Postgraduate prospectus 2015
This Doctorate in Clinical Psychology is collaboratively funded through NHS Education for Scotland and the University of Glasgow. You will be employed by a local NHS (Scotland) Health Board for the duration of the programme.
The programme follows a modularised structure, which integrates academic teaching, clinical practice education and research training. This process underpins the commitment of the programme team to maximising the synergy between the clinical, academic and research components of training and reflects explicitly our commitment to an integrative educational process.
The programme consists of 16 compulsory courses.
You must have the British Psychological Society Graduate Basis for Chartering (GBC) and provide proof of this. This usually takes the form of a single or joint 2.1 or above Honours degree in Psychology; however, candidates who have gained GBC by other means will be considered. Additional practical clinical or research experience of working with children or adults with mental health problems or learning disabilities is an advantage. We do not consider applications from final-year undergraduates.
Further information regarding academic entry requirements: email@example.com
For applicants whose first language is not English, the University sets a minimum English Language proficiency level.
International English Language Testing System (IELTS) Academic module (not General Training):
Common equivalent English language qualifications:
* Please note that TOEFL has now been removed from the approved list of English tests by the Home Office and TOEFL tests taken on or after 17 April 2014 will no longer normally be accepted for UK visa applications. However, the University as an HEI can still choose to accept TOEFL tests for admission to degree level courses and so TOEFL tests can still be accepted as normal for this programme.
Pre-sessional courses
The University of Glasgow accepts evidence of the required language level from the Language Centre Pre-sessional courses. We also consider other BALEAP accredited pre-sessional courses:
What do I do if...
my language qualifications are below the requirements?
The University's Language Centre offers a range of Pre-Sessional Courses to bring you up to entry level. The course is accredited by BALEAP, the UK professional association for academic English teaching; see Links.
my language qualifications are not listed here?
Please contact the Recruitment and International Office: firstname.lastname@example.com
If you require a Tier 4 student visa, your qualification must be one of the secure English language tests accepted by UK Border Agency:
It is a visa requirement to provide information on your level of English based on an internationally recognised and secure English language test. All test reports must be no more than 2 years old. A list of these can be found on the UK Border Agency website. If you have never taken one of these tests before, you can get an initial idea of your level by using the Common European Framework self-assessment grid which gives you a level for each skill (e.g. listening B1/writing B2 etc.) However, please note that this is not a secure English language test and it is not sufficient evidence of your level of English for visa requirements.
If you require a Tier 4 student visa, your qualification must be one of the secure English language tests accepted by UK Border Agency:

Anne Muntges makes highly detailed drawings, prints and installation art based on concepts of the home. She received her BFA from the Kansas City Art Institute ('05) and an MFA from the University at Buffalo('08). Muntges' work has been exhibited nationally New York, Chicago and Buffalo and Canada.
Artist Statement:
In my work I use imagery of the home to question ideas about architectural space, the nature of our interaction with it, and our perception of it. The home is an environment that creates atmosphere and structure through its constructed elements and decorations. These elements directly inform my drawing and sculpture so that the pieces can challenge the way we think about the spaces we inhabit.
My work exists in two different ways: two dimensionally (panels or paper drawn with ink, paint, graphite, dirt, spray paint, or screen-printing) and three-dimensionally (installations done by building home interiors to life size, priming every surface white and drawing hatch marks.) My drawings add chaos to the domestic home by skewing perspectives of walls and doors, changing the layout of rooms by morphing them into human figures, and abruptly inserting non-conventional architectural features. My installations challenge ones sense of space by making 3 dimensional pieces appear as flat drawings. The work is meant to disturb the order of perfection found in our home so that elements of grace are starkly contrasted with moments of discomfort.

King Abdullah II of Jordan, left, gestures during a welcoming ceremony with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, prior to their meeting in the West Bank city of Ramallah, Thursday, Dec. 6, 2012. (AP Photo/Majdi Mohammed)
RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) — Jordan's King Abdullah II paid a rare visit to the West Bank on Thursday in a show of support for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas' successful bid for U.N. recognition of a Palestinian state.
Abbas and the king are political allies, and last met Sunday in Jordan, during one of the Palestinian leader's frequent stops in the neighboring kingdom. But Thursday's visit was just the third time the king has visited the West Bank, and the first time in more than a year.
The king received a red carpet welcome with military honors at Abbas' government compound in the West Bank after landing in a helicopter Thursday morning.
Last week, the U.N. General Assembly recognized a state of Palestine in the West Bank, Gaza and east Jerusalem — lands Israel occupied in 1967 — as a non-member observer.
The king's arrival gave a high-profile boost of support to the U.N. bid, which has come under fierce Israeli criticism. Jordan is one of just two Arab countries with a peace agreement with Israel, so Abdullah's public support was significant.
Israel accuses the Palestinians of trying to circumvent the negotiating process by seeking U.N. recognition. Although the vote did not change the situation on the ground, the international community endorsed the Palestinian position on future borders with Israel. Israel refuses to return to its pre-1967 lines.
Israel has responded to the Palestinians' U.N. move by cutting off a regularly scheduled $100 million tax transfer to the cash-strapped Palestinian Authority, and announced plans to build thousands of new settler homes in the West Bank and east Jerusalem.
The settlement plans have sparked widespread international criticism, and prompted the Palestinians to file a complaint at the United Nations. But Israel's prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, has refused to back down.

