Financial Assistance for Graduate Study
Important Note: If you have applied for financial aid at the University of Hawaii, any scholarship or tuition waiver you receive may affect the amount of aid awarded to you. We suggest you contact the Financial Aid Office for details about your specific case.
Teaching Assistantships
Graduate teaching assistantships constitute the largest source of financial assistance available to students through the Department of History. The primary duty of graduate teaching assistants is to assist faculty in the World History Program by grading papers, counseling students, and conducting weekly discussion sessions with students taking History 151 or 152. The Department of History calculates the work load of graduate teaching assistants at 20 hours per week, so assistants carry course loads of no more than nine hours per semester.
Prospective students must apply for graduate teaching assistantships separately from admission to the Department of History and the Graduate Division. The assistantships are renewable, assuming satisfactory progress toward the degree, for a maximum of two years at the M.A. level, three years at the Ph.D. level, and four years in a combined M.A. and Ph.D. program (though never longer than necessary to complete a degree program). Complete applications for assistantships are due by 1 January. For details about graduate teaching assistantships and application forms, please view Departmental Applications Forms and Information, or contact the Graduate Secretary.
Tuition Waivers and Fellowships
The Department of History has limited amounts of other forms of financial assistance. The Graduate Division has authorized the Department to award merit-based tuition waivers. This requires students to be enrolled for 6 credits or more of degree-related courses, and maintain a grade-point average of 3.5 or better.
Students majoring in Chinese intellectual history are eligible to apply for the Hung Family Fellowship, which the Department of History awards. The Department also awards a few fellowships and grants for small amounts of money to advanced students. These include Kennedy Fellowships, usually between $1,250 to $2,500, for dissertation research travel; Sakai Awards, usually no more than $750, for travel to professional meetings and job interviews; and Kwok Grants for dissertation-related expenses. Questions about and requests for consideration for these awards should be directed to the Graduate Secretary.
Financial Assistance from Extra-Departmental Sources
Students majoring in Asian or Pacific Islands history, as well as students from Asia or the Pacific Islands, should note the availability of several forms of financial assistance beyond those offered by the Department of History. The East-West Center, a federal agency that works closely with the University of Hawaii, awards scholarships to American, Asian, and Pacific Islands students. The scholarships are granted for 12-month periods and are renewable up to 24 months for M.A. students and 48 months for Ph.D. students. Application forms and detailed information concerning these awards, which have a value approximately equal to that of graduate teaching assistantships, and the various deadlines may be found on their website: http://www.eastwestcenter.org
The School of Pacific and Asian Studies (SPAS) administers the awarding of Foreign Language Area Studies (FLAS) fellowships for students of Asian , Southeast Asian and Pacific Islands languages and area studies. These fellowships are particularly valuable for students whose graduate programs require intensive language study. The fellowships are for the academic year and are contingent upon funding from the U.S. Department of Education. Each fellowship includes a tuition waiver and a stipend of approximately $15,000 for the academic year. Summer fellowships are also available, with stipends of $2,500 and tuition waiver up to $4,000. Recipients must pursue a full-time graduate program in Asian language and area studies during the tenure of the fellowship. For further information and deadlines, please contact the Fellowships Coordinator, Ms. Chizuko Allen, by telephone, (808) 956-2210, or by email, email@example.com. Their website is: http://www.manoa.hawaii.edu/spas
Some of the area studies centers in SPAS—the Center for Chinese Studies, the Center for Japanese Studies and the Center for Korean Studies, for example—also offer fellowships for which graduate students in history may apply. Prospective students may inquire about these fellowships at the appropriate Centers.
The Department of History encourages prospective students to inquire about and apply for all sources of extra-departmental funding for which they might be eligible.

By Ezekiel Rivera
-- My brother, Isaac, drove all the way from Florida to hunt with me during Pennsylvania's deer season. From the outset, we had a feeling this year would be different.
Eager for a change of pace, my family and I moved to a house in the country in July. We were tired of life in the city. Plus, I've always enjoyed the outdoors and having animals to tend. I fell in love with the house and all the land around it. It reminded me of my home in the Caribbean with lots of hills and trees.
One day I was talking to my landlord about the hoof prints I saw in the woods. I asked if he'd ever seen deer on his 20 acres. He replied with a large grin, "Oh yes."
I asked if I could hunt on his property. When he gave me permission, I was overwhelmed at the thought of hunting my own back yard!
In the weeks leading up to the season, my brother and I walked the woods, looking for deer sign. We found a small creek and a bedding area. It seemed perfect. We felt confident that this would be our year.
The first day of hunting season, we prepared our gear, opened my kitchen door and headed off to the woods. As I walked through the forest, moving between trees and climbing over logs, my memory took me back to my childhood when I ran carefree in the woods behind our home.
My brother and I found a spot and waited. The first two days passed with much anticipation. As hunters, we never lose hope. Each day brings a new beginning. The greatest thing about hunting is that, with each hunt, there's always a feeling of optimism – a belief that "This will be my day."
Three days into the season, Isaac and I went out believing we would find our buck. We did just as we had done the other two days: We found our spot by a tree and waited.
About two hours later, we spotted a buck about 40 yards away. I signaled to my brother to take the shot since he had come all the way from Florida to hunt with me. I watched as Isaac slowly and nervously raised his rifle and looked through his scope. He looked at me again and signaled a second buck – a beautiful 9-pointer bigger than the first.
He peered through his scope, finding the perfect shot and took it. We were so thankful and excited at that moment. Finally, after many years of trying to get our buck, we did it!
We watched the buck pull back and run down toward my house. I told Isaac he'd made a great shot.
We walked about 20 yards and found the buck, a dream come true.
We are anxious for next year so we can share another adventure.

