Is war between the Sudans inevitable?
Sudan and South Sudan are at war - of sorts - and have been for longer than it appears.
President Omar al-Bashir's bellicose declarations about liberating South Sudan from the "insects" who govern it stole the headlines.
South Sudan's conquest of the Heglig oilfields last week, with its far-reaching military and economic implications, is the physical proof of the conflict.
But it is not yet certain these recent events will result in meaningful and continued fighting outside the already embroiled border region.
President Bashir delivers two styles of speech.
In the first he reads from a measured text.
In the second he speaks off the cuff, often using humour, always stirring the passion of his supporters with dramatic rhetoric and images.
In the past he has talked of an Islamic Sudan with "no place for ethnic and cultural diversity" and hinted at painful events that might befall elections observers, UN peacekeepers or other enemies.
These kind of speeches energise the base, as they say in American politics - but do not always translate into a meaningful change to an established reality.
His fiery words in Khartoum and then el-Obeid, in front of military recruits wearing combat uniforms, may well fall into this category.
Land swap?After all, it is possible to argue Sudan and South Sudan are already fighting an undeclared war, and have been for some time.
Main disputes between the two Sudans
- The amount the South should pay Sudan to use its oil pipelines
- Demarcating the border
- Both sides claim Abyei
- The rights of each other's citizens now in a foreign country - there are estimated to be 500,000 southerners in Sudan and 80,000 Sudanese in the South
- Each accuses the other of supporting rebel groups on its territory
In May last year, before South Sudan became independent, Sudanese tanks rolled into the disputed region of Abyei, sweeping aside South Sudanese police, even though these men were probably soldiers put in a different coloured uniform.
Khartoum's "invasion" of Abyei was condemned initially, then in effect accepted as a reality on the ground, to factor into negotiations.
Juba may have been given a handy precedent for its recent takeover of neighbouring Heglig.
Already the idea of an Abyei-Heglig swap has been hinted at.
But Abyei is not the only example which suggests a long-running state of war between the neighbours.
Since rebels took up arms against Khartoum in South Kordofan, and then Blue Nile, there have been accusations they are being supported by Juba.
The SPLM-North rebels once fought alongside the men who won independence for South Sudan, but were left north of the border at separation.
The US and the UN, among others, have told Juba to stop supporting SPLM-North - an accusation South Sudan denies.
Khartoum has its own difficult-to-avoid charges to ward off too: South Sudanese rebels are largely based in the Sudanese capital.
International weapons monitoring group Small Arms Survey has shown, convincingly, that Juba and Khartoum are both almost certainly supporting proxy rebels on the other's territory.
Oil output hitIt has been a key and heated topic of the negotiations in Ethiopia's capital, Addis Ababa, which are on hold for the moment.
Khartoum perceives the well-armed SPLM-North's actions as proof that South Sudan has been attacking it for many months. Juba has seen ethnic violence fuelled over decades by Khartoum's divide and rule tactics.
There have also been direct Sudan-South Sudan clashes on the border before these latest events, and Sudan has been caught bombing South Sudanese territory too.
Under this reading, Sudan and South Sudan have been carrying out a sort of low-level, unacknowledged war for some time.
There is no doubt Heglig has taken the situation to a much more dangerous dimension.
South Sudan's troops have struck a crippling blow to Sudan's economy.
An oil industry source, who works in Heglig, says it may account for as much as 80,000 barrels per day of Sudan's 120,000-130,000 bpd output.
Khartoum cannot afford to lose this. It simply does not have the foreign currency reserves to keep importing fuel to make up the gap, and there are fears the prices of basic good could rise.
Many of the South Sudanese leaders, and the various Sudanese rebel groups with similar agendas, will hope this pressure could bring about the downfall of President Bashir.
In this context it is evident the Sudanese have to regain the oilfields, either through an South Sudanese withdrawal because of international pressure, or through force.
Or, as a Sudanese official put it, "by hook or by crook".
Military limitationsIt is also easy to see why President Bashir might favour at least a limited dose of military action.
He and others in his inner circle may hope the unifying nature of combat against a "common enemy" would rally a fractured nation behind him.
It may take more than this, because after two decades in power, in which the Sudanese have been constantly at war, the people's patience is running out.
South Sudan has its problems too.
The decision to shut down oil production in January - 98% of government revenue - after Sudan impounded South Sudan's oil shipments amid a dispute over transit fees - was highly popular, but the effects are being felt.
There is the beginnings of a fuel crisis in Juba, and infrastructure projects and development are on hold.
Here, too, President Salva Kiir may feel he can stave off criticism by the patriotic fervour created by fighting a war.
Both sides are mobilising troops.
Further fighting in Heglig is inevitable, and if Sudan retakes the oilfields, it is difficult to tell whether its soldiers would stop there.
The question is whether either side really intends - or is able - to spread the war further.
These have been skirmishes in a couple of locations, but no sign yet of major battles.
Both countries have serious military limitations.
Sudan is fighting off rebels in Darfur, South Kordofan and Blue Nile, and was not able to hold on to its prize possession, Heglig.
South Sudan does not have the firepower, particularly in the air, of its old enemies.
The lack of oil revenue also means both would struggle to pay for another costly war.
Both armed forces, and in particular South Sudan, have command and control problems, which means on a local level military leaders sometimes launch assaults which surprise the top brass in the capital.
An all-out war would create great misery, as wars do.
But it is not yet clear if either side has the resources, or the desire, to conduct a war for a sustained period of time outside of a relatively limited front.
Both Sudan and the South are reliant on their oil revenues, which account for 98% of South Sudan's budget. But the two countries cannot agree how to divide the oil wealth of the former united state. Some 75% of the oil lies in the South but all the pipelines run north. It is feared that disputes over oil could lead the two neighbours to return to war.
Although they were united for many years, the two Sudans were always very different. The great divide is visible even from space, as this Nasa satellite image shows. The northern states are a blanket of desert, broken only by the fertile Nile corridor. South Sudan is covered by green swathes of grassland, swamps and tropical forest.
Sudan's arid north is mainly home to Arabic-speaking Muslims. But in South Sudan there is no dominant culture. The Dinkas and the Nuers are the largest of more than 200 ethnic groups, each with its own languages and traditional beliefs, alongside Christianity and Islam.
The health inequalities in Sudan are illustrated by infant mortality rates. In South Sudan, one in 10 children die before their first birthday. Whereas in the more developed northern states, such as Gezira and White Nile, half of those children would be expected to survive.
The gulf in water resources between north and south is stark. In Khartoum, River Nile, and Gezira states, two-thirds of people have access to piped drinking water and pit latrines. In the south, boreholes and unprotected wells are the main drinking sources. More than 80% of southerners have no toilet facilities whatsoever.
Throughout the two Sudans, access to primary school education is strongly linked to household earnings. In the poorest parts of the south, less than 1% of children finish primary school. Whereas in the wealthier north, up to 50% of children complete primary level education.
Conflict and poverty are the main causes of food insecurity in both countries. In Sudan, many of the residents of war-affected Darfur and the border states of Blue Nile and South Kordofan, depend on food aid. The UN said about 2.8m people in South Sudan would require food aid in 2013. The northern states tend to be wealthier, more urbanised and less reliant on agriculture.

