a 10-4 advantage, forcing AuSable Valley coach Sandra Hoey to call timeout.
Hileman said Beekmantown's defensive approach was in midseason form, noting Ales, Grace Kelly and Mikaela Frechette as key contributors.
"Up until last year, I was always a defensive coach," Hileman said. "I was more of a defensive player my whole entire life, so from my standpoint, I've always focused on passing and defense first. If you don't have that, you don't have an offense. Right now, we have some very good offensive players because of our defense."
The Eagles held on to win game two 25-19.
After a 13-all tie in the third and final game, Beekmantown used its serving strength to its advantage, managing a 25-20 victory to score a sweep.
"Not many service mistakes," Hileman said. "Really, we tried to keep it less than five the whole game. I think we only missed four the whole match, which was good."
Emily Anderson paced the Eagles with 12 points on one ace, two assists, one kill and two digs, while Michaela LaFountain accumulated eight points, one block, two kills and three digs.
Noelle Miller led the Patriots with nine points, three aces, seven kills, six digs and three blocks, while Miranda Sheffer registered seven points, three aces, six kills, eight digs and seven assists in the loss.
Beekmantown travels to the Capital District region to play a tournament hosted by Burnt Hills of Section II this weekend.

Social media exploded on the scene, and initially was only a viable marketing opportunity for a few niches. But now with search engines also considering social indicators, and with Facebook and others integrated into every day life including mobile, social media is a massive part of your internet marketing picture.
Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, Pinterest, YouTube, LinkedIn: There are optimizations for each social media platform that must be done. We have researched and perform the best practices to get traffic and shares through all major social media platforms. Social media in conjunction with engaging content is as important as your link profile. You must be on all the major platforms and we can either handle this for you or guide your staff in best practices.
New social media sites break out fast and often, and we have always been ready to take advantage of them, with our fingers on the pulse. Pinterest was the latest, fast breaking new marketing platform. Still in its infancy, we had all clients up and running in the early stages, optimized for the most traffic and repins.
Your reputation is everything, and a handful of vocal unhappy customers can do quite a bit of damage, especially in this age of social media and online reviews.
Define your brand and set the tone on the web for your business. Brand building in general is going to offer some insurance against reputation management issues. Monitoring for issues, just raising the client's awareness when something arises, gives them the opportunity to deal with it in a timely fashion before a spiral effect occurs.
In situations where negative perceptions already exist, we have helped clients utilizing a variety of tactics (like threats and bribes). We'll find creative solutions for removing and minimizing the negatives, systematically solving the problems, replacing complaints with positive experiences from your many happy customers.

CATEGORIES Classics, Deals, Family Films, Movies, CinematicalIt seems that the time has come to take another stab at Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book. We've had some animated versions over the years -- including, of course, Disney's animated classic -- as well as a live action feature back in the '90s. Now Pathe and the BBC are coming together to create a pricier live action adaptation, one that currently has a $50 million price tag. The big endeavor will be helmed by John Downer, a BBC vet who directed the lion drama Pride, from a script by Richard Kurti and Bev Doyle.
Of course, the Kipling classic is all about anthropomorphic animals, so they will be talking, using the technique from Pride. According to Variety, Downer plans to shoot at a tiger reserve (Ranthambore) in India, and will combine that with footage of trained animals on jungle sets and in front of blue screens. Downer says: "My ambition is to use pioneering digital and wildlife filming techniques to portray one of the greatest stories of all time just as the author intended -- with real live talking animals inhabiting the jungle world of Kipling's India." Obviously, there's a lot to bring together to make it work, so while the film will start next month, it will take about two years to complete. Personally, I'm not big on talking animals unless they're animated or done with a nice Milo & Otis-type voiceover, although I'm sure that this project will be a big, successful hit. How about you? Live action, talking animals: yay or nay?

Investigative reporting: pay now or pay later?
Original post made by Gina Channell-Allen on Apr 26, 2009
Robert Rosenthal, a long-time reporter and editor with several well-respected and well-known newspapers, is now the executive director at the Center for Investigative Reporting. Rosenthal spoke recently about the disappearance of the "watchdog" role of newspapers and earlier this week spoke on PBS Online NewsHour, hosted by Jim Lehrer. about how loss of revenues will for the most part lead to the loss of investigative reporting.
Rosenthal said, in essence, it takes time and talent to produce investigative pieces. Unfortunately in most newsrooms today there is not enough time to allot to "projects" because there are newsholes to fill. And the talented journalists are often the highest paid and, therefore, the first to be laid off.
Here are two links, one from the above-mentioned interview and another from a recent piece on CBS Sunday Morning. I found them thought-provoking and somewhat disturbing. What are your thoughts?