came and read, this is wow! I was seek from many blogs, but here is the best,
I love it.
Chessika Cartwright – Miss Boobs Of Hip Hop
It seems ironic that the owner of a double scoop of chocolate triple-Ds was born with the name Chessika. Then again, so is the fact that cleavage rhymes with neathage (for the average Earthling, neathage is the space underneath the breast. Cleavage on top, neathage under. Got it? Good).
While neathage isn't exactly a real word, the 19-year-old Miami phenom Chessika is very real from top to bottom.
And looking like you're 25 at 12, people approach you like you're 25. Like women thinking I want their man, and I'm like, I'm only 12! With her D-cup tripled by age 15, Chessika began to attract many things, good and bad. Fortunately, casting agents were some of the good.
Remember at the tail of Ja Rule's "Always On Time" vid when he escaped the sea of clamoring women in a hot-air ballon? Well, the only girl to almost sink her manicure into the fleeing Rule was Chessika at 15. Now at 19, with her figure catching up to her mammary pair (38-25-38), it seems the "bad" has waited to surface in odd forms. "They originally had two versions of [Nelly's video], begins the Aries. BET was hating on my titties because the one they first aired on Access Granted had the full shot of me. But then they edited it and the original is only shown on MTV.

Ex-Tea Party Rep. Joe Walsh wants to stop paying child support because he's out of a job
BY NATASHA KORECKI Political Reporter @natashakorecki February 19, 2013 9:04AM
U.S. Rep. Joe Walsh
Related Documents
Article Extras
After insisting he wasn't a "deadbeat dad" throughout his failed campaign for re-election, ex-U.S. Rep. Joe Walsh skipped last month's child support payment and has asked to stop paying altogether.
His reason: Since he's out of Congress, he's now unemployed.
Walsh, a flame-throwing Tea Party Republican who was trying to land a radio deal and has launched a social media campaign against Fox commentator Karl Rove, did not pay the $2,134 in child support he owed in January, according to the attorney who represents Walsh's ex-wife,.
And now Walsh has filed a request in Cook County Circuit Court to stop paying child support because he's unemployed.
"This is the first communication we've received from the congressman. She had no information prior to receiving this filing in the mail that he was going to seek this," said lawyer Jack Coladarci. "He did not pay January, and he has not paid February support."
In a Feb. 1 court filing entitled "motion to terminate child support obligation," Walsh's attorneys asked to change his support requirement, which under a previous agreement, was to continue until May.
"Joe's employment has been terminated through no voluntary act of his own and he is without sufficient income or assets with which to continue to pay his support obligation," the filing states. "Due to substantial change of circumstances, Joe requests that his child support obligation be terminated based on his present income and circumstances."
At one point, the filing asks to amend his payments to be equal to 20 percent of his income — which presumably is 20 percent of zero.
Walsh of McHenry was paying $2,134 a month for one child, Patrick.
Walsh lost his bid for re-election to U.S. Rep. Tammy Duckworth last November, despite millions spent by outside groups on attack ads against Duckworth, a Democrat who was supported by President Barack Obama and Sen. Dick Durbin (Ill.).
During the campaign, Walsh repeatedly chastised his opponents' criticism of his previous unpaid child support payments. The Sun-Times first reported last year that Walsh was behind in child support.
Walsh's older son, Joey, held a news conference during the campaign to say the media's portrayal of his father as a so-called "Deadbeat dad" was far from the truth.

Recipe by Rita Romano
This slaw is very low in Cholesterol. It is also a good source of Thiamin, Folate, Phosphorus, Copper and Manganese, and a very good source of Vitamin C and Vitamin K. My boyfriend said it was seasoned like sausage. I accidentally added twice as much cayenne as required, and I put in a LOT more fennel seed. so feel free to take liberties with these two.