text: Fledgling soca vocalist Kevin Lyttle keeps Caribbean kosher on his self-titled album, Kevin Lyttle. But rather than following in the tradition of lewd, gruff-voiced ''toasters'' like Shabba, Lyttle emulates romantic crooners such as Barrington Levy and Wayne Wonder. His lust is therefore less lurid -- but no less offensive. The St. Vincent native woos in a weak, whiny wavelength that, at its very best moment (''So High''), mocks Al Green's vulnerable texture. Mostly, though, it just hangs in a sickeningly high register over unbearably syrupy karaoke-soca.

Chris Brown says he's a changed man, but his new music video doesn't help his case. In an interview with Today, the R&B singer opened up about his 2009 assault of girlfriend Rihanna, with whom he's since reunited. Now, says Brown, he's learned to respect women. So why does his new single literally objectify women, by equating us with "Fine China"?
"It's comparing a woman to how priceless and delicate she is," Brown, 23, explained to MTV News. "This song is more of a chivalry kind of record, being more of a gentleman, taking that approach of catering to the woman, having more of that love element."
Right, because we "delicate" women are suckers for chivalry, especially from a white knight like Chris Brown. In the video, below, he saves a swooning Asian girl from gangsters. Where do we even begin?
As far as we've seen, Chris Brown has no regard whatsoever for women, unless he's rescuing them in music videos (or parading them around at court hearings) to make himself look good. Forget the 2009 assault for a minute; there's plenty of evidence in the last six months alone. Remember that long string of violent sexual threats he unleashed on a critical female Tweeter in November? How about that rant during a March concert, in which he lectured men on how to control a "bad bitch"?
And yet Breezy continues to tell interviewers that he's learned from his mistakes. On Monday, he told Today's Matt Lauer that he became a "different" man after the assault.
"For me, I've been humbled by the whole experience, from me losing everything to me having to regain public opinion, or whatever it is," said Brown in the interview (watch it below). "But most importantly, you know, knowing that what I did was totally wrong, and having to kind of deal with myself and forgive myself in the same breath, and being able to apologize to, you know, Rihanna, and being able to be that man that can be a man, you know?"
Oh good! He remembered to mention Rihanna in there.
Visit NBCNews.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy
Brown also told Lauer that the 52-week domestic violence counseling program he attended really helped him in "knowing that what I did was wrong, and never doing it again." (We sincerely hope so.)
As for Rihanna (whom he's still dating, despite reports to the contrary), Brown says that "she knows my heart, and I know her heart." When Lauer asked if Brown was sure that he'd never assault Rihanna again, the singer laughed -- laughed! -- and said "Absolutely." Did we mention he laughed?
It's good that Brown is trying to convey some kind of remorse, but we hate that he's turning his domestic violence conviction into a story of personal triumph. The singer told Lauer that he hopes his new album will "inspire the world, and inspire people that have been in my situation." Earth to Chris Brown: You're not the victim. People hate you because you did something really bad. Want that triumphant comeback? Try doing something good for a change. And maybe stop comparing women to dishware.

Britten towards 2013: new web documentaries(April 2009)
As part of the run-up to the 2013 centenary of Benjamin Britten's birth, the Britten-Pears Foundation is producing a series of documentary films, which are available to presenters for pre-performance events, on web sites, in foyers and within special exhibitions. Films on Billy Budd and War Requiem have been released and Noye's Fludde is nearing completion. Each video explores the genesis of the work through radio recordings, performance film footage, and documents and photos from the BPF archive.
>View Billy Budd documentary
>View War Requiem documentary
The Britten-Pears Foundation has officially launched its campaign to mark 'Britten 100' in 1913, in conjunction with publishers Boosey & Hawkes and Faber Music. The first issue of News from the Red House, providing twice yearly updates of plans and projects, has just been published by the BPF, and is available to presenters and performers in print or electronic formats on request from email@example.com.
Many opera companies, including Hamburg State Opera, Houston Grand Opera and Opera North, are building up their Britten repertoire to perform over a number of seasons in the lead-up to 2013. With anniversaries of three operatic greats – Verdi, Wagner and Britten – all co-inciding in the same year, 2013 provides a unique programming opportunity for celebrating their achievements.
You are welcome to discuss your plans for the Britten Centenary with us by contacting the Promotion Department at email@example.com. We can provide information on Britten-related themes for programming, suggest wider contexts for his music, and detail rare repertoire suitable for centenary performance.

