Joseph A. Smith Jr., Monitor of the National Mortgage Settlement, has filed a report with the Federal District Court for the District of Columbia that certifies that Residential Capital LLC, Ally Financial Inc. and GMAC Mortgage LLC (collectively known as "Ally") have satisfied their consumer relief obligations and partially certifies completion of Ally's mandatory solicitation requirements under the settlement.Click to continue
The Certification Committee of NAMB—The Association of Mortgage Professionals has been very productive to date in 2012, achieving a 300 percent increase in Certified Mortgage Consultant (CMC), Certified Residential Mortgage Specialist (CRMS) and General Mortgage Associate (GMA) designees.Click to continue
To keep up with today's ever-increasing regulatory environment, the National Credit Reporting Association Inc. (NCRA) has developed a certification program designed for the users of credit reports (employees of mortgage lenders, and property managers/landlords) to assist them in understanding the various federal laws and national credit repository guidelines that regulate their access to credit data. Access to consumer credit data is critical to their business operations and for continued access, tight compliance with these regulations is mandatory.Click to continue
I am often asked by mortgage professionals, "Why should I become NAMB-certified?" and "What does becoming certified do for me?" Let me explain the reasons why the Certified Mortgage Consultant (CMC), Certified Residential Mortgage Specialist (CRMS), and the General Mortgage Associate (GMA) programs were developed and why many of your colleagues have led the way to becoming certified by the National Association of Mortgage Brokers (NAMB).Click to continue
It's July 4 at 5:45 a.m. I woke up thinking about the year being half over. Where will the second half take us? We have already dealt with many challenges and more appear to be on the horizon. I cannot figure out whom or what is really driving this environment. Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) are still with us. Congress cannot figure out what to do with them or what to do about anything else.Click to continue

As I approach this, my last article as Certification Committee Chair of the National Association of Mortgage Brokers (NAMB), I am amazed at how quickly time seems to fly by in our daily lives. As we have all been preparing for SAFE Act Licensing and watching events in our industry unfold, time seems to be moving more for us than we may expected. Reflecting on the basic priorities this past year or two has strengthened some individuals, saw others leave our industry, and still has everyone evaluating what we should continue to do.Click to continue

