How can whale shark tourism be kept sustainable?
When the revenue generated by wildlife-related tourism is higher than that generated by the consumption of that wildlife, then the animals in question are worth more alive than dead.
Protecting coastal ecosystems requires global cooperation

Manta rays are worth more alive than dead
Manta and mobula rays, together the "mobulids" are among the most recognizable, charismatic fish in the world.
Wildlife tourism in Iceland gets seal of approval
It's thought that wildlife-based tourism is one way through which the more exploitative forms of animal-driven economies, like hunting, the exotic pet trade, or the illegal sale of bus

NOTE: Downtown Charleston high-end condo townhomes to be built on the Ashley River next to the Courtyard Marriott did not survive the economic downturn.. These 46 condo homes previously named Indigo will not be built. The Cigar Factory also failed to make it when it lost its funding.This was in the middle of renovation when the project for luxury condos halted. This will now be created into business/office/retail space - no condos at all.

Enjoy your search!
Condominium living is becoming increasingly attractive in the Charleston area. One can now find condo homes on prime waterfront, oceanfront and historic locations with custom construction and luxury amenities. If one eliminates the time and expense spent maintaining a property, it often adds up to more than most regime fees associated with condo living which provides a more stress-free environment ideal for many.
HOA, POA, or Regime Fees (all terms are interchangeable) differ depending on the Condominium association and how they organize their budgets. Sometimes the flood insurance is added into the POA price and sometimes billed separately. If the condominium is new, it is possible that the regime fees are kept low and supplemented by the developer who still controls the POA, in order to stimulate sales. After the property is turned over to the homeowners, often times, this amount may have to be increased in order to have enough money to manage the property.
Charleston is experiencing many parents buying condos for their children attending school and working in Charleston, SC, as well as young professionals and retirees. There are also many investors seeking investment opportunities in new condo developments, so many new projects now cap the number of investors allowed in each development to protect the average condo owner.There are a great deal of condo conversions in Charleston, especially in downtown Charleston. Many historic Charleston duplexes and triplexes are being turned into condominiums on the Charleston peninsula.
Buyers need to peruse the regime fees involved with these conversions before buying, and pay particular attention to the flood insurance costs. Condominiums on the Charleston peninsula offer a viable alternative to expensive older homes whose upkeep can be a major financial burden under the strict architectural covenants of the historic area.
Enjoying the historic city, and living within walking distance to the dynamic downtown shopping district, old city market, libraries, universities, parks, and a variety of fine restaurants, one discovers that condo living combines those high-end amenities to maintenance-free living. Downtown condos include Anson House, Factor's Walk, Society Street , One Vendue Range, The Bristol, 33 Calhoun, 21 George Street, Chisolm, Concord at Cumberland Street, The Crafts House, One Vendue Range, Laurens Place, Factors Walk, Peoples Bank, Bee Street Lofts as well as numerous smaller condos.
MOUNT PLEASANT LUXURY CONDOMINIUMS & TOWNHOMESCross the Cooper River over the Arthur Ravenel Bridge to discover the the town of Mount Pleasant. Some of Mt Pleasant's best residential views are from condominiums located along the edge of water. The Renaissance and The Tides are the main attractions, but closer to Sullivan's,one finds condo townhomes in Marsh Harbor, Simmons Point and Sawyer's Landing.
Closer to the Isle of Palms Connector and I-526 , The Meridian and Seaside Farm's Marais. At Seaside Farms near the Isle of Palms and the restaurant and shopping district, condos include a fitness facility and swimming pool. The Renaissance and Tides are located in Mt. PleasantISLE OF PALMS CONDOMINIUMS Home to the chic Wild Dunes Resort, marina and championship golf courses, the Isle of Palms features a lively restaurant and shopping district and fishing pier. The ideal combination of beach front living and urban flavor can be found on the Isle of Palms, only 20 minutes from downtown Charleston. With six miles of sandy beach on one side, and six miles of marshfront on the other, life on this narrow barrier island is never far from a waterfront vista. Situated on this fashionable strip overlooking the Atlantic Ocean are a number of very conveniently-located condominiums. Among those on the island, Oceanside Villas, Sea Cabin and Oceanview.
On James Island, there are also many apartment buildings that have been renovated and turned into condominiums as well as new condo properties. The Albemarle and Arboretum are in West Ashley and were built as condos. The Regatta, Retreat, and Mira Vista are on James Island. These condos are just five minutes across the Ashley River from historic Charleston, James Island offers a feel of the country close to the heart of downtown and features James Island County Park with its climbing towers, paddling courses, skating boulevards, and biking paths, the outdoor adventures abound with a municipal golf course, numerous public boat ramps and the fishing pier and surf of Folly Beach nearby where Oceanfront Villas offers condo lovers views of the ocean at the beach.
James Island condominiums offer all the advantages of the island location with maintenance-free lifestyle. At Wappoo Creek Place, just minutes from downtown Charleston, units have stunning views of sunsets over the intracoastal waterway. With private garage, gated patios, and separate living room, dining room and sunroom, three-bedroom waterfront condos are available for under $500,000. Wappoo Landing condominiums, built in 2003, feature similar gorgeous marsh views along the intracoastal waterway, as well as tile bathrooms, wood floors up and downstairs, stainless steel appliances, a private garage and a community dock on Wappoo Creek. Mira Vista condominiums offer crown moldings, ten-foot ceilings, and a swimming pool, this stylish community. Originally apartments converted to condos, the lack of building standards showed the results of environmental stress quickly and in 2012 were negotiating extensive repairs for the complex. Roofs and flashings seem to be the most prevalent problems.