Some suppliers claim that transactions can be almost twice as fast as a conventional cash, credit, or debit card purchase. Because no signature or PIN verification is typically required, contactless purchases are limited to US$25 in the U.S., A$100 in Australia, NZD$80 in New Zealand, €25 in most euro area countries (€15 in Ireland) and £20 in the UK. Those unauthorized may still take advantage of contactless payment systems as no identification occurs before payment except for certain devices. However, owners may block transactions which may provide relatively short time frame, if any, for fraudulent activities to occur of any kind.
Research indicates that consumers are likely to spend more money due to the ease of small transactions.[1] MasterCard Canada says it has seen "about 25 percent" higher spending by users of its PayPass-brand RFID credit cards.[2]
Mobil was one of the most notable early adopters of this technology, and offered their "Speedpass" contactless payment system for participating Mobil gas stations as early as 1997. Although Mobil has since merged with Exxon, the service is still offered at many of ExxonMobil's stations. Freedompay also had early wins in the contactless space with Bank of America[3] and McDonald's[4]
McDonald's, Boots, EAT., Heron Foods, Pret a Manger, Stagecoach Group, Subway (restaurant), AMT Coffee and Lidl are among the retailers offering contactless payments to their customers in the UK. In March 2008 EAT. became the first restaurant chain to adopt contactless.[5]
Major financial entities now offering contactless payment systems include MasterCard, Citibank, JPMorgan Chase, American Express, KeyBank, Barclays, Barclaycard, HSBC, Lloyds Banking Group, Freedompay, The Co-operative Bank and The Royal Bank of Scotland Group. Visa PayWave, American Express ExpressPay, and MasterCard PayPass are examples of contactless credit cards which have become widespread in U.S. and UK. The UK (and the rest of the world) version of the contactless applications differ from the U.S. one. The UK version has the capability of transacting offline, based on the limit stored in the application.
The first contactless cards in the UK were issued by Barclaycard in 2008. As of May 2013[update], there are approximately 32.5 million contactless-enabled cards in circulation in the UK and over 147,000 terminals in use.[6]
Telecom operators are starting to get involved in contactless payments via the use of near field communication phones. Belgacom's Pingping - Belgium, for example, has a stored value account and via a partnership with Alcatel-Lucent's touchatag provides contactless payment functionalities. In January 2010, Barclaycard partnered with mobile phone firm Orange, to launch a contactless credit card in the UK. Orange and Barclaycard also announced in 2009 that they will be launching a mobile phone with contactless technology.[7]
In October 2011, the first mobile phones with MasterCard PayPass and/or VISA payWave certification appeared. A PayPass or payWave account can be assigned to the embedded Secure Element and/or SIM card within the phones. Google Wallet uses tablets and handsets with an embedded Secure Element. ISIS, Cityzi and Quick Tap wallets for example, use a secure SIM card to store encrypted personal information. Contactless payments with enabled mobile phones still occur on a small scale, but every month an increasing number of mobile phones are certified.[8]
In February 2014, MasterCard announced that it would partner with Weve, which is a joint venture between EE, Telefónica UK, and Vodafone UK, to focus on mobile payments. The partnership will promote the development of "contactless mobile payment systems" by creating a universal platform in Europe for it.[9]
As with all payment devices, contactless cards have a number of security features. Contactless runs over the same chip and PIN network as normal credit and debit card transactions, there is a payment limit on single transactions and contactless cards can only be used a certain number of times before customers are asked for their PIN.[citation needed] Contactless debit and credit transactions are protected by the same fraud guarantee as standard transactions. In order to check that a contactless card has been delivered to the authorised card holder, the contactless part of the card will not function until a standard chip and PIN transaction has been executed.
Under fraud guarantee standards U.S. banks claim to be liable for any fraudulent transactions charged to the contactless cards. However, banks are not liable for the identity theft that the RFID card can encourage.

Bob Smith: Republicans should stick to core principles
Friday, June 27, 2014
DOVER — Former U.S. Senator, and current senate candidate, Bob Smith argues Republicans shouldn't abandon their core principles just to win elections.
During Thursday's editorial board, Smith expressed support for the entire Republican Party platform. He wants to reduce government spending, cut regulations, lower tax rates and eliminate the capital gains tax. He opposes abortion and gun control and believes marriage should be reserved for one man and one woman. He said the country's growing debt could have catastrophic consequences.
Smith believes the Republican Party is in a state of flux. Despite recent Democratic successes, he believes Republicans can win in New Hampshire if they argue forcefully for conservative principles.
Smith aligns himself with Tea Party favorites such as Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, and Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky. While not opposed to compromise, Smith said that can't be the default position.