Our older home lacks closet space in a bad way. We have a large bedroom with some unused space and were wondering of any tasteful contemporary closet/organizing set-ups that could hold both hanging clothes and socks, t-shirts? Or is there a better solution (other than building or tearing down walls) that we're missing. Many Thanks, Pat
Try IKEA. Seriously. The quality of their merchandise has improved so much over the last 5/6 years. They have a great selection of large wardrobes in all colors and designs. They're affordable and have nice clean lines.
This is a great question. I feel like these people work really hard and deserve a little tip, especially if they put furniture where you want it and move other things around. I would think $10 a piece for two guys would do it. What do you all think?
I agree, Jura! I always consider what they're delivering too. If it's a large sectional vs a side table, I might tip a little bit more.
I'm so happy to hear you enjoyed today's column! Not surprisingly, many Washingtonians own a lot of books and have a hard time parting with them. I love seeing books on display in a house, but it can become a losing battle if you keep collecting without ever discarding a single one. The house can go from looking orderly, to cluttered very easily. I suggest donating paperbacks and then going through the hardcover books to see if there are any that are as not near and dear to you as much as they once were. When you're making the tough calls about what to keep and what to donate, just keep in mind that if you free up some space, you can go shopping!
This is a great question. And I welcome others chiming in for ideas. I would check out vintage stores and thrift shops. Also places such as CB2, Bo Concept, Arhaus, Room & Board and Mitchell Gold. You will want to visit The Hour shop in Alexandria, which specializes in cocktail stuff and accessories, at 1015 King St. www.thehourshop.com.
This is a really great question. It's something that I struggle with too! I've installed a few hooks inside my closet where I hang those items. Or, you may consider hooks in your bathroom if there is space. Does that help?
Hi all! I just wanted to let you allll know that really liked my deck makeover. Miram did a great job. I wanted a modest makeover she was really constrained by my bugdet and the fact that I had no desire for constrction. She came up with a great design that was full of color and style. I really like the large lanterns at the steps and on the ottoman. I aksed for an inexpensive lighting solution and that is perfect. It is pretty handy the design came out now I should be able to get a lot of these items on sale now that summer is over. I am having a party in two weeks I will see what I can do by then. Thank you for picking me it was a lovely experience. Joanna
Wow. This is wonderful. Thanks so much Joanna for sharing this with us. We love feedback, right Megan? Hope you have great weather for your party! Here it is so see for yourself: Spiffing up a Herndon Deck
This space does sound challenging!! I would start by dividing the room up into spaces for each activity you mentioned. Could linens and winter coats be stored in stacked bins in one corner? (Don't buy clear bins, buy a fun color that matches the paint color). I'm assuming you have an adequately-sized filing cabinet? If not, that should be on your shopping list. And make sure you're using the vertical space, either by installing hooks to hang backpacks and purses or bulletin boards for all of those notes about the summer house renovation. I hope this is helpful! Good luck!
Congratulations on getting more space! It is a big investment both in the mattress and in the new bedding. I know my smart friend Nancy says that www.overstock.com always has fabulous buys on Italian sheets. Most people like threadcounts from 400-600 if they are looking for a luxurious night's sleep. Do you like cotton sateen or a crisper sheet? Those decisions should be made before you look. Other good online sources include Garnet Hill, Cuddledown, Company Store, Restoration Hardware. I like the Martha Stewart sheets at Macys. You can also find great discounted sheets at places such as Tuesday Morning, Homegoods, Marshall's and TJ Maxx. Anyone else have ideas?
I love the look of rolled towels and have seen this work really well for some people. Thank you for the suggestion!
I love that rule too and try to exercise it in my own house. I urge clients to follow it as well, but as you can imagine, it can be a hard one for some to follow!
I love the look of a dramatic black door. I like Black Iron by Benjamin Moore or Pitch Black by Farrow & Ball. Black Magic by Sherwin Williams is nice too. Go for it - it will make your trim pop.
Good point.
That is a great solution too. The only advantage to the hooks in a closet is that you can close the door and not have to see the items.
Agree! Megan did a really nice job and it will brighten anyone's day so click here: Yellow!
I know someone who already ordered the $10 cool yellow votive holders! from zgallerie.com.
I am happy to hear that you liked today's column! Space bags DO work in terms of making large, bulky items less voluminous. I recommend them frequently for storing thing like extra blankets and comforters. The only drawback is that they don't look particularly "neat" when everything has been vacuum packed into them.
Are you looking for paint colors or accessories? The dark Hague Blue is moody and sexy, I think. If you are into blue, House Beautiful has a very helpful and fun little book called "Blue: 350 Inspiring Ways to Decorate With Blue" $19.95, by Lisa Cregan. There are lots of paint color suggestions and accessories and tiles and furniture. Meanwhile, lots of people have also been inspired by Cooking Apple Green by Farrow & Ball. What color inspires the rest of you out there?
If you own the townhouse and hate the yellow, why isn't repainting an option? A kitchen usually has very small wall space to paint. If you really hate it, why don't you treat yourself to a new paint color - you can con a friend who paints well into doing it in a barter deal, no? Otherwise, your options are go navy in all the accessories - towels, tea kettle, fruit bowls, etc.
Thanks for confirming Overstock is a good source.
This is a really common problem. I would recommend a couple of things: First, maybe just buy a couple simple boxes, with lids and space for a label. One box could be used for bills, another for magazines, and another for "pending" papers. Sort the mail each day and immediately throw away or recycle anything you don't need and put other items into their proper box/basket. This will make the dining room look less cluttered and it will be easy to pick up and move everything if guests are coming. Try not to leave anything outside of the box, if the box if full, that means it's time to pay the bills! :)
I think I might do the mahogany stain and reupholster the seats. Good for you for snagging such good stuff from estate sales.
So true.. and scary!
A good idea.
Are you storing them in a cedar closet? Hmmmm? I wonder if putting them in a breathable, zip-up storage bag would work. You could also throw a dryer sheet in to give them a fresh scent.
I am not sure how you currently have the shelves arranged, but you could try to arrange the books by size and also put all of the hardcovers in one place and the paperbooks in another. But it might be that you just need to pack away or donate a few. The prettiest book shelves I have seen have a mixture of books, art and photos.
Or the one that produces the fewest wrinkles!
Benjamin Moore's Wedgewood Gray is nice with a blueish touch. Also Stonington Gray or Boothbay Gray. Martha Stewart for Home Depot's Dolphin is nice as is her classic Bedford Gray.
Oh, you're putting me on the spot! It's probably a tie between my 6-year-old daughter's room and my husband's closet. (Just don't tell him I told you!)
Boy, that sounds like a TON of work. I bet Allegra paid someone to do it for her... but I agree, it sounds quite chic and orderly - and beachy Bahamas!
The key here is sorting through it once a month. Often times people just throw stuff in there to get it off the counter top, whether it's trash or something they actually intend to keep. Going through and clearing it out on a regular basis will make it a much less daunting task. Drawer organizers are also a good idea for holding those items that will always be in the drawer.
I would find a yellow that will blend with some yellow shade in the mural. Benjamin Moore Golden Honey is nice. Also Moonlight or Provence Creme. Sounds like it's shaping up into a great workout space.
Try organizing the items under your sink by type and placing each in separate bin. House cleaning supplies stored in one container, kitchen items like sponges and dishwashing detergent in another container, etc. It also helps to label the containers so others know where to put things away. When things are divided into categories, it will also make it easier to know what needs to be added to your shopping list. And, be sure that you're using the height in the cabinet by using stackable wire shelves or drawers.
Now THAT is an important part of the story! Love it.
Can you give me an example?