Following the discovery and disclosure of the Rampart Area Corruption Incident by the Los Angeles Police Department, the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) notified the City of Los Angeles that it intended to file a civil suit alleging that the Department was engaging in a pattern or practice of excessive force, false arrests and unreasonable searches and seizures.
The Commanding Officer of the Risk Management Bureau is Police Administrator Arif Alikhan
Whenever the DOJ has reasonable cause to believe such violations have occurred, they may obtain a court order to eliminate the pattern or practice. On that basis, the DOJ has entered into consent decrees with other law enforcement agencies throughout the United States including the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Police Department; Steubenville, Ohio Police Department; and the New Jersey State Police.
A consent decree is an agreement between involved parties submitted in writing to a court. Once approved by the judge, it becomes legally binding.
In making these allegations, the DOJ recognized that the overwhelming majority of Los Angeles police officers perform their difficult jobs in a lawful manner. The City denied the allegations in the DOJ complaint and entered into negotiations with DOJ. However, to avoid potentially divisive and costly litigation and to promote the best available practices and procedures for the Department, the City entered into the Civil Rights Consent Decree.
The Consent Decree will last a minimum of five years during which the Department must demonstrate substantial compliance with the Decree's provisions.
The Consent Decree is intended to promote police integrity within the Department and prevent conduct that deprives individuals of their rights, privileges, or immunities protected by the Constitution of the United States. The Consent Decree places emphasis on the following nine major areas:
On November 2, 2000, the City Council and the Mayor approved the Consent Decree negotiated between the City and the DOJ. However, the Consent Decree was not immediately entered (i.e. approved and signed) by Federal District Court Judge Gary A Feess. Nonetheless, the Department formed the Consent Decree Task Force (CDTF) within Administrative Group to plan for, coordinate, track, monitor and report on the Department's compliance with the Decree's provisions.
The Court formally entered the Consent Decree into law on June 15, 2001. In the upcoming month, Department employees can expect to receive Consent Decree-related orders, notices, and training, articulating new operational policies and procedures.
Wilshire and Hollywood Area patrol officers recently began a pilot program to evaluate the use of hand-held computers for motor vehicle and pedestrian stops. Data collection is scheduled to begin Department-wide by November 1, 2001.
The men and women of the Los Angeles Police Department are deeply committed to serving all the people and all the various communities of the City.
Compliance with the Consent Decree is the baseline for, and not the ultimate standard, by which the Department's commitment to excellence will ultimately be measured.
The communities of Los Angeles expect and deserve the finest service possible from their police officers. To that end, the Department shall consider the Consent Decree as only a part of a more comprehensive effort to provide the highest level of protection and service.

Appeal Already Filed by The Pirate Bay
Last Friday, the founders of The Pirate Bay, Frederik Neij, Gottfrid Svartholm Warg and Peter Sunde, as well as Carl Lundstrom, who provided financing, were each sentenced to a year in prison. The four was also ordered to pay $3.6 million each in damages to entertainment companies such as Warner Bros., MGM, Twentieth Century Fox, Sony BMG, Universal, EMI, and Activision.
Big media was pleased, but protests were held in Sweden over the weekend.
Meanwhile, The Pirate Bay remains defiant, saying that no matter what the site will live on.
So the first verdict finally came, almost 3 years after the raid. You might have heard about it in the news ...
You, our beloved users, know that this little speedbump on the information super highway is nothing more than just, a little bump. Todays verdict has already been appealed by us and will be taken to the next level of court (and that will take another 2 or 3 years!)
The site will live on! We are more determined than ever that what we do is right. Millions of users are a good proof of that.
We have seen that some people that we dont know have started collecting donations for us, so we can pay those silly fines. We firmly ask you NOT to do this. Do not gather or send any money. We do not want them since we will not pay any fines!
If you really want to help out, here is a list:
And say it loud say it proud! We are all The Pirate Bay!
- Seed those torrents a little bit more than you usually do!
- Buy a t-shirt and show the world where your sympathy is.
- If you live in Europe, vote in the election for the EU parliament in June.
- Continue to build the internets! Start more bittorrent sites, blog more, start your own lobby group, create, remix, mash up and continue to grow more heads on this amazing hydra that we know as the internets!
- Do not be afraid of using the network. Invite your friends to this and other file sharing systems. Calm people down if they're upset. We need to stay united.
In addition to the prison sentences, the four were ordered by the court of first instance (tingsrätt) to pay a fine of 30 million SEK as a collective, rather than each being ordered to 30 million, as stated in the article above. We can expect this case to wander through the courts (at least two, possibly three instances here in Sweden, presumably another instance at the EU level) for the best part of the decade to come. Those who have the longevity and the stamina may find it interesting to follow the process ; one can't help wondering if organisations like the MPAA and the RIAA (and their Swedish puppets) will still exist when the final judgement is rendered....
If everyone in the world is doing something, is it still considered wrong?
it's just like religion... It started with a handful of people and the government tried to shut it down and didn't agree with it because it wasn't THEIR way of doing things, and then eventually it just became the norm.
When will the government learn to stop resisting change?

Listen: Lorde Released New Music Too
By Alex Panisch
Oh, Lorde. I actually feel bad. Not about your new song "No Better," that's fantastic. Top notch, really. I feel bad that it dropped hours after Beyoncé released what's going to be one of the biggest album releases of the year. Everybody, take a break from Beyoncé for a hot second and give this a listen because it's excellent.