AFRICA/SIERRA LEONE - Birth and development of the African Church, which celebrates 50 years: the diocese of Makeni
Makeni (Agenzia Fides) - On July 8, 1950 a group of four Xaverian missionary pioneers landed in the port of Freetown, at the headquarters of the British colonial administration in Sierra Leone. A few days later, the new arrivals were allocated to the mission stations of Lunsar and Makeni. These special places of the "Northern Province" thus became the platform for the foundation and development of a new African Church, that of Makeni. The group was led by a humble priest from Parma, Father Augusto Fermo Azzolini (1908-1992), who two years later, on July 19, 1952, was appointed Apostolic Prefect of the new Prefecture of Makeni. This was created on April 3 by the division of the Diocese of Freetown and Bo.
Ten years later, on February 24, 1962, the Apostolic Prefecture of Makeni was elevated to a Diocese, and on June 24, 1962, Msgr. Azzolini was ordained the first Bishop of the Missionary Church in the historic Cathedral of Parma. Bishop Azzolini remained at the helm of the diocese of Makeni for almost 25 years, ie until 17 November 1986, when he was succeeded by Mgr. George Biguzzi, he too a Xaverian missionary. He remained in the diocese for other 25 years, until January 7, 2012, when the new African Bishop, Fr. Aruna Henry, of the Diocese of Kenema was elected.
Bishop Azzolini, who retired in Parma (Italy), died on July 24, 1992 and, by his express wish, was buried in Makeni (Sierra Leone), where he still rests among "his people". As far back as February 11, 1956, Msgr. Azzolini - knowing that soon there would come a moment to hand over to the local clergy this African Church, which he, due to an apostolic mandate, had established in this land of Sierra Leone - had started the first seminar of Makeni.
Now, after 50 years of apostolic work - mainly thanks to his successor, Bishop Georgio Biguzzi - the local clergy has grown quite large and covers a good part of the requirements of this diocese, geographically quite large (36,075 square kilometers with a population of about 2 million inhabitants), although with a relatively small number of Catholics (about forty).
The local priests, not only are now numerous (around 34), but are also intellectually prepared with programs that empower them in various sciences - both theological and communicative - so they can compete without too much effort with the most organized and structured churches of Africa.
Now Bishop Biguzzi – who celebrates his silver Episcopal jubilee, becoming missionary Bishop Emeritus – hands this church over to the clergy of Makeni in Sierra Leone. At the beginning of his pastoral service he had been, for over ten years, involved in the horrible storm of civil war which in his own episcopal had established a stronghold of the rebel command. Now that peace has returned and much work was done - especially with the collaboration of many - Mgr. Biguzzi hands over to the people of Sierra Leone a rather adult Church.
This church of Makeni - now in its first 50 years of foundation and life - wants to assert her maturity and ability to be leaven in the mass. That land of the North - that the first missionaries of the nineteenth century found difficult and refractory to the Gospel of Christ and maybe impenatrable for a strong Muslim presence - has now produced her Christian good fruit and prepares herself, with foresight and with tangible results already, to extend deeper and deeper into the historical and social fabric of this African nation and thus become a concrete sign of hope and new life for many of its inhabitants, particularly those in the Northern Province.

End of school burn-out: Parents need summer break, tooon June 14, 2013 @ 4:28 pm (Updated: 8:15 am - 6/16/13 )
Dori and news anchor Ursula Reutin can relate to. Hatmaker is calling herself the worst end-of-school mom ever.
Parents these days are expected to be much more involved in their child's school lives - and that means parents get just as burned out as kids at the end of the school year.
"You know the Beginning of School Enthusiasm? When the pencils are fresh and the notebooks are new and the kids' backpacks don't look like they lined the den of a pack of filthy hyenas?" Hatmaker wrote. "We are limping, limping across the finish line, folks. I tapped out somewhere in April and at this point, it is a miracle my kids are still even going to school."
Dori's youngest daughter is graduating from high school this week. He's spent the winter and spring coaching her varsity basketball team, going to tennis games, and more.
"I don't remember my mom having to do everything: the costumes, and baking every other week," said Dori.
At some point, you just have to realize that you can't do it all. Between end of year parties, teacher's gifts, and finals, something's got to give. For your sanity.
"I was helping one of my kids with an end-of-the-year project yesterday and I was thinking the only reason I have to help him now is that there aren't enough hours in the day to get everything done," said Ursula. "I finally told my son: who cares if you get a B?"
Jillian Raftery is an afternoon editor at KIRO Radio. She loves the neighborly vibe of the Pacific Northwest and spends as much time as possible outdoors.

The Recapp Rating
4/5 Stars
|Get Target! + Add to Favs
If you're like us, you know that a trip to Target is, at the very least, an hour ordeal. The megastore possesses everything you could possibly need and want, and then some. To make your shopping experience a little easier (and hopefully shorter), download the Target mobile app for iPhone or Android and make purchases or create shopping lists from home.
The user interface offers a search bar on top for specific searches and six tabs below for your shopping needs: Featured, Products, Weekly Ads, Lists, Stores and My Target. You can start by browsing the Products tab. Choose a category (women, men, baby, home, etc.), and once you find that bedroom dresser you're looking for, add it to your cart. If you prefer to feel the wood-veneer finish before you buy, simply add it to your Target Lists, along with your shampoo and toothpaste, and you won't forget a thing once you're in the big red store.
Our favorite part about the Target app is all the product details it provides. When we looked into a new GPS system for the car, the app showed us everything from the item's mapping features to its screen size.
Users can check out the Daily Deals and Weekly Ad tabs for special offers and use My Target to ditch the plastic and manage gift cards. Put the scissors away and sign up for coupon alerts to get deals sent directly to your phone. And if you prefer the physical shopping experience, use the Stores tab to locate the nearest Target.
Once you're in the store, the Target app lets you scan UPC codes to check prices and availability. But, really, no one can pass up cute-but-totally-unnecessary items near the checkout counters, anyway.