Reports coming out these past few days suggest that "American Idol" alum Adam Lambert is rumored to take part in the June festivities of Tel Aviv's gay pride month, to coincide with the delayed promotion for his new album "Trespassing".AbbaNibi.com has exclusively learned that the flamboyant Lambert, who has been a prolific gay public figure, has been looking into participating in the events in Israel this spring, whether in line with the actual parade or a closed concert. His appearance would be presented as a special high profile guest to celebrate Tel Aviv's recent worldly accomplishment of being named the top international destisination city by GayCities.com and American Airlines's year end survey.
The report of Lambert's suspected visit comes following news last spring that media mogul Ellen Degeneres, one of the world'd leading gay entertainers, was considering a trip to the holy land, albeit no plans were thus far. Lambert, who lately began promoting his upcoming sophomore album with current single "Better Than I Know Myself" and set to perform with the legendary Queen, has formaly expressed his desire to experience Israel, while interviewing in Israel's celebrity magazine "Pnai Plus" back in 2010, stating he "would love to come".
While reaching for comment, AbbaNibi has turned to Yaniv Waizman, the official LGBT counsel to mayor Ron Huldai, who said that despite the fact that no plans have been made known he "would like to take this opportunity to personally invite Adam Lambert to take part in this major event". Waizman added that "Tel Aviv Gay Pride is definitely an international event that becomes bigger each year and we are embracing any international artist who wants to support the LGBT community".
Adam Lambert's affiliation with Israel is not something new. During his season on "American Idol", online videos surfaced of him singing in Hebrew in the late prime minister Yitzhak Rabin's memorial in LA. The singer has switched management a few months ago, and his current publicists refused to comment about anything that has to do with Israel. "Adam is very interested in visiting Tel Aviv since he heard so much about it," a source close to the superstar said, "but he still doesn't know if it will be a personal visit, or a part of his upcoming world tour."

