The Growth of Regulation Means Pain for You and American Business
Sad to say, if you take a longer-term view and look again at the regulatory environment, you'll find it has been what an investor would call a growth industry, with the number of restrictions in the Code of Federal Regulations growing 28% since 1997 – that's nearly 2% per year.
How Ordinary People Become Millionaires
This week's Barron's tells the story of Stephanie Mucha, who at age 97 recently gave away $3 million to charity. Despite never earning more than $23,000 a year at a Medical Center in Buffalo, New York, she has a net worth of $6 million.
Sail Smoothly with This Smart Low-Volatility Fund
Volatility, the potential for the market or a stock to swerve sharply in value, serves as a deterrent for many prospective investors.
A Trip Around the World with Four Key ETFs
All we need to look at is four key ETFs that will tell us what need to know about what's going on in the major markets around the globe.
The Rise and Fall of Emerging Markets
Looking back, the decade between 2000 and 2009 marked the glory years for emerging markets.
Push Back against Putin's Preposterous Policies
World and corporate leaders should look for alternative business partners to minimize the fallout from trade barriers that Russia's President Vladimir Putin may erect against countries that impose trade sanctions against his nation in response to his sending Russian fighters into neighboring Ukraine.

Bruce Lee vs. Ayn Rand Philosophy: Which is Better for Investors?
"Don't feel, think!" — Ayn Rand

Consider Investing in Dividend Dandies
A key reason a person might invest in a smart beta fund would be to use the fund's formula to invest more heavily in quality equities that are underrepresented in a typical market-cap-weighted exchange-traded fund (ETF). One quality indicator in a stock is whether or not it issues a dividend.
A Red-Hot August for ETF Inflows
What can you say about the world of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) besides the fact that they are just red hot?
Can the Alibaba IPO Kick-start the Chinese Stock Market?
The renewed focus on Chinese Internet stocks — thanks to the upcoming listing of Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba — could make Chinese Internet stocks one of the hottest sectors in the coming months.
Money Awareness Can Aid Your Retirement
Money: a simple word that, if you aren't careful, can cause you a lot of problems. If not you, then maybe for a family member or a close friend.
Top Economist Warns of the Welfare State, the Biggest Threat to Prosperity
The opening Mont Pelerin Society (MPS) address by Allan Meltzer, of Carnegie-Mellon University, warned attendees that the welfare system in America is getting out of control and could result in slow economic growth for years to come.
Demystifying 'Smart Beta' Funds
Although "smart beta" funds also follow a passive index like other ETFs, the smart beta funds do so in ways besides the traditional market-cap-weighted approach.
Will September Bring Back the Volatility?
Back to work means back to big trading volume, and I suspect that means we could see a return of volatility.
Is a "September Swoon" in the Cards?
Facing a potential full-scale war in Ukraine and in the midst of another Middle Eastern crisis, market sentiment is still firmly rooted in fear.
What's Loaded in Your Valuation Tool Kit? Hopefully More Than Just P/Es…
Just like a professional golfer utilizes various clubs based on the situation, I too have valuation metrics for different situations.
Take this Simple Test on Investing: Only 34% Got it Right!
In 2008, two economists came up with three simple questions to test the financial knowledge of citizens 55 years or older. See how well you do.
Leveraging Bulls and Bears in Russia
Investing in a way that is counter-cyclical to other investors' fears can bring great profits, particularly when investing through a triple-leveraged fund.
My Three Red-Hot MoneyShow ETFs
Now, since our last Weekly ETF Report, there hasn't been much of a sense of disaster in the markets. In fact, it's been quite the opposite, which actually is a worry in itself.

