Pinker Steps Up Against Harvard Anti-Israel BDS
Paul wrote yesterday about the mendacity of the Israel BDS ("Boycott, Divest, Sanctions") movement at Harvard, where the presence of a water dispenser made by an Israeli-based company in Harvard dining halls was called a "microaggression" by the permanently aggrieved. Late yesterday the widely noted psychologist Steven Pinker stepped up, writing to Harvard's president Drew Faust and provost Alan Garber to protest in the strongest possible terms against capitulating to »
Water machines as microaggression
Increasingly, we hear the term "microaggression" tossed around by the infantile left. But what does it mean? As far as I can tell, a microaggression is an affront — real or imagined for the sake of being affronted — so trivial that few stable adults would notice it and none would give it a second thought. When the term is used, the only aggression in sight is that committed by »
Ms. Glick dissents
The Jerusalem Post's Herb Keinon moderated a panel at the Post's diplomatic conference in Jerusalem on Thursday. On this panel Danish Ambassador Jesper Vahr expounded on the wisdom of the European Union's application of a double standard to Israel. Senior contributing editor Caroline Glick angrily demurred. The Jerusalem Post covers it here. It's an interesting exchange that warrants a look. UPDATE: Tom Wilson comments insightfully on this exchange at Commentary. »
Questions that perplex Biden
Following up on the adjacent post, I want to note that Vice President Biden keynoted the Saban Forum conference in Washington this past Sunday afternoon. The Saban Forum is an annual event including American and Israeli leaders from across the political and social spectrum, organized by Haim Saban and the Center for Middle East Policy at the Brookings Institution. The White House has posted the text of Biden's remarks here. »
U.S. Sanctions against Iran? What's that about?
As John has noted, the Obama administration is contemplating the imposition of sanctions on Israel as a response to new settlement construction in the West Bank and East Jerusalem. So says Haaretz, a reliable Israeli source. When asked about this report, White House press secretary Josh Ernest did not deny it. Neither did the State Department's spokesperson Marie Harf. At a minimum, then, President Obama wants Israel to believe that »
Obama Reportedly Considering Sanctions Against Israel
Russia is gobbling up much of Ukraine. China is putting growing pressure on its neighbors in East Asia. ISIS is chopping the heads off Americans. Syria's government continues to slaughter thousands of its citizens. Iran is working feverishly on a bomb and running circles around our negotiators. Boko Haram is wreaking havoc in Nigeria. Hamas is raining rockets and missiles down on its neighbors. And the Obama administration reportedly is »
Iran's win-win
The deadline for reaching a deal with Iran over its nuclear program expires today without the parties having reached a negotiated agreement. The negotiating period will be extended until July 1 of next year. This development is being reported as "no deal," but there actually is a deal of sorts here. According to the British foreign secretary, Iran will receive about $700 million per month in frozen assets. In exchange, »
No, Obama is not culpable for the Jerusalem Synagogue Attack
Our "picks" section today featurs an article by Jeff Dunetz claiming that President helped incite Tuesday's deadly attack on a Jerusalem synagogue. It's a provacative piece worthy of your attention. I disagree, however, with the view that Obama helped incite the attack or is otherwise culpable for it. Obama has not, of course, advcoated that Palestinians attack Israeli Jews. Moreover, Obama hasn't said anything that rationally justifies attacks. Dunetz focuses »
Iran and Israel, Compare and Contrast
As Scott noted earlier today, the Obama administration's warm attitude toward Iran's mullahs has been in the news. Its view of Israel, on the other hand, is much chillier. Last night, General Martin Dempsey, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, gave a talk in which he lauded Israel's avoidance of civilian casualties during the recent Gaza conflict, and stated that the U.S. military has sent a team of experts »
Chickenshit coming home to roost
Let us recall Reverend Jeremiah Wright's disquisition on American foreign policy in which he explicated the text of Malcolm X in his Nation of Islam phase: "America's chickens are coming home to roost." It was Wright's post 9/11 sermon. Thus spake Obama's pastor (video here): "What Malcolm X said when he got silenced by Elijah Muhammad was in fact true: America's chickens are coming home to roost." Wright expounded on »
A twisted administration
The twisted mentality of the Obama administration is prominently on display in Jeffrey Goldberg's summary of his conversations with senior officials posted here. Anonymously describing Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu as "chickenshit," one senior official serves up a pure case of projection, and another senior administration official seconds him (or her). It is as if Obama himself had dismissed someone as "arrogant," or Joe Biden disparaged anyone as "stupid," or John »
Who's a Chickenshit?
In case you missed it, the Obama administration (a "senior administration official") has gone on record calling Benjamin Netanyahu a "chickenshit." Somehow, that seems like a poor–not to mention vulgar–turn of phrase. The Netanyahu family is not known for its "chickenshit" qualities. Let's just say that in his youth, Benjamin did not belong to a "Choom Gang." Mark Hemingway responds on Twitter: Sure, that chickenshit PM was IDF special forces, »
Fordham prof investigated for "religious discrimination" based on opposing boycott of Israel
Doran Ben-Atar, a professor of history at Fordham University, is an outspoken opponent of calls by the American Studies Association (ASA) for a boycott of Israel's academic institutions. And wisely so. The boycott is an affront to the free exchange of ideas that should be at the heart of the academic mission. The affront is so obvious that the boycott has failed to gain much traction, for now at least, »
Speaking of "near certainty"
Alan Dershowitz's Wall Street Journal column "The education of a wartime president" is behind the Journal's subscription paywall but is easily accessible via Google. I learned something from it and urge readers to check it out. It is an important column, deserving of extended discussion in a couple of respects. I want to take it up by annotating it with relevant links. Professor Dershowitz introduces his subject with an Obama »
Netanyahu Instructs Obama and MSNBC
Yesterday Benjamin Netanyahu appeared on Andrea Mitchell's MSNBC program. While not as obviously loony as some MSNBC hosts, Mitchell is a loyal Democratic Party soldier, and she aggressively parroted Barack Obama's criticisms of Israel. With his usual cogency, Netanyahu set her straight. It would be nice if Obama would view the tape, but I suspect his ignorance is impenetrable. First, a couple of the exchanges, then on to the video: »
Netanyahu's timely reminder
Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu addressed the United Nations this afternoon (video below). The prime minister's office has posted the text here. As is just about always the case, everything he has to say is worthwhile. In part his speech responds to Mahmoud Abbas's imputation of "war crimes" and "genocide" against Israel in the same forum this past Friday. Of most interest, however, is Netanyahu's discussion of Iran in the context »
A salute to Michele Bachmann
Our chapter of the Republican Jewish Coalition saluted retiring Sixth District Rep. Michele Bachmann this past Sunday night. Since her election to Congress in 2006 — she first spoke to us that December, before she took office — Michele has been our favorite speaker. By my count, this was at least her sixth appearance before us. No one else comes close. We are grateful for her heartfelt and eloquent support »