Hydro Power
August 5, 2009 - Robert "Bubba" Kapral
Ormet's announcement of massive layoffs was a vicious blow to Monroe County. It was not a lethal one, however. Monroe County's economic well-being is closely tied to Ormet, but not totally. That was reaffirmed with the announcement of some 50 new jobs courtesy of a hydroelectic generation manufacturing facility planned in Hannibal. That is welcome news to a county in major need of some. The hydro jobs are a shot-in-the-arm, albeit a small one, to the county's economic ills. Hopefully, the new facility generates more jobs in addition to power.

DEBKAfile Exclusive Report July 4, 2011
The Palestinian Authority is broke. Prime Minister Salam Fayyad appealed to "donors and our Arab brothers" Sunday, June 3, for urgent assistance after being forced to halve civil servants' July wages. The US, Turkey and Saudi Arabia could save the PA from bankruptcy – in theory. But, debkafile reports, the Saudis prefer to channel cash to Jordan and Washington's bailout is conditional on Mahmoud Abbas dropping his unilateral UN initiative and going back to negotiations with Israel.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report July 2, 2011
Libyan Ruler Muammar Qaddafi's threat to "throw ourselves on Europe like swarms of locusts or bees" to attack "your homes, your offices, your families" may be meant to scare NATO off its coming all-out offensive to kill or oust him – or may be for real. If forced to quit, debkafile reports he could seek asylum with friendly African Sahel tribes like the al Qaeda-linked Tuareg, which also provide him with mercenaries. From there, he could orchestrate a campaign of terror.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report June 30, 2011
debkafile offers exclusive details on the British Foreign Secretary William Hague's allegation Wednesday, June 29, that Iran has carried out secret tests of missiles capable of delivering a nuclear payload in breach of UN resolution 1929: Three of those tests, four in all, were carried out between October 2010 and February 2011and the fourth on Tuesday, June 28, in the course of the Prophet Mohammed war games currently in progress. Three tests by Sejjil and Shahab-3 Kadar were successful.
DEBKAfile Special Report June 29, 2011
British Foreign Secretary William Hague stated Wednesday, June 29: "Iran has been carrying out covert ballistic missile tests and rocket launches, including testing missiles capable of delivering a nuclear payload in contravention of UN resolution 1929." Hague was the first Western leader to confirm debkafile's disclosures in the past year. He spoke as American naval, air and marine forces built up in the Mediterranean, the Aden and Oman straits, the Persian Gulf and the Arabian Sea.
DEBKAfile Special Report June 25, 2011
As Turkey heads for a military showdown with Syria, Ankara has agreed to restore military and intelligence collaboration in the eastern Mediterranean with Israel, debkafile reports. The deal worked out between President Barack Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu also returns Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan to a role in Israeli-Palestinian diplomacy and gives him a chance to try and bring Hamas aboard. Deputy Prime Minister Moshe Yaalon finalized the details in secret talks in Ankara.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report June 24, 2011
Only two Arab autocrats have succumbed to six popular uprisings: four have survived. NATO's score in Libya is zero to one as Europe's war sustainability is hit by the falling euro Two countries are in the grip of civil war and two undergoing partition. Yet Barack Obama is grimly determined to complete his Arab regime change mission.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report June 24, 2011
The chaotic slipstream of the Arab Revolt is keeping the sensitive oil industry and the nuclear arms race situation in constant turmoil. Saudi Arabia is ready to cripple Iran's oil exports and strike Syria's energy resources. Berlusconi hopes to beat Obama to an deal for Libyan oil by secretly switching his support from the rebels to Muammar Qaddafi.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report June 24, 2011
Prime Minister Netanyahu has dropped his long-time ally and partner-in-policymaking Defense Minister Ehud Barak and turned to hardline Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman as his only adviser. But essentially, Bibi has dispensed with a circle of advisers and taken over the solo lead in all defense affairs and important foreign relations.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Analysis June 18, 2011
Afghan President Hamid Karzai, America's and NATO's key ally in the war on the Taliban and al Qaeda, turned furiously on the United States in a public outburst Saturday, June 18. He accused Washington of carrying on direct talks with the Taliban behind Kabul's back and contaminating the Afghan environment with the chemical pollutants used in NATO war operations. debkafile: Kabul and Islamabad have begun reorienting their policies on coordination with Saudi Arabia in common cause against Obama policies.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report June 17, 2011
Lebanon has a new government headed by Najib Mikati, ally of Syrian President Bashar Assad and Hizballah. Formed suddenly on June 13, the 30-minister lineup has earmarked an unprecedented 18 portfolios – including defense and interior – to Hizballah loyalists and pro-Syrian politicians. While fighting the uprising against his rule, Bashar Assad has recaptured Beirut. The appointment of friendly Fayez Ghosn as defense minister places the army at the service of Damascus and portends trouble on the Lebanese-Israeli border.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report June 16, 2011
Turkey considers giving Bashar Assad a last chance before resorting to military action after receiving the promise of a US shield against Iranian or Syrian missile retaliation. Assad, for his part, is rigidly fixated on his harsh crackdown and a victory over the rebels against his regime.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report June 16, 2011
Assad's decision to bank on the army to extinguish the revolt against him is paying off. The US and the West could have starved him of funds for his crackdown by an embargo on Syrian oil experts – but refrained from doing so. In any case, the Syrian economy is about to crash
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report June 16, 2011
The US is willing to replenish NATO's empty missile and smart bomb arsenals but needs to know who is footing the bill. Robert Gates like British and French Libyan war commanders don't believe in NATO's ability to topple Muammar Qaddafi.
DEBKAfile Special Report June 13, 2011
Jerusalem insisted Monday that no Cairo notification had been received of the arrest of dual US-Israeli citizen Ilan Grapel as an alleged Israeli spy, while Washington is checking to see if any word came through. Western intelligence circles suggest Egypt may have preferred to "find" a Mossad spy even if they suspected him of working undercover for other Western organizations. debkafile: The US and Israel are seeking his quick release before agitation against an alleged fomenter of Muslim-Coptic strife makes this impossible.
DEBKAfile Special Report June 11, 2011
For more than 15 years, Fazul Abdullah Mohammed, 38, slithered out of every US and Israeli undercover operation to nab him, often with minutes to spare. This week, his luck turned:The Somali sentries who shot him dead at a roadblock outside Mogadishu had no idea who he was.debkafile:The passing of this highly competent terrorist mastermind leaves al Qaeda's branch in East and the Horn of Africa and Somalia high and dry.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report June 10, 2011
The Arab revolts are resolving themselves into bids for getting rid of three rulers who refuse to step down, Yemen's Ali Abdullah Saleh, who survived an assassination bid and promises to return as good as new; Syria's Bashar Assad, whom the West allows to survive, and Libya's Muammar Qaddafi, who promises to outlive NATO's attempts on his life.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report June 10, 2011
Two scandals are rocking the Israeli government: One arises from the former Mossad chief Meir Dagan's deadly attacks on the Netanyahu government; the other from US sanctions suddenly landing on Israel's richest plutocrats, the Ofer Brothers. Both have their roots in the Gulf oil emirate.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report June 10, 2011
Western intelligence circles believe master terrorist Ilyas Kashmiri survived a US rocket attack although his al Qaeda group the 313 Brigade eulogized him. Syed Saleem Shahzad, the Pakistani journalist who knew too much about him was abducted, tortured and killed, while his "man in India," David Headley is alive under US protection.
DEBKAfile Special Report June 9, 2011
Russia cited NATO's "inclusive bombing of Tripoli" as grounds for objecting to the new UK-French-Portuguese motion condemning the Assad regime for its violent crackdown on protest, and any other UN Security Council action against Syria. After a more than $4 billion outlay, debkafile reports NATO's campaign against Muammar Qaddafi is running short of funds and suffering war "fatigue." The US, Britain and France consider dipping into the estimated $45 million of frozen Qaddafi funds in their banks. Qaddafi' commands about $1 trillion in cash.