Boeing 747-8, Dreamliner get prepped for cell phone use
Passengers aboard Boeing's flagship 747-8 Intercontinental, as well as its 787 Dreamliners and 777s will have the capability to make cell phone calls as soon as 2013, the aviation giant said today.
As part of the company's move to boost connectivity on the most modern planes in its fleet, it plans to outfit them so that they can support cell phone usage, as well as Wi-Fi, live television, and "Internet access using in-flight entertainment."
Boeing said its planes should also support wireless streaming media by 2014.

On Tuesday, 4-year old Jayonna Black waited patiently to have her football signed by Washington Redskins players…she, along with other patients at the Children's Hospital, were invited by tight-end Chris Cooley to the Redskins training camp in Ashburn, Va. Don't it just make your heart melt?
Everyone is talking about Ron Artest joining the Rockets as the team hoops it up in China. Yao Ming doesn't seem phased but I'm sure he's stoked to have another balling humanitarian on his team. In case any of you out there still haven't heard, Ron Artest is NOT the bad-boy you all think he is. Sure, he's a bit scattered on the court, but off the court, he's one of the best guys out there. Period. The boys at the Starting Five just posted an incredible interview with Former NBA player Kermit Washington. In the interview, he details his first trip to Africa in 1994 to help after the genocide in Rwanda. After his journey, he founded Project Contact Africa and explains how Ron Artest helped 'jump start' the project. "Ron Artest was probably one of the most wonderful people we have brought over." He says, "All of them are wonderful, but Ron just went out of his way. Not only did he pay for a lab in our clinic, he paid for a doctor to go over this summer. He paid for two weeks, paid for food, paid for a place to stay. Ron Artest–wonderful guy." Please take a few minutes to read the full interview…if it doesn't touch you in some way then I don't think you have a soul.
Players from German FC Bayern Munich met with Japanese school children prior to a kicking the ball around with them. The tournament, hosted by Adidas, was held at Saitama stadium on July 30…and midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger earns a mighty-mighty-fine-man shout-out for his interaction with the kids…
MAN-U vs PORTSMOUTH FANS
Fans got a bit unruly at a 'friendly' soccer match in Nigeria last weekend when Manchester United took on Portsmouth FC…inside the stadium, Man-U won the match 2-1, but outside paramilitary personal tackled a crowd of angry fans who were protesting the hike in gate fees before the start of the game. Considering that the military guy is carrying his 'injured coworker' out of the crowd, I would say the conflict ended in a victory for the protestors.
"I win on every surface, no? I win on grass, on hard, on indoor, and on clay, too," Nadal said. "So if I am playing my best tennis I can win on every surface, no?" Yes, yes, and yes my precious little tapa. Our yummy Spanish treat beat Nicolas Kiefer 6-3, 6-2 Sunday while I was shaking off my Vegas hangover. Ain't nothing better than catching up on my favorites beast after a weekend of debauchery and discovering that this was his fifth straight tournament and 29th consecutive match win. Someone pa-leeze give me a piece of bread, some dipping sauce and a few olives so I can give Nadal a new surface to play on, no?
DAVIS vs DAVIS
Wonder how many non-basketball fans this is gonna confuse during the season…

