Serve in AmeriCorps
AmeriCorps is a domestic service organization in which thousands of young men and women are working in community service projects around the country in exchange for a living allowance averaging $7,500 per year; health care; child care when needed; and an education award of $4,725 per year for paying back a student loan or for financing postsecondary education. Under some circumstances a person can serve part time and receive an education award of $2,362 per year.
AmeriCorps projects serve communities throughout the country. All meet at least one of four national priorities: (1) education; (2) public safety; (3) human needs; and (4) the environment. For example, AmeriCorps members teach state-of-the-art computer skills to teenagers, tutor grade-school children in basic reading, or organize innovative after-school programs in some of the education projects. AmeriCorps members in environmental projects clean up urban streams and inland waterways, monitor dangerous trends in air quality, or test-start city-wide recycling programs.
There are many different points in a person's educational career when participation in AmeriCorps is an option: right after high school; during or after college; and during or after graduate school or occupational training. AmeriCorps members are recruited locally and nationally. To find out more about AmeriCorps, call the AmeriCorps Hotline free of charge at 1-800-94-ACORPS (1-800-942-2677) or TDD 1-800-833-3722. You may also visit the AmeriCorps web site at: www.americorps.org.
Take Advanced Placement (AP) Courses and Exams in High School
As discussed in an earlier section of this book, many high schools offer Advanced Placement (AP) courses and exams. AP courses are college-level courses that help students prepare for college-level work. After taking AP courses, students can take AP exams offered in the same subjects as the AP courses. If students score a grade of 3 or higher on an AP exam, they can often receive college credit. Students with high grades on AP exams in many different subjects are sometimes granted a full year of course credit at the colleges where they enroll. The receipt of course credit can result in savings in college costs. These savings can be quite large if it means that a student is able to enter into a college as a second-year student; such a student might save the cost of tuition and fees for a whole year of college.
However, not all colleges and universities give college credit for a grade of 3 or higher on an AP exam. Contact your child's high school to find out if AP courses and exams are offered. Write to the admissions office of the colleges that are of interest to your child to find out if they give credit for an AP exam grade of 3 or higher. For more information on AP courses and exams, see the address and phone number in the last section of this guide.
Participate in a Career-Focused Educational Program such as "Tech-Prep" or "School-to-Career"
As discussed earlier, some high schools offer career-focused educational programs that provide students with a set of high school courses that are formally linked to courses offered at local community or technical colleges. These "tech-prep" or "school-to-career" programs, as they are often called, offer students the opportunity to go through a sequence of career-focused courses in high school that prepares them for an apprenticeship program or for a specialized sequence of college courses in a particular occupational field. Thus, students who master certain technical and occupational skills and knowledge in high school do not need to repeat the same courses when they enter college or an apprenticeship.
In some of these programs, students who take the specialized sequence of courses in high school can sometimes be awarded college credit or advanced standing in the occupational program at the college level. This can save students time and money. It also means that students can gain access to more advanced college courses much earlier in their college careers. To find out if such career-focused programs exist in your community, ask your child's guidance counselor or teacher, or staff at a local college. To learn more about career-focused programs like tech-prep and school-to-career programs, contact the organizations listed in the last section of this guide.

- 2 tablespoon(s) unsalted butter, plus more for the dish
- 1.50 pound(s) sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
- 1/3 cup(s) extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 teaspoon(s) thyme leaves
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground pepper
- 1 pound(s) torchio or rigatoni
- 2.50 cup(s) milk
- 2 tablespoon(s) all-purpose flour
- 1 cup(s) (5 ounces; packed) shredded imported Fontina cheese
- 1 pound(s) Cantal cheese or other Swiss-style cheese, 3/4 pound cut into 1-inch cubes, 1/4 pound shredded
- 3/4 cup(s) (packed) freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
- 1 pinch(s) nutmeg, freshly grated
- 1/2 cup(s) heavy cream
- 1 head(s) (large) radicchio, sliced 1 inch thick
- 3/4 teaspoon(s) minced rosemary
- 4 ounce(s) pecans, chopped (3/4 cup)
- Slivered flat-leaf parsley, for garnish
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly butter a 9- by 13-inch baking dish. On a baking sheet, toss the sweet potatoes with 1/4 cup of the olive oil, the thyme, and 1 teaspoon of salt; season with pepper. Roast the potatoes for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender.
- Meanwhile, cook the pasta in a pot of salted boiling water until almost al dente, 5 minutes for torchio and 10 minutes for rigatoni. Drain, rinse under cold water, and return to the pot.
- In a small saucepan, bring the milk just to a simmer. In a medium saucepan, melt the 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the flour and cook over moderately low heat, whisking frequently, until lightly golden, about 3 minutes. Whisk in the hot milk in 3 additions until incorporated. Cook over moderate heat, whisking often, until thickened, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the Fontina, the shredded Cantal, 1/4 cup of the Parmigiano, and the nutmeg until the cheeses are melted. Stir in the heavy cream and season with salt and pepper. Stir the cheese sauce into the pasta.
- In a medium bowl, toss the radicchio with the rosemary, the remaining olive oil, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Season with pepper and toss, then add to the pasta and mix well. Spread half of the pasta in the prepared baking dish. Tuck in half each of the sweet potatoes, cubed Cantal, and pecans. Repeat with the remaining pasta, sweet potatoes, Cantal, and pecans. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of Parmigiano on top.
- Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 10 minutes. Uncover and bake for about 10 minutes longer, until the cheese is melted and the pasta is tender. Let the baked pasta stand for 15 minutes. Garnish with the slivered parsley and serve.