"T-Commerce" Option- Fans Were Able to Purchase Beckham Bodywear During Game
Saturday, February 1, 2014 - NYC:
H&M, Hennes & Mauritz AB (H&M) culminated an exciting week of pre-game activities with a special appearance by global superstar David Beckham at the flagship Times Square store today. The red carpet along Super Bowl Boulevard was lined with paparazzi, fashionistas and sports fans vying for a glimpse of Beckham as he arrived at the H&M store for a special meet-and-greet with lucky customers.
Beckham didn't disappoint fans as he spent hours in the store signing autographs and engaging with the vocal crowd. Beckham fielded a variety of questions from his passionate fans ranging football to fashion.
"It's been really special to be partners with H&M. The fact that they can reach millions of people around the world it's incredible; it's been a very successful partnership," said Beckham. "You can never imagine what they've created and what their advertising has created, it's really incredible".
While the first 200 people in line got to meet Beckham in the flesh, thousands of others enjoyed the festive ambiance in the H&M Times Square store. The store was transformed into a "Fashion Meets Football" destination inspired by H&M's ad in Super Bowl XLVIII. Visitors could preview the two alternative versions of the H&M Super Bowl ad on customized iPads to decide if they want to see Beckham "#Covered" or "#Uncovered" in tomorrow's big game. There was also an AstroTurf lounge, a massive Jumbotron tallying votes for the ads, and a virtual Runway where catwalk participants were live-streamed onto the Jumbotron screens outside the store.
All week, fans had the opportunity to enter to win "The Ultimate Big Game Giveaway," which included two tickets to Super Bowl XLVIII, round-trip travel, three night stay in NYC, items from the David Beckham for H&M Collection, plus the opportunity to meet David Beckham in person. The winners were announced yesterday.
"This week was the perfect setting to launch the David Beckham Bodywear spring collection," says Daniel Kulle, President H&M North America. "A big part of our campaign involved directly interacting and engaging with our consumers. We brought David Beckham to our store, created different versions of the ad for people to vote, and introduced t-commerce so viewers with select Samsung Smart TVs can buy pieces from the new collection instantly during the game. We're thrilled with the response from fans so far, and hope to continue the positive momentum."