Writeup and photographs by Shuva Rahim, Accent Photographics. Originally posted on shuvarahim.com. Many thanks to Shuva for recording this special day!
IOWA CITY and CORALVILLE, Iowa – QR codes, chemistry experiments, computer software programs, design-builds and startup pitches were among the highlights of the 2nd Girls Tech Career Day put on by the Iowa Tech Chicks on Wednesday. I was among the group of volunteers who helped with this event, the aim of which is to educate and inspire local girls in grades 5 to 8 about science and technology through the eyes of area women who are experts in their fields. Similar to last year, we had a small group – 16 girls – who were part of this year's tech career day. Roughly half this time were from Iowa City's school district; half were from outlying schools, and all participants were interested in the sciences.
We started the day at Kirkwood Community College, where the girls were broken into groups to do a classroom scavenger hunt for QR codes. They had to scan the codes to unlock a piece of trivia about women in technology. It was a fun, breaking-the-ice exercise for the girls while allowing us to all learn about some amazing facts on women's contributions to the sciences for more than a century.
We had a busy day planned for the girls, starting with some time in the chemistry lab at Kirkwood with instructor Lynne Zeman. She let the girls test various liquid and flame reactions with powder substances, such as sugar.
Toward the end of their lab time Lynne had the girls gather around her as she turned pennies into a gold color. And it's fair to say this first hour was among the favorite highlights of many of the girls.
After chemistry, the girls learned about finding a problem in their lives and coming up with a solution they could pitch to others. This segment was brilliantly led by Michal Eynon-Lynch, co-creator of an educational app called Pear Deck. It was like watching an intro class on how to do a startup pitch for great ideas. And the girls did come up with fantastic ideas, from magnetic hair accessories to prevent losing them to – my personal favorite – a built-in fan on a countertop so dishes could be done faster.
Then it was to the computer lab where Anamika Chandel, founder of an Indian handmade clothing and accessory company called The Silk, introduced the girls to a design program called SketchUp. The 3D-design program allowed the girls to experiment with creating buildings of all kinds on their own. It's also a free download if you want to try it for yourselves.
We then headed to the Coralville Colab, where the girls munched on lunch from Pancheros and got to hear about monkey research done by University of Iowa assistant psychology professor Julie Gros-Louis. She currently does research on infant communication, and talked about how her interest in that subject stemmed from studying a primate species in Costa Rica.
A short drive away was ConnectFive, a design-usability company which also was part of this event last year and since relocated its offices to a really great space in Coralville near the Oakdale campus. The firm's mission for the girls – which they broke up into teams – was to create a prototype bag for a specific persona (in this case an individual on the ConnectFive staff) using materials provided. There was quite a bit of drawing out ideas, discussions and major paper construction during this project among the teams.
We returned to Kirkwood where the girls learned about Scratch, a programming-language software developed at MIT which they used to create a computer game as guided by University of Iowa software developer Tricia Ball.
Finally, the last part of the day – and one of the most exciting parts – was the experience the girls shared in taking apart computers. This segment was taught by Kris Arens of SiloTree Coaching and Consulting, who compared the different computer parts to the human body to make this session more relatable. The girls had a blast pulling parts out and looking at them with great curiosity.
Overall, it was a fun-filled educational event for the girls, as well as the volunteer team. Even though this was our second go-around, we learned a lot from each other's presentations and are excited to how the girls will use what they've learned to impact their lives.
At the end of the day we had the girls fill out surveys. And we couldn't resist sharing this reaction on the Iowa Tech Chicks Twitter feed immediately when we saw it:
Thanks to the presenters, our sponsors and more importantly the girls' parents as well as their teachers for supporting them in this endeavor!
As ever,

The second of three stealth frigates that Russia builds for India at the Yantar Shipyard in Russia's Baltic exclave of Kaliningrad will be handed over to the Indian Navy on Friday.
Sergei Mikhailov, a spokesman for the Yantar Shipyard, the solemn ceremony of delivering the warship will be held in Kaliningrad and be attended by high-ranking military officers both from Russia and India.
Russia and India signed a $1.6 billion contract on construction of three modified Krivak III class (also known as Talwar class) guided missile frigates for India in 2006. The first frigate, INS Teg, joined the Indian Navy on April 27.
The last in the series of three frigates, The Trikand, currently undergoes dock trials and after it completes sea trials in the Baltic Sea will join the Indian Navy in the summer of 2013.
The new frigates are each armed with eight BrahMos supersonic cruise missiles.
They are also equipped with a 100-mm gun, a Shtil surface-to-air missile system, two Kashtan air-defense gun/missile systems, two twin 533-mm torpedo launchers, and an antisubmarine warfare (ASW) helicopter.
Russia previously built three Talwar class frigates for India – INS Talwar (Sword), INS Trishul (Trident), and INS Tabar (Axe).