For ten years he is not known to have had even one steady job. It was only for two brief periods that he worked as a waiter, once in a hotel and once in a social club, where they soon discovered his penchant for theft and fraud. He kept looking for ways to lead a comfortable, parasitic life on easy money. Testimony: "I [name is omitted] born in Cárdenas, employed as a chambermaid in the hotel [name is omitted], in Varadero, had an intimate relationship with Lázaro Rafael Munero García, from 1991 to 1994, during which time he served a sentence for burglary. During the time I was with him, I knew him as a restless, whimsical, and socially irresponsible person. When he got an idea in his head, nothing would stop him till he had done it, even if it could cause problems." The burglary referred to in that testimony took place on May Day, 1993. Sentence No. 347, pronounced in the month of October 1993 by the Fifth Court of the People's Provincial Penal Court of Matanzas, indicates in its first paragraph that defendants Lázaro Rafael Munero García and Julio César González Caraballo, by common agreement, set off during the night of May Day, 1993, for the municipality of Varadero [...], for the hotel Siboney, and decided to break into room number 120 to take whatever they could from there. The German tourist Milhelen Kalan was a guest in that room with his granddaughter. Finding no one in the room at that time, they broke three panes of glass, which made up the window [...]."
A long narrative follows. After numerous paragraphs and whereas clauses, it concludes with the sentence stating that: "We should punish, and we will punish defendant Lázaro Rafael Munero García, to two years imprisonment, and defendant Julio César González Caraballo to three years imprisonment, both of them as perpetrators of the crime of burglary," with the corresponding accessories. Furthermore they are ordered to compensate Milhelen Kalan Van Hofe for the amount of 236 pesos and 55 cents in local currency [actually the amount is in dollars, at an exchange rate of 1 to 1]. Another significant testimony: "I [the name is omitted] was born in Jagüey Grande and I am employed as [position and workplace and municipality where she is based are omitted]. I met Lázaro Rafael Munero García in 1999, when we began a sexual relationship while I was visiting the village [name is omitted]. Regarding this relationship, I can say that it ended in the month of August that year since Lázaro no longer wanted to see me, and I then got involved in another relationship. "I remember that finding myself in that situation, and though I cannot remember the exact date although I am certain it was at the end of September, several people came up to my house to tell me that Lázaro was in the cafeteria [the name of the cafeteria and the street where it is located in the village are omitted], and wanted me to go and see him, which I did. However, when I arrived he asked me to walk with him out the back of [the name of the place is omitted, to not indicate the village]. Among other things, he said that I was betraying him and he slapped me on the face again and again while telling me that when he sent for me I had to come immediately, which I agreed to do so that he stopped the beating. When this was over, he took me back to the cafeteria [the name is omitted] and left. I have not seen him again."
Even when this and the previous statement are signed, and their authors, with moral courage worthy of praise, are prepared to expose themselves, it does not seem to us appropriate to do it due to the sensitive nature of the issue and the advisability to preserve their identities in circumstances that could lead to more disgraceful personal situations.
The important thing about that last statement is that it refers to events that took place relatively far away from Cárdenas, eight weeks before the fatal journey in which Lázaro Munero left the country in a fragile boat, taking Elizabeth and Elián with him.
During that period he showed his aggressive, threatening, and abusive nature more than ever, in this case directed at a young, modest, and helpless girl, simply because she refused to give in to the passing whim of someone who was about to leave the country and would very soon stop seeing her all together.
How did he treat Elizabeth during that period and what threats was he making to her, resigned, docile, and almost certainly terrified as she was?
The investigators have managed to gather all the material and documents, police files and legal proceedings, accusations, fines, convictions for armed robberies, fist-fighting, felonies, swindle, the crime of buying and selling stolen goods, all sorts of illegal activities, alcohol abuse and others; a long list of common crimes of various degrees of seriousness accumulated in his short and troubled life as a criminal; whole pages of fingerprints and evidence that describe and demonstrate Lázaro Munero's illegal and immoral conduct.

This despite tobacco companies' lobbying to dilute the new rules.
The electronic cigarette consists of a battery on the bottom and a bottom-coiled tank on top. Electronic cigarettes are growing in popularity, but concern still lingers nationwide about their safety. e-Cig culture includes "vaping" meet-ups and an array of build-your-own products.
The European Parliament voted last week to toughen regulations on the marketing and sale of tobacco that puts the Continent ahead of the United States in discouraging smoking, particularly among children.
Tobacco companies lobbied European lawmakers heavily to dilute the new rules, and some changes made at the last minute weakened an earlier proposal. But the guidelines still represent a big improvement from current European rules.
The most controversial part of the European rules concerned electronic cigarettes, the battery-powered devices that people use to inhale nicotine vapors. These devices are safer than conventional cigarettes because they do not contain carcinogens and other toxic substances from burning tobacco. But nicotine in any form is highly addictive and can be dangerous, especially to young people. Under pressure from the makers of e-cigarettes, European lawmakers rejected a proposal to regulate those products as drug-delivery devices. But they did vote to confine their sale to adults and applied the same marketing and advertising rules to these products that apply to conventional cigarettes — a significant improvement.