I started working out about 3 months ago in the gym. My routine didn't get consistent (regarding the exercises) until around a month ago. So far, I don't really notice any changes. My routine is MWF:
1) Butt blaster (for glute activation after stretching) 87.5lbs 3 sets
2) Hip abduction 85lbs 3 sets of 8.
3) Wide-stance squats, below parallel 5 sets of 8 at 85lbs
4) lunges 55lbs 3 sets of 8
5) Regular deadlifts 3 sets of 8 at 65lbs. I add weight each time; I sound so weak but I just started working out with heavy weights. Hope to be able to squat my bodyweight by or before the end of the year. I'm going to add weighted Glute Bridges/Hip Thrusts when I get a barpad, my gym doesn't have one and also Cable Kick-backs when I get an ankle-strap, my gym doesn't have one of those either. How long before noticing changes in shape/size/lift/feel? Also, how do you build a round curve at the upper sides of the butt like Pauline Nordin has in this pic: http://fighterdiet.com/blog/wp-conte...8931_7002.jpg? Thanks

Video Premiere: JoJo – 'In the Dark'
JoJo sheds her good girl image for a more risqué one in the viral video for "In the Dark," the first single from her free mixtape Can't Take That Away From Me, available for download now. The blindfolded singer gives into her physical desires in the provocative clip, while bold words such as "truth," "sex," and "wrong" pop up on the screen.
Directed by Nicole Ehrlich (Lady Gaga) and Clarence Fuller in New York, the scenes were originally shot in color and a decision was later made that black and white would best convey the lyrics and mood. JoJo opted to go a more minimalistic route, pulling inspiration from Madonna's early obscure work.
"I think 'In the Dark' is different than anything people have heard from me before," JoJo told Rap-Up.com of the Jordan Gatsby production. "It's a very sensual record and there's an undertone of sadness to it."
Can you resist the temptation for JoJo? Indulge yourself by watching the world premiere right here on Rap-Up.com.