Our artificial tree was on its last limb, literally - the lights on the tree stopped working last year, there were more needles on the floor than the tree and somewhere along the way a critter gnawed its way through a good portion of one side...
So we thought before investing in a new tree we'd give a REAL tree a try! The weather was perfect today for a trip to Joe's Tree Farm. We loaded up the kids and headed out to choose and cut our tree. (Thankfully, Mom kept Georgia Grace!) We walked around for about an hour, then found the perfect one.
Of course it looked gigantic once we cut it. And the fact that we didn't have rope to load it properly and ended up shoving it down the center isle of the van didn't make matters easier =)
But we made it home! Getting it into the stand was an added adventure. The words "remind me not to do this again" may have been uttered. After Justin hopped on and off the Real Tree Train a few more times it was upright and in its perfect spot! And it looks great!
In respect for those who think we shouldn't prematurely decorate for Christmas, I'll wait to post pictures of the final product =) But come Friday, it will be full blown Christmas season around here...and I'm so excited!

Some of My Sketches...
Posted by Amit Koushik On Saturday, February 16, 2013
Labels: creativity
I am Amit Koushik born on 23rd June. Internet and computers are my life and I don't need anything if I have these two. If there is no electricity around then I spend my extra time by reading , writing, listening to my favorite songs and doing some other work like painting or drawing. I guess by blogging you can better express your feelings, your thoughts and your personal opinions. It's a great way to make yourself known to other people of the world.

If the user typeset a work and uploaded its PDF, it would also be a very good idea to upload the lilypond / MusicXML source (an *open-standard* typesetting language) so that files can be modified / recompiled in the future as needed (e.g. produce different transpositions or printing in braille etc)
However if each source file is uploaded individually, this would certainly clutter the page very quickly because in Lilypond, a file may include other files (like source code in a computer program) and each PDF file may be generated from multiple source file (a source file may also contribute to multiple PDF files.
For typeset score (with *open* format - Lilypond and MusicXML only), we should set up a compiler on the server which automatically reads and unzips a zip file and compile PDF from the source file (like what Mutopia does). We can also stipulate a specific file structure for the zip file and the compile script (makefile). After specifying format of the source file on the submission screen, the server automatically opens the zip file and runs the makefile. If compile fails or if zip file contains non-text files, reject immediately.
Then the human examiner will examine the PDF output as usual. This would allow source to be uploaded yet will not incur extra human overhead.
Proprietary formats (such as overture, sib, finale) should remain unaccepted because they have closed format, and they can be converted to the *open* format MusicXML.
In this way, the source file can be adapted by others for their own need with minimal cost.

"A highly flammable byproduct flowed from oil tankers into an area stormwater system for at least a year before state regulators inspected the problem."
"Loren 'Buzz' Kiskadden first noticed a water problem at his house trailer in rural Amwell Township, Washington County, while using a hose to fill a wading pool for his grandchildren in June 2011.

Long bike ride, my longest yet. A bit nervous.
Home to clean some more. Only got my bathroom and bedroom done yesterday, that took a full 4 hours. But it looks great now. Today is the gameroom and the kids bathroom. Hopefully a nap at some point, then a long swim after dinner.
(typed up a much more detailed post, and lost it. Why do I always do that? Something I am hitting on the keyboard goes "back" a page while I am in the middle of typing, then its gone.)

Today, DD went with my dad to a retirement party while I got my hair done. The one thing I treated myself for with part of our refund from our taxes. Then at 6 I had my last test in my Word Applications 3 class. It was pretty easy. Now I'm home relaxing, about to put Maddie to bed. A long day and I'm glad it's almost over.
Tomorrow I have my math final and then I'm done until June 1!