"We are Ariel Berko and Yoav Levi from Rogozin High School in Kiryat Ata, Israel. In our experiment, that was chosen to be in the big final of the SpaceLab competition, we want to examine the effect of gravity on the mating process of baker's yeast, which multiplies via sexual reproduction. We think that the yeast will not do sexual reproduction in space because in this process there are many changes in the cells of the yeast and we think that they are affected by gravity."
That's how two Israeli 10th-graders described their proposal for YouTube Space Lab, a worldwide competition that challenges 14- to 18-year-olds to design a science experiment that can be done in outer space. The concept was born at a marketing brainstorming session at Google, YouTube's parent company, and is co-sponsored by Lenovo.
Based on popular votes received by thousands of applicants, the Israeli boys' yeast experiment made it to the finals. Now the finalists' ideas are being scrutinized by an international panel of judges including NASA officials, former astronauts Leland Melvin, Frank De Winne and Akihiko Hoshide, and Cirque du Soleil's founder, Guy Laliberté.
Six regional winners to be announced February 21 will go to Washington, DC, in March to experience a Zero-G flight and receive other prizes including a Lenovo ThinkPad. Two global winners from this group, representing ages 14-16 and ages 17-18, will have their experiments performed 250 miles above Earth in the International Space Station (ISS), live-streamed on YouTube.
The global winners will get a trip to Tanegashima Island, Japan, to watch their experiment blast off in a rocket bound for the ISS. Alternatively, winners may wait until they turn 18 to train with cosmonauts in Star City, Russia.
Yeast and humans
Fifteen-year-old Yoav explains that he and Ariel (16) heard about the competition through the program for gifted young scientists that they attend for two days, three times a year, at the Davidson Institute of Science Education at the Weizmann Institute in Rehovot. "They asked us if we wanted to take part, and we did," says Ariel.
Their first idea was to see the effect of gravity on human reproductive cells, but that would have necessitated a microscope, which is against the rules of the competition. "So we searched for something in the same model but bigger," says Yoav. "The Davidson Institute offered us to try it with yeast, and one of the PhD students there helped us plan the experiment."
Ariel describes yeast as "a very interesting creature from which we can study about humans. We are more developed creatures, but with a lot in common."
Yeast exists in two varieties: one reproduces asexually and the other sexually, through a complex mating process called "shmooing." If yeast can reproduce in zero gravity, perhaps humans also could – and vice versa.
Their biology teacher at Rogozin also helped them ready their project, and they described the proposed experiment to all 1,500 students in their school. Kiryat Ata Mayor Yaakov Peretz encouraged everyone in town to get onto the website and vote for the local boys.
If they win, it will be Ariel's first trip to America. Yoav was there in 2010 as part of a World ORT youth ambassadors program to Atlanta. "They wanted to let us get to know each other," he explains. "When I came there [kids my age] still thought there are camels in Israel."

Written by Dave Gil de Rubio, firstname.lastname@example.com Friday, 15 February 2013 00:00
Before Morris Moinian's Manhattan-based Fortuna Realty Group purchased the Garden City Hotel from the Nelkin Family in June 2012, rumors ran rampant. There was hearsay of Donald Trump entering the bidding fray while others wondered aloud about the fate of the long-serving staff. In the subsequent months, news about the hotel was scarce although announcements were made about more than 90 percent of employees getting rehired after reapplying for their jobs. Other news included the hiring away from Hilton Hotels of J. Grady Colin to be the hotel's new general manager and that a new full-service spa would open in 2014.
On Jan. 30, the Garden City Chamber of Commerce hoped to dispel some of the mystery and intrigue that's been hovering over this iconic landmark when its 2013 kickoff luncheon was hosted at the hotel itself. The turnout was healthy for this event whose theme was "The Garden City Hotel: What Lies Ahead? " and guest speakers were Fortuna Realty Group Head of Acquisitions and Asset Management Ashish Lall and Colin.
First up was Lall, who served as an officer in the United States Marine Corps as part of Operation Iraqi Freedom and was previously an investment banker at Credit Suisse and Cantor Fitzgerald. While he apologized for Moinian's absence due to a scheduling conflict, Lall assured the audience of the Garden City Hotel's role as a showcase asset in the Fortuna Realty portfolio. He also pointed out how his parent company was uniquely equipped to handle such a prestigious property.
"Fortuna is really a real estate company that has multiple facets to it. It's got the ability to acquire existing assets, look at a piece of land and develop a great hotel and it also has the ability to manage and operate. So there's a kind of integration there," he explained. "While we do have investments in other asset classes, residential and office properties, our main focus is hospitality because that's where we see the future going."
Lall also said that having grown up on Long Island, Moinian had always dreamt of one day coming over and buying the Garden City Hotel. And while it is one of Fortuna's more notable acquisitions, the relationship between the Village of Garden City and the hotel and the support of the former was a crucial facet in helping the latter not only maintain but improve on its already stellar level of service. As for future plans, Lall gave a general overview of his company's approach to this point.
"In terms of the actual upgrades that we'd like to do, our goal is to not make any changes right away. We want to come in, see how the hotel operates on a daily basis and understand these operations," he said. "I think we've done that in the last three or four months; simultaneously we've also taken time to evaluate and see how we can improve the aesthetics and the overall product. So we've actually hired designers, architects and a team of consultants that we typically use for all our new properties to evaluate these things. They are currently putting together designs for the rooms, banquets, carpets and we're taking our time to evaluate that. While I can't share anything specific yet, we are committed and have set aside some capital [to do all this]."
Befitting his job as the public face of the Garden City Hotel, Colin was more open about where the Garden City Hotel was heading. Having come from working at the Waldorf-Astoria during his prior travels, he compared the renown of the hotel he was currently managing to that of the Waldorf-Astoria.
"I worked at the Waldorf-Astoria where I'd constantly meet people who all had stories ranging from the fact that their grandmother got married there to having a father who was a mason who worked on erecting the building," he said. "Not unlike the Waldorf, the Garden City Hotel is the kind of iconic building where people start telling you their personal experiences there once they find out that you work there."
In addition to constantly praising the excellent service of the hotel's staff, the general manager also addressed the rumors of mass firings ("We re-interviewed the workers and wound up retaining 94 percent of [our hand-picked] staff") and how the hotel was being stealthily worked on ("Service will not be interrupted as improvements are made.") Among the improvements being made was a $100,000 investment in carpets and chairs, the replacement of 60 trees in the hotel's landscaping lost to Hurricane Sandy and the refinement of the banquet areas for the conferences that make up half of the hotel's revenue.
Future plans include greater Wi-Fi connectivity, tours of the hotel and providing more information at the front desk that would be more village-focused and provide recommendations about local shopping and restaurants. He also spoke of digging out memorabilia from the hotel's archives and private collectors and setting up a museum that would focus on the history of the current building and the three others before it. Most of all, Colin reassured how careful and thought-out the outcome of the Garden City Hotel was going to be going forward.
"What you want to do is not bring in the bulldozers and wrecking balls but rather keep doing our upgrades quietly. [This is] not a renovation so much as a redesign that includes enhancing the level of service in a way that will help restore the luster of the hotel," he said. "There is a legacy that we have a responsibility to continue and not blunder ahead [with]. [It's] time to add more polish to this legacy."