Polar Petroleum Corp. Enters License Agreement With Fugro To Acquire Magnetic Data & Interpretation For The Company's Alaska-Based North Slope Projects
ANCHORAGE, Alaska, May 23, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Polar Petroleum Corp. (OTCBB:POLR) (herein after "Polar Petroleum", "Polar" and/or "the Company") announces that on May 17, 2013, the Company signed an agreement with Fugro Gravity and Magnetic Services (part of the Fugro group) to license magnetic data and receive interpretation services for Polar's Hemi Springs Project and Franklin Bluffs Project on Alaska's North Slope. The magnetic data and related interpretation is expected to reduce exploration risk in a cost-effective manner while assisting in the exploration for oil and natural gas.
Fugro Gravity and Magnetic Services (Fugro) houses the world's most comprehensive, privately owned non-exclusive airborne, land and marine potential fields geophysical database. The database includes roughly 14,000,000 line kilometers of aeromagnetic data and 2,000,000 stations of land gravity data worldwide. Polar Petroleum will license only that data that is of specific relevance to the Company's 2 North Slope projects.
Fugro also provides leading edge data interpretation, and has worked on datasets from around the world, ranging from regional frontier studies to the prospect level. On January 31, 2013, CGG (formerly CGGVeritas) acquired Fugro's Geoscience Division in a EUR975m transaction, giving it a leading position in the high-tech integrated geology and geophysics and reservoir characterization market.
Polar Petroleum will use the magnetic data and interpretation provided by Fugro as tools for general planning and project analysis. Polar Petroleum Corp.'s President and CEO, Daniel Walker, commented: "By licensing only the magnetic data pertinent to our 2 North Slope projects, and receiving Fugro's related interpretation, we'll gain world-class data and analysis in a cost-effective way. From there, we can integrate the magnetic data into our exploration process, providing assistance in structural mapping and seismic modeling while providing opportunities for confirming or questioning any existing interpretations."

COMIC BOOK COMPULSIVE — Garth #4: The Quest for the Q Ray!
As previously established I've always been intrigued by Garth, the UK's newspaper plainclothes lowercase superman. So far I've mostly only been able to read the later more grownup Frank Bellamy version but thanks to the Atlas reprints from Australia I've had a chance to see the work of original artist John Allard. Although frequently compared to Superman (though I've always thought he owed more to a pre-Time Top Brick Bradford) Allard always sited Terry and the Pirates as being more of an influence on the strip and, boy, can you see that in The Quest for the Q Ray.
It's a rollicking Boys Own Adventure full of a lost cities and master criminals, supercomputers and of course, the titular Q Ray. It's painfully old-fashioned, in the best way possible.

Police cutbacks will see wards share a sergeant
Drastic cuts to police numbers in East London will mean safer neighbourhood teams in some boroughs will have to share a sergeant.
London Assembly member for City and East John Biggs said this was a cut too far by London Mayor Boris Johnson.
He said: "This comes on top of the cuts the mayor has been making to the police for the last two years and there's a real risk that our streets will now start to feel less safe.
"Safer neighbourhood teams have been one of the Met's big success stories and the sergeants are an integral part of that. The mayor's making the wrong cuts and should think again."
Earlier this year the mayor announced the number of sergeants heading up safer neighbourhood teams would be almost halved, from 630 to 330 and those affected were revealed today.
Wards in Newham, Tower Hamlets and Barking and Dagenham will lose sergeants.
The number of police officers in London has been cut by nearly 2,000 in the last year with East London losing 112 officers.

The latest from Canadian Television (LINK ) on that story that a senior member of Sen. Barack Obama's campaign team had reached out to the Canadian Ambassador to the U.S. to tell him not to take seriously Obama's fiery anti-NAFTA rhetoric includes questions about a conversation on this subject between Obama senior economic adviser Austan Goolsbee and the Canadian Consulate General in Chicago.
"I don't think it's appropriate to go to Ohio and tell people one thing while your aide is calling the Canadian ambassador and telling him something else," Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., told us yesterday as we flew from Houston to Dallas. "I certainly don't think that's straight talk."
ABC News' Jennifer Parker spoke to Goolsbee, a University of Chicago economics professor, Thursday who would not confirm or deny that he had a conversation with Georges Rioux, the Canadian Consulate General in Chicago.
"They contacted me at one point to say 'hello' because their office is around the corner but it is not correct that I contacted them at all," Goolsbee told ABC News Thursday.
Rioux, in meetings this week in Ottawa, would also neither confirm nor deny any conversation took place. Both men did say that they know each other.
Both Obama and the Canadian Embassy have denied that the CTV story is true.