Immigration was a hot issue during recent midterm elections, but only in a disastrous way. Despite the tremendous need for reform of our immigration policies and much discussion of overhaul over the past couple of years, candidates used the immigration issue to churn up fear among voters. Republicans pandered to the fears and anger of anti-immigrant groups in order to gain votes. Worse still, we didn't see any Democrats standing up to the challenge or promising to address the humanitarian crisis at our borders.
One of the big concerns …

Tension over immigration is ramping up again in Mississippi – spearheaded by Governor Bryant's hateful stance towards the refugee children – and will likely come to a fever pitch during the 2015 Legislative Session. Each fall, we begin planning, organizing, and mobilizing to fight back against the anti-immigrant camp, and this year is no exception. Our September Advocacy Meeting (which was held on the 10th of September) had a great turnout and we were able to take key steps towards preparation for the 2015 Legislature.

The Colorful Mr. White
Bryan Cranston on seeing red, going black and being a chameleon
He's won three consecutive Emmys for his leading role on AMC's "Breaking Bad." Watching him alternate between the feeble, stomped-upon character of Walter White and a meth kingpin persona known as "Heisenberg," the dramatic range that brought Bryan Cranston such acclaim is clear. "Breaking Bad" creator Vince Gilligan calls him the greatest talent he's ever worked with—"an actor who comes along every hundred years or so."
The Alibi spoke with Cranston about Albuquerque, getting inside the mind of Walter White and why Michael Jordan should step aside.

News Analysis
The transmission industry may have to wait even longer for a final decision on challenges to Order 2000 if FERC gets its way.
The challengers, though, see things a bit differently. As the Snohomish Co. (Washington) PUD charges in its court filing, "FERC's contention that petitioners could seek judicial review after raising cost issues in individual RTO proceedings places Snohomish in a Catch-22. If Snohomish cannot proceed now, but must seek review after a specific proceeding, the challenges raised here would be vulnerable to attack as time-barred by Section 313 of the Federal Power Act, which requires that challenges to FERC decisions be brought within 60 days, and as an impermissible collateral attack on Order No. 2000." .
Case Not Yet Ripe for the Picking?
The controversy centers on the legal doctrine of ripeness. Federal courts often refuse to decide the merits of cases that they perceive to be more theoretical than actual conflicts. In the Order 2000 appeal, FERC's argument is that the rules it has set forth are too generic for individual parties to challenge just yet. Since FERC did not act in Order 2000 against any particular company or entity, it claims, there is no specific injury that the courts can remedy. "Self-evidently, the transmission owner's aggrievement, if any, would not arise until [an individual RTO] proceeding is completed, rather than in this rulemaking before any RTO original agreement has even been established, much less fundamentally changed," FERC said in its brief. It continued by saying that non-public utility owners South Carolina Public Service Authority (Santee Cooper) and Snohomish PUD "cannot point to an immediate, concrete, non-speculative injury [that] either has suffered as a result of the sole substantive requirement under Order No. 2000: that public utilities file a proposal to participate in an RTO or describe efforts and plans to participate in one. As neither of these petitioners is a public utility, they are not obligated to satisfy Order No. 2000's filing requirements."
Before the oral argument, however, Snohomish PUD and Santee Cooper, along with the rest of the industry, seemed trapped between the proverbial rock and hard place when it came to challenging any of the ground rules of Order 2000. For example, in the RTO West proceeding, Snohomish PUD challenged the commission's determination that implementing RTOs will be universally beneficial. In the Pacific Northwest, Snohomish PUD argued that creating an RTO to replace the existing transmission scheme is likely to cost hundreds of million of dollars more than any potential benefits to customers, due to the unique circumstances of the region. The commission flatly rejected that challenge. "In Order No. 2000, the commission found that the benefits of RTO formation overall outweigh the costs, but it did not require individual cost benefit analysis in compliance filings. We will not reverse that determination here," it said. .
Similarly, in the GridSouth RTO proceeding, the commission turned away a challenge to the passive ownership rules outlined in Order 2000. Santee Cooper sought a generic ruling that the passive ownership proposals contemplated by Order 2000 were generally unacceptable, because they did not ensure sufficient independence of the RTO. But FERC dismissed that argument. "Santee Cooper's arguments are an impermissible collateral attack