BioPharm: How much consideration should be given to determining the edge of failure in lyophilization process development and why?
Gieseler (University of Erlangen-Nuremberg): In my opinion, the 'edge of failure' is important to both know and understand in freeze-drying science. While processes
or formulations should not be designed at the 'edge,' you can't estimate an appropriate safety margin that is required. In
cases where the edge of failure has not been investigated, a safety margin might be too conservative, or defined on a trial-and-error
basis. More importantly, for some critical process or product parameters, edge of failure conditions do not exist, which is
then quite relevant. For example, a product that can be processed in primary drying at shelf temperatures well above ambient,
the limiting parameter is not the product anymore, but the design of the equipment. Again, we should work with a safety margin
in the established design space, but we need to rationally set the safety margin, based on the knowledge of the edge of failure.
Mayeresse (GSK): It's interesting to know where the edge of failure is, even if it's nonessential data because it provides knowledge about
the total robustness of the formulation. In a QbD approach, the extent of your design space comes from the risk analysis you
used to determine the necessary margin. Let's imagine that for shelf temperature we define a 5 °C range around the target.
For some formulation, 5 °C is near the edge of failure, but for others we have five more degrees. From this value, different
formulation can be ranked in term of robustness against collapse.
Page/Steiner (GEA): The value of knowing where the process may fail is important. Determining the design space depends on the level of confidence
in the rate of change of the relevant parameters in the region between the limit of the design space and the edge of failure.
If a process is very predictable and linear, then risk of failure can be reasonably predicted.
However, in a freeze-drying process the impact of the process condition on the product quality may be nonlinear and prediction
of the proximity to the failure edge less easily defined. In this case, it may be better to explore the edge of failure explicitly.
Pikal (University of Connecticut): In general, I agree with this philosophy. However, I maintain that with regards to the impact of collapse, it is advisable
to freeze dry a product well above the collapse temperature to observe the impact on product quality. The reason is that collapse
temperatures are determined using techniques that do not always quantitatively predict collapse in a product that is being
freeze dried in a vial. Sometimes you can freeze dry 5 °C or more above the collapse temperature measured by freeze-drying
microscopy without observable collapse in the vial. There are theoretical reasons and several observations that provide documentation
for this statement. Second, even if collapse does occur in the vial, there is a question on whether or not any critical quality
attribute is compromised. Often, the answer is no, and sometimes product quality (stability) is better in a collapsed product.
The application of this information is the knowledge on assessing the risk of collapse. The measure of risk is really the
product of the probability of the event and the severity of the occurrence of the event. Running above the collapse temperature
addresses the 'severity' of the occurrence of the event.