By skillful means one Maya has given birth to three disciples: Brahma, the creator; Vishnu, the sustainer; and Shiva, the destroyer.God directs them by His will and His order.
The descent is from one to three, and from three to many; but however far away you are from the one, you cannot step outside his edicts, his orders. No matter how much you disintegrate, how much divided you are in the many, he is present within you. If he is not, you cannot be. You may wander far, far away. You may go astray, but you cannot go so far that there is no point of return; there is no such point of no return.
Therefore no person is unredeemable. Even if a person has fallen into the lowermost depths of sin, he is not beyond cure. In terms of spiritual knowledge, there is no illness that is incurable, that cannot be remedied. All spiritual diseases can be cured. You cannot go so far that you cannot return.
Wherever you go, he is present. However far you go, it is he who takes you. Even in sin you need his help, because it is he who breathes within the sinner, it is he who beats within the sinner's heart. We can go far, very far. We can forget him, but there is no way of losing him.
So when you ask, "How are we to seek him?" your question is not correct, for you have never lost him. Even if you wish to, you cannot lose him for he is your very nature. Were he apart from you, you could have lost him, forgotten him somewhere, but you cannot do this even by mistake, because he is you.
Then what happens? You merely forget. There is also a way to forget oneself. Man can forget himself, forget his very nature. And yet his nature stands within him.
I have a friend. He is a lawyer, but a more forgetful person is hard to find. He forgets almost everything. On occasions he even forgets whom he was representing in court, who had engaged him to fight the case. But he is a very important lawyer. Once he had to go to another town to fight a case. When he reached there he found to his horror that he had forgotten the client's name. He sent a telegram to his secretary, "What is his name?" The secretary wired back the lawyer's name thinking he had forgotten that this time.
There is every possibility of forgetting one's own self also. The whole world is proof that one's own self can be forgotten. And what is the way to forget? The way to forget is the same as the way to remember.
How can forgetfulness be remedied? By meditation! When you become too much object-oriented, you forget yourself. For through concentration alone one remembers, and through concentration alone one forgets. Wherever you apply your attention, that is what comes to mind.

Imiphumela Ngele Development
The 18th annual Talent ID Festival was held from the 25th to 27th September 2013 in Pietermaritzburg and hosted at Woodburn Stadium. The festival has been re-named, the MARK GODEFROY/KZNRU TALENT ID FESTIVAL, after Mark Godefroy, a keen rugby enthusiast who bequeathed part of his estate to the development of the game in KZN. The entire KZN Development community is eternally grateful for this generous act and hence have decided to re-name this prestigious festival after him. As part of the legacy we hope to create for him, the funds have been placed in a trust, the proceeds of which will be used to place a talented player, chosen from this festival, into the Sharks Academy on a bursary.
In each of the five rugby sub-unions (Durban, Midlands, Zululand, Northern KZN and Southern KZN), 60 players ie 20 x U12, 20 x U15 and 20 x U17 boys, were selected to represent each region. A total of 300 players attended the festival, together with 45 coaches and managers. We also had four visiting teams, Alfred Nzo District U12 & U15 (Matatiele, Mt Frere Area) and Ithembelihle (New Brighton, Port Elizabeth) and the Zimbabwe Development Foundation (U15), joining us for the festival.
This festival is the culmination of the hard work put in over the course of the year and is used to identify the best available talent from the previously disadvantaged communities and to then take them through a process of preparation for Craven Week, Academy U18 Week and Grant Khomo trials next year. Glenwood Prep, Westville Senior Primary, Richardia, Glenwood High School, Westville High School, Northwood, George Campbell, Clifton and development provided us with selectors/scouts to select the provincial squads of 30 players in each age group. Some of the boys selected will undoubtedly be offered bursaries/scholarships to these schools. The success of this part of the development program is evident in the fact that 21 high school players (5 in the U18 Craven Week Team, which included Ntokozo Vidima (Glenwood) who was player of the tournament at last years' festival 3 in the U18 Academy week team, 4 in the U18 Academy Week Country Districts Team, 6 in the U18 Academy Week KZN XV Team and 3 in the U16 Grant Khomo Team) and 11 primary school players (4 in the U13 Craven week Team, 2 in the U13B Team and 4 in the U12 Team who played in last years' Talent ID Festival) that were/are part of the development process were selected for the various KZN Schools' teams this year.
The standout teams/players this year were : U12 - Best Forward - Siyanda Sithole (Durban) Best Back - Luyanda Mazeka (Midlands) Team of the Festival - Midlands U15 - Best Forward - Nthuthuko Mchunu (Midlands) Best Back - Andile Ncane (Southern KZN) Team of the Festival - Midlands U17 - Best Forward - Musa Mdakane (Northern KZN) Best Back - Cebo Nxumalo (Zululand) Team of the Festival - Zululand
The Provincial squads selected are :