Book Description:
America's leaders say the economy is strong and getting stronger. But ordinary Americans aren't buying it. They see what the rosy statistics hide: We are all struggling under the weight of terrifying economic instability. No matter how well educated and hard working we are, we know that the bottom can fall out at any moment. Meanwhile, the safety net that once protected us is fast unraveling. With retirement plans in growing jeopardy while health coverage erodes, more and more economic risk is shifting from government and business onto the fragile shoulders of the American family. The book documents how two great pillars of economic security--the family and the workplace--guarantee far less financial stability than they once did. The final leg of economic support--the public and private benefits that workers and families get when economic disaster strikes--has dangerously eroded as political leaders and corporations increasingly cut back protections of our health care, our income security, and our retirement pensions. Hacker concludes by advocating an "insurance and opportunity society" that would safeguard economic security and expand economic opportunity, ensuring that all Americans have the basic financial security they need to reach for and achieve the American Dream.

It feels as if we have so few leaders in this country that stand for equal rights, humanitarian insights and fair Governance. Our own environment in education and training seems as if its losing the sights of where we all wish to be. Yes, there are glowing lights, but it feels that they are few and unseen. So when working with people who have the backing of one of the most decorated peace individuals this week, I felt hugely humbled.

- Topic:Conservation
- Type: CCF News
Now that the dry season is nearly upon us, it has become much easier for us to go out into the bush to conduct our necessary ecological fieldwork. Each month, we conduct a variety of different game counts to monitor the health and population statuses of the prey species that cheetahs and other local carnivores target. This becomes tricky when the roads are very muddy, especially when driving night counts! Fortunately the rains are now stopping and we are able to drive without fear of getting stuck in the middle of the bush.
So far in April, we have already completed our circuit counts, which are where we drive on set routes around CCF farms that contain a variety of different habitats. We were lucky enough on the last night count to spot not just one, but two aardwolves! Aardwolves are the smallest of the hyena family, but unlike their cousins, do not hunt large prey. Instead, they target termites and other small insects. It is just as important for us to monitor the population statuses of other carnivores within the CCF area alongside cheetahs to determine whether the ecosystem is working as a functional unit. Every organism in a healthy ecosystem plays an integral role in the overall maintenance of the system, therefore, as ecologists, we are interested in understanding how diverse our land and how complex the food web is.
Night counts are the best time to see most carnivores, as many of them prefer hunting in low lights that provide a cover of darkness for effective hunting. Also whilst on the same game count, we came across two separate small spotted genets, which are cat-like mammals related to civets, fossa and mongooses. It is good to see that other carnivore species appear to be doing well on CCF land!
All the best,
Cheetah Conservation Fund

Thanks so much for this post and these news.
It's totally different but would you be so kind to tell us if Soraya, Queysar and Phoenix are always together in the same enclosure and near Laurie's house, because a female and two males it becomes difficult to let them together!? isn't it?
have a good day
Hi Brigitte,
All three "Stars" are together and happy in the same enclosure and will remain there unless needed for future breeding. Both Quasar and Phoenix are on contraceptives so there are no issues with respect to that.