Daniel Peck Devotes Career to Keeping Information Secure
Degree and graduation year:
Where do you live (city & state/country)?
Decatur, GA
What do you do for a living?
I split my time between researching new security vulnerabilities and mitigation technologies in control systems (SCADA/DCS/etc) under the Department of Homeland Security / Department of Energy Initiatives, and performing security assessments at various infrastructural organizations (electrical generation/distribution, oil and gas, manufacturing, etc) around the United States and abroad. On occasion, I speak at conferences or conduct training events. I'm very interested in embedded systems, and lately I'm starting to do more study on various wireless communication methods.
What was your first job after leaving Georgia Tech?
My first job was working at a locally managed security services provider, primarily focused on developing protections for financial clients (banks and credit unions mostly). My days were spent tracking the latest vulnerabilities and discovering new ways to defend against attacks.
What do you like best about your current job?
There's something new to learn every day. Much of the worlds critical infrastructure is wide open for attack, and operating under a security model that doesn't work in a world where connectivity is the rule rather than the exception. It's a daily thrill to take apart technology that "keeps the lights on" and discover how someone might attack it.
What do you like the least?
Often the work (security critical infrastructure as a whole) seems to be far greater than what we can accomplish in a reasonable length of time, and many groups out there are ignoring solutions that work now and solve 90% of the problems and wasting resources chasing a 100% solution that will likely never be completed.
How did CoC prepare you for the working world?
The CoC gave me an incredible foundation in software design, theory and practice that allows me to understand problems quickly … and, occasionally, to find solutions quickly.
What do you consider the single greatest advance—technological, sociological, economic, etc.—in computing since you were in school?
The biggest advancement is our raised awareness of security issues in computing. When I entered Tech, computer crime stories were "fringe" news. Now, words like identity theft, cybercrime, and recently cyber war are common in mainstream news media and casual conversation.
Operating system of choice:
There's a tool that's right for every job. I probably use Linux mostly, but I also use Windows, and I deal with systems from HPUX to VxWorks on a regular basis.
What do you remember and/or value the most about your time at Georgia Tech/CoC?
After surviving the gauntlet of sophomore classes (Languages and Translation, Introduction to Systems, Introduction to Software Engineering, and whatever that terrible Squeak class was) I remember having the feeling that, with those under my belt, I could solve just about any problem given enough time. I lost a lot of the "wonder" I had, but it was replaced it with real understanding.
What faculty or staff member had the greatest impact on you?
Though I ended up dropping the class (if you want to write search algorithms for a living, be my guest, I'll never compete with you for a job), I'd have to say Thad Starner, who beat into my head the phrase, "Do the dumb thing first."
In your spare time, what do you do for fun?
During spring and summer I like to go fishing (deep sea mostly), or travel with my wife. In the fall, if there's a GT home game, I'm tailgating at Bobby Dodd Stadium. If there's an away game, I'm camped out in front of the TV for as much of the day as I can put aside to watch the games with friends.
If I had it to do over again, I'd be a ______
The same thing I am doing now, but I'd have taken a few more elective classes at the EE School.
Are any of your family members CoC/GT alumni?
No one in the CoC, but my aunt and her husband were EE grads.
Do you stay in touch with other computing alumni? If so, who?
I'm still in touch with many of the alumni from my fraternity (Theta Xi), especially Brian Adle, Adam Edwards, Shaun Dishman and Bryan Billings. Also former colleagues David Maynor, Sean Caufield, and Nick Chapman.
Are you a member of an online community? If so which one(s)?
I have a LinkedIn profile for business use. And I'm a regular contributor to my company's blog, www.digitalbond.com. Otherwise, I'm on a few mailing lists for various software products or other areas of interest.
Anything else you'd like to share? Here's your chance!
To Hell with Georgia!

Fine Art
Over the last five years brain research has rapidly developed technologies for influencing and changing our thoughts, perceptions and feelings. The new field of optogenetics, for example, has proven that light delivered via fiber optics into the brain can change the behavior of individual neurons and may one day help those suffering from Parkinson's, depression or other brain disorders. And most recently, researchers have used brain stimulation to increase one's appreciation and enjoyment of art.
Neuroscientists at the University of Milano-Bicocca in Italy had subjects study and rate 70 abstract paintings and drawings, and 80 realistic paintings and photographs. Then they received transcranial direct-current stimulation to specific parts of their brain. This technique sends small electrical impulses to the brain via electrodes placed on top of the head (no drilling needed!) I know it sounds medieval but it's quite modern, non-invasive and delivers zero feeling, no pain, no tickle, nothing. In fact the subjects had no awareness of the electrical impulses. Scientists aimed the current at what is called the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, a brain area responsible for emotional processing.
Then subjects rated a group of similar artworks. This time their ratings were significantly higher than the first round—but only for the realistic paintings and the photographs. Their appreciation of the abstract pieces did not change. According to the researchers, abstract art might be processed in a different area of the brain.
There has been a lot of work recently on enhancing experiences through non-invasive methods. Stimulating areas of the brain have been known to help people solve puzzles or math problems. There has also been success with increasing motor skills and learning - actually helping musicians or athletes improve their game.
While it brings to mind a sci-fi future of control - we are still a long way off from robotic overlords changing our thoughts. However, altering the way we see a painting or a math problem appears to be the first logical step, doesn't it?

Formed the clergy of his see into a community of canons regular. Rebuilt the cathedral in Lucca after it was burned by the Lombards.
The River Serchio frequently flooded the town of Lucca. Legend says that when the citizens called on Frigidian for aid, he asked for a rake or hoe, prayed over it, ordered the river to follow him, then dug new, safe course for the river by dragging the tool through the dirt.

Patient Stories
Lee Bond
Two years ago Lee's mother, Susie, enrolled him in Reid's Stop Taking on Pounds program (STOP) – a weight loss program for children.
Today, Lee credits Reid with changing his life.
Before entering the program, pediatrician Dr. Paul Rider shared his concern that Lee, because of his weight, was at risk of becoming a childhood diabetic. Liver tests confirmed Dr. Rider's suspicions; Lee's results were three times the normal level.
As a result of the class, Susie said, "We've learned that had Lee become a childhood diabetic, he would have been at risk of having heart disease, high blood pressure and would probably have become an adult diabetic."
Lee, who was the oldest in his class, said the STOP teachers asked a lot of the students, but the end result was worth it.
"We exercised in and out of class. They made us keep track of what we ate, and we had to share our list with the class. At first I wasn't so sure about it, but then I started losing weight."
In the end, Lee lost 19 pounds and said the hard work was worth it.
"I'm glad I did it – it changed my life!"