The referees at the festival were selected and appointed by SARU and the KZN Referees Society.
A festival like this cannot take place without the support of sponsors. The main sponsors of this festival were : KZNRU, The KZN Department of Sports and Recreation, uMgungundlovu District Municipality, Clover, Spur, SA Rugby, Gem Sport, Discovery, Bluff Meat Supply, and Ron's Sports.
A special word of thanks as well to the Midlands Rugby Sub-Union for making their excellent facilities available to us.
The 19th version of this festival is due to hosted in the Northern KZN sub-union next year.
The KZNRU U15 IQHAWE team participated in the SA Rugby Legends/SARU IQHAWE U15 week in Cape Town. This team was selected from the KZNRU/SARU/Department of Sport and Recreation Hotspot Project and included players from some of the smaller Model C schools. Due to the late confirmation of the tournament going ahead, trials were held very late, resulting in little time available to adequately prepare the team. The team selected was: Lungelo Luthuli (Mandlakazulu), Gift Cele (Umlazi ComTech), Lungelo Xulu (Parkhill), Nhlalenhle Cele (Kenmont), Mpumulelo Vadima (Sithengile), Wesley Gumede (J.G. Zuma), Samkelo Madlala (Makhanda), Thabiso Kunene (Tholokuhle), Wayne Ngubane (George Campbell), Thobani Ngwenya (George Campbell), Anele Nxumalo (Vryheid Landbou), Kaela Kabwe (Old Mill), Devan Palmer (George Campbell), Lwazi Mabaso (Durban Academy), Mthokozisi Mtshali (Harvest), Zwelisha Mnguni (Mtubatuba), Sphelele Myeza (Sunnydale), Gcina Mngomezulu (Gwejobomvu), Njabulo Nkosi (Harvest), Siyabonga Magwaza (Mandlakazulu), Lucky Ndlovu (Mpophomeni), Daniel Ngonyama (Eshowe), Mthandeni Gumede (Ohlange), Mfanelo Ntobela (Makhanda) and Abongile Buthelezi (Vryheid Landbou). The team was coached by Trompie Nontshinga and Ntando Manyosha and managed by Phumezo Ndzekeni. Though, as stated previously, we had little time to prepare the team, they performed quite admirably. Their results were as follows : Lost 19 -10 to South Western Districts, lost 10 - 7 to Eastern Province and won 10 - 5 against Border. Two of the boys were selected for the IQHAWE U15 ALL STARS team. They are Nhlalenhle Cele and Wayne Ngubane.
Quentin Reynolds (Manager: Rugby Development)
Development in Historically Disadvantaged Communities The KZN Rugby Union has, over the past 13 years, been running a development program in all the previously disadvantaged communities throughout KZN. The areas that have been accessed include, amongst others, Umlazi, KwaMashu, Chatsworth, Phoenix, Greenwood Park, Wentworth, Sydenham, Gamalakhe, Kokstad, Umzimkulu, Edendale, Bruntville, Wembezi, Madadeni, Bergville, Mafusini, Ulundi, Ezikhaweni, KwaDlangezwa, Pongola etc. The KZN Rugby Union has very strong links with Government and has formed partnerships with local, district and provincial government departments over the past 8 years. There are now over 500 schools and 26 clubs in communities across KwaZulu Natal. Also over the past few years, relationships have been developed between the Sharks Academy, International Countries like England, Ireland, New Zealand, Australia and Wales in order to assist with further developing players and coaches for the Sharks under 19, 21 and Senior teams. Over the past 5 years, at least 70 Black players have been sent to the countries listed above for development purposes, and at least 1/3rd of players in the Sharks Academy are Black of which at least 30% are from historically disadvantaged communities. We have also established rugby houses for 14 Black players, who we want to fast track every year for the Sharks Senior squads. More information is available on the latter information on request. Some of the successes from the Sharks Rugby House are Cedric Mkhize, JP Pietersen, Dusty Noble, Sangoni Mxoli, Jody Jenneker, Nikolai Blignaut, etc. Over the past two years, it has become increasingly apparent that there is a need to begin working according to the regions and district Municipality boundaries. This would facilitate the creation of district and local municipality teams for the Kwanaloga Games and SA Games, and improve the level of talent identification throughout KZN. In order to achieve that, more staff would definitely be required to ensure that all rural and smaller municipalities are included. At present the KZN Rugby Union has one person in the Zululand region, one in the Ethekwini Region, one in the Port Shepstone Region, one in the Lammergeyer Region and one in the Pietermaritzburg Region. Talent ID Programmes Our premier talent identification tournament for under 12, 15 and 17 rugby players, has been held every year since 1997 in late August or early September. These are only players from historically disadvantaged schools and communities. In the past, the tournament was set between the 5 rugby sub-unions and consisted of 300 players and 45 managers and coaches, together with visiting teams like Alfred Nzo (Transkei) and iTembelihle (Eastern Cape). There are 11 districts in KZN in total. Areas that we work with in the districts are for example, Umlazi, Chatsworth, KwaMashu and Wentworth etc (Ethekwini District), Edendale, Imbali, Woodlands, Bruntville, Richmond and Northdale etc (Umgungungdlovu District), Gamalakhe, Munster, Harding, Nqabeni etc (Ugu District), Ezikhaweni, Wembezi, Nquthu, Ulundi, Kwadlangezwa, Madadeni, Osizweni, Ezakheni etc. 60 Players from each sub-union then attend the final trials to select the provincial squads of 30 in each age group. These players are then coached and worked with as academy squads to prepare them for Craven Week and Grant Khomo Week trials the following year. After the top players are selected, the Under 15 and Under 17 players are put through camps where they learn about proper diets, have lectures on relevant topics and also attend gym sessions, where they learn how to train properly. There are usually about six to eight camps in the next six to nine months after the Talent ID Tournament to prepare the boys for other tournaments such as the Grey College Festival in Bloemfontein. Bursaries for top players The third part of this tournament is with the placement of our top Black players in ex-Model C and Private schools. These are our elite players coming out of the disadvantaged communities. The players need additional programs and projects, to lift their playing skill levels to that of their counterparts in the advantaged areas, so placing them there assists us.

2014 was a watershed year for this big, ball-playing loose-forward. Named Sharks Captain for the Currie Cup campaign, he delivered consistent, outstanding performances throughout the tournament and grew decidedly as a player of worth whose contribution as player and leader was matched by his work ethic and composure.