"My cards came very fast! I was so suprised at how professional their delivery was. It came in a big box all my cards were perfect and that goes for My envelopes too. Everyone that had received them has called me saying how much they loved our save the dates and raved about the quality of the card. We are deffinetly using wedding paper divas for programs and our invitations!"
"Absolutely love our save the date cards! The quality is better than I expected and for the price you'd never know they weren't insanely expensive. Have been very happy with the cards and have received many compliments from guests! Cannot wait to order the matching invitations in a month or two. Customer service has also been wonderful to work with, was short a few envelopes and they got them out to me extremely fast. Love love love our save the date cards!!"
"Used this template for our across-seas Save the Date, and it turned out beautifully. We customized the color scheme, added a photo of our wedding destination on the back as well as some text beneath it. The design mock-ups were quick and on point each time, and when I had to order more, it was a single quick process (without needing to make the same changes twice). Highly recommend this card, and the WPD service as a whole to brides who want a hand in the creative process, but don't want to break the bank."
"I really loved the design of this card; it was simple, yet elegant and I liked being able to personalize with my wedding color - blush. I chose blush on the back as well; the designer even added my wedding website to the back! I chose the basic, standard paper and it is a nice matte finish that does not feel cheap at all. Quality of the photo could have been a little better, but I love the look of the card so much that it doesn't even seem to matter! Also, I recommend the rounded edges - just a little more classically elegant than the cut shown in the display photo."
"Pleasantly surprised by quality of paper. Was a little disappointed by the color- on the computer the picture appeared brighter, as did the verbena color we chose for the back. It looks like a very pale gray in person. Good experience working with customer service though & overall great product!"

ARM servers to gain boost from ARM, Oracle Java partnership
ARM Holdings on Monday announced that it has entered into a multi-year partnership with Oracle to optimize the Java Platform, Standard Edition (Java SE) for the ARM processor architecture, including 64-bit ARMv8 designs. ARM chips have long dominated the mobile computing biz, but this new effort will focus mainly on improving …
Look away!
Don't look directly at it. Stay away from the darkness! Come back into the light! ARM, can you hear me? Grab this rope and hang on!
Re: Look away!
"Java increasingly powers all kinds of other devices "
I really hope that insecure pile of shite is not increasing in usage in anyway. I find it unlikely.
Hope ARM used
experienced lawyers............
Can someone just kill Java please?
kill java?
like no one uses android or hadoop or tomcat anyway
Oh good
I've always wanted a version of the Ask Toolbar for ARM platforms.
It is perverse ...
... that Java is seen as a good thing, especially on a platform priding itself on being lean and power-efficient.
Re: It is perverse ...
I guess all the down votes must be from Java Devs, hoping that Oracle's dying Boat Anchor business has found a new opportunity by infecting systems based on Arm with Java.
It's an attempt to cripple the competition with crap technology. They will be so busy patching security holes, they wont have time to develop anything new....
Re: It is perverse ...
Java isn't that bad, bugs and Oracle bug galore nonwithstanding. It's much better than getting yourself locked down with .NET! That said, hardware acceleration for Java has existed previously with Jazelle and the later thing that isn't Java-specific on ARM, so it isn't like its something new.
Interestingly, the Java slammers are AC. Why so shy?
Oracle has to be there
It would be a bit embarrassing to have Dalvik on all those ARM systems, wouldn't it?
Re: Oracle has to be there
More likely OpenJDK than Dalvik.
Er... aren't most/all android apps written in Java? From that it seems to follow that this is a useful move for tablet & phone development.
I can't avoid the suspicion the press release: "ARM, ORACLE JAVA PARTNERSHIP" might not connect to a very inspiring reality: "INTERN TOLD TO TRY AND BRUSH UP JVM PERFORMANCE FOR NEXT RELEASE OF CHIP"
ARM has had the jazelle Java byte code accelerator for years, it's not surprising they want to continue to develop it, and working with the developer of Java kind of makes sense for that.
Re: Jazelle
Jazelle was deprecated after ARMv5, on which it was optional. ARMv5 is so old that the latest ARM Fedora dropped support for it. IIRC the "replacement" for it the ThumbEE instruction set which is completely generic, not in any way Java specific, and targetted at compiled code (applicable to Java only in JIT context).