Shabby Chic Spacebars
Saturday, June 15, 2013
The Surfy Surfy house version of the Mini-Simms are called the Spacebar, they are handshaped by our resident guru Mike Slingerland.
These two are customs for friends in Japan.
These deconstructionist resin tints are the opposite of the usual crisp cutlaps and snappy pinlines we usually post.
The the rub outs on these boards are so shiny they were really hard to photograph.
Great job Moonlight Glassing crew for the professional "shabby chic" glass jobs.

The beautiful colours of Spring exploded in the Christian Louboutin Spring/Summer 2014 trunk show last Friday. I was immediately drawn to the multi-coloured spikes of Sweety Charity – ooh, need to get my hands on that cutie! Lucky me, I was given a private tour of the new collection by Joanna and Michelle from Christian Louboutin Asia. Besides the bright candy colours, Christian Louboutin is bringing minimalism back with transparent panels, nautical stripes, glitter and yes, kitten heels. Fancy His & Hers Louboutins? You'll get to match your man with the ladies version of his sneakers or espadrilles. After feasting my eyes on these gorgeous red soles, I was presented with Cronuts as a little token of appreciation from the Louboutin team. How cute is that?
Christian Louboutin S/S 2014 will be available early 2014 at Takashimaya Shopping Centre.
Candy-Colours! Don't you love the Sweety Charity in multi-colour spikes?
The new Paulina Strass in Satin Bouquet makes you wanna party all summer.
As seen on the Marchesa S/S 2014 runway, these laser-cut Impera are too sexy.
Did someone say Scarabs? Too cool for school.
Ankle booties. Totally fierce.
Now, women can have fun with the ladies version of these shoegasm.

Will Sonic Port users be able to access the new AMPLIFi app? Or is the AMPLIFi app only to be used with the actual AMPLIFi amp? I just purchased a Sonic Port not that long ago and while I really like the device itself, the Mobile POD app is just average. If Line 6 doesnt have plans to improve the Mobile POD app, I definitely think Sonic Port users should be able to use the new AmpliFi app to get new/improved tones.

Posted 27 January 2014 - 10:19 AM
you can use the Sonic Port / Mobile POD app and stream your output to the AMPLIFi which you can in turn control with the AMPLIFi app. Of course you can also stream from BIAS, Amplitube, Garage Band etc. and still use the AMPLIFI app just to control the amp itself.
I know the AMPLIFI will play your streamed audio but it is not clear whether that streamed audio can be processed by the onboard amp sims and effects. You may only be able to do all your guitar processing within your iGear and use another iOS product to mix with other audio and then stream the final signal to the AMPLIFI for actual amplification, like a glorified boom box.

last week's Conference on Disarmament, Stephen Rademaker, acting
assistant secretary, International Security and Nonproliferation,
submitted a draft Fissile Material Cut-Off Treaty that would be
acceptable to the Bush-Cheney administration.
September 1993, President Bill Clinton had called for a "multilateral"
convention banning the production of "fissile materials" for use
in nuclear weapons, and in March 1995 the Conference on Disarmament
established a committee to begin drafting such a treaty.
the 2000 Review Conference of the Treaty on Non-Proliferation of
Nuclear Weapons approved an "action agenda" for "systematic and
progressive efforts" to implement disarmament requirements of Article
VI of the NPT.
supported by Clinton, two action steps on that agenda — early entry
into force of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty and negotiation
of a multilateral, international and "effectively verifiable" fissile
material cutoff treaty (FMCT) — have not been supported by his successor.
fact, Secretary of State Condi Rice declined to even address the
2005 NPT Review Conference and prevented the final report of the
2000 NPT Review Conference from even being mentioned — especially
the "13 steps" to nuke disarmament — much less endorsed.
it was something of a surprise that Rademaker used his introduction
of the U.S.-supported FMCT draft to make the following remarks
to the Conference on Disarmament:
Sept. 24 of last year, the Board of Governors of the International
Atomic Energy Agency adopted a resolution formally determining that
Iran was in noncompliance with its safeguards obligations due to
its "many failures and breaches."
a result of this finding by the IAEA Board, as well as a separate
finding by the Board in that same resolution that Iran's nuclear
program raises questions that are within the competence of the
U.N. Security Council as the organ bearing main responsibility
for international peace and security, Iran was formally reported
to the Security Council in February of this year.
March 29, the Security Council, acting by consensus, adopted a
Presidential Statement calling on Iran to suspend its uranium
enrichment-related activities, cooperate fully with the IAEA's
ongoing investigations, and enter into good faith negotiations
on measures to restore international confidence in Iran's nuclear
United States expects the Security Council to fulfill its responsibility
under the U.N. Charter to address the threat to international
peace and security posed by Iran's illegal nuclear weapons program,
and it will be a defeat for effective multilateralism should the
Council fail to live up to this responsibility.
Rademaker's remarks are outrageously misleading. Moreover, what
has the Iran-IAEA issue got to do with the FMCT?
particular, since Bush launched his war of aggression against Iraq
— allegedly to destroy a nuclear program IAEA inspectors had been
unable to detect — Iran has been a principal advocate of the NPT,
CTBT and the FMCT.
— according
to Bush — the problem is that the NPT "has a loophole which
has been exploited by nations such as North Korea and Iran. These
regimes are allowed to produce nuclear material that can be used
to build bombs under the cover of civilian nuclear programs."
fact, all NPT-signatories not already having nukes — such as Iran