To study at Seattle University, you must obtain the appropriate visa from the American Embassies and Consulates.
Most international students come to Seattle University on the F-1 student visa. In order to apply for the visa you will need to obtain the Form I-20, Certificate of Eligibility for Nonimmigrant Student. Seattle University will issue the Form I-20 once you have been admitted to the university and have completed the "Declaration of Finances" form included with your application. The I-20 can only be issued to students who plan to study full-time. To apply for an F-1 visa, please contact the nearest embassy or consulate in your country of residence.
Students on short-term exchange programs come to Seattle University on a J-1 student visa. In order to apply for the visa you will need to obtain a DS-2019 form. Seattle University will issue the DS-2019 once you have been admitted to the university and have completed the "Declaration of Finances" form. To apply for a J-1 visa, please contact the nearest embassy or consulate in your country of residence.
If your intent is to come to the United States to study, it is not advisable to come on a tourist visa. Most requests to change from tourist to student status are denied by the Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services.
Prospective student visas are appropriate for students who have been admitted to more than one school, but have not decided which school they will attend. It is relatively easy to change your visa status from prospective student to F-1 status once you enroll at the university of your choice.
If your dependents would like to stay with you in Seattle, they may apply for a Dependent Visa (F-2 or J-2). The primary visa holder must show the ability to financially sponsor the dependent(s). Dependents will have their own I-20 or DS-2019. Dependents of F-1 visa holders may not engage in part- or full-time study, except for unmarried minor children in K-12 programs, and are not allowed to engage in any type of employment. Dependents of J-1 visa holders are allowed to study and also permitted to apply for an Employment Authorization Document (EAD) from the Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services (BCIS) in order to be employed in the United States.
It is not possible to renew your F-1 visa in the United States. If you are a continuing Seattle University student who will be traveling outside the United States and will need to renew your F-1 visa, you should bring along your Seattle University transcript, and transcripts from other schools you have attended in the United States. Also please be sure that your I-20 has been recently signed on page 3. The International Student Center can issue visa renewal recommendation letters for students if they have maintained their F-1 status while at Seattle University. In addition to these items, students should be prepared to present the other items required for applying for an F-1 visa.
The International Student Center can assist students to apply to the Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services for change of visa status.
At the port-of-entry to the United States, be sure that you present the I-20 from Seattle University. The school named on your visa must be a match to the school on the I-20, only if it is the first time you are using your I-20. You may also be asked for bank statements or other proof that the sponsor on your I-20 has sufficient funds to cover your yearly expenses. Be sure that you will be entering the United States before the report date in item 5 of your I-20. If you arrive after the report date, you may be refused entry to the United States.
Within 15 days after the first day of class, during your first quarter at Seattle University, you must report to the International Student Center with the following documents:
It is your responsibility to understand and comply with the terms of your visa during your stay in the
United States. If you comply with all of the F-1 visa regulations you will be considered "in status" and will be eligible for all F-1 benefits. There are four main elements to maintaining status:
Be sure that you are prepared with the following documents before you attempt to re-enter the
United States from abroad:

You're probably already hard at work catching up on all those nitty-gritty things you didn't do over the weekend.
But if you have a minute, this rare Sumatran tiger cub would love to play with you.
The San Francisco Zoo's 2-month-old unnamed addition is a bundle of fun – and quite a paw-ful for her mom, a tiger named Leanne, now that she's allowed out of her cage.
"The cub is so bad, as soon as she sees Leanne coming toward her she takes off," Corinne MacDonald, the zoo's curator of carnivores and primates, tells the San Francisco Chronicle. "Just like a little kid wants to go right where Mom doesn't want her to go."
Perhaps we could arrange a play date with the Sacramento Zoo's latest Sumatran tiger cub.

Looking for the Berlin Wall
Twenty years ago, the fall of the Berlin Wall marked the end of an era. Though the wall has largely vanished, its remains bear witness to the scars of the past. We take you on the trail of the wall that cut Berlin, and Europe, in half.

Classroom Discourse Observation (CDO)
What is CDO?Classroom Discourse Observation (CDO) is an assessment which captures not only aspects of ASL, but also discourse techniques/pragmatics, heuristic functions, and whether the environment is visually optimized. A classroom-based assessment also notes students' comprehension of the faculty, and the faculty's comprehension of the students. ASL Diagnostic and Evaluation Services (ASL-DES) video records the faculty in the classroom and then analyzes the video recording to identify strengths and areas needing improvement in the areas of utilizing a visually optimized environment, discourse, and pragmatics. The faculty is then provided a personalized feedback session which includes the opportunity to review and discuss the video recording.