Madonna - Art For Education: Madonna To Auction $7 Million Painting To Educate Girls In Afganistan
Veteran pop star will auction painting to raise funds for girls' education overseas
Picture: Madonna - 24th Annual GLADD Media Awards - Madonna presents the Vito Russo Award to Anderson Cooper - New York, NY, United States - Saturday...
Not one to be outdone by the likes of Angelina Jolie, Madonna recently announced that she will be selling an abstract painting worth around $7 million in order to raise money to educate girls in Afganistan, Pakistan and other countries in which female education is either a rarity or does not exist at all, Reuters reports.
The painting that Madonna will auction is named Trois Femmes a la table rouge,' by the French artist Fernand Leger and the pop singer has said that she wishes to trade the valuable painting for the means to educate young girls. She bought the 1921 painting at auction in 1990 and will now sell it, in order to raise money for her Ray of Light Foundation. "I cannot accept a world where women or girls are wounded, shot or killed for either going to school or teaching in girls' schools," Madonna said. "We don't have time to be complacent. I want to trade something valuable for something invaluable – Educating Girls!" The painting is due to be sold on May 7 at Sotheby's Impressionist and Modern Art sale in New York.
Angelina Jolie is also launching her very own designer jewellery range, in order to raise money for an education project for girls, in a village near Kabul, in Afghanistan.

Special Collections libraries are wondrous places. Part library, part museum, they are repositories of the written word and of all manner of material culture and ephemera. At the John Hay Library you can view Shakespeare's first published folio of 1632 or Batman comic books, cuneiform tablets circa 1800 BCE and Orwell's hand-written manuscript for 1984. A first edition of Whitman's Leaves of Grass shares space with pencils labeled "Thoreau" manufactured by the family of Henry David. And fine and folk arts abound, compare, for example, Peter Baumgras' oil portraits of Abraham Lincoln and a portrait of Theodore Roosevelt collaged from postage stamps.
November 2010 marks the 100 anniversary of the John Hay Library, named for a member of the class of 1858. Perhaps the most famous Brown graduate of his day, John Hay accepted the position of private secretary to Abraham Lincoln at the age of 22, and thus began a long career in government. In addition to numerous diplomatic posts, he served as Secretary of State under Presidents McKinley and Roosevelt. Hay also worked as a journalist and had a great love of poetry. He died in 1905 while serving as Secretary of State. In 1906 Andrew Carnegie provided funding for the library in honor of his late friend.
Pictures from the Hay celebrates the Hay centennial through a selection of visual materials—paintings, prints, drawings, photog

For many Americans, Thanksgiving is a time of family get-togethers around a traditional turkey dinner, with vague recollections of Pilgrims sharing a meal with Native Americans in eastern Massachusetts nearly four centuries ago. But for the remnants of those indigenous tribes, it is a time for mourning, Gary G. Kohls writes.
Human Rights
Muzzling an Anti-Nuke Trial Defense
Federal prosecutors, who are seeking long prison terms for three anti-nuclear-bomb activists as punishment for entering the government's Oak Ridge bomb-making complex, want all moral and legal questions about nuclear weapons excluded from the trial, reports John LaForge.
FBI Snooping on the CIA's Petraeus
The U.S. news media pretends to shy away from sex scandals but actually looks for any excuse to cover them. A case in point has been the ouster of CIA Director David Petraeus, but the press may have missed the bigger story of FBI snooping, says the Independent Institute's Ivan Eland.
Corrupting US Democracy
The United States tends to view itself as the gold standard for democracy and bristles at international criticism of its electoral flaws. But recent corrosion of democratic principles, caused mostly by Republicans, has lowered the quality of U.S. democracy, writes ex-CIA analyst Paul R. Pillar.
How Israel Out-Foxed US Presidents
From the Archive: Just days after President Obama's reelection, Israel launched a punishing bombing campaign against Palestinians in Gaza – much as Israel did shortly after his election in 2008. Obama again is put in a tight spot, but other U.S. presidents faced similar challenges, as Morgan Strong reported in 2010.
Israeli Scholar Disputes Founding Myth
From the Archive: As Israel again "mows the grass" in Gaza – taking revenge on Palestinians for firing crude missiles into Israeli territory – the myth upon which the Jewish government stakes its claim to the land is front and center. But the myth faces challenges even inside Israel, as Morgan Strong reported in 2009.
Challenging Israel's Myths
A carefully cultivated mythology sustains Israel's territorial claims to Palestine and rationalizes Israel's ethnic cleansing of millions of Palestinians from the land. Challenges to those myths are typically met with fierce counterattacks, as Lawrence Davidson discovered.
Likening Palestinians to Blades of Grass
Exclusive: Israeli hardliners joke about the periodic need to decimate each new generation of Palestinian militants as "mowing the grass," a process underway again in new bombardments of Gaza. This ugly metaphor has also penetrated the think-tank world of Official Washington, as ex-CIA analyst Elizabeth Murray learned.
Death Knell for a Failing Paradigm
The death and destruction from Super Storm Sandy – this time inflicted near the U.S. power center of New York City – are warnings of what's in store if the global-warming deniers continue to obstruct action. Future devastation will shatter the creaky framework of modern civilization, says Phil Rockstroh.
A Closer Look at New Gaza Conflict
The new round of violence between Israel and Palestinians in Gaza is receiving the typical U.S. media treatment, blaming Hamas and absolving Israel. But the origins of the latest clashes are much more complex than that simplistic and one-sided version, writes ex-CIA analyst Paul R. Pillar.