25 December 2014
The Central Java Pavilion presents eight traditional buildings: 'the Pendopo Agung' (open veranda serves as an audience hall) is the main building, 'pringgitan' (open structure behind the pendopo for showing puppets play), 'tajuk Mangkurat' (Mangkurat's crown), 'Sasono Suko', 'Joglo pengrawit apitan', 'dara gepak' (the fluttering doves), Kudus traditional house and 'Ojo Dumeh' open stage. Moreover, the Pavilion also presents the 'Borobudur', 'Prambanan', and 'Mendut' Temples in miniature.
The 'Pendopo Agung' is a building without walls with a 'joglo' roof, an imitation of the 'pendhapa' of the 'Mangkunegaraan Palace' in Surakarta. It is supported by four 'saka guru' (pillars) decorated with carvings with two broken fragments of the roofs; the 'penanggap' is supported by 12 (twelve) 'saka goco' and the 'penitih' supported by 12 (twelve) 'saka rawa'. According to its function, the 'pendopo' is used for official meetings and to present traditional art and ritual ceremonies. The 'pringgitan' is connected at the back of the 'pendopo', with a 'limas' (pyramid) roof and is used to display a collection of traditional costumes.
The multipurpose hall 'joglo pengrawit apitan' is a building with four pillars (saka guru) and used as the place for the 'gamelan' when there is a performance at the open stage, the dressing room for the dancers or artists before performing at the open stage, to store equipments and tools and to demonstrate the making of a 'wayang kulit' (puppet made of leather), 'batik' and to display tourism objects in Central Java.
On the right front side of the 'Pendopo Agung' is the 'tajuk Mangkurat' building with four 'saka guru'. This building's model is called 'tajuk Mangkurat' because the 'saka guru' use the 'lambang sari' (symbol of life) design-referring to the intimate and harmonious relationship between husband and wife as the firm base for a sound family life. People say that it was 'Sultan Agung' who designed the form and style of the building. The building is used to carry out administrative work, as a library and a place to store a collection of antique articles and handicraft products.
On the right side, behind of the 'Pendopo Agung' stands a building, a rural house called 'dara gepak' (the fluttering doves), resembling a piegon's stall. it has eight 'saka guru', surrounded by a 'penanggap'; roof with 16 (sixteen) 'saka penanggah'; and function as a restaurant and cafetraia serving typical Central Java dishes and drinks.
An open stage facing north with the 'kala makara' as the background and the 'ojo dumeh' inscription (do not be arrogant) on it, is used to present art performances in the evening with a capacity of 500 seats.
Every Sundays and holidays, the Pavilion exhibits and sells various handicrafts and typical dishes from each regency/municipality and performs traditional arts.

I ordered 2 air mattresses to use in a second house. we used the air pump and aired them both up. we were inside on carpet and only one person slept on the bed. the next morning one was almost out of air while the other did not lose much air. one needs to be returned and i will keep the other one. both persons weighed under 150 lbs. I would not recommend them to another person.
Not a queen size, had to replace the air every night. Did end up developing a tear in one of the seams after two weeks of sleeping on it. A patch wouldn't fix it, and I still have the slow leak that it came with.
We slept on this mattress for 1 week at our sons apartment and we both have bad backs. We did not have any problems and slept through the night.
I bought this to use at our lake house while painting before we put in furniture. It sleeps great, I usually sleep on a water bed and this is about as close as you can get without the water. It was definately worth the costr.
the price &product are unbeatable I was very pleased
Need an extra bed for the holidays it sleeps gray and the sheets Does not slip off. The adults were happy to have it.
Had this sent to my daughter for when I came to visit. I used it 2 nights, next time 2 nights the last night lost all air and would not inflate!
I took this out of state for use, but had followed all tips/use instructions beforehand. It needs more air every night and was far from comfortable since too soft caused back ache. When the deal sounds too good to be true...
This was a very good buy and worth the money. I love it!