Tags: buying real estate in the philippines, filipinos abroad, guide in buying real estate philippines, ofw
A lot of Filipinos abroad have no idea on how to buy a house and lot or a condominium here in the Philippines, so we decided to make this how-to-guide.
Buying a real estate property here in the Philippines when you're abroad does require additional steps and will incur more costs so it is essential to know the right thing to do before deciding to purchase one.
The first thing you need to do is to find a trusted property specialist here in the Philippines that can assist you all throughout the process.
Finding the right property specialist for you is another topic all by itself but here are some quick guidelines:
a) Find someone that you feel you will be comfortable to talk and deal with.
b) Find an agent or a specialist that will help you out without paying a certain fee (service fee, assistance fee, etc…). If you like to give your agent or specialist a "tip" for a job well done, then by all means do so.
The next thing to do is to appoint someone as your attorney-in-fact that will do and sign all the contracts on your behalf. This should be a trusted family member.
After choosing the right persons and assuming that you already have chosen your preferred unit, below are the steps to follow. The steps illustrated varies depending on the developer and bank.
Step-By-Step Guide on Buying a Philippine Real Estate Property For Filipinos Abroad
1) Your attorney-in-fact will reserve the unit for you. He/ She will sign the forms (reservation form, special power of attorney and authorized representative form) as well as pay the reservation fee.
The property specialist or agent will then send you the SPA for you to sign and consularize.
2) Once reserved, here are the requirements that you need to submit within 30 days:
a) Special Power Of Attorney (Consularized) – this must be authenticated by the Philippine consulate
b) Income Proof (3 months)
c) Proof of Billing (here in the Philippines)
d) TIN (for verification. If you don't have a TIN # in the Philippines, the property specialist may do this for you)
e) CEC (Certificate of Employment and Compensation) – needs to be consularized as well
d) Employment Contract (should be in English) – must be with the seal of the employer as well as a signature of the authorized personnel (HR manager, etc…). Can be photocopied as long as it is certified as true and correct
e) Post dated checks (PDCs) for the down payment. Requirement may change to some developers. If you don't have a checking account yet, your attorney-in-fact may open one in his name. You just need to fund it afterwards
f) Photocopy or scanned copy of your passport and IDs
3) Your attorney-in-fact will apply for a housing loan with the bank (if bank financing), developer (if in-house financing), or Pag-Ibig (if Pag-Ibig financing).
4) Send back all the requirements on #2 via courier to your agent/ property specialist.
5) The property specialist will then submit all the documents together with the PDC's to the developer and that is all there is to it. All you need to do is fund the checking account and continue to pay the monthly amortization.
The steps above will vary depending on the terms of the developer and the bank.

Excellent – I have got to articulate, impressed with your site. I had no trouble navigating through all the tabs also details seemed to be incredibly not very difficult to access. I recently found what I would like rapidly at all. Easy to watch unique. Surely appreciate it in the event you add forums or something, it might be a very appropriate way for your potential consumers to communicate. Exciting task..
George DeCarlo says:
Buying a condominium in the Philippines is quite complex with many details never explained. On the backend of the purchase you will find getting a Title is quite a ceremony. Unlike nations such as the US, getting the title is very important due to use of it for loans by others without your knowledge. This is against the law in the US but legal in the Philippines. At the time of turnover you may also find that what was promised and advertised is not delivered but the pressure to sign is there.
Place "soho central decarlo" in google for a link to the skyscrapercity.com website for a forum which has many links to other resources. Please read the many pages and ask questions. There are links to other forums to give you an idea on the serious situations that may develop.
Please seriously consider a book I should have gotten long ago. The Guide to Homeownership by Armando Ang is a blunt writing into the truth of the real estate market in the Philippines with a wonderful chapter on condos. Remember to demand copies of the Master Deed, Bylaws and Rules & Regulations before signing. These docs are kept hidden by most developers.
An important question for existing condominiums is whether or not the Board of the building is developer or Unit Owner controlled. Boards are developer controlled in the beginning seated in the capacity under the corporation that all condominiums must be formed. Unit Owner boards increase value as opposed to developer control.
Some quick hints: examine 5-9 units before making purchase; if there is any flooding around the building no matter how wonderful, say nice but no thanks; and since there is a glut from what we see, do not buy prebuilt at this time only existing units.

I was surprised but I heard it with my own ears. On ESPN Radio less than 30 minutes ago, just a day before the friggin AFC Championship, Sean Salisbury (the only ESPN 'expert' to pick us last week BTW) asked friggin rookie Colt Safety Antoine Bethea who he would rather play in the Super Bowl - New Orleans or Chicago. The dude kind of hemmed and hawed but never said anything like: 'we're not thinking about that, we're thinking only of the Patriots,' or anything like that. I couldn't believe it, and I hope it makes it to the Pats locker room. Time to open up a can of whoop ass now isn't it? QB12
you haven't been paying attention the past few years if this isn't classically set up for the pats to admoinish a total smack down. this is just too funny. I have never watched history repeat itself over and over like this with anything else before, except maybe the sox blowing pennants to the yankees! you know belichick has this team as motivated and prepared and focused as all get out for tomorrow. I'm pretty sure the pats are gonna go out and take this and go to the super bowl and win that. did you see the press conferences yesterday? brady looked like he knew something nobodyh else knew. he looked very sure of himself and unworried. go pats!
Why? Because of one game? Does Harper remember back to just last season (or the first game in their two game winning streak vs. the Pats) where Brady completed 66.6% of his passes for 265 yards, 3 TDs, and 0 INTs? Talk about being in Brady's head. Brady had one bad game. And even with him throwing for four picks and no TDs, the Pats were able to get 349 yards of offense and 20 points. I seriously doubt Brady will throw four picks this time around. As for Salisbury, I am glad he is getting Colts players to look past the Patriots and say things about the Pats. It can only work to our advantge.
Chris Berman picked NE, this morning. Even had a score, 25 - 23. Says he was 4 - 0 last weekend. Go Boomer!
Nick Harper should worry about keeping sharp objects out of his (ex?) wife's hands on the day before a big game.
PTI was debating who they'd rather see in the SB,Colts or the Saints (obviously the Pats and Bears were not even choices :bricks: ). I was so pissed I emailed them. Picking the Colts for Sunday is one thing, but to totally diss the New England Patriots as nothing but a mere speedbump on Peyton's Road To Miami is ridiculous,and I don't care what team you root for. It gets worse...they brought up Junior Seau's probable return to football next year,and Wilbron's comment was," Of course he should return,he wants to get to the SB". "A chance to play in" the SB would have sounded a bit better. Maybe I took that one wrong,but I don't think so,given the overall comments. I know, PTI is PTI, but still....:woohoo:
It's really crazy how things have shaken out this year. I never expected this team in another AFC Championship, but here we are. Although if you listened only to the media you'd think the Colts were just there to have a rough pre-Superbowl walkthrough scrimmage. I hope the Patriots win, just to put an 'STFU' in the craw of the world.