Still from "Untitled" glitter film
Artist Statement:
I make work about equality because I feel that this is my duty as a contemporary artist and engaged citizen. Currently, I am exploring marginalized groups. I am particularly interested in challenging American society's perception of Judaism and womanhood. I also explore collaboration and growth. It is important for me to consider the tension and possible space for intellectual development which happens among people as they attempt to communicate. I routinely think about my position, with respect to balance and control, as well as society's relationship to these ideas. I want my art to contribute to learning and conversation, which hopefully spawns from my viewer's experience. My work often deals with themes of excess, conformity, and assimilation. Material is usually the byproduct of an idea. I enjoy working with a range of mixed media and genres to build a vessel for my thoughts. Combining the grotesque with the seductive.
My work addresses criticality, equality, and process. Considering my identity as it relates to larger cultural implications is an important perpetual theme that I address. Learning is the most important goal of my art. Currently I am part of a group exhibition at the Kugel collaborative. I have exhibited many places in Philadelphia among which include, The Water Gallery, University of the Arts, and the Galleries at Moore. I have also sown at the Ice Cube Gallery in Denver. I recently received the Sarah Peter fellowship from MCAD and have been published with Cleaver Magazine and The Philadelphia artblog. I am living and working in Philadelphia. I will graduate with a BFA in Fine Arts, with a Minor in Curatorial Studies in 2014.

Please take this quick survey so we can better understand how Protected Planet is used.
XHey friend, could you provide us a wikipedia URL with a good description of this protected area?
Please, be sure that you are suggesting an english language wikipedia URL (http://en.wiki....)
mark it as wrongTransferring data
Jasper National Park is the largest national park in the Canadian Rockies, spanning 10,878 km2 (4,200 sq mi). It is located in the province of Alberta, north of Banff National Park and west of the City of Edmonton. The park includes the glaciers of the Columbia Icefield, hot springs, lakes, waterfalls and mountains. Wildlife in the park includes elk, caribou, moose, mule deer, white-tailed deer, mountain goats, bighorn sheep, grizzly bears, black bears, coyotes, beavers, Rocky Mountain pikas, hoary marmots, grey wolves, mountain lions, and wolverines.
Jasper was named after Jasper Hawes, who operated a trading post in the region for the North West Company. Before this it was referred to as Fitzhugh. The park was established on September 14, 1907 as Jasper Forest Park, and was granted national park status in 1930, with the passing of the National Parks Act.
In 2012, Jasper National Park had 1,991,482 visitors.
This park was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1984, together with the other national and provincial parks that form the Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks, for the mountain landscapes containing mountain peaks, glaciers, lakes, waterfalls, canyons, and limestone caves as well as fossils found here.
Major river systems originating in the park include the Athabasca and Smoky rivers (part of the Arctic Ocean basin).
Some of the park's scenic attractions include Mount Edith Cavell, Pyramid Lake with Pyramid Mountain, Maligne Lake, Medicine Lake, and the Tonquin Valley. Other attractions are the Marmot Basin ski area; the Snocoach tours of the Athabasca Glacier, an outlet glacier of the Columbia Icefield; Athabasca Falls; the Jasper Skytram, and numerous other outdoor related recreational activities (such as hiking, fishing, wildlife viewing, rafting, kayaking and camping). The Miette Hot Springs are located close to the northeast entrance. The Miette Hot Springs are created by an extremely hot spring cooled by the mountain to temperatures suitable for humans.
The Icefields Parkway is a highway 230 km (140 mi) in length from Lake Louise, Alberta in Banff National Park, to Jasper, Alberta. The highway parallels the continental divide, providing motor and cycle access to the mountains. The Athabasca and Sunwapta Falls are both accessible by the road.
Jasper National Park is featured in the 2010 3D animated comedy-drama film Alpha and Omega as the location the two wolf protagonists are taken from and struggle to return to.