By the way, I'm rereading "Atlas Shrugged" by Ayn Rand. Should this be required reading for everyone?
on Jun 22, 2009 at 3:42 pm
When I read your comments re:investigative reporting I immediately thought of a local incident that warrants thorough reporting yet is ignored by the Weekly,Times,etc.We are fortunate that homicides occur infrequently in Danville,consequently you would think that our Police Dept. would be anxious to conduct their investigation in a transparent and aggressive manner that would cause locals to feel secure in trusting public safety protection.I don't believe the lack of reporting is a money issue,it's just that the investigative work is difficult and time-consuming and editors don't support the effort.Mind you, this is a homicide that occurred in Jan.about which you have read nothing! The obvious first question is,"Why has noone been charged with this crime?"
on Nov 15, 2009 at 12:36 pm
Journalism is nearly dead in the US. The lack of insightful, unbiased reporting across the spectrum of TV and newspapers is appalling. This includes the NY Times, which is so far in the bag for Obama and the Democrats, and so rabidly anti-Bush and the Republicans, that it is incapable of providing unbiased, unfiltered news to the public and thus fails to fulfill journalism's role as the "5th estate", namely, to properly and truthfully inform the citizens so as to provide a counter-weight to the politicians and bureacrats. Hopefully Danville Express will rpovide a venue for honest reporting.
on Nov 16, 2009 at 10:59 am
I agree with Gina -- print journalism is in trouble because it can't compete on ad price (esp. classifieds) or speed with the web. And I think something is certainly lost in terms of the role of newspapers in muckraking and holding those-in-power to account. Since Investigations are the one thing that bloggers don't do well becuase of expense and other factors, maybe newspapers should focus on That niche?
As to whether the Times was fair to the Bushies, PTT, please remember that they are in the business of hard-bitten journalism. They've left the puff pieces you seek to those novelists and Creative Writing majors over at Faux News.

Lezyne Classic Drive Floor Pump $70.00
A present classic to preserve the future classic.
You know why this is called the Classic Floor Drive Pump. Lezyne has took its high pressure (aka road) design and built one up that strongly resembles the Silca Pista of old. Wood handle, steel barrel, steel piston, are all taken out of Silca's playbook.
But Lezyne also takes from its own playbook. The CNC-machined aluminum base, 2.5-inch oversized gauge, the 43-inch rubber hose, and the Flip and Speed Chucks.
The gauge reads to 160psi. The Flip Chuck is Lezyne's reversible Schrader/Presta valve head with a button for bleeding air. That button is called the ABS, Air Bleed System. The Speed Chuck is a great add-on for people who prefer slip-on pump chucks. It also sports a 90-degree angle, so it can fit in the valve port of disc wheels.
The Lezyne Classic Floor Dive Pump measures 5.9 x 7.9 x 25in (15 x 20 x 63.5 cm). The handle is 9.5in. The interior diameter of the barrel is 28mm, which means the pump has been optimized for high pressure applications. It has a claimed weight of 3.75lbs (1.7kg). The colors are Red and Silver.
- Varnished wood handle and smooth, CNC-machined alloy are built for the rigors of a lifetime of use
- Two-and-a-half-inch oversized pressure gauge remains easy to view, no matter how bad your eyes get

perfect pump for the hardcore unicyclist

- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I've been dreaming of getting one of these floor pumps for a while and finally pulled the trigger!
It's a pricey floor pump, but it's gorgeous looking and pumps like a champ.
I love Lezyne's flip chuck. It screws onto any schrader or presta valve without worries of cross threading or letting all of your hard pumped air out.
These also come with a needle, so I can keep my basket ball inflated and show my girlfriend who boss is around here.
(just kidding, she's 5'11 and was on the varsity team).
This 2.8x57cm shaft is no two pump chump!
If you're serious about inflating that tube to go float the river, or have a ton of beach balls that you want to blow up, your search ends here.

- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
This is my first floor pump, compared to others that I have used through friends I must say that my house may turn into the new fill up station because this pump rocks. The wood handles are absolutely fantastic and the pump in general is high quality. The hose is a good length. You can use this on both Presta and Schraeder valves.
Business end.
David Thiel
Member since
This is the presta end of the chuck. Look closely and you can see external and internal o-rings, as well as the threads inside...
Hose clips to base. Neat.
David Thiel
Member since
The hose clips into the base to keep things neat and tidy. Really nice feature.
Look at the hose. Just look at it.
David Thiel
Member since
Note the hose length. You can have your bike up on a repair stand and still inflate the tires. Really helpful!
Chuck detail
David Thiel
Member since
Here's a side view of the flip chuck. Once you use it, you won't want anything else.
-- small black dot bleeds air from the pump's hose, easing release
-- big black dot bleeds air from the tire (it's on the other side, not pictured.
-- chuck screws on both presta and schraeder valves
-- unscrew the chuck from the hose and flip it in five seconds to change valve types. Super easy.
-- Chuck is labeled for different valves so newbies can use your pump without ruining it or their stems
Gauge Detail
David Thiel
Member since
Goes to 160. Mine reads about 10psi heavier than actual.
Lezyne Pumps = Best
David Thiel
Member since
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Use it once and you'll understand why these pumps command -- and deserve -- the premium price.
The flip chuck screws on to the valve stems of your tubes --meaning a positive, leak free seal with no air lost during connection and disconnection. Once you use this type of chuck, you'll never go back.
The pressure gauge is hard to read at a distance, and mine comes about 10 heavier than actual pressure. But those are nits in an otherwise fantastic pump. Look no further.
Adding to the value: the pump is solidly built, with quality materials... and it looks great too.
Great pump
Troy Rutherford
Member since
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Finally broke down and bought a pump. easy to dismiss the value when you have an air compressor in the garage. Compared to most pumps I've used the flip chuck makes inflating tires to the correct pressure a breeze, no more fumbling trying to flip the lever on an air chuck and remove quickly without loosing air.
Be carefull and remember there is a pressure relief for the hose before trying to remove the flip chuck. only a problem with removable valve cores. only did it twice before figuring out what I had done.