The nation's top business lobbyist today called on the Obama administration and Congress to adopt a "robust trade expansion program" and create as many as 20 million U.S. jobs over the next decade.
"We need a smarter, broader, more comprehensive approach, a robust trade expansion agenda built on the experience of free trade agreements across the globe," U.S. Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Thomas J. Donohue said at the National Press Club.
The U.S., he warned, is falling behind in international markets, as free trade agreements among other countries proliferate and tariffs on U.S. products remain in place. "U.S. trade policy seems stuck in suspended animation," he said. "There' a lot of talk, but precious little action."
There are 262 free trade agreements in place around the world, he said, citing World Trade Organization reports, and the U.S. only has 11 pacts covering 17 countries. Many developing parts of the world, especially Asia, are beginning to meet local consumer demand with their own products, not U.S. imports.
The European Union is preparing to sign a free trade agreements with Columbia and already has one with South Korea, he pointed out, while U.S. trade agreements with those countries remain parked in Congress.
Congressional approval of those treaties should be the first plank in a broader trade agenda, Donohue said.
"It is inexcusable for Congress and the administration to be sitting on three excellent free trade agreements," said Donohue. Without the U.S. pacts, "the EU will be able to sell products in those markets at a much better price" than U.S. companies, he said.
In a study released today, the chamber claims 5.4 million U.S. jobs are supported directly by increased trade brought about by the 14 free trade agreements the U.S. has negotiated. A total of 17.7 million jobs depend on that trade, Donohue said.
"No other budget-neutral government initiative has generated anywhere near that number of jobs," he said, adding, "If we don't act we will not only miss out on opportunities to create new jobs, we will lose existing jobs" to international competitors.
The U.S. lost roughly 8 million jobs in the past two years, he said, "and we will need to create 20 million in the next decade to replace those jobs and keep up with growth."
Donohue's chamber has clashed with the Obama administration repeatedly over issues such as climate change and energy legislation and financial reform, but it backs Obama's call to double U.S. exports within the next five years and create 2 million jobs.
"Expanding U.S. exports makes more sense than ever," he said. The president's initiative "echoes" a goal set by the chamber earlier this year, he said.
He also gave the administration credit for its effort to modernize the U.S. export control regime to ease controls on widely available, non-military technologies, while urging it to do more to open markets overseas and protect U.S. intellectual property rights.
Donohue did have some tough words for labor leaders who oppose free trade agreements. "Union leaders must accept the reality that their members' jobs depend on the growth of global trade," he said.

The movie world is a strange place. There are the superhumanly suave movie stars, of course—hey, there's one on the right—but there are also regular people who eat and breathe and sometimes make goofy facial expressions.
And when they end up in the same photo, it's hilarious.
This one comes from a party last week for Melancholia. Alexander SkarsgĂĄrd was dressed for the occasion in a gunmetal YSL suit, looking as if he'd just stepped out of a cologne ad. 30 Rock's Jack McBrayer looked a little bit goofier, as if he'd just stepped out of… well, 30 Rock. It's quite a contrast, but somehow, each of them manages to make the other one look cooler—even as Mr. McBrayer seems to be fighting to keep control of his hands.
Ever the gentleman, SkarsgĂĄrd was unfazed. Well played, sir.

- Price from 50 EUR / Day
- Capacity up to 4 people
- 2 bedrooms & 1 bathroom
Last updated: 07/29/2009
This is your property ?
Discover the beautiful Valencian countryside with our illustrated self-guided walks. The area offers breathtaking views and stunning scenery. Based just 5kms from the cosmopolitan city of Gandia and 17 sandy beaches, your accommodation is in a traditional newly renovated Valencian townhouse, which will sleep 4 ( and is in a quiet area in the historic part of Palma de Gandia, a small pueblo sheltering under the Safor mountains and surrounded by orange groves which stretch down to the sea.
Ideally placed to discover the many National Parks and Nature Reserves of the Valencian countryside: the Costa del Azahar (Orange Blossom Coast), the Costa Blanca areas and the inland sierras around the Alcoy, Bocairent and Quadratonda areas.
You will discover rugged mountain ridges, craggy limestone peaks and pinnicles, deep gorges, and soft sandstone ranges. Other walks will take into fertile valleys, paddy fields, orange and olive groves and the history of Spain will enfold before your eyes: pre-historic caves, snow wells (neveras), old medieval forts, deserted towns and Arab castles. You will not be disappointed.
There are short strolls to 5hr hikes so there is something for everyone's ability.
These self guided walks will allow you the unique opportunity to explore these landscapes and experience the Spain long forgotten.
Where the sun shines 300 days of the year this is an incredibly green region and sustains a variety of wildlife, flora and fauna.
If you get tired of walking the nearest beach is 5kms away where you can rest or perhaps a bit of sightseeing there is plenty to history for you to take in and Valencia is only 40 minutes away on the train.
Some walks will pass through nature reserves where buzzards, kestrels, peregrines and griffon vultures can be seen. Wild boar, lynx, rabbits, hares and the odd wandering group of goats and sheep roam and geckos lay out on open ground sunning themselves. In spring, the area is heady with the exotic aroma of orange and almond blossom: herbs lavender, rosemary and thyme and wild orchids, broom, foxgloves and poppies and ferns hide in the fissures of the limestone. In the autumn the green leaves of the trees show their amazing vibrant colours with low lying scrub such as hornthorn, juniper and wild roses display their berries.
If you get tired or want a change, the beach is only 5kms away. Valencia is just 40 minutes on the train where you can do a self-guided walk around the city sights or be part of the café culture and take in some museums and art galleries. There are plenty of Theme Parks and Safari Parks to entertain you.
With lots of illustrated walks, most paths are clearly waymarked: PRV or GR routes - others are following the old Arab or Mozarabic trails which zig zags across the countryside.
The easy strolls are often short but may be a little steep in short sections. The moderate walks are more demanding and are for experienced fell walkers. The very difficult walks are often poorly waymarked where you will have to have a good sense of direction: are often high level walking footpaths and screes and which are for experienced mountain walkers.
When can you walk? Anytime! However, we recommend autumn, winter and spring being the best times: with the summer months being very hot so if you do contemplate this time of year, it is advisable to get on the hills or mountains early in the morning, take plenty of water, and aim to finish your walk at lunchtime.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Walking with Dinosaurs: The Movie(2013)
Action, adventure, documentary feature, based on the 1999 BBC documentary series, which projects computer-animated dinosaurs into live action settings to tell the story of a young Pachyrhinosaurus. Patchi and his siblings Scowler and Juniper are born into the dangerous world of the Cretaceous period, where predators such as Gorgon the Gorgosaurus would be only too happy to make a meal of them. Can Patchi make it to adulthood and overcome the many hurdles required to become herd leader?