Maybe the reason they don't let West Coasters post in the Hurricanes forum is because we don't have any 'canes out here and they figure we are clueless.......

Many folks wonder how search motor optimization can operate on your website, what it actually does and how it will get you on major. Although the technological innovation is rather simple, it makes it possible for you noticeable exorbitant final results when you look at it in the holistic perspective. There are different sorts of search engine optimization and a single of them is on-website formatting which we will be highlighting listed here for far more search engine optimization to comprehend the notion it manipulates with. What is on-internet site research engine optimiztion formatting?
On-site formatting of Search engine marketing manages to tweak the subject material of your web site to your advantage. Initial, you have to determine how you want your website to be associated. Decide on a group of keywords and phrases you want to be joined to or what you are typically about. Just take for instance you are a diet advisor seo on the internet, you would want to be associated with any phrase related to fitness, health or nutrition. When a person types these kinds of wide variety of phrases in a lookup engine, your internet page really should be in a position to pop up. The difficulties even so happens in the reality that there are in all probability fifty million other internet websites giving the very same providers. Your target is now to outwit them in staying the initially decision seo when individuals search up via lookup engines. That is what Web optimization gives you. It ensures you a better spot of visual advertising as a result of higher rankings.

Wil Wheaton Mashed-Up GAME OF THRONES, THE BRADY BUNCH and It is So Good
By Alicia Lutes on June 18, 2014
You know by now that we here at Nerdist love us some Game of Thrones. I mean, who doesn't because what's not to like, right? There's dragons and harrowing stories of human triumph and failure set against the backdrop of a fantastical, intricate, batshit crazy sort of world. But because of all of that, sometimes it's hard to keep track of all the players. That's where Wil Wheaton comes in and does the best mash-up we'd never thought of: a Brady Bunch-styled parody video that lays it all out there. Because nothing makes bloody, epic gore more delightful than a campy 70s theme song.
(And yes, just because we have to say it, because Internet and the like, the video and this post will contain season 5 and earlier spoilers. Don't say we didn't warn you!)
There are children singing about Theon Greyjoy's penis, Ned Stark and his dead head, and of course the many, many sexual exploits of folks like Tyrion Lannister, Stannis and Melisandre, Robb Stark and Talisa, and of course those tres incest-y Lannisters. It's all so sing-song-y and hilarious you'll forget (once you learn all the words) that you're singing along to a tune about extreme fantastical violence and murder. It's great! So thank you, Syfy and The Wil Wheaton Project, for doing the lord's work and introducing the cast in a way that'll finally help so many of those GoT fans that are easily confused by its gargantuan cast of characters.
What'd you think of the video? Let's hear your thoughts in the comments.
THAT's FUCKIN' STUPID…BUT WHAT DO YOU EXPECT FROM A GROWN MAN HIDING IN A CLOSET???
Why is he 'hiding in the closet'? Because he plays board games? Or is it some equally arbitrary thing you don't like that he does?
are you like 10 or something i thought it was halarious and so what if hes in the closet what are you homophobic
Shiggles giggles, man!
[…] Weaton took the "Brady Bunch" theme and used the story to "Game of Thrones" … I'm not a GoT fan, so it makes little sense to me, but it's buzzworthy. So here's it is! […]
Cute. I still think Wil's show won't last, unfortunately, but this was cute.
[…] Wil Wheaton gets how hard it is to keep track of all of Westeros. Luckily, he gets by with a little help from the Brady's. [Nerdist] […]
[…] Wil Wheaton Mashed-Up GAME OF THRONES, THE BRADY BUNCH and It is So Good […]
Shut up Wesley!!!!!!!

Attachment Parenting International (API) promotes parenting practices that create strong, healthy emotional bonds between children and their parents. For life. So they can take those bonds with them into their adult lives and share them with their children. And their children can do the same. When we strengthen families, we nurture and fulfill our children's need for trust, respect, and affection, and ultimately provide a lifelong foundation for healthy, enduring relationships.
You have found the home of the South Austin chapter of Attachment Parenting International. We meet from 10:15 until noon at the Twin Oaks Branch Library on the third Tuesday of odd-numbered months (January, March, May, July, September, & November), unless noted otherwise. We have regular chapter meetings, some of which are open discussion forums and others feature a guest speaker presenting on topics related to the Eight Principles of Attachment Parenting. Meetings are free, for parents, grandparents and other family, caregivers, and kids.
We have book libraries with resources on everything from babies, breastfeeding, sleep, discipline, self-care, and more. We also have carrier libraries with Mei Tais, wraps, structured carriers, pouches, and ring slings. Our sling librarians can teach you how to wear the carriers and choose which ones are right for you, your child's size and personality, and the time of year. You are welcome to check out books and carriers between meetings. We also have a toy library for kids to play with during meetings.