Patio Theater in Portage Park gets a second run at success
BY MARY HOULIHAN email@example.com May 26, 2011 7:12PM
Father and son Alexander and Demetrio Kouvalis (pictured in March 2011) restored the Patio Theater, 6008 W. Irving Park Rd. | Al Podgorski~Sun-Times
Article Extras
Updated: August 27, 2011 12:38AM
For years, the marquee at the Patio Theater in the Portage Park neighborhood read "under renovation," prompting residents to peer through the glass doors looking for a sign of life. The movie theater closed down a decade ago, and the occasional rumor kept hopes high for its rebirth.
Those rumors became reality last spring when Demetri Kouvalis graduated from the University of Illinois at Chicago with a marketing degree and found a job in his own backyard. He's the son of Alexander Kouvalis, who owns the building and ran the theater until its closing in 2001.
"I had no other job prospects, but I did see a business opportunity here," said Kouvalis, who grew up around the theater. "My dad still owned the building, and I convinced him to help get it back in running order."
The Patio, 6008 W. Irving Park, reopens June 4 as a second-run movie theater, with a screening of Kenneth Branagh's "Thor," starring Chris Hemsworth, Anthony Hopkins and Natalie Portman.
The rebirth of the Patio is a cause for celebration, says Richard Sklenar, executive director of
Theatre Historical Society of America. It rejoins the ranks of the few remaining Chicago neighborhood movie houses, including the Davis, Logan, Music Box and Portage.
"It's very important any time a historical theater is saved and put back to its original use," Sklenar said. "It adds life, sparkle and excitement to the neighborhood."
Walking into the Patio and seeing its gorgeous interior is akin to stepping into the past. The grand 1,500-seat theater, designed by Rudolph G. Wolff in the "neo-Pompeian" style, opened in 1927 with the silent film "The Blonde Saint." It features stadium seating and an atmospheric canopy replete with twinkling stars and drifting clouds. The original pipe organ, which provided accompaniment to silent classics, is still housed in the theater.
The Patio's lobby is a jewel with its ornate ceiling, grand chandelier and quaint ticket booth.
Kouvalis, with help from his sister Amalia, an artist, repainted the intricate ceiling and upper walls of the entry in rich shades of red, gold and blue. Faux balconies with mirrored windows and wall lamps make the space even more spectacular.
"We did lots of painting, lots of cleaning," Kouvalis said. "It was dirty and dusty, but there were no major problems with the building."
Kouvalis says around $12,000 went into the renovation, along with "$50,000 in sweat equity." Around 250 seats were reupholstered, others were cleaned and new carpeting was installed throughout the theater.
"This has been a big learning experience and the most work I've done in my life for any one project," Kouvalis said. "It's very satisfying. Not many people I know can say they own a business like this."
The secluded projection room remains a time capsule harking back to the theater's early days. The walls are covered with yellowed newspaper clippings and movie posters ranging from "The Snake Pit" to "Barton Fink." Kouvalis says the sturdy projectors were in fine condition, only requiring new lamp houses and bulbs.
Kouvalis won't entertain the thought of splitting the auditorium into two theaters, a plight that has befallen most neighborhood houses.
"The Patio just would not be the same if we did that," Kouvalis, 22, said. "It would lose a lot of its charm and character."
It seems love and appreciation
for the Patio has passed from father to son.
Alexander Kouvalis, who emigrated from Greece in 1952, is a retired physicist who worked at Argonne National Laboratory until the late 1970s. He then studied for a graduate degree in economics and became a real estate agent, and in 1987, with partners, he bought the corner building that houses the theater, 17 apartments, a pharmacy and a check-cashing business.
Kouvalis recalls having a hard time getting a mortgage; the bank saw the theater as "a white elephant," he said.
"But I came up with a plan to turn it into a self-storage space," Kouvalis, 77, said. "The bankers bought the idea, but I wasn't going to let the theater die out. It was a mess, but I could see a thing of beauty underneath the dirt. Like 'My Fair Lady,' the beauty was there, you just had to bring it out."
For 14 years, the Northwest Side theater was a popular neighborhood destination for second-run movies that attracted approximately 52,000 customers a year. It didn't close because of financial problems. Instead, it was a breakdown in the massive air-conditioning system and the lack of a Public Place of Amusement license that forced Kouvalis to close.
Kouvalis then concentrated on putting his kids through college and buying out his partners in the building. Over the years, he also kept a careful eye on the theater, keeping the heat on so pipes wouldn't freeze, said his son.
Renovations began in May 2010 with repairs to the marquee, which was damaged when a large truck tried to park in front of the theater and nicked it. In recent months, the last items on Kouvalis' checklist were visits by city inspectors. After satisfying some additional city requirements, all licenses were secured.
Kouvalis also has found a repairman who is fixing the air-conditioning system. And after the theater is up and running, renovations will continue in the theater's balcony, which remains closed to the public.
Portage Park is the only Chicago neighborhood with the distinction of having two classic movie theaters brought back to life as single-screen venues. In 2006, Dennis Wolkowicz and his partners renovated the 1,300-seat Portage Theatre at Six Corners (Irving Park, Cicero and Milwaukee). Kouvalis doesn't see the Portage, which is a multi-use venue, as competition because second-run movies aren't shown there.
Kouvalis says admission will be $5, up from the $2-$3 his father charged but still a deal. He realizes there will be challenges in keeping a business afloat in today's economic climate but he hopes patrons will see a trip to the Patio as a bargain, a good way for the family to do something together.
"This is a community theater that can really add to a neighborhood's vitality," Kouvalis said. "We're hoping that people who came here years ago will return and that others will discover it and love the Patio like we do."

Kidney Dialysis
Approximately 217,000 Americans receive kidney dialysis. Since the late 1960s, this procedure has been used in place of kidneys damaged by disease, birth defects, or injury. Dialysis may be temporary (until the kidneys resume functioning), or until the patient receives a transplant, or for a lifetime if those options are not available.
Trinity Kidney Dialysis Unit
Established in 1977, Trinity's KDU serves patients from throughout the northwest region of our state, providing some 4,000 hemodialysis treatments annually. Hemodialysis is available on site six days a week (Monday through Saturday) for approximately 47 patients, who dialyze 2-3 days a week for 3-4 hours.
In addition:
• An ambulatory peritoneal dialysis program may be available if qualified
• The unit offers privacy, convenient parking, quick access, and surroundings designed with patient comfort in mind
• Medical staff at the nursing station monitor patients during treatments
• Trinity's KDU is under the medical direction of Nasser Saffarian, MD, a board certified Nephrologist. Call 701-857-5404 for more information.
• A smaller unit - Trinity Dialysis Services - is located in Belcourt, North Dakota
What is Hemodialysis?
In very simple terms the kidneys "clean" your blood of waste products. Dialysis mimics the normal function of human kidneys. A pump (the dialysis machine) moves your blood through a filter (called a dialyzer). Blood passes on one side of the filter and a special solution (produced by the machine) passes on the other side. This solution draws excess fluids and waste out of your blood and through the filter. Your blood cells cannot pass through the filter's fine pores.
What is Peritoneal Dialysis?
Another type of treatment is called peritoneal dialysis. In this method a fluid (dialysate) is put into your abdominal (peritoneal) cavity through a small tube. The fluid draws waste from your blood and is drained from your body through the tube. The most common type of peritoneal dialysis is called Continuous Cyclic Peritoneal Dialysis (CCPD), which is normally done at night with a machine that automatically drains and refills the fluid in the abdomen.