the IAEA for the "exclusive purpose" of verifying to other
NPT-signatories that no "source or special nuclear materials" are
used in furtherance of any military purpose.
best the IAEA could determine, up and until the time North Korea
withdrew from the NPT, no NPT-proscribed materials had been so used.
as best the IAEA can determine, no Iranian NPT-proscribed material
has ever been so used.
to Rademaker, according to IAEA Director-General Mohamed ElBaradei,
Iran is in complete compliance with its safeguards agreement.
the FMCT — even as drafted by Bush — is intended to prevent countries
that are outside the NPT — such as India, Pakistan, Israel
and North Korea — from producing any more fissile material for use
in nuclear weapons.
wonder Iran's delegate to the Disarmament Conference — Hamid Eslamizad
— noted that Rademaker's call for "effective multilateralism" by
signatories to the FMCT to deal with "the threat to international
peace and security posed by Iran's illegal nuclear weapons program,"
which the Security Council has so far declined to so characterize,
is strikingly similar to Bush's appeal back in 2003 for effective
multilateralism "by a coalition of the willing" to deal with what
Bush claimed was the threat to international peace and security
posed by Iraq's (non-existent) nuclear weapons program.

Broccoli Soup with Homemade Croutons
— Kimography 2/1/2010
Pan-Seared Rib Eye Steak
Searing adds flavor...lots and lots of flavor. The flavor is added to the outside, in the form of caramelization or browning. Searing requires high temperatures to achieve the desired results. As juices escape, the outside of the meat gets drier, and hotter. That hot, dry part of the meat is needed for the chemical reactions to occur that cause intense browning. The best cut of meat to use with this method of cooking is the rib eye or delmonico steak which have sufficient fat to produce a moist, tender result. Ideally, the steaks should be a minimum of one and a half inches in thickness. — sgrishka 11/22/2009

Charles McVety is back on his high horse it ain't pretty.
The dots aren't that difficult to connect.
A few weeks ago he wrote one of his outrage pieces on the federal government funding the Toronto Gay Pride parade for the fearful and urged recipients of his bellicose bellowing to write their members of parliament and the PMO.
It's probable they did exactly what they were told to do.
Daivd Akin finds an email goes out to MP's June 26th, telling them among other things:
Recently many MPs have received an increasing number of constituent communications related to the Marquee Tourism Events Program.
Nice work by David Akin and Kady O'Malley.
MP Brad Trost gives an interview to Lifesite News on July 6th, less than 2 weeks after McVety starts with his squealing divisiveness. Although funding is already handed out and in most cases spent, Trost makes sure to smear fellow MP Diane Ablonczy. If it was wilful party deflection it didn't work.
Who is Trost and why is he whispering to Lifesite?
Trost has a petition before the House of Commons to get International Planned Parenthood defunded.
The IPPF does not support physicians' freedom to practice according to their conscience and/or religious beliefs regarding abortion referral.
Note we're talking abortion referral here, not abortion per se. Brad thinks Christian docs should be able to refuse to even tell women seeking abortions where they might get one.
The petition is being circulated by 4myCanada, a neo-charismatic group.
Back to McVety.Â
Another aside. Is he still smarting because his candidate of choice for leadership of the Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario didn't get the job? Conservatives Frank Klees was the MPP behind the McVety bible college getting it's accreditation back, and was Charles choice for party leader in Ontario.
So MP Brad Trost tells Lifesite Diane Ablonczy is responsible for funding what McVety calls the 'sex parade' and that MPs were shocked, socially conservative Canadians should be shocked and that her funding file had to be handed over to Industry Minister Tony Clement.
Charles McVety/Institute for Family Values- to- Campaign Life/Brad Trost/4myCanada -to- MP's/PMO.
Could be the other way around, an attempt from the PMO to throw McVety a bone that backfired because it didn't stay in the backwaters.
McVety, who has never met a fellow theocrat he didn't like, is not called out by Christians for his lying. His piece is disgraceful.Â
His piece is an open threat to the Conservative Party. He takes off the gloves and with half truths and false equivocations does some serious verbal bullying. It works for James Dobson in the US, why not for McVety? It is what he does best.Â
Only heaven knows what it will take to stop politicians from letting him pull their strings. Hopefully in Trost's riding at least, the voters.
I thought Brad Trost's interview on Lifesite was because no reputable outlet would carry what he had to say about colleague Diane Ablonczy.Â
This is not about social conservative values, it's also about promoting his agenda, his pet petition project.
That Lifesite/Campaign for Life would dance to McVety's divisiveness is a two for one, women's health care and the Canadian gay community. Charles McVety's readers and 4myCanada"s god warriors are going to do what they are told, they aren't interested in the truth. McVety gets the attention he seeks, public appeasement, a chance to beg for money and promote his Miracle Channel show. (His Institute for Canadian Values is not a tax-exempt organization).
What do the federal Conservatives get?
Genuine ire from fellow Conservatives and some public egg on their party face.Â
Trost may have been given the full go ahead from the top to appease Charles McVety and his 'don't wait for the facts followers.' He dutifully played to the fringe and went mainstream. Opps.
Former MP Monty Solberg gets it.
Why is this MP talking?