Gay, Single, & Loving It!
We live in a society that places high value and expectation on being in a coupled relationship and singles are often stigmatized for their single-status. Gay men, in particular, are often labeled as being unable to develop and maintain long-lasting intimate relationships, adding yet another layer to this stigma. This can lead to feelings of low self-worth and inferiority, a sense that there's something wrong with you if you don't have a boyfriend, an excessive focus and preoccupation with your discontent with being single, and sometimes a compulsive drive to find a relationship just to satisfy that nagging need (which can be a dangerous and sabotaging maneuver if one's dating practices are conducted out of desperation rather than conscious intention).
For those who have not chosen singlehood as a lifestyle and do long to be in a relationship, this can be a painfully difficult experience. Special occasions, holidays, weddings, times of loneliness, and just witnessing other couples can be very triggering events for singles that serve to magnify their restlessness and unfulfillment with being solo. What these types of single gay men need most is a reassurance and recognition that this phase of life can be one of the most enjoyable and transformational times of their lives if they choose it to be. This article will validate the positive values of being single and will offer some suggestions for making the most of your single life.
Singlehood is the time in your life where you have the greatest degree of flexibility and freedom to do whatever you want. You can be more spontaneous, independent, selfish, and adventurous because there can be less commitments and more time to pursue the things you want to do; you can make your life into anything that you want it to be as you're completely in "the driver's seat." You have the ability to enter in and out of situations with relative ease and to meet a variety of new people. You are responsible only for yourself and can make choices and major decisions without having to take another into account or to have to answer to anyone. You don't have to deal with another's annoying habits or nuances and don't have to compromise. Other aspects of your identity (career, family, friends, etc.) can have more emphasis as there's less competition for your focus and attentions.
More importantly, though, being single puts you in the ideal position for cultivating yourself to reach your fullest potential as an individual. It's an opportunity for self-exploration and investing in your own personal growth and development. It's also an ideal time to learn what's needed to be fully prepared for love when you find it, to experiment safely with your sexuality, and to explore different types of relationships. It's fertile ground for learning about who you are and what your needs are. Harville Hendrix, Ph.D. says it best in his book "Keeping the Love You Find":"Singleness would be recognized as a vital stage of the journey to maturation, a time to learn about who we are, to learn responsibility and self-sufficiency, to identify our true desires, and to confront our inner strengths and demons, a time to make changes in the things that stymie our pleasure and progress in life, to learn how to connect and communicate on alllevels.

How to have Good dreams By M.Farouk Radwan, MSc.
How to have Good dreamsHave you been seeing bad dreams lately? We human beings have mastered self deception to the extent that we learned how to create a lie, live it and believe it. Dream interpretation is one of the most misunderstood sciences in our modern times and one of the fields that most people make uninformed conclusions about then believe in them. I get lots of mails from people telling me that whenever they see someone dying in a dream he dies later on. My usual response to such an mail is "And how many times have you seen things happening in dreams that never happened in real life?" When interpreting dreams, lots of people try to link to the dream to their own world then believe in the link they created even though it has no scientific base. In this article I will explain what dreams really are and tell you how you can have Good dreams. What dreams really mean?Dream interpretation code:
How to have Good dreamsContrary to common beliefs, Our dreams start when we are awake not while we are asleep. If your life is full of stress, unmet needs, problems that you are ignoring or accumulated guilt that you never deal with then surely your dreams won't be any better.

Tree concerns
Thankfully, we avoided major problems with (Tropical Storm) Iselle. We did, however, have a serious man-made problem here in Hamakua.
I have been watching the cute little eucalyptus saplings grow into 100-foot trees in less than 20 years.
It doesn't take a rocket scientist or a brain surgeon to see the problem with planting trees close to the highway and power lines.
Whoever was in charge needs a good spanking.
If you expected the trees to be 100 feet tall, they should have been planted 100 feet away. I would like for the tree people to make it their high priority to harvest all those fields first that are close to infrastructure.
There will continue to be a domino effect of trees falling. Thanks to HELCO for working late hours to get everyone back online. Why are they having to cut these trees, and will our electric rates go up because of mismanaged planting?
Edie Bikle
Mayor is MIA
This huge storm has come and gone, and everybody is pitching in. I'm curious … has anyone heard from Billy (Kenoi)?
Reed Vallance
Four lessons
OK, what have we learned from (Tropical Storm) Iselle?
1. Never say never: There's a first time for everything. Cliché? Yes, but how many were left unprepared?
2. Elections held on the day after a hurricane, where voters cannot get to the polls, must be postponed for all voters in the area affected, not just part. Voter turnout is traditionally poor in primaries, so the least we can do is honor the candidates with a healthy chance.
3. Maybe we can now focus our primary efforts on the war on albizia trees. These dangerous beauties were the major cause of the damage from Iselle. Puna looks like a war zone, and this is totally unnecessary. Time to rid the island of this hazard, for once and for all.
4. We must have unlimited gratitude for everyone who stepped up to kokua. Neighbors with chainsaws, folks riding around handing out bags of ice and water, not to mention all the professionals who rushed in to do the job of cleaning up this mess.
The deepest mahalos go out to you all.
Dawn Hurwitz
Got compassion?
Where's the mayor? Why haven't we seen him more on TV, radio and in the Tribune-Herald?
Does he not need Puna any more because he's already into his second term?
I have to believe that had Harry (Kim) been elected, he'd be out there removing fallen trees and delivering water to those in need.
Or at least he'd be expressing concern and offering kind words.
Seems to me, a little compassion would go a long way right now.

Man Is Killed In San Antonio Car Crash
A man died Thursday night after crashing his pickup on the Northeast Side of San Antonio. Police said the man, had been speeding west in the 1600 block of OConnor Road, near Knoll Creek Drive, when he lost control of his pickup and struck a fence, rammed into a pole and hit a tree.
The man's identification was still being withheld Friday night pending notification of his family. The loss of a loved one due to the negligence of another driver or faulty equipment leaves family members lost and confused. The wrongful death auto accident lawers of Fears & Nachawati can help.

Many slums in India don't have proper toilets or water systems. They are living in filth and relieving themselves wherever they are able to. No wonder so many people are sick and dying.
And the article said that about 60 percent of people in Mumbai live in slums. This is a disgrace, considering what a wealthy city Mumbai is. It's the heart of the Bollywood film industry. Isn't it crazy that there are celebrities living in huge, expensive bungalows and a few blocks away people are living impoverished in slums?