Posted April 04, 2013 on AP on Fox
Earlier this week, John Beilein was asked to say a few words about the season he spent coaching Nazareth College - 30 years ago. Specifically, he was asked what it was like having Jeff Van Gundy on the team, but it turned out the questioner was off by a year. Van Gundy didn't arrive at Nazareth until later. No matter. It was another chance for Beilein to offer a quick history lesson. ''My first game at Nazareth was at Brockport State. Jeff Van Gundy was the starting point guard at Brockport State and his father was the head coach,'' Beilein said. ''Both teams showed up with gold uniforms. The Brockport State guys had to go back to their rooms to get their new uniforms.'' Beilein went on to explain how Van Gundy switched schools, heading to Nazareth around the same time Beilein left to take a job at LeMoyne. The anecdote had nothing to do with Michigan or this week's Final Four, but the 60-year-old coach was happy to tell the story - and th...

In a league with Hollywood's top historical epics, ancient or otherwise. It's stunningly handsome film, with an equally stunning cast and engrossing story.
An exhilarating piece of epic filmmaking that it pulls you in, sweeps you up and works very much as its own thing.

Whitefield man indicted on child sex abuse charges
Michael Gibson of 30 Elm St., Apartment 1, in Whitefield was also indicted on two counts of aggravated felonious sexual assault, one count of felonious sexual assault and a charge of witness tampering for allegedly threatening to hurt the girl if she told anyone about what happened.
Gibson is accused of confining the girl, keeping her under his control, and sexually assaulting her. The charges are class B felonies.
In other indictments handed up at its March 29 session and released Tuesday, the grand jury indicted: James Lapre, 39, of 90 Pinyon Place, Londonderry, with seven counts of aggravated felonious sexual assault between August 2007 and August 2010 in Lancaster, Gorham and Berlin. The alleged victim is a girl who was under age 11 when the reported assaults began; Lynn Perry, 41, of 59 Depot St., Lancaster, with first-degree assault and second-degree assault on Feb. 14 in Northumberland. Perry is accused of hitting a woman in the head with "a glass receptacle or mug, a hard glass object, a deadly weapon."
According to the indictments, Perry caused a severe injury to the woman's head. The woman lost consciousness, and was left her with a head cut that required sutures, according to the indictments. The charges are class A and class B felonies, respectively.