I've been stuck with hand pumps all summer so it's a relief to finally have a proper floor pump to efficiently fill my mountain bike's tires. The pump looks great (I love the wood handle) and is well constructed. The screw-able Flip Chuck valve head supports both Schrader and Presta. It's worth the extra time for the seal it provides. If that's not your style, the Speed Chuck attachment replicates slip-on functionality, adds a right angle, is quick, and works well. As mentioned by others, the gauge goes up to 160 psi, even if hard to read from a distance. All around great pump, nothing to complain about over here.
Great Pump
R.J. Gardner
Member since
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
This guy does everything I wanted it to and then some. The screw on tip, though a bit more time consuming, is really awesome and really dials in specific PSI's. Pumps up real high, and comes with different tip attachments for presta and shrader valves. Super sweet looking and so far good and durable too.

- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Fantastic quality and accurate (compared to an older gauge). It looks good and works. Not more I can ask for.
Lezyne Classic...it's a classic
Brett Beal
Member since
This is a great pump! I love how it actually screws on to the Presta valves. When putting in the 120-140 PSI it creates a great seal and makes sure that the air goes straight into the tube. It also prevents the valve from being bent. Very efficient and well made pump.
Wood Grain Grippin'
Ryan Hosfelt
Member since
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Inflates my tires to 140psi, build quality is solid (esp. the aluminum base), and the wood grain handle is flossy. SO FLOSSY! Attaching the pump valve to the tire valve is more time consuming than your average pump, but the fit is also more secure... So none of your precious psis will escape when you detach. Speed chuck is included for quick attach/detach (for those in a hurry). Overall, this is the nicest floor pump I've used or owned.
Really nice pump
Member since
The nicest thing about this pump is it just works great. The connection on presta valves is simple and works without bending the valves like the clamp on style. Additionally this pump just looks sharp nice base and great finish ( mines black), along with the dark wood handle, it really just looks nice. I've only had it a couple of days but I deflated and re-inflated tires about 10 times just to test it, and it works as advertised. I'll re-submit if it doesn't last but just looking at the workmanship and attention to detail I don't anticipate any issues. I forgot to mention the hose is nice an long so I can inflate the tires even after I put them on the car rack
Solid construction, hoping for long life
David Platt
Member since
I'm coming off a Topeak pump that last almost ten years. This Lezyne is much better constructed with high quality parts and a nice hefty feel. The Flip Chuck is a great easy to use feature that comes in really handy when you have a lot of bikes - I skip the speed chuck but it worked just fine the few days I had it on there. The dial is a little hard to read all the way down on the floor with tiny letters, but a paint pen mark on the preferred setting sis the way to go anyway. Moves a high volume of air and gets tires ready to roll in a hurry - even the 2.35 wide guys!
Great quality pump
Member since
I bought this pump to use with my mountain bike, and my roommate uses it for his road bike. The screw on nozzle is really awesome. It is really great for fine tune pressure. my roommate loves the design, and he is a mechanical engineer who is super picky so that means a lot!
high quality

Great package
Daryl Deprey

This is a very nice pump. The wooden handle has a classic and comfortable feel. Gauge being at the base generally makes it hard to see but the writing is large enough.
i picked this up in addition to the SKS Digital gauge so I can pump road tires up to pressure easily but also be able to fine tune pressures on my mountain bike.
awesome pump

this pump is great. i bought this model out of all of lezyne's models because it's the cheapest model that still has the full metal head. there's a steel floor drive for $10 less i think but it incorporates some plastic, and i wanted all metal. I don't care too much for the alloy models, as i don't inflate tires over 120psi, and this pump has the 160psi capability. if you ride tubular road tires, get the alloy version. the wood handle is beautiful, and the pearl white paint and aluminum base make this an overall very attractive piece. the operation is smooth. i've only had 2 minor problems. first, unless the threads on the head are all the way threaded on to the valve, it will not fill the tire. it's a little annoying sometimes to make sure you've threaded it all the way on. second, when unthreading the head from the valve, the rubber hose gets all twisted up, and its just annoying. neither of these are problems, just tricky to use the pump
overall, it's a great pump. it takes a little more time and care to get the head on the valve, but it works wonderfully, and never leaks. would definitely buy again.