49 million people in the US are 'food insecure'. One in four children don't know where their next meal will come from, while others suffer the cruel irony of childhood obesity due to forced reliance on cheap food products.
A Place at the Table examines the shocking reality behind the American dream through the lens of some of the country's 'working poor'. Rosie is a fifth-grader who struggles to concentrate at school, distracted by constant hunger and forced to rely on hand-outs from friends. Tremonica is a Mississippi second-grader whose asthma and health issues are exacerbated by the largely empty calories her hardworking mother's wage affords.
Startling in its revelations, this film is essential viewing here in the UK, where a similar situation looms.
The filmmakers vividly illustrate the power and depth of the long-spiraling problem of "food insecurity" by immersing us in the hardscrabble lives of a cross section of our nation's poor. - Los Angeles Times
A Place at the Table makes a strong case that hunger for one is a problem for all. - Paste Magazine
Followed by a post-screening panel discussion including:
- Patrick Butler (Chair): Social Policy Editor for the Guardian
- Fiona Twycross: London Assembly member and Labour Politician
- Martin Caraher: Professor of Food and Health Policy at City University
Patrick Butler
Patrick is the Guardian's social policy editor, writing about poverty, inequality, welfare and public services. He's written extensively about food poverty and the rise of foodbanks in the UK, both in the paper and online through the Guardian's Cuts blog. He's been a Guardian journalist for 13 years, and was previously editor of its Society Guardian social affairs pages.
Martin Caraher
Martin has worked on issues related to food poverty and insecurity in England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Europe. His current work is on the proliferation of fast food outlets in areas of deprivation as well as the cost of accessing a healthy diet in these areas. The growth of food poverty in the UK along with the growth of food banks and the retreat of the state form food welfare provision is a focus of his current research.
Fiona Twycross
Fiona Twycross was elected to the London Assembly in May 2012 and is a Labour Londonwide Assembly Member. She has recently led an investigation in to the scale of food poverty in London on behalf of the Assembly's Health and Environment Committee. The report from this investigation A Zero Hunger City: Tackling Food Poverty in London was published in March 2013. Prior to her election she worked for the health charity Diabetes UK.
Please Note: There will not be any adverts or trailers and the film will start promptly at 7.30pm.

NOW that we are in the Autumn of the year, the jockeys in both racing codes, flat and over the jumps, are keeping a wary eye on how well or not they are doing on the winners table.
The title of Champion Jockey in either code is a prize to be cherished, for it means that the victor is the overall leader in his or her particular grade.
Taking the flat genre first, it did appear early on in the year that jockey Joe Fanning would be one of those right in the firing line for the title, for, during that early period, he was in the lead in the table, and seemed to be riding winners for fun.
His main stable, Mark Johnston's, had been going steadily in the early part of the season, but, from the beginning June on, seemed to have struck a really purple patch, which kept Fanning, after he had faded a bit, right back there in the top ten, and although not now a candidate for champion, should indeed have his best season ever. As the race for the title developed, the usual suspects, Buick, Moore, Hughes, de Sousa, and the reigning champion, Paul Hanagan, have, through sheer dint of talent, become grouped again at the business end of the table.
As I write, Richard Hughes and Ryan Moore are having a titanic neck and neck battle at the head of the chasing pack, with Hughes hoping for better luck than he had last season, when injury and suspension combined to actually rob him of the elusive title. Buick, De Sousa, and Hanagan, are at this stage around thirty behind the leaders, and, unless something unusual happens, look to be out of the running.
Maybe this year Hughes can get the title he so richly deserves!
The flat season finishes in early November, but, over the sticks, the champion won't be crowned until April, 2013.
At the moment Maguire, Johnson, and the irrepressibleMcCoy are well ahead of the rest, and, barring accidents, it looks to be Tony McCoy again to win the title that he has retained ever since 1996.
This just has to be the most stupendous achievement in the racing firmament!
This Saturday, for our bit of fun, we trudge to Haydock Park, hoping to pick up the winning thread again.
In the opening Nursery, The Taj appeals as the pick of the Hannon pair, and can win for Tadgh O'Shea, with Secret Lock there to see he does it right, In the Lancaster Stakes, Henry Cecil's Jet Away should oblige, although Questioning may ask the question!
The handicap race is as usual competitive, but I think that Opinion, from the Stoute stable, is classier than this lot, and may be good enough to beat Invisible Hunter.
The Fillies Stakes looks at the mercy of Dank, who has Irish History to contend with.
The weather forecast for the weekend is supposed to be blue skies and sunshine, but I'll believe it only when I see it!
Best of luck to you all anyway!