Walking with Dinosaurs: The Movie Blu-ray Review
Stumbling is more like it.
Reviewed by Jeffrey Kauffman, March 25, 2014
It's probably just an unfortunate coincidence that Karl Urban, the actor playing "Bones" McCoy in Star Trek and Star Trek Into Darkness, plays a paleontologist in bookending sequences that surround the main story in Walking With Dinosaurs. "Bones" McCoy might have made one of his infamous "he's dead, Jim" (or perhaps more appropriately "it's dead, Jim") pronouncements about this visually spectacular but relentlessly dunderheaded film which combines CGI dinosaurs (and other primeval beasts) with live action backgrounds. Walking With Dinosaurs began life as a 1999 documentary series produced by the BBC and narrated by Kenneth Branagh (I have a vague recollection of having actually reviewed the series back in the DVD era for another site, but I can't find evidence of that particular fossil). The television series was made at the relative dawn of the CGI era, and so suffered somewhat from some rendering issues which hobbled an otherwise laudable, and at times incredibly informative, look at our prehistoric nemeses. Technology has of course advanced by leaps and bounds since the late nineties, but unfortunately you can't force screenwriters to similarly up their technique, and Walking With Dinosaurs is about as rote as you can get from a storytelling perspective. Even worse, evidently after some early test screenings put the fear of God (and/or low box office receipts) into Fox executives, the film was retooled, omitting what was planned to be a largely purely visual experience (with some occasional narration) into a voiceover filled carnival for actors like John Leguizamo. The executives may have thought that having the various characters "speak" would help the film's accessibility, especially for younger audiences, and yet these same bean counters wouldn't spring for additional animation to actually have the characters' mouths move, and so we get what is in essence a "narrated" film that simply features lots of different narrators, all evidently telepathically communicating with each other.
The opening sequence features Urban as paleontologist Zack, who is bringing his nephew and niece to a dig site in the wilds of Alaska, though only his niece seems excited by the prospect. When they arrive at a trailhead, Zack and the girl take off while the teenaged boy stays behind, at which point a talking (wellthere's talking, but no lip movement) crow arrives to get the kid interested in prehistoric times. The crow morphs into a primeval bird named Alex (voiced by John Leguizamo), who then introduces the audience to the main thrust of the story.
Alex's best buddy turns out to be a young dinosaur named Patchi (Justin Long), the runt in a litter of Pachyrhinosauruses (some of the character names are "cutesy" shorthand for their species). Patchi is regularly picked on by his Alpha male big brother Scowler, but that doesn't diminish Patchi's enthusiastic attempts to explore the world beyond his nest. That pioneer spirit actually ends up getting him in trouble right off the bat, including being attacked by a kind of weird ostrich looking creature that ends up ripping a hole in Patchi's cartilaginous "mane" that gives him a distinctive "see through" appearance. Patchi also ends up getting pooped on by a huge dinosaur, a sad situation which some older viewers may feel like they're sharing, figuratively at least.
Patchi soon develops a crush on another Pachyrhinosaurus named Juniper (Tiya Sircar), though she belongs to another herd and soon migrates south, seeming to put her out of her would be boyfriend's reach. Patchi's father, who is the leader of Patchi's herd, decides that moving south is also a good idea, but tragedy soon strikes, leaving Patchi and Scowler to fend for themselves. There's at least a bit of a silver lining when Patchi is soon reunited with Juniper, but a selfish decision on the part of Scowler temporarily puts Patchi and Juniper in danger. Much later, another selfish decision on the part of Scowler would seem to threaten what Patchi has always felt was his destiny to settle down with Juniper.
Walking With Dinosaurs ticks off virtually every expected box that this type of "family adventure film" tends to offer. There's the occasional gross out humor, as evidenced by the poop sequence, the devastating death of the parents (if that's considered a spoiler, sorry, but it's so completely predictable I can't get too worked up about it), the sibling rivalry that ends up with the underdog (or underdinosaur, as the case may be) triumphing in the end, and the occasional misadventure that act mostly as sidebars. Aside from the aforementioned high parental mortality rate, Walking With Dinosaurs also mimics Disney's iconic Bambi in one other central way, by positing a raging forest fire as a major set piece.
While Walking With Dinosaurs is relentlessly formulaic in just about every imaginable way, it also does something a bit strange in terms of an ostensibly narrative film, indulging in a technique that harkens back to its television source elements: whenever a new dinosaur wanders onto the screen, the action stopsas in literally stops, with freeze framesat which point the beast is labeled and its eating habits are described (as in whether it's a carnivore, herbivore or omnivore). At certain junctures, even more ancillary information is imparted, like how much an individual species would tower over a human. It automatically creates a lurching feeling with regard to the already precarious dramatic momentum the film struggles to achieve. It's certainly laudable that educational information is being imparted, but it's done in an extremely clunky manner this way.
What rescues Walking With Dinosaurs at least somewhat, and what will probably recommend the film to families with younger, dinosaur obsessed, children is the film's stunning visuals. The CGI here is really well done, with excellent characterization and good attention to detail. The integration with the live action backgrounds is also handled artistically, ably recreating an antediluvian world that often seems unexpectedly real. Unfortunately there's no actual story here to support the visuals, but at least receptive tots may learn a bit about Greek roots as they're introduced to various genii and species throughout the film.
Walking with Dinosaurs: The Movie Blu-ray, Video Quality
Walking With Dinosaurs is presented on Blu-ray courtesy of 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment with an AVC encoded 1080p transfer in 2.39:1. Whatever the dramatic failings of this retooled version (see our Walking With Dinosaurs: The Movie 3D Blu-ray review for information on the "original" cut of the film, which is available on that edition as a supplement), there's not much to complain about with regard to the film's high definition presentation. Colors are bright, bold and vividly saturated, and the CGI offers some exceptionally well done detail. The live action footage is seamlessly blended with the animation, and several of the outdoor vistas offer superb depth of field. The overall image is sharp and precise, though there are a couple of very minor stability issues when the camera pans across some landscapes.
Walking with Dinosaurs: The Movie Blu-ray, Audio Quality
Walking With Dinosaurs' lossless DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 mix is fantastic as far as the film's foley effects and score are concerned, though somewhat less so with regard to what often seems like slathered on voiceovers. Several key sequences, including some dino on dino battles as well as the aforementioned forest fire, feature superb immersion and surround activity as well as some very effective LFE. Dialogue is always cleanly presented, and is occasionally fairly directional as well, but considering none of the creatures' mouths ever move, it just seems ridiculous after a while. Fidelity is top notch however, and dynamic range is extremely wide.
Walking with Dinosaurs: The Movie Blu-ray, Special Features and Extras
Walking with Dinosaurs: The Movie Blu-ray, Overall Score and Recommendation
Had Walking With Dinosaurs been allowed to debut without the added voice work, it would have been a much more effective piece, as the "Cretaceous Cut" included on the 3D edition more than proves. What's here is visually spectacular, but the pasted on story via the "dialogue" actually detracts from some relatively solid, if patently derivative, storytelling. The technical merits of this Blu-ray are top notch, so fans of the film can purchase with confidence, and dinosaur aficionados with smaller children may want to check this out as well. Get the 3D edition in any casethe included "Cretaceous Cut" is a significant bonus, and the 3D version has included 2D versions anyway, so even if your home theater setup isn't 3D compatible, you'll be fine.