It is only other market practitioners..... such as would be Register not carrying a submission to them.... which would be fettering markets and serving up their own agendas, which may also be designed to serve other agendas.
The Internet is not real in the usual sense of the word, only the result of action carried out on it which are clearly designed to impact upon reality are probably real enough to be treated as real.And then it will need to be a simply subjective Good or Bad judgment call as to whether it is good or bad for new markets controlled virtually.

News Release
June 1, 2009
Federal, State and Local Firefighters Join Forces to Fight Fire With Fire on the SW Mashoes Road Wildfire
On Saturday, May 30 at 1:00 AM, the Dare County Sheriff's Department discovered a fire burning between Manns Harbor and Mashoes after some very intense lightning storms had passed through the area. Firefighters from the North Carolina Forest Service, US Fish and Wildlife Service and the Manns Harbor Volunteer Fire Department responded to the call. The Incident Command Team was led by Refuge Fire Control Officer Donnie Harris who began suppression efforts using a containment strategy with indirect attack- meaning they set backfires along firebreaks and burned out the interior areas using aerial ignition. The 560-acre fire was declared contained at 6:00 pm on Saturday.
Once the fire was scouted and sized up, it was described as burning in thick marsh and shrub vegetation just north of the Wildlife Boat Ramp off Mashoes Road on Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge. The fire began spreading in thick sawgrass at a fairly steady rate toward the Boat Ramp Road in spite of the brief rain showers that had passed through. Attempts to start a burnout fire along Boat Ramp Road failed, because the grass was too wet to ignite with drip torches. At that point, the fire was burning intensely enough to dry out the grass ahead of itself.
The Manns Harbor VFD was assigned perimeter protection along Mashoes Road to keep the fire from crossing and threatening Manns Harbor to the South. Their efforts succeeded, and the fire was held in check until morning. Incident Commander Harris decided the safest and most cost-effective method to suppress the fire was to contain it between Boat Ramp Road, Mashoes Road and the Ed Sawyer Fire Break to the north and the shoreline of East Lake on the west side. A FWS contract helicopter was brought in to assist with burning out the fuels within the block to avoid the need for taking tractors into this boggy and thick area to fight the fire face to face.
Some backfires were lit using ground crews. However, most of the containment burns were set using the helicopter and a "ping-pong ball" machine. This aerial ignition device drops small plastic spheres that ignite the vegetation on the ground. With these methods, the firefighters were successful in burning the vegetation out with minimum damage to the larger trees.
The smoke plume put up by this burnout operation was visible for miles. By mid-afternoon most of the SW Mashoes Road Wildfire was in the process of burning out and by late afternoon, the containment lines were being mopped up by engines from the USFWS and NCFS. The Manns Harbor VFD was released to stand by as a contingency resource.
"The response to the Southwest Mashoes Road Wildfire is a classic example of interagency partners working closely to make an appropriate management response to stop a wildfire that could have turned into another Evans Road Fire," commented Deputy Refuge Manager Scott Lanier, referring to the 42,000-acre wildfire that occurred last summer over in Hyde, Tyrrell and Washington Counties. "Fortunately for us, the fire occurred within an area that had a combination of natural and man-made firebreaks, including the Ed Sawyer firebreak, an old road that is kept maintained by firefighters from the Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge. Also, the area has never been drained for agriculture or forestry operations, so deep groundfire was not a problem this time." Lanier, who flew the fire on Sunday, was impressed at the biological and hazard fuels benefits achieved by the wildfire response.
"By burning out the fuels to suppress this fire instead of risking personnel and equipment in the boggy ground, we saved a lot of wear and tear and damage to our equipment while keeping our firefighters safe. We already had plans to control burn this area, which would have cost us over $10,000. So, by fighting this fire with fire, we achieved the natural resource benefits of a prescribed burn while saving tens of thousands of dollars on fire suppression costs," Lanier added. A typical 100-acre fire in inaccessible terrain such as this can cost $50,000 or more when fought using direct attack suppression strategies.
On Monday, Lanier commented, "The successful burnout of the Southwest Mashoes Road Wildfire gives us the added benefit of an excellent firebreak between Manns Harbor and Mashoes for the next year or two. Our firefighters are taking full advantage of this opportunity today by conducting a controlled burn in the adjacent burn unit. Their goal will be to burn out the fuels in the area- creating a firebreak from the homes on the west side of Mashoes Community south to the location of Saturday's wildfire. If all goes well, by the day's end, we will have greatly reduced the fire-carrying fuels in this area that has not burned since the last wildfire decades ago. This will achieve our goal of creating safer conditions for our neighbors and improving the quality of wildlife habitat in fire-dependent pocosin and marsh ecosystems of Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge."