Morning traffic could be tough if overnight forecast holds
Threats of snow and freezing drizzle have municipal and county road crews and transit agencies preparing for slippery roads.
Seattle Times staff reporter
Threats of overnight snow and freezing drizzle left most of Western Washington braced for the biggest flurry of winterlike weather this season, as local governments and transit agencies prepared for roadway treachery come Tuesday morning.
Light snow began falling early Monday along parts of the Washington coast.
By afternoon, the National Weather Service had issued a Winter Weather Advisory, warning that up to an inch of snow could be headed to parts of Seattle proper, with up to 3 inches in areas in East and Southeast King County. Forecasters expected the largest accumulations at higher elevations and around the Cascade foothills.
Municipal and county road crews throughout the region reported preparing early. Everett officials announced they had snowplows at the ready, with crews prepared to "work around the clock."
In Bellevue, officials touted its proactive work to spread de-icer on bridges and other areas susceptible to ice. Seattle's city website reminded visitors of alternate ice and snow routes and carried other cold-weather tips and information sources.
Metro Transit made it through Monday's evening commute with little trouble. But the agency tweeted warnings later that its Tuesday bus service could be affected should snow and ice strike overnight.
Meantime, King County public-works officials said crews would be out early to clear roads if necessary.
Meteorologists expected any snowfall would turn to rain by late morning or early afternoon Tuesday. But they also cautioned that warm, moist air moving in over a cold surface layer of air can create rain that freezes as it falls.
Low temperatures overnight were expected to range from 28 to 32 degrees throughout Western Washington.
If that seems cold to you, consider what your friends and relatives east of the Cascades are coping with: Overnight lows of 9 to 15 degrees.

Business briefs around the East Valley.
Gasoline prices up slightly
A gallon of unleaded gasoline in the East Valley costs an average of $2.34, up 2 cents from last week and up 26 cents from a year ago, according to AAA Arizona.
While the cost of gas is higher in the East Valley as a whole this week, prices dropped by about a penny in Scottsdale to $2.40 per gallon. The average price of a gallon of gas statewide is $2.39, up 2.5 cents from last week, and the same as the national average.
Semiconductor spending to rise
Capital spending by the semiconductor industry is expected to expand 10 percent this year to $50.4 billion, according to IC Insights, a Scottsdale-based industry research firm.
The prediction is up from a 4 percent increase the company forecast in January. If this year's capital spending reaches expectations, it would be second only to the $60.3 billion spent in 2000.
The firm said the industry is not likely to build too much production capacity in 2006 because worldwide sales are expected to expand about 8 percent. However, overcapacity in specific market segments such as flash memory is still a potential problem, the company said.
InPlay reports net income up
InPlay Technologies, a Mesa-based developer of electronic switches and pen computing products, reported net income Thursday of $118,000, or 1 cent a share, in the fourth quarter ended Dec. 31. That compared with a net loss of $924,000, or 10 cents a share in the same quarter the previous year.
Revenue for the fourth quarter was $3.2 million compared with $198,000 in the same period during 2004.
For all of 2005, the company reported net income of $668,000, or 7 cents a share, on revenue of $6.5 million. Revenue the previous year was $1.8 million.
Attendants approve deal
After 2 1 /2 years of negotiations, Alaska Airlines flight attendants have reached a tentative agreement with the company's management on a new contract, the Association of Flight Attendants said Thursday.
The pact includes a wage increase for flight attendants and other improvements, said Veda Shook, president of the union's Alaska Airlines Master Executive Council.
Details of the agreement will be released following ratification by the attendants, the union said.
A tentative agreement was rejected last year by the membership.