Frequently Asked QuestionsBelow are answers to some important questions about specific aspects of the strategy.
The World Bank's support to countries for social protection and labor (SPL) is based on the premise that effective SPL policies and programs help create the resilience, equity, and access to jobs and opportunities essential to save lives, reduce poverty, and promote sustainable growth.
At the World Bank, SPL encompasses support for three groups of activities:
Disability is a cross-cutting theme across the practice.
Note that health insurance issues are primarily covered by the Health, Nutrition and Population sector of the World Bank.
The World Bank provides client country governments with knowledge services, technical assistance and financial assistance. In the latter area, there has been over US$4 billion in lending every year over FY09-11 - partly driven by crisis-related demands. The SPL sector now accounts for almost a tenth of Bank lending, with a portfolio of operational work and analytical and advisory activities in every region. The SPL portfolio has remained one of the best performing in the Bank, with 89 percent of projects assessed as satisfactory.
What is the Bank's value added in SPL?
The Bank brings four sets of strengths and experience to its SPL support to client countries:
Why do you need a new SPL strategy? What is different about this strategy?
In 2001, the World Bank adopted its first strategy for social protection. Building on that work, experience over the last decade, and emerging global needs, the Bank has determined that its support for SPL needs to expand to a broader focus – incorporating risk reduction, poverty alleviation and growth promotion, and thus building resilience and opportunity for individuals and households. The strategy builds on the first strategy to stake out new ground: focusing on solutions through coherent SPL systems; increasing the emphasis on support to the poorest countries and poorest people, including those in the informal sector; and stressing the central role of jobs as pathways to opportunity.
What is the main direction of the strategy?
With its overarching goals of improving resilience, equity, and opportunity, the strategy is designed to help low-income and middle-income countries move from fragmented approaches to more harmonized SPL systems, making SPL more productive and more inclusive – of the very poor, disabled, people working in the informal sector, and in many cases, women -- and strengthening the focus on knowledge and results. The strategy is structured to be country-tailored, evidence-based, and collaborative.
Where do Social Safety Nets (SSN) fit in?
Social Safety Nets—also known as social assistance programs – are non-contributory transfer programs often targeted to the poor or vulnerable, such as cash transfers and conditional cash transfers, food-related programs, price and other subsidies, and public works. It should be noted that in the modern-day terminology, social safety nets (also called social assistance in some parts of the world) are permanent programs aimed at chronic and transitory poverty, not temporary measures aimed at bridging shocks.
The SPL strategy is built on the premise that social safety nets are one part of the broader social protection policy, and are complemented by contributory social insurance programs. Safety nets are critical during crisis and shocks, but are also integral elements of long-term social protection programs to protect the chronic poor from destitution, allow them to invest in themselves and their children, and protect all from individual and family-level shocks.
Who was consulted in the design of the strategy?
To ensure the most effective, transparent, and inclusive design for the strategy, the Bank engaged in global consultations with over 2,000 people worldwide, including members of government, civil society, academia, the private sector, and bilateral and multilateral development agencies. The Bank held 64 face-to-face events worldwide, reaching over 1,700 participants from 66 countries, and discussions with global trade unions, civil society organizations such as Save the Children, Help Age International and the Africa Social Protection Platform, UN agencies including ILO, UN Development Programme (UNDP), UN Children's Fund (UNICEF), and World Food Programme (WFP). We also convened an external SPL Advisory Group to marshal advice from academics, policy-makers, and civil society representatives, and used an online forum to engage across a range of stakeholders.
How will you measure the effectiveness of the strategy's implementation?
The success of the strategy will be measured through a set of performance indicators reflective of the SPL goals. Results will be regularly monitored using a results framework tracking Bank activities, changes in country outputs and outcomes attributable to Bank engagement, and medium to long-term country progress on sector development outcomes. Indicators will be regularly updated to track progress on results and to highlight areas that need attention. A five year update in 2017 will include a full review of the performance indicators.
What is the role of partnerships in the strategy and who are the principal partners?
The strategy is based on the premise that effective implementation requires open and mutual collaboration with key partners. At the global level, collaborating with multilateral and bilateral partners, complementing partner-based initiatives such as the UN-based Social Protection Floor Initiative, and drawing on support from collaborative donor arrangements such as the Rapid Social Response program, will be critical. At the country level, coordination among bilateral and multilateral agencies is essential to provide coherent assistance; and the Bank and other agencies need to coordinate to avoid contributing to fragmentation and to help develop SPL programs to scale. Private sector actors are critical partners to generate employment and growth and to develop innovative SPL solutions. Civil society organizations, trade unions and faith-based organizations are key actors in knowing the challenges, shaping opinion and representing excluded groups. The Bank will host an annual stakeholder gathering as a regular venue for engaging stakeholders, gathering lessons learned, and sharing and scaling up knowledge.
Which are the principal target countries for the new strategy? Does the strategy distinguish between middle-income and low-income countries?
Whereas much of the concentration over the last ten years for the Bank's work with client countries in social protection has been with middle income countries, the new strategy will also proactively include low income countries and fragile states without losing its presence and expertise on middle income countries. In that process, with the understanding that there is no "one size fits all" solution to social protection, the strategy will help ensure that approaches are appropriate given country circumstances and priorities, including institutions, administrative capacity, social compacts and political economy constraints.
How will the strategy be funded?
Additional internal World Bank budget is not requested for implementing the strategy, but a central catalyst for implementing a key aspect of the strategy would be the RSR trust fund (see question 12 below) providing small grants to set up basic buildings blocks for building SPL systems (especially in lower-income countries) and global knowledge-sharing in SPL, especially South-South. This funding is not needed for Bank operations, but for countries to meet their SPL goals, notably in IDA countries.
What other Bank funding instruments are available for countries?
Countries will be able to use lending and grant instruments appropriate to the task at hand, to couple catalytic funding with technical engagement in the design of effective operations. Sector investment loans and grants will continue to be needed, including for investing in administrative sub-systems. Policy-based loans and grants, a major element of World Bank SPL lending, will also continue to support reforms that support more effective SPL approaches and help countries respond to financing needs during downturns. The new program for results (P4R) instrument is particularly well-suited to the system-building agenda, as it takes a results-focused view across programs. Finally, technical assistance, capacity building and analytical work will serve as important complements.