SAJI Project
What we do
Indonesia registers only 17 percent of its vulnerable population with access to legal service while the poorer provinces throughout the Eastern part of the country has only as low as 10 percent of capacity in bringing cases to court. For the most part, this issue was caused by limited income of the communities that has hindered the access to pursue legal action through the formal justice system. The level of awareness to the legal aid service provided free of charge by the Government has proven to be low with as much as 96.5 percent of the Supreme Court's IDR 34.5 billion legal aid budget had remained untouched in 2011.
The Strengthening Access to Justice in Indonesia (SAJI) project seeks to improve the access and the delivery of justice especially to the poor, women and diffable groups of the communities. Funded by the Norwegian Government, UNDP Indonesia and the National Development Planning Agency (BAPPENAS) has launched the project focusing on the policy, legal and regulatory reforms and strengthening the capacity of government and non-government service providers to implement Indonesia's National Strategy on Access to Justice (NSA2J) throughout the National and Subnational levels. The latter include Maluku, North Maluku, Central Sulawesi, Aceh and Central Kalimantan Provinces.
Key Milestones
The National Strategy on Access to Justice (NSA2J)
Through the collaboration with BAPPENAS, NSA2J was mainstreamed into the National Mid-term Development Plan (RPJMN). The outcome of this exercise had resulted in identified ministries and institutions to implement NSA2J mandatorily. The key achievements under NSA2J include as follows:
- Established the National Access to Justice (A2J) Secretariat in BAPPENAS to coordinate the implementation of the NSA2J.
- Facilitated gap analysis in six ministries/institutions which maps the extent to which the NSA2J action plan have been effectively implemented. This ministries/institutions include: Ministry of Home Affairs; Ministry of Law and Human Rights; Supreme Court; Ministry of Social Affairs; Ministry of Women's Empowerment and Child Protection; and the Office of the Ombudsman.
- Disseminated information about the NSA2J to around 8 million people through various communication media. This includesjournalism award and national conference events, SAJI newsletters, radio talk-shows, media trips, and TV ads.
Public Complaints and Grievance Handling Mechanisms(PCMs)
SAJI also seeks to improve the coordination between service providers, clarify overlapping jurisdictions and minimum service standards for PCMs. These are the main hurdles that have hindered the effectiveness of grievance handling mechanisms. The project strives to adapt the legal services to the actual needs and interests of the public while at the same time ensuring to enhance the accountability of the ministries/institutions. The key achievements under PCMs include as follows:
- Commissioned a study which examines the strengths and weaknesses of PCMs in four targeted government institutions which include the Supreme Court, Judicial Commission and the Ombudsman.
- Supported the development of a Presidential Regulation on PCMs based on the results PCMs study that stipulates the needs to further develop the technical capacity as well as minimum operational standards for PCMs. A training was provided on how to manage effective complaint handling mechanisms on public servicein Aceh, Central Kalimantan, and Central Sulawesi.
- Provided capacity development support through advisory and training facilitationto the Ombudsman to coordinate the quality standardization of the PCMs.
Begun piloting PCMs in three targeted districts/townships which include Bener Meriah District, Aceh Province, Palangkaraya Township, Central Kalimantan Province and Palu Township, Central Sulawesi Province. Through this engagement, it is estimated that around 600,000 people will benefit from the PCMs whereby citizens' grievances on public service will quickly be solved and the concerned services can be improved and made more accountable to citizens.
Legal Aid
In line with the Human Rights work, SAJI also seeks to ensure that free legal aid for the poor which equates to approximately 28.6 percent of the total 240 million populations is utilized to its intended purpose. The key achievements from SAJI on Legal Aid include as follows:
- Disseminated Law No. 16/2011 on Legal Aid at both the National and Subnational levels.
- Developed by-laws on legal aid funds transfer mechanisms, eligibility criteria for legal aid providers and minimum service standards impose for legal aid providers.
- Accredited 41 legal aid providers throughout Maluku, North Maluku, Central Sulawesi, Aceh and Central Kalimantan provinces.
Informal Justice
Through the institutional capacity and networks built by UNDP in Aceh Province since 2008 to date, SAJI has fostered a close collaboration with the Aceh Customary Council (MAA) and had succeeded to strengthen the quality of informal or adat justice service provision. The key achievements on this are as follows:
- Studies from 2013shown about 91percent of justice users are satisfied with the quality of services provided in Aceh under auspice of the Aceh Customary Council (Majelis Adat Aceh/MAA) More district government institutions in Aceh provided state funding for adat justice mechanisms based on the MAA report. In 2010, only 2 out of 23 districts/townships allocated funds for informal justice service provision. In 2012, MAAreport had shown that it has increased to 13 out of 23 districts.
- From several discussions/workshops between the customary justice actors and police in Aceh,it wasshown that there is an increase synergy between adat and formal justice systems in Aceh Province, particularly in the rule of law implementation for petty criminal cases such as quarrelsamong family/community members, small valued theft. This is attributable to greater clarity about the jurisdictional boundaries between the informal and formal legal systems as described in the adat justice guidelines.
- Women are increasingly involved in adat justice service provision, particularly in cases involving gender based violence and discrimination and/or disputes relating to marital rights. This was shown through the UNDP commissioned research in 2013 on the satisfaction level of Aceh customary justice.
As part of best practice from SAJI's work with the MAA, similar approaches have been replicated in Central Sulawesi through the development of adat justice guidelines and adat Council which was established to oversee the implementation of informal justice processes.