Good morning!
I was looking through a bunch of old pics today and thought that I would gather all the "skiboxed" cars and give you a little history behind the different them!
The initial idea of a ski box on a sports car came about when I had a few (a lot) of beers with a friend and we started talking about how funny it would look to put rally wheels and raise a Gallardo to make it look like a rally car. We than came into the idea of a ski box and in the beginning it was just us joking around but after a while I thought, why not! I always loved doing things that no one else would do so this seemed like a perfect plan!
So looking back I am super happy that I was stupid enough to start doing it as I now love that it enables me to bring these sweet cars to the ski hill! And it was extra funny to see Koenigsegg putting a box on their Agera R as I knew that the idea must have come from someone that had already done that for a few years!
Below is a little caption of the cars:
The original Gallardo! I think this was back in 2007 if I remember correctly. Stock 2004 Gallardo with a custom wrap and Tubi race exhaust.
I then traded that in for this Murcielago LP 640. Stock with staright race pipes!
That was than traded in for the LP670 SV that was used during two Gumballs, but unfortunately this one did not get to go skiing to much as I knew the miles was a bit high already! Stock with straight pipes!
So I sold that and got myself a Nissan GT-R as I wanted to be able to drive it every day and not worry about the miles! The winter I had this one I drove 50 000km so I think it was a smart plan to put the miles on this one rather than a 670 SV as that would have killed its value! Loved every second in this car, it truly is an amazing machine. During Gumball the box was tested in 292km/h, I am not sure how fast the K egg has tested its box at but I think the 292 could be the WR for a ski box car?
I did however miss the crazy look of Lambos so I went back to basics with another Gallardo, this time tweeked with a DMC body kit and a better earodynamic fitting of the box! We did 260km/h in this one and the box stayed on! This was well used as well as we put 40000km on it in a winter!
I then decided to sell the Gallardo as I saw that PPI kit for the R8. Took me a while to build it as theis is by far the most custom cars out of all of the ones I have had, but it has made up for it with a Gumball and a lot of time in the snow!
And as you have seen it recently got a new wrap for this winter. It was planned to be sold but as I have yet to get a good offer I will just keep it until I get one, and I will admit that I did not regret keeping it when I was driving around last week!
Have a few new "back up" cars being worked on at the moment so stay tuned for those! Time for me to head to the gym and keep working hard so I can keep playing with things like this!
A fascinating discussion is worth comment. I believe that you need to write
more on this subject, it may not be a taboo subject but typically people don't
talk about these topics. To the next! All the best!!
Excellent goods from you, man. I've be mindful your stuff prior to and you're simply extremely fantastic.

hur snabbt har du kört med r8:an med takbox?
Hey Jon, I'm somewhat disappointed that you're moving on from the R8. An image of your R8 has been my computer wallpaper for the last year or so. But I'm excited to see what is next! Best wishes!
When you have time, can you please do a recap on all the cars you owned… (Hans did that on his blog once)

How many ski boxes have not stayed on at high speed…?
Hi Jon,
Great work, wrapping the R8 in the hotel garage in Solden! The looks are great. Well done!
It was nice talking to you in the garage. BTW great movie "Head one for All, with Lindsey Vonn, Simon Dumont, Ted Ligety, Julia Mancuso, Bode Miller, you, and Aksel Lund Svdinal. Next time it would be an idea to chase them with te R8….. Good luck with your training, keep in shape man.

I did however miss the >>carzy<< look of Lambos so I went back to basics with another Gallardo
Little typo, but next to that…. Awesome cars!
Love this post!

Our Chief Product Strategist, Navin Ganeshan, was interviewed by Chris Cashman for MSN's Business on Main this week. Chris and Navin spoke of our recent Small Business Success Index showing how awareness of mobile marketing is up but usage is still low. Most owners consider mobile marketing to be "ahead of its time" (24 percent) for small business or "cutting edge" (36 percent). Only 15 percent of small business owners believe that mobile marketing would be "extremely" or "very valuable" to their enterprise, and another 20 percent feel it would be "somewhat" valuable.

Congrats to Geoff Roes who finished the 2012 Iditarod Trail Invitational, a 350-mile race across the Alaska backcountry, placing first in the foot division and fourth overall. Roes posted a full race report on Monday with photos and detailed daily reports that convey the both the extremity and the sense of accomplishment of this undertaking.
Going into the Iditarod Trail Invitational, my primary focus was on savoring and embracing whatever experience the trail threw my way. My secondary focus was to do whatever it took to make it the full 350 miles to the finish in McGrath. In two previous attempts (' 08 and '09), I had dropped out, not having made it beyond mile 150. This time around I really wanted to start much slower, and speed up only if I was feeling good later in the race. Therefore, I was actually relieved the day before the race when looking at a weather forecast brought up statements like, "blizzard warning" and "10 to 15 inches of new snow." I figured it couldn't be that bad, and anything that helped me stick to my plan of starting slow would be a good thing.
Continue reading Geoff's Iditarod Trail Invitational Race report starting with Day 1.

WJBC Radio November 28, 2011 By Alex Degman SPRINGFIELD – A statewide education survey has garnered better-than-expected results, and there's still time to give input.
Lt. Gov. Sheila Simon heads the Classrooms First Commission, which wrote a survey to gauge opinions about school district efficiency. Simon said this isn't like other surveys that will sit on the shelf and gather dust once completed.
"That's definitely part of our mission from the get-go, is to not make this something that's just a good collection of ideas with a staple on it," she said. "We want to make sure these are good ideas that get put into action and that benefit students in the state of Illinois."
Simon said more than 300 residents have so far filled out the survey online, combined with the hundreds who have testified in person at commission hearings. There was a hearing recently at Heartland Community College.
Residents can fill out the survey through Friday. The Classrooms First Commission's report is due to the governor next summer.
The survey is available at ltgov.il.gov.

While I can certainly appreciate the idea behind the cover of the September/October 2013 CJR, I do not appreciate the f-word being used so blatantly and prominently.
I am not on a crusade to clean up America's pottymouth. I realize millions of Americans use this word every day. I have friends who can use it as a noun, adjective, verb, and adverb. I understand the concept of free speech; and, as a lifelong journalist, freedom of the press is something I advocate and cherish.
I'm sure there are instances where I would agree the use of the word is warranted. The cover of a magazine describing journalism isn't one of them.
Donnita Nesbit Fisher
Managing Editor, Van Zandt Newspapers