How does the Rapid Social Response (RSR) program fit into the strategy?
RSR is a central pillar in donor efforts to make a difference in the world's poorer countries, and to help them prepare for inevitable shocks. The RSR is a program with $61.7 million in multi-donor trust fund resources, which provides catalytic resources in relatively small amounts to help low income countries begin building SPL systems and upgrade their capacity to deal with future crises. To date, RSR resources have been donated by the Russian Federation, Norway and the UK. Programs like the RSR are necessary complements to the sources of funding for SPL available to low-income countries for core SPL activities.
Which sectors need to be engaged in SPL policy and implementation?
For the SPL strategic approach, multi-sectorality is key, both within the Bank and as a support to cross-sectoral engagement within countries. Effective SPL results require prioritizing coordination across sectors and across a range of actors including global partners, national agents and CSOs. SPL systems are inherently multi-sectoral in nature – sometimes because SPL objectives need other sectors' instruments to be realized, and sometimes because SPL instruments serve the development objectives of other sectors. As a result, to both meet their own goals and those of their clients as a whole, World Bank teams will have to work with those in other sectors to best realize these important synergies, engaging with other human development sectors (education for access to schools; health for clinics and health insurance); and other sectors (financial sector; agriculture/rural; labor; environment and climate change etc.).
What is the relationship between the strategy and the findings of the forthcoming World Development Report (WDR) on jobs?
Creating good jobs – higher productivity jobs, with adequate working conditions and access to income protection -- is a multi-sector agenda. The Bank's MILES framework that aims to coordinate policies across sectors that affect the Macroeconomy, Investment in the business environment, Labor markets, Education and training systems, and Social protection remains valid. The aim of the new SPL strategy is to operationalize this framework and strengthen inter-sectoral collaboration within and outside the Bank. The WDR's research findings will influence the actual design of policy and operations in this area in the years to come.
How does the strategy promote gender equality, and how does it incorporate findings from the 2012 WDR on gender equality and development?
Gender is already mainstreamed in the Bank's SPL work. Based on that current approach, the strategy will help ensure gender equity in outcomes (education, health such as by differentiating payments between girls and boys in CCT programs), and in access (for example, in public work programs which often ensure that a certain percentage of those employed are female). A continued focus will be on instruments which serve to empower women, such as cash transfer payments to women.
How does the strategy consider equity issues?
The strategy considers equity through its focus on protecting against destitution and promoting equality of opportunity. Social assistance programs (non-contributory transfers also known as safety net programs – including cash transfers and in-kind transfers such as school feeding and targeted food assistance) alleviate poverty and protect against destitution. They also protect poor individuals and families from irreversible and catastrophic losses of human capital (nutrition, health and education), thereby contributing to equality of opportunity.
How does the strategy address the informal sector?
The strategy places particular emphasis on making social protection and labor more responsive, more productive, and more inclusive of excluded groups, including those in the informal sector; and will provide support for initiatives such as reforms to reduce fragmentation and enhance social insurance coverage to this vulnerable sector.
How does the strategy address mainstreaming for people with disabilities?
Disability is defined as negative interaction between a person with impairment due to a health condition and his/her environment, including built environment (buildings and roads), transport, information and communication and attitudes. The negative interaction limits participation of persons with impairment in social and economic life. The strategy will complement the Bank's ongoing support for disabilities in two ways: First, the strategy will help mainstream disability in the Bank's operational work to ensure that Bank-supported activities do not exclude persons with disability; and second, whenever relevant and in agreement with the respective governments, will include disability-specific activities in SPL operations.
How will the strategy help alleviate poverty, and address the structural causes of poverty?
While SPL policies and programs directly provide poverty-alleviating transfers to individuals and families, they can also be broadly transformative and reduce poverty by providing a foundation for inclusive growth and social stability. Social protection and labor contributes to growth by: building and protecting human capital; empowering poor individuals to invest or to adopt higher risk-higher return strategies; promoting greater labor market mobility; acting as stabilizers of aggregate demand or enhancing productive assets and infrastructure (for example, through public works); and reducing inequality in society.
How does the strategy consider the UN-based Social Protection Floor initiative?
As a multi-agency response to SPL issues, the prominent One-UN Social Protection Floor initiative (SPF-I) was adopted by the United Nations (UN) Chief Executives Board in April 2009. The SPL strategy is consistent with the core principles of the SPF-I, particularly through the strategy's emphasis on building inclusive, productive, responsive SPL programs and systems tailored to country circumstances. The Bank has been a strategic SPF-I partner, and has an important role to play in two ways – first, through helping countries who sign on to the SPF-I to operationalize the concept, and second, through knowledge sharing on the evidence of what works and what does not in different contexts. The Bank has been engaged in extensive dialogue at the global level and partnerships at the country level, and contributes to the initiative through knowledge generation and dissemination, and developing SPL data across countries.
How does the strategy help countries address Core Labor Standards?
To ensure that people are able to access opportunities, SPL systems will need to be more productivity-oriented, supporting human capital, productivity and longer-term growth in incomes. Enhancing productivity calls for a particular focus on children, as well as on productive jobs for all workers. Upholding core labor standards, including on child labor and equal opportunity at work, is a central area of this broader agenda. Specifically, the policies and programs supported by this strategy work multi-sectorally to ease the multiple determinants of child labor and unequal opportunity at work.
How does the strategy address vulnerabilities as a result of climate change?
SPL can play a direct role in developing adaptation measures, contributing to the construction of the appropriate infrastructure through public works programs. SPL can also play a role in mitigation, because SPL programs aim to protect all the vulnerable from income shocks and catastrophic losses of human capital, including those who suffered the consequences of climate change (loss of agricultural produce, victims of climate relate disasters).