I'm not eating any more tuna. That's right. No more blathering in this column about that unctuous piece of bluefin toro I had at Salvatore's Sushi Shack; no more blissed-out descriptions of the perfectly seared slab of big-eye at Bistro du Maison; nix the "ahi tower" or the "tuna tartare"; not another word about the canned albacore-melt at Hero's Diner.
Know what else I'm not eating? Atlantic cod or halibut. Chilean sea bass. Florida grouper. Monkfish. Orange roughy. Atlantic sole. Skate wing. Farmed salmon. Farmed shrimp that comes from anywhere in Asia.
But here's what I am eating, with gusto: a whole raw Spanish mackerel (aji), head and tail intact, the ice-cold alabaster flesh filleted into sashimi. I'm at the newish, modish Blue Fish in Delray Beach, and this lovely little piscine gamine is slender and shiny and — even dead and eviscerated — so graceful-looking that you could imagine it leaping into a slash of sunlight from some pristine sea. It has most of the qualities I'll be demanding of my seafood in months to come. Aji, otherwise known as Spanish mackerel, is neither endangered nor overfished. It isn't harvested by dredging and destroying the fragile ocean floor. It gets bonus points if it comes from the Atlantic Ocean, where it's less likely to be full of mercury than if it were born and raised in the Gulf of Mexico. Most felicitously, its flesh is full of oil, loaded with omega-3s, which I'm told prevent everything from depression to heart disease. Logging in to montereybayaquarium.org's handy Seafood Watch list, I learn that mackerel "mature fairly quickly and spawn prolifically, making them resilient to fishing pressure." Those are magic words.
110 E. Atlantic Ave.
Delray Beach, FL 33444
Category: Restaurant > Asian Fusion
Region: Delray Beach
I'll feel perfectly comfortable, even smug, about eating lots of seafood listed on the menu at the Blue Fish. Apart from the aji, there're sea eel and clam, uni and black cod, Japanese snapper, farmed kampachi from Hawaii, snow crab, crawfish, and scallops.
True, the Blue Fish serves copious quantities of tuna, farmed salmon, King crab, Chilean sea bass, imported farmed shrimp, and other seafood that's either critically endangered or just plain gross. But the Blue Fish isn't exactly alone here. Every sushi restaurant in the country dishes up this stuff; Americans have taken to eating it in quantities that make the Japanese look like parsimonious and ethical epicures. Further, as the Bible admonishes us: Let not him that eats despise him that eats not; and let not him which eats not judge him that eats: for God has received him (Romans 14:3), a precept that, if followed scrupulously, would lay to rest a lot of the animosity between carnivores and vegans.
I personally have no intention of following the Good Book's advice when it comes to food – I'd be obliged to give up lobster thermador and pork bellies, for God's sake — but this is a restaurant review, so let's turn our attention to the actual restaurant for a minute. The Blue Fish comes to us as the first outlier of a small chain of Texas sushi restaurants founded in Dallas in 1995. Dallas? Those landlocked Texans eat raw fish? Blue Fish earned some attention for its L.A.-stylin' factor and what originally looked like a good selection of sakes, all of which seemed a lot hipper 13 years ago. And the atmosphere at the Blue Fish is still working on the principle that we prefer to pick at our ahi towers while listening to trance music and that hostesses are best when they resemble elongated versions of Tyra Banks.
Blue Fish Delray is the company's first venture beyond the Lone Star state, and you have to applaud the iron-clad cojones in the location they've chosen. This jinxed, curséd spot at 110 E. Atlantic Ave. has sent one restaurant after another spiraling down the tubes — first Sopra, then Bice — places that ought to have done well. It's a pretty space with a cool little staircase that arcs over a pool outside, and a humongous indoor cavern broken into manageable parts: a bar, a sushi bar, a smaller room with a wall of windows, a larger room fit for ogling your fellows. Past failures here evidently had a lot more to do with mismanagement than with the acoustics.
Disappointed posters on chowhound's Florida board wrote scathingly of the Blue Fish when it first opened. Word about the sushi: "Inedible." I didn't find this to be the case during two visits, but I do think you need to choose your fish wisely if you go. The salmon was nearly inedible — mushy and greasy and of very poor quality. But a black cod special grilled with miso was delicious, with a sweetish, carmelized crust set against an interior that melted in our mouths (and yes, black cod is a "good" fish). We had a splendid selection of sushi, exactingly chosen from a big menu of raw fish, all of it cold, bursting with flavor. Sea eel ($5 for two), an animal not always found at your local sushi dive (the sustainably farmed saltwater eel is called anago; the more common freshwater eel, unagi), was served just slightly cooked after blanching and lightly brushed with sweetened soy. We ordered luscious uni (a pair for $9.95, the pudding-like, musky gonads of sea urchin) topped with a couple of raw quail eggs ($1 each); creamy, glistening slices of kampachi over vinegared rice ($3.75 apiece); toothsome octopus ($2.25) sliced thin and blushing at the margins like wild roses; and silvery pink sea bream (tai sushi, $3.75). On both our visits, a slightly bemused manager stopped by our table and expressed surprise over our unconventional order.

Don't Watch Cooking Shows
It is about 6:30 PM, and sunset is still an hour and a half away. You have read the Qur'an for the day, you have done everything you can think of to try to pass the time. So, you think to yourself, why not watch some TV? Inevitably, you come across a cooking show...and you don't change the channel. You continue to watch the savory sizzling of beef, or chicken, or fish (no pork) in the frying pan, the delectable sauce boiling ever so serenely in the saucepan, the tantalizingly thick and creamy icing mixing ever so lusciously in the electronic mixer, which turns ever so beautifully on the screen...
Do not torture yourself like this...change the channel.

5.17.13 (via Race Review Online) – To really make your mark on history in the Izod IndyCar Series or racing in general, an Indianapolis 500 victory on a drivers resume will forever make him a champion and a legend.
Not just anyone can win at the famed 2.5-mile oval. It takes a great amount of skill as drivers are pulling 3-4 g-forces in each of the four corners 200 times on race day. Most people are picking drivers like Helio Castroneves, Dario Franchitti and Scott Dixon as favorites to win this year's 97th Running of the 500.
I say watch out for E.J. Viso.
Viso is off to the best start of his career and coming to Indianapolis with a lot of momentum. The 28-year old is in his first season with Andretti Autosport and has finishes of seventh, 12th, 22nd and sixth to start the season off. He earned his first career front row start in the last race at Brazil and has shown flashes of brilliance.

One dark AU made me think of another... You certainly have an apt hand for the short and horrific! *g*
I think the most chilling aspect of all is the deliberately casual tone that pervades the entire piece, showing how thoroughly the Ring has corrupted. Legolas and Frodo's fates chilled me the most, and what an excellent ending.

Oooh - I rediscovered this while browsing some dark AUs, and I don't think I've commented on it to you before - chills, chills. It could all happen so easily.
"As a reward, she has not clouded his mind; he alone has been allowed to keep his memories of the time before." Some reward.
And as a Legolas adorer I am perversely pleased that he could not be bought off or controlled and had to die...
Thanks again for giving us the shivers!