Growing fruit trees in Montana is challenging. The short growing season will severely limit your choice of varieties if you goal is to actually harvest a crop. Even those hardy varieties that can survive the Montana winter and produce fruit quickly will need extra care if you want your fruit trees to thrive. Dry conditions, high pH soil, and hungry wildlife are other hurdles you must overcome if you want to grow fruit trees in Montana. Many will find the extra effort is worth it.
Looking at a high level growing zone map, it will roughly look like the northern half of the state is in growing Zone 3, and the southern half is in Zone 4. There is also a relatively small part of the state tucked away on the western side that falls into Zone 5. Don't depend on this high level view, though. All across Montana, there are micro climates. Within just a few miles, the growing season can range anywhere from 30 days up to 130 days. Temperatures can vary up to 20 degrees in areas very close together. If you are going to take the time (years) and dedication to grow fruit trees, invest some time up front to understand what climate you will be growing in. If the high level maps show you are in Zone 3, but your area is really more like zone 4, you may be limiting your options needlessly. If the big maps show Zone 4, but you are really in a Zone 3, you could end up with unhealthy, non-producing trees. Check with the Montana State University Extension program for their publication on "The Climate Atlas of Montana."
Zone 3:
Zone 3 options for fruit trees are limited to a few varieties or apples, and one variety of crab-apple. McIntosh Apples have a long and storied history in Montana, though some other varieties are better adapted to the colder parts of the state. Gravenstein, Haralson and Yellow Transparent are the hardiest options, but you should also be able grow Honeycrisps, Snow Fameuse and Wolf River varieties.
If you don't mind the tartness, you might want to also consider the hardy Dolgo crab-apple tree. In addition the the fruit, this tree serves as a pollinator for other apple trees.
Zone 4:
Your options in Zone 4 are much wider. You have all of the options available to Zone 3, but there are another dozen or so apple varieties that you can choose from including Breaburn, Cortland, Orange Pippin, Gala, Liberty, McIntosh, Mutsu, Northern Spy, Red Delicious, Red Johnathan and others. You can also add Snowdrift and Prairiefire crab-apples to you list. Check with a local nursery to get recommendations and options.
In Zone 4, you can also grow a number of Apricot, Pear and Plumb varieties. For Apricots, you can grow Chinese, Gold Cot, Goldbar, Goldstrike, Moorpark and Tomcots. Pear varieties include Bartlett, Bosc, Comice, D'Anjou, Kieffer and Shinko. Your plumb options are Green Gage-Bavays, Methley and Superior.
For cherry trees, the sour Montmorency is your best bet, but you should also be able to grow the sweet Rainier and Van varieties. Reliance Peach trees may also produce for you, but be sure your soil has a pH under 7.
Other Options:
If you are willing to consider options other than fruit trees, your choices will widen dramatically. Non-tree fruit plants that you can grow in Montana include blueberries (sometimes called huckleberries), currants, gooseberries, grapes, raspberries and strawberries. Some varieties of these fruits will produce abundantly in either Zone 3 or Zone 4. The Low Bush Blueberry is native to Montana, and it has a high tolerance for cold weather. The Brandywine Raspberry is another cold hardy plant you may wish to consider. Check with your local plant nursery, or do some research in gardening catalogs or on the Internet to make sure you pick a berry variety that will produce and survive in your zone.
If your heart is set on trees, you may wish to consider a few nut trees. The Filbert tree is native to Montana and will produce sweet nuts with a thin shell. Black Walnut trees and Chinese Chestnut trees are cold hardy and produce well in Montana.
The soil in many parts of Montana has an elevated pH level. This will stunt the growth of your fruit trees. Have your soil pH level tested, and amend as needed. Sulfur amendments will bring down the pH level and help your trees to grow and produce better.
Wrapping your trees will help them to survive the cold Montana winters. The large temperature changes can cause the trunk to crack. This weakens the tree and makes it easier for rodents and other creature to feed on the living part of the tree. To help with this issue, simply use a tree wrap from late fall to early spring.
Understand your trees pollination requirements. Many fruit trees cannot self pollinate, and they need other varieties to be growing nearby. Even trees that can self pollinate often produce better when near other varieties.
There is nothing like growing your own fruit. While the climate in Montana may limit your options, and require a little more work, there is no reason why you cannot enjoy fresh fruit from your own trees. As it takes years to grow producing fruit trees, take the time up front to make sure you choose varieties that will produce in your climate. Also take the time to understand what other steps you will need to do in order to enjoy those delicious fruits of your labor.

Ray Lavender - Put It Down ft. T-Pain
Artist: Ray Lavender
Featuring: T-Pain
Producer: T-Pain
Album: Ray Lavender
Avg Rating: 3.6 ( 58 votes )
If you have a copy of T-Pain's Epiphany available, put it in your CD player and skip to track number nine. Once the song begins to play you'll notice that it's a collaborative effort, featuring Konvict crooner Ray Lavender on the hook. And while the track was never pushed as a single off Epiphany, it has been resurrected for placement on Ray L's forthcoming self-titled debut. In addition to renaming his album (formerly titled X-Rayted), the Atlanta native reworked the T-Pain production, writing two full verses to compliment his previously-penned hook. Accompanying his current radio single, Stay (for which he just shot a video), Put It Down shows off Ray's vocal abilities, in addition to capturing his talents as a song-writer.