So, I've been on 3 dates with O so far. We've had some phone conversations, some e-mail back and forths, but we're definitely not "dating." And definitely not "together."
Today, I got a text message, where he told me he had just lost his job.
Oooooof. How was I supposed to respond? I ended up with the generic (pathetic!)
Yikes! So sorry! :-(
(and yes, I did the frowny, complete with a nose)
Then, he texted back. He was upset, he said. He said he wanted to talk. Could I meet him for lunch? He needed a friend.
And here's the thing, and I guess, the true test of relationship potential. No, I couldn't. If I had gotten this text from any of my friends, I would have been there in a heartbeat. Even if I'd gotten this text from my friend-with-benefits, I'd hop in a cab and go over there, complete with Subway sandwiches, a sympathy bottle of wine, and a whole lot of feel-good vibes. But with this, it just made me supremely uncomfortable that he was letting me into his life that way, and even more uncomfortable that he saw me as this girl that I just . . . Wasn't, at least not for him.
So, I don't know. Here's the dilemma. I don't want to stop seeing him BECAUSE he lost his job, but I know that's what it'll seem like, if I say, actually, I think we both want different things . . . But I genuinely do not care that he lost his job. I do care that he's hyper fast-forwarded our connection to a place I'm way not comfortable with. And I know that this all sounds self-obsessed and narcissistic, and really, deep down, not very nice. I hate feeling that way. So, I want to know, what are your thoughts?
I'm a single girl who's spent the past seven years working, living (and loving) in New York City. My pink Filofax is filled with dates and girly confabs and yoga classes and pretty much whatever I want to do. But I still feel a little stab of terror when one of my friends gets engaged or announces she's moving in with her boyfriend. Read More ...

Although the words Chanel and 'costume' have always been far from mutually exclusive, the 'Fastes de Cour & Cérémonies Royales' ('Court Pomp & Royal Ceremony') exhibition which opens to the public in Versailles today has more to do with the fashion house than you might think. Showcasing European court costumes from 1650 to 1800 and running until 28 June, the presentation is officially sponsored by Chanel. And, judging by Karl Lagerfeld's foreword, it looks like the 'exceptional splendour' of the 17th and 18th century monarchical costumes are where he finds his inspiration: 'Nothing was too beautiful or too expensive,' he writes, and 'One had to dazzle to impose...' So that's why we can't afford the new 2.55 and yet still really, really want one... [WWD]

As with each of the "Four Nights in Loring: Local Bands, Local Films" events being presented this August by City Pages and Lunds, tonight's performance by Marijuana Deathsquads and screening of Fargo will be followed by an afterparty at Nick and Eddie. This week's afterparty performers are City on the Make, an increasingly tight and punchy bar band whose bluesy riffs accompany fierce, gravelly lyrics that are closer to a punk-rock poetry slam than anything predictably melodic. Which isn't to say that lead singer Mike Massey can't sing—the band has been experimenting with a few softer songs that allow him to do just that—but Massey's best when he's growling and red in the face, hopping around the stage and spitting into his microphone while the band tears through one song after another right behind him. What better way to wind down from a viewing of Fargo than with City on the Make's noir tales of the industrial apocalypse? 18+. (Photo by Jeff Henrickson)

James Sewell makes ballet accessible without being condescending. He and his versatile, remarkable dancers take classical ballet on a wild ride with lots of unexpected twists, turns, and torques. But he also offers a subtle exercise in how traditional and contemporary dance can spark off of one another to create juicy new dialects. This time out, Sewell creates a new work to the music of the Bad Plus, the jazz trio labeled "about as badass as highbrow gets" by Rolling Stone Magazine. It's not an inappropriate description of Sewell's own work, and that of JSB co-founder Sally Rousse, who reprises her spiky, witty duet with cellist Laura Sewell in "Protective Coloring for Pointe and Cello." Also on this program is Penelope Freeh's richly textured folk ballad "Simple Folk." Newbies to JSB might want to sample a 60-minute version for only $10 on Saturday.