Healthcare summit reaction: Useful, but not a game-changer
After Thursday's healthcare summit, reaction from both sides is positive, but Democrats still likely to proceed without Republican support.
J. Scott Applewhite/AP
Prospects for healthcare reform legislation appear little changed following President Obama's marathon White House forum on the subject Thursday.
Republicans say they remain opposed to Obama's proposed healthcare overhaul, while Democrats vow that they will rally their party to push it through Congress – if necessary, via special budget rules that allow them to proceed with a simple majority of 51 votes.
Yet all involved said the seven-hour chat fest, held at Blair House, across Pennsylvania Avenue from the White House proper, was worth doing. The tone was at times combative, but the talk was surprisingly substantive and laid out the philosophical differences between the parties on this important issue like little else has in recent months. (For more Monitor coverage of the healthcare summit, see here.)
"I think it was good to have that conversation. I think it was good for the American people," said Sen. John McCain (R) of Arizona on Friday in an appearance on ABC's "Good Morning America".
Senator McCain, the GOP's presidential candidate in 2008, said that Republicans would be willing to work with Obama on such measures as ensuring insurance coverage for those with preexisting health conditions.

Our work is developed following the idea that every single project is part of a story: urban planning, university researches, individual architectures, websites, videos, these are all different tools to design the future territory from different points of view (like parts of single or multiple stories). In this dimension projects tend to be immediate but composite, comprehensible but changeable, sincere but tendentious.
Richard Saul Wurman writes: "...Design is about how to. But first you have to understand the what. Only one what, but many how's..." (Information Anxiety, QUE 2000)
The "how" is the result of tests, discussions, intuitions, researches (putting together ideas or separating those carefully). The work carried out inside the group and, often, with more groups of designers and different specialists, focuses also on the "what", trying to reformulate the questions posed by competitions and customers with the aim of extending the point of view and helping us elaborating answers. Two-dimensional, three-dimensional drawings and videos (anticipated by a storyboard that organizes ideas like a plan) are used at the same time as investigation and design tools.

What is the significance of the Equal Rights Amendment (1972)?
1 Answer | Add Yours
The Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) was significant because it represented a major step (albeit a failed step) in the move towards women's rights. It is also important because it shows how much conflict there was in the 1970s over social issues.
The ERA was proposed as a way to give women equal legal status to men. This was a major goal of the women's rights movement. However, the furor over the ERA and its eventual defeat showed that there was still a great deal of resistance to change. There were enough people who strongly supported the traditional, male-dominated society to defeat the ERA.
The ERA, then, is a symbol of the cultural conflicts of the 1970s.

You Have No Right to Remain Silent!
For someone who used to make her living writing sitcoms, I have forgotten to laugh. It didn't happen overnight. I went from the writing room with adults to Romper Room with my children. (Honestly, my kids have always chuckled at my deliveries way more than overtired writers.) Now that the kids are in school, I have a lot of quiet time. While a few years back I would have killed Elmo himself to have an uninterrupted pass through Target without two toddlers hanging off my knee caps or sucking the shopping cart handle bar, my soul subconsciously missed being needed.
It took me a few months to realize that not only that I was not smiling as much as I used to, but exactly how it happened. All I know is that Rex suddenly seemed less appealing. "He's so boring!" I'd think as he came home from work, doing the same thing he's always done for eight years. (Throw off his work clothes, stick on his pjs, and settle in for good dinner and TV.) What I used to find relaxing at the end of the day became mind numbingingly irritating.
"For Godsake, Rex, can't we do something different for a change?"
Rex: "What do you want to do?"
Me: "I don't know... go for a drive... rearrange the toilet paper... take a walk... anything!"
Rex would sometimes grudgingly agree, but last minute jaunts are not his thing. Often he'd say no. And that, frankly, irritated the hell out of me. Not one for co-dependence, I'd end up walking alone, not only through my physical neighborhood, but down the mental path of "Other people's husbands seem so much more fun." I'd one by one go down the list. "This one is flexible about picking up the kids from school last minute." "This one will plan a trip last minute for their anniversary." "That one picks out the sweetest cards for Lyn." At the end of my walk I'd be more steamed than when I'd started.
Truth be told? Rex isn't that much different than when I first married him. In fact, it was his steady eddy nature that made me fall in love with him in the first place. After glorious hours of stimulation on the set, I'd crash in bed with my quiet lover who wanted nothing more from me than to be with me, in me. The fact that he didn't talk as much was a bonus. All I ever did was talk! Now that I have no one to talk to all day, his silent ways have become my main conflict.
This leaves me with three options.
1. Ditch him for someone more chatty. Perhaps a DJ, a sports announcer or a reader for the blind!
2. Stew in my own juices until I'm more tender than a Thanksgiving turkey.
3. Change certain aspects of my own existence so that, once again, I get that perfect formula back.
See my next blog to see which number I choose.

@robert13 - A Masters degree would be preferable, but I believe there are a few programs that only require a BS and maybe a couple years of relevant experience. The important thing to keep in mind however is these jobs are hotly contested so you'd really have to be top of the class to stand a chance.
The types of jobs you'd be involved with would be centered around surveying, evaluation, monitoring and implementation. You can get consulting positions without a Masters and if it turns into a long-term assignment they might consider helping you pay for grad school.