Could we keep the profanity off the cover?
While most readers of the Review would never admit to being offended by the crude language, some of us leave the magazine lying around the house or on our office desk where it is subject to being read by those not sophisticated enough to recognize the high quality journalism being displayed by its use. Seriously, would you consider this appropriate on the front page of a newspaper? If not, why would you think it is okay on the cover of your magazine?
Hugh Bouchelle
Buena Vista, VA
I spent 30 years in broadcast news; for the past 18 years I have been teaching media relations to agencies of public safety and municipal government around the country. I am a lifelong Journalist with a capital "J" and I am very proud of that. Today when I received the September/October issue of CJR I was appalled and ashamed.
How dare CJR include the F-bomb on its cover! The F-bomb has no place anywhere in CJR! Putting it on the magazine cover was outrageously offensive! Whatever else Journalism may or may not be, it must lead, not pander or follow. As we in the United States continue to witness the slow but steady degradation of social norms, Journalism—with a capital "J"—must stand as one of the last bastions of civilized discourse, "to speak out for what is right, fair, and decent" as CJR proudly—rightly!—highlights "from the founding editorial, 1961."
When Newsweek magazine began dropping the F-bomb casually into its reporting, I cancelled my subscription. With sadness, and with deep regret, I also do so now with CJR. CJR's insensitive, stupid attempt at—humor? sensationalism? "edginess?"—was sick, lame, and wrong. You have lost all credibility with me. Please cancel my subscription immediately and send me a check for the unused balance. Alternatively, feel free to "keep the change" and apply that money toward trying to recover CJR's integrity and sense of propriety and direction going forward.

You stay home. I'll go.
I think the word Jay is searching for but for some reason is reluctant to use is that journalism is about public things rather than private things ("The 'awayness' problem," CJR, September/October). Also, for those of us who study journalism, I think it muddies the waters to think of journalism as an act rather than an occupational group. Journalism is a culture; it has its own folkways, its own sense of the world. A blogger may produce news but isn't part of this culture. So I think it is better to say that news production is an act, and journalism is only one group of folks who produce the news. Saying it this way retains an important distinction, in my mind.
David Ryfe
Comment on cjr.org
An old friend of mine, Kristie Linden, a journalist at the Jeannette Spirit newspaper in Pennsylvania, once expressed this concept of "awayness" to me beautifully. Discussing how she views her role as a journalist in Jeannette, she said, "You've worked all day; it's raining. You stay home. I'll go."
Jennifer Day
Comment on cjr.org
Journalist, a.k.a. park ranger
While I respect many of the respondents' opinions on "What is journalism for" (CJR, September/October), it rings a bit too idealistic. If the summation of these entries was true, journalists would be like mail carriers and park rangers—publicly funded for the common good.
What journalism is for is to make money. Through history (and especially now), the industry's decisions are made with the best interest of finances in mind. Top-level decisions that align with the greater journalistic good are more likely happy coincidences than public missions.
I don't want this to be cynical, just representative. I believe in the passion and power of journalists. But I also believe that to gauge the utility of journalism without addressing financial incentives is naive at best, and destructive at worst.

One of the many reasons why you should use the internet, to obtain a detailed set of directions on how to remodel your kitchen, is because it is free to use. When purchasing materials at your local home improvement store, you may not be provided with a set of directions. While many kitchen cabinets sets come with a set of directions, not everything else does. If you are purchasing a set of something, such as cabinets, you are more likely to get a set of directions than you were if you were just purchasing supplies. For instance, if you are interested in retiling your kitchen floor or installing new lighting in your kitchen, you may need to find directions elsewhere. It is always possible to purchase how-to books, but why would you want to, especially when you can get the same information for free online?
In addition to being free, you will also find the amount of information amazing. As previously mentioned, whether you are looking to remodeling your entire kitchen or just a part of it, you can easily find the directions or instructions that you were looking for online. For example, online, you should be able to find instructions on how to reinstall a kitchen countertop, install a set of kitchen cabinets, replace your kitchen flooring, as well as install new exterior light fixtures. Essentially, whatever you are looking to do, you can find a detailed set of instructions online. You may also enjoy the fact that many of these directions comes with step-by-step drawings or pictures. Check out the newest led lighting fixtures out in the market that will make your kitchen glow in a different light that the rest of the homes in the neighbourhood.
Now that you know why you should find kitchen remodeling instructions online, you may be wondering how you can do so. Online, there are, literally, an unlimited number of websites that offer you information, as well as instructions for most kitchen remodeling projects. One of those websites is likely to be a home improvement store. If you know the online website of one of your local home improvement stores where you can find kitchen pendant lighting, you are advised to visit it and look around. In addition to finding a detailed set of directions on how to remodel a particular part of your kitchen, such as your sink, you may also find the products, supplies, and tools that you may need or want to have.

Through his website 'Paddy not Patty,' Marcus Campbell makes clear the important difference between 'Paddy' and 'Patty' just in time for this year's St. Patrick's Day.
When shortening the phrase 'St. Patrick's Day,' many people erroneously turn to 'Patty' instead of 'Paddy' to replace the Patrick. No more, says Campbell on his website, whose header reads "The provisional government of Paddy, Not Patty to the people of the New World."
Campbell breaks it down succinctly: "Paddy is derived from the Irish, Pádraig, hence those mysterious, emerald double-Ds. Patty is the diminutive of Patricia, or a burger, and just not something you call a fella. There's not a sinner in Ireland that would call a Patrick, 'Patty.' It's insulting. It's really as simple as that."
Win a round trip, seven-night vacation to Ireland this St. Patrick's Day
What's going on in Ireland in March - St Patrick's Day events, music, festivals, and more
Still curious about which shortened version of St. Patrick you should go with?
It's Paddy, not Patty. Ever.
Saint Patrick's Day? Grand.
Paddy's Day? Sure, dead-on.
St. Pat's? Aye, if ye must.
St. Patty? No, ye goat!
For Campbell, opting for 'Patty' is purely a 'Daft Eejit Version.'
In addition, Campbell makes clear that shamrocks have only three leaves, Irish Car Bomb drinks and cupcakes are still considered controversial and shouldn't be taken lightly, and in certain contexts, the term 'Paddy' can be read as ethnic slur.