Despite great news from
Eclipse Aviation in the past few days... there are a few flies in
the ointment at the Albuquerque, NM-based planemaker. Aviace
Limited -- a Swiss start-up jet charter company, and what would
have been one of Eclipse's first big customers -- is suing the
company, after it says Eclipse first delayed, then cancelled, a
112-plane order supposedly made four years ago.
The Albuquerque Journal reports that in a lawsuit filed
last week in US District Court, Aviace alleges it was to take jet
number 31 off the line as its first jet in 2004. When Aviace made the order in May
2002, Eclipse required a $2.010 million deposit --
which Aviace says it paid in January 2005 -- and that the company
agreed to pay a guaranteed price of $1.045 million per plane.
That's supposedly some $500,000 less than today's price --
and the timeframe was shifted six months after the deal was struck,
after Eclipse's switch from Williams
powerplants to the Pratt & Whitney Canada
turbofans used today. But Aviace says Eclipse breached the
agreement by bumping its first delivery even further, to aircraft
number 47.
Aviace says Eclipse then asked for a further $634,305 production
deposit -- which, Aviace claims wasn't part of its original
agreement with Eclipse. The suit alleges Eclipse canceled the order
last week, after Aviace refused to pay the additional charge -- and
that Eclipse kept $167,500 of money already paid as damages.
Aviace alleges the situation is all about money -- that Eclipse
deliberately cancelled the order, so it could sell the same planes
to another customer at greater profit.
"Eclipse desires to terminate the purchase agreement so as to
retain the aircraft under contract for sale to Aviace for Eclipse
to resell for a profit greater than that to be obtained under the
purchase agreement," Aviace claims.
The Journal reports the Albuquerque-based attorney representing
Aviace declined to comment on the matter. Eclipse spokesman Andrew
Broom told Aero-News the company could not comment on pending
On Tuesday, US District Judge Christina Armijo denied a request
by Aviace for a temporary restraining order, according to the

Book Review: A Knitting Wrapsody
By Sandy Amazeen Jan 2, 2011, 20:44 GMT
Designer Kristin Omdahl is one of the most innovative designers working today, and in this collection, she showcases her signature motif designs and experimental construction in 18 original patterns-five scarves, six wraps, five shawls, and two skirts-that provide new ways to think about knitting pieces that wrap, drape, or tie.Unlike other wrap books, this collection offers ingenious ways for wrapping your knitting, whether around the neck, shoulders, or waist. The ...more
One the heels of two books featuring innovative crochet shawls and wraps, Omdahl presents her first knit book with eighteen scarves, wraps, shawls and skirts focusing on designs meant to be wrapped or tied. While that may be Omdahls stated focus, these fresh patterns feature some unusual design elements that make them outstanding. The Infinity Cardi-wrap for example, combines self-striping yarn with an interesting design motif that makes up the garments back panel. Stitches are then picked up on the sides to create the front panels that feature 3/3 crossed loops for additional texture. The scalloped edge of the Warrior Wings Shawl worked in a light brushed alpaca yarn sets off the lovely lace pattern to a T while the unusual slits worked into the drapey Sand Dollar Belted Lace Cape allow it to be worn at least three different ways.
With attention to detail and elegant finishing touches, this collection is best suited for the intermediate and advanced knitter though there are some for the adventurous beginner. Watch the notes as they indicate which of the more unusual techniques are demonstrated in the handy DVD reference guide that is the next best thing to having a private instructor at your side. Each design is photographed from different angles showing the overall look plus close-ups and frequently, different ways of being worn. Whether your interest is lace, texture or construction details, this collection has a little something for everyone.

Gossip is the Devil's radio.George Harrison
Despite the propaganda, there are no monsters, or none that can be finally buried. Finish one off, and circumstances and the radio create another. Believe me: whole armies have prayed fervently to God all night and meant it, and been slaughtered anyway. Brutality wins frequently, and large outcomes have turned on the invention of a mechanical device, viz. radar. True, valour sometimes counts for something, as at Thermopylae. Sometimes being right though ultimate virtue, by agreed tradition, is decided by the winner. Sometimes men throw themselves on grenades and burst like paper bags of guts to save their comrades. I can admire that. But rats and cholera have won many wars. Those, and potatoes, or the absence of them.Margaret Eleanor Atwood
Adding radio-frequency identification and other sensors to everyday objects will create an Internet of Things, and lay the foundations of a new age of machine perception.Kevin Ashton
Anyone who has had actual contact with the making of the inventions that built the radio art knows that these inventions have been the product of experiment and work based on physical reasoning, rather than on the mathematicians' calculations and formulae. Precisely the opposite impression is obtained from many of our present day text books and publications.Edwin Howard Armstrong
It is not true that Kafka wanted Brod to burn his manuscripts after his death. Rather it is the case that Kafka was on fire to be published...rushed to the postbox day after day...ate with editors...intrigued for favorable notices...read the Writers Digest...consorted with critics...autographed napkins...made himself available to librarians...spoke on the radio...Donald Barthelme
From a magician's midnight sleeve the radio-singers distribute all their love-songs over the dew-wet lawns.Elizabeth Bishop
First radio, then television, have assaulted and overturned the privacy of the home, the real American privacy, which permitted the development of a higher and more independent life within democratic society.Allan David Bloom