Just put down my first dark ale yestaday and was wondering should i use a secondary or can i just leave in primary until its finishrd fermenting then bottle?? When do i pit in secondary ? And for how long and what temp?? My recipe was
1 can of tooheys classic dark malt
1 1.5kg can of amber malt
500gms of light dry malt
Chinook hops steeped for 40 mins
Hallertau hops steeped for 10 mins
Safale yeast s-04
You do not need to secondary. Leave it in the primary for three weeks, make sure that the gravity has stabilized, then bottle it.
Racking it to a secondary increases the risk of infection and oxidation.
The consensuses on this site is skip the secondary unless you are adding fruit, dry hopping, oaking, or long term bulk aging.
Ok no worries so if it finishes fermenting after say 9 days it will still be ok to sit in there for another 2 weeks?
Yes, it will be OK. In fact it will be better, the yeast will "clean up" some of the undesired products of fermentation.

Revvy>>You shouldn't worry about ANYTHING, you didn't hurt the yeast, they know what they need to do, they want to eat all that sugar they are swimming around in. They want to pee alcohol and fart co2, it's their nature.
Bobby_M>>I flood the keg with CO2 for one minute with the lid off, rack the beer in to the bottom gently, seal it, flood it, vent it. If there's still O2 in there after that, F it.
Cheers for your reply ill leave it in there for 3 weeks..

Women's volleyball: FGCU swept at Lipscomb to end regular season
The Florida Gulf Coast University women's volleyball team was swept, 3-0, at Lipscomb in Nashville on Saturday to conclude the regular season.
The Bison (21-7) won 25-20, 25-13, 25-19 to finish 15-3 in the Atlantic Sun. The Eagles (13-18, 9-9) will play Stetson in the first round of the conference tournament on Thursday at 5 p.m. in Kennesaw, Ga.
"This afternoon we came out and played really well for the first part of set one, matching up point-by-point and having really good energy and focus," FGCU coach Dave Nichols said. "We gave up a couple of loose points and we got frustrated. After that it was like the wheels fell off and we started making mistakes. We played tight and it was a frustrating way to end the season.
"Of course, we're going to go back to work Monday to try to keep improving. We'll get back to work and look forward to playing Stetson."
Jessica Barnes led the Eagles with nine kills, and Kaitlin Holm added eight. Gigi Meyer had 26 assists. Gulf Coast High grad Karina Mambuca had 11 digs, and Whitney Masters added 10.

With the headlines full of news about unjust killings and a depressed economy and message boards across the interwebs filled with those proverbial haters, we could all use a little positivity and encouragement. And if that positivity just so happens to come in the form of a catchy hook, all the better. Resident Cash Money rocker Kevin Rudolf, who broke out with Let It Rock, is back to work on a new album and our first taste is an appropriately uplifting new single Don't Give Up. Produced by the headliner himself, Don't Give Up is built around an acoustic guitar line and some well placed hand claps, resulting in a toe-tapping affair that's nearly impossible to frown through. Vocally Kevin keeps it simple, delivering a catchy but straightforward melody chock full of words we all need to hear sometimes: "People out there doubt what they can't see / but there's a shooting star that you were born to be." While Rudolf's new album has yet to receive a title or release date, I think we can rest assured that he won't give up until he's got both.