We did have a brief respite yesterday when Keira and Miss B were invited over Miss C's house for the afternoon and we also went shopping today. I wanted to get Keira some more leggings since she doesn't seem to mind wearing them (though there is the occasional "they're falling!!" madness) and I ended up at Gap Kids because these caught my eye. I ended up buying the leggings there and a new dress on sale. After a few lackluster seasons and staying away from Gap Kids.. I was pleasantly surprised to see some terrific summer clothes for kids there today. I really wanted to get these super soft slim jeans for Keira and just when I thought I had her fooled into thinking they were leggings, she gave me her super serious voice and said, "They. Are. Pants." and walked away. Sigh.. I got the white jeggings though! haha..
Hopefully you all enjoyed your weekend!

Cool look, but not for me
"I ordered these shoes online because I really liked the patent sheen look. When they arrived, they we're just a little too big (I usually wear an 8.5 or 9 and I ordered a 9), so I went to a store and tried on a smaller size. They still seemed a little too long - I could see the beginning of my toe before the cap of the shoe. They made my feet look bigger than they are. After spending about 30 mins trying them on in different colors, I ended up returning them. I have to say I really liked the look of these shoes and I wanted to find a pair that worked, but in the end I decided they're just not for me. However, they might look great on someone else, so don't rule them out! Definitely try on in the store if you can."

Early Registration Extended for ITC
LOS ALAMITOS, Calif., 8 October, 2009 -- Significant discounts are still available for registering online for the IEEE Computer Society co-sponsored ITC Test Week now that the early registration deadline has been extended until 12 October.
Take advantage of the discounts and make your online hotel reservations. Test Week events will be held 1-6 November at the Austin Convention Center in Austin, Texas. View the Advance Program to find out more about the technical program, exhibits, and commemorative events taking place at ITC 2009.
The September/October issue of the IEEE Computer Society's Design & Test of Computers magazine features a special section of updated articles from last year's ITC. Two are tutorials: "Mixed-Signal Production Test: A Measurement Principle Perspective" and "Statistics in Semiconductor Test: Going Beyond Yield." A third article, "Multidimensional Test Escape Rate Modeling," presents a method for estimating the test escape rate of SoC devices.
International Test Conference, the cornerstone of TestWeek events, is the world's premier conference dedicated to the electronic test of devices, boards and systems-covering the complete cycle from design verification, test, diagnosis, failure analysis and back to process and design improvement.
At ITC, test and design professionals can confront the challenges the industry faces, and learn how these challenges are being addressed by the combined efforts of academia, design tool and equipment suppliers, designers, and test engineers.
TestWeek's comprehensive program includes papers, panels, lectures and advanced industrial practice sessions, tutorials, workshops, and the return of the famed poster session followed by a Texas-style beer blast.
In addition to focused papers on hot topics such as test compression, power-aware test, advances in delay test, and silicon debug, new this year are four embedded tutorials on topics including testing of 3D chips, new boundary-scan standards and post-silicon validation. Also new is a special Career Track hosted by IEEE-USA.
The International Test Conference (ITC) is sponsored by the Test Technology Technical Council of the IEEE Computer Society and by the Philadelphia Section of the IEEE. This year marks the 40th consecutive conference year for ITC.
From its beginnings as an informal gathering of test engineers in 1970 at Cherry Hill, New Jersey, ITC has grown to become the cornerstone of Test Week activities, which this year include more than 100 technical papers, panels, tutorials, lecture series, workshops, IEEE fringe meetings and important plenary and invited addresses. ITC has a tradition of spirited debate over test issues that continue during breaks and social gatherings. Over 100 companies participate.
ITC 2010 will also be held at the Austin Convention Center in Austin, Texas, on 2-4 November, 2010. Test Week will run 1-5 November, 2010.
Registration information is available online at http://www.itctestweek.org, or through the ITC office at +1 202.973.8665.