Tim McNeilly (202) 690-0498
WASHINGTON, February 24, 2005--USDA Rural Development today announced a workshop on USDA Broadband Access programs, as well as other USDA Rural Development programs. The workshop will be held March 4, 2005 at the Sheraton Hotel in Harrisonburg, Virginia. Registration will open at 8:00 a.m. and the program will begin at 9:00 a.m.
"President Bush's initiative to have broadband access nationwide by the year 2007 is vital to economic development in rural areas," said Agriculture Acting Under Secretary for Rural Development Gilbert Gonzalez. "Rural housing, rural businesses, and community facilities all need to be connected to the digital information network for rural America to grow and prosper."
The meeting will be keynoted by U.S. Representative Bob Goodlatte, Chairman of the House Committee on Agriculture. Other speakers will include Acting USDA Rural Development State Director Philip Stetson, Acting Administrator for the Rural Utilities Service, Curtis M. Anderson, and Broadband team members.
The workshop will provide information on how to apply for the Rural Broadband Access Loan and Loan Guarantee Program, the Community Connect Grant Program, and the Distance Learning/Telemedicine Loan and Grant Program will be available. The workshop is at no cost to the participants, but space is limited and participants are encouraged to register prior to the workshop.
Discussions will include what programs are available, the eligibility, and other requirements; the application process, including the business plan and market survey, system design, credit support requirements and financial forecasts. The USDA Rural Broadband Access Loan and Loan Guarantee Program provides loans and loan guarantees for the construction, improvement, and acquisition of facilities and equipment for broadband service in eligible rural communities. Priority is given to applications that are proposing to serve areas where no residential broadband service currently exists. Information on the USDA Rural Broadband access Loan and Loan Guarantee Program is available at: http://www.rurdev.usda.gov.
USDA Rural Development's mission is to deliver programs in a way that will support increasing economic opportunity and improve the quality of life of rural residents. As a venture capital entity, Rural Development has invested over $50 billion since the beginning of the Bush Administration to provide equity and technical assistance to finance and foster growth in homeownership, business development, and critical community and technology infrastructure. As a result, over 800,000 jobs have been created or saved through these investments. Further information on rural programs is available at a local USDA Rural Development office or by visiting USDA's web site at http://www.rurdev.usda.gov.
USDA Rural Development is an Equal Opportunity Lender, Provider, and Employer. Complaints of
discrimination should be sent to: USDA, Director, Office of Civil Rights, Washington, D.C. 20250-9410

We booked this hostel because it's ridiculously close to the 'Melkweg', a 30 second walk to be exact. But also very good connections with the other parts of the citycenter, tram stops nearby the hostel. Helpfull and friendly staff. Our room was on the basementfloor, which did not bother us at all. Very clean and nice room (the carpet wasn't mentioned on the website, I'm allergic so that's a little unfortunate). Thebathroom was very clean aswell. We really enjoyed our stay!

Great hostel. Although our room was extremely small, There was no space to put our bags. We were in a 5 bed room but would have been more suitable as a 3 bed room. Also, our bin was never emptied and it was clearly full. This is a minor complaint. Hostel is in a great location with shops and restaurants a quick walk away. Staff were friendly and helpful. Would stay here again.

The Backstage Hostel was INCREDIBLE! The décor suited my style and made me feel at home! The stairs were an absolute killer- especially when our private double with ensuite was on the top floor, but that would not deter me from staying here again; in fact, I plan to return! The rooms were decorated with the coolest touches, it was clean, and we had a great little view from our window.

Really cool vibes. The bar was beautiful. The staff was really helpful and connected me to a doctor when I needed one. They also helped us find a great music store. Definitely not a great place for people who like to go to bed early as there are music shows that happen in the bar area and we could hear it from our room, but that didn't bother us. They also let us leave our backpacks for a few hours in a back area after we checked out which was great.

Green Cascade completely rehabilitated the polluted site of the Keller-Dorian factory, which made small metal parts for engraving and textile printing. Now the area features 100 apartments spread throughout five buildings, with four on the street and one smaller one located on the interior. Most urban blocks are designed like fortresses, with buildings facing the street all the way around and private courtyards inside. Atelier de la Passerelle's plan provides more space for circulation and gardening, which provides residences with more access to views and daylight.
Related: BORÉAL is a Glass-Clad Greenhouse Housing Project in France
All of the windows are shaded to keep the interiors cool, and increased insulation minimizes energy loss as well as noise between apartments. Rain screening with timber slats protect the upper penthouses and the interior building from the elements. All apartments have large outdoor balconies and flexible interior living spaces that can be customized. The garden and courtyards were designed by Atelier Anne Gardoni to reclaim rainwater while providing peaceful places to enjoy nature, and the roofs of all the buildings are planted with sedum.