Religion and Happiness: Further Thoughts
Why are a happiest countries also a slightest eremite ones? Both complacency and religiosity are influenced by a rarely grown impression of these countries. All measure tighten to a tip on a UN's tellurian growth index that measures a altogether peculiarity of life in terms of health, wealth, and education.
Residents of rarely grown countries are happy since their peculiarity of life is better. The pivotal means competence be an expectancy of vital to aged age though fear of impassioned poverty. Because they are assured in their possess welfare, they have reduction need of sacrament as a compose for a problems of life.
Religion as confidence blanket
In widely review progressing posts, we argued that a simple psychological duty of sacrament is coping with anxiety. More specifically, it helps people to understanding with a stress of doubt from third-world vital conditions. In countries with a improved customary of living, simple anxieties about food supply and illness incline and sacrament fades along with them (2).
Religion has a primary balmy duty rather like a confidence sweeping from that a tiny child derives comfort. We now have good systematic justification that eremite rituals and request work in only this way. Each produces a negligence of heart rate and other signs of physiological relaxing (3).
Religion functions as a form of emotion-focused coping identical to anti-anxiety drugs. When a chairman has a frightening experience, they are probable to complete a request (if religious) – or to take alcoholic drink. War is pronounced to be so frightening that everybody gets sacrament (i.e., no atheists in foxholes, or trenches).
Religion and ethanol substantially have their uses in assisting people to cope with unequivocally upsetting practice in their lives. Yet, there are pitfalls to relying on possibly as a repair for long-lived problems such as wretchedness and high child mortality.
Alcoholism is a self-destructive illnesses that spreads wretchedness of a own. It creates problems rather than elucidate them. Religion may, or competence not, means a lot of wretchedness depending on either one blames incompatible faith systems for eremite wars, or either sacrament is merely a badge like ethnicity.
The genuine problem with sacrament as a coping plan is that it gets in a approach of being active about elucidate problems. Instead of fantasizing about being reunited with passed children, it competence be improved to takes stairs that revoke child mankind as a Gates Foundation and others are doing in sub-Saharan Africa.
Similarly, flourishing an trembler is some-more expected if one lives in an earthquake-proof home. People who rest on sacrament to save them are rowdiness themselves. That is because an trembler distinguished Haiti has a most aloft genocide fee than one of equal bulk distinguished California where homes are built to be upheaval proof.
In conclusion, if we are in a unequivocally bad situation, we feel unfortunate though sacrament relieves despair. The problem is that eremite people are fatalistic and do not do adequate to urge their lives by elucidate unsentimental problems. Hence a misery, and religiosity of bad countries in contrariety to their grown counterparts that are happier and reduction religious.
Is it improved to use emotion-focused coping, or to solve a unsentimental problems that emanate so most nonessential wretchedness in a world?

I ordered the dress in ivory and royal blue colors. To my surprise it arrived on time. Although many people commented that the custom made dresses came exactly their size I decided to take a regular one and to fix it with local tailor. According to the measure tablet my size was in between size 6 and 8, so I ordered size 8 to be on the safe side. It came big on me and I took it to a tailor, it was not hard to fix. If you are not sure about the size take the bigger one as it is much easier to fix rather than if the dress comes small on you.
I would recommend to take a petticoat with this dress as it looks much better with it. I ordered the following one and it perfectly suited the dress shape making it more puffy.
I will rate the dress with 5 stars as I was really very much happy with my purchase. After this dress I ordered two others, and the quality was always good.
Being very happy with my first experience, I ordered many other things for my wedding from LTB including invitation cards, wedding glasses, favors, veil, bridal gloves.
I would like to add that all of my three separate orders from LTB came on time, I had to pay very small taxes (the products were shipped to Abu Dhabi, UAE). The support team was very helpful (special thanx to Nancy that helped me a lot to select the right size for my wedding dress).
I have already recommended this website to my friends, and myself am looking forward to make new purchases from here :)

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) - The East Baton Rouge Parish School Board has narrowed the list to six semifinalists in its search for a new superintendent.
The list includes two candidates, Herman Brister Sr. and Maria Pitre-Martin, who are either working or have worked for the parish school system; two sitting superintendents from small to midsize districts in Georgia
and Texas; the chief of staff of the large Baltimore school system, and the communications chief of the county school system in Charleston, S.C.
Interviews for the six are likely to begin next week, but dates have not been set. After those interviews, the board plans to narrow the field to perhaps three finalists.