1. Copenhagen, DanmarkRush hour with cyclists and pedestrians making up the bulk of the movement in central Copenhagen, Denmark.
Each day, I see new examples of the growing demand for a mainstream transportation culture where bicycles are a normal, accepted, and vital part of the mix. But we still have a long way to go.
For North America to accept and integrate bicycle use into our transportation systems it is important to understand what is standing in the way.
To this day, we are faced with a biased mainstream media portrayal of cycling. We are faced with politicians pandering to people in their cars who are far too hesitant to take the aggressive steps needed to build a complete network of safe bicycle infrastructure. We are faced with a bicycle industry that continues to push the agenda (and products) that cycling is merely a sport or a hobby.
National media outlets continue to portray "cyclists" as a homogeneous group of lawbreakers who must attain an unrealistic, ideal behavior before being granted designated room on our streets. On June 27, 2013, Canada's National Post ran a widely circulated story that liberally tossed around the hideous word "scofflaw" yet provided no statistical evidence to back their claims that "too many" riders are disobeying the law. While these news stories continue to use anecdotal evidence to support their claims researchers are seeking the truth. A recent study conducted by Portland State University found that 94 percent of riders obeyed red lights – a fact that media outlets conveniently overlooked.
Too many politicians and city leaders have yet to understand that creating safe bike infrastructure requires building a complete network as well as altering laws to favor travel by bike, foot, and transit. There is a glimmer of hope in cities like New York, NY, and Chicago, IL, but elsewhere change is too slow, too small, and often completely non-existent. Forcing riders to compromise their safety in order to share space on our streets with drivers will never lead to civilized cycling.
For potential and existing riders, the bike industry has yet to deliver quality bikes and accessories that cater to people using their bicycles for transportation. In Europe, a majority of bicycles on the street come fully equipped for daily use. There, major brands like Giant and Raleigh provide bicycles off the shelf with lights, fenders, chainguards, kickstands, and racks. Yet in North America there seems to be little movement within the industry to even recognize this segment of the market.
Despite these dominant societal forces working against us, there are changes (many within the past three years) that give us hope.
Strong political leadership in Chicago and New York has quickly brought significant and wide-sweeping change. Chicago added 27 miles (43.5 kilometers) of protected bike lanes in just two years and has ambitious plans to reach 100 miles (160 kilometers) by 2020. New York launched North America's largest bike share and within the first month sold more than 100,000 daily, weekly, and annual memberships. In these cities, leading lifestyle transportation bike companies like Linus, Biria, and PUBLIC are providing the right products for these new urban landscapes. Will the North American industry learn from these small brands or will they miss the boat on what may be the largest opportunity we have ever seen?

For full story of Monkey Man Jack Campbell convicted of murder and my love for the killer, and also for the victim Black Bob. This story first came to our attention when we were asked by the Scottish SPCA animal section to help them out by taking in a number of marmosets from them asap; this was because they had removed them from the offenders home who were now in custody on a murder charge.
We travelled within hours over night up to their headquarters that was in between Glasgow and Edinburgh , this was because the marmosets needed to be picked up as soon as possible as the spca primate housing was being dismantled.

5, 10, and 20 mcg/hour; each single patch is intended to be worn for seven days. It is recommended for patients who need 80 mg/day or less of morphine-equivalent opioid medication. Note: The use of other extended-release opioids must be reduced before starting buprenorphine treatment. No more than one 20 mcg/hour patch should ever be used at a time due to the risk of QTc interval prolongation, which can result in sudden cardiac death.

The first few weeks while ramping up there are side effects but for most they do go away, talk to your doctor about it. It saved me. If you still have you neck collar and if it is a soft one put it on during the day for short periods.

I believe that people can take Tramadol for BT pain with it but unfortunately that one is out for me due to my
and Topomax. There is a drug interaction there unfortunately. :( The other thing that I'm curious about is that this seems to be quite a jump in medication strength? I take two 7.5 mg Vicodins a day. Some days that is enough and some days not. I usually break them in half and take them with another tylenol so that I can get all day coverage.

Eventually though it did have the poop out effect and that's why I had to switch to Celexa. I almost wonder if
would be a better choice for me because it works not just with Serotonin but Norepinephrine if that is how you spell it. Not sure though if that neurotransmitter is having problems or not. However, my doctor did switch me to Paxil for awhile a few years ago and then had me switch back to prozac and it started working better. Not sure yet.

You can with other medications. Last week they didn't have enough
for my script. They gave me what they had, then when their order came in two days later, filled the rest and called me. But they're not allowed to do that for narcotics. If you choose to have the script partially filled, you lose the balance. I've had to do that at times, though. If it's a late Friday or a weekend and I'm going to run out, I'll take whatever they have.
