Kerry making real progress in Mideast
WASHINGTON — It was a tall order, but U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry's efforts seem to be paying off: We now appear to be on the cusp of renewed Israeli-Palestinian negotiations. The formula for achieving this is still largely shrouded in secrecy, but whatever emerges is likely to be, at least at first, essentially "negotiations about having negotiations." The prospects for a major breakthrough in the immediate term seem remote. Yet this achievement, in and of itself, should not be underestimated.
Kerry has been commendably energetic in his efforts to restart talks. And it's clearly paying off: The secretary of state seems to have received pledges from both sides not to take steps that could sabotage a revived peace process. He secured a commitment from the Palestinians not to pursue any further initiatives to join additional multilateral institutions, particularly the International Criminal Court, while Israel also appears to have given some private assurances that it will postpone scheduled settlement construction in highly strategic areas of the West Bank. Finally, the Arab League committee dealing with the issue clarified that the Arab Peace Initiative doesn't rule out land swaps, and therefore is not the set-in-stone dictate many Israelis perceived it to be.
Kerry has been playing his cards very close to his chest — few in the administration or elsewhere in Washington are privy to the exact details of what he has put on the table. The Arab League delegation that met with him on Wednesday for a briefing on his proposals, though, may be better informed than most. And so far, the diplomats sound optimistic: They emerged from the talks declaring that Kerry's suggestions "lay the proper foundation to start the negotiations." The Arab League imprimatur is crucial for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, as it provides him political cover in domestic politics. But it is certain that the Arab League would not have declared its enthusiasm if Abbas had not strongly signalled he wanted them to do so.
Significantly, the Arab League statement specified "new and important political, economic and security elements" to Kerry's proposals. Since March, Kerry has been discussing a possible $4 billion investment package to enhance the Palestinian economy. There are clearly additional elements of the proposal hinted at in the Arab League statement that have not yet been made public.
Particularly when there is little optimism about immediate breakthroughs, the name of the game for both Israel and the Palestinians — especially regarding relations with the United States — is not to be seen as "the guys saying no." The last time the Obama administration made a major push for Israeli-Palestinian talks, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu managed to use both American and Palestinian miscalculations about the settlement issue to ensure that the Palestinians would be seen as the primary uncooperative party. That doesn't mean Israel didn't receive its share of the blame as well: It was seen as playing a cynical game with settlements. But neither Obama nor Abbas will be eager to see a repeat of that previous round of diplomacy.
There are still political obstacles in the way of revived peace talks. Some Fatah leaders are resisting the prospect of new talks, apparently insisting Israel agree that they be based on the 1967 borders with land swaps, and accept a settlement freeze. Netanyahu's office, meanwhile, is denying press reports that the prime minister has agreed to the 1967 borders as a baseline for negotiations.
But in spite of these domestic political hurdles, each side's desire not to be seen as the obstructionist party will likely mean that both will soon enough agree to begin talking again. Both Abbas and Netanyahu have faced domestic opposition to resuming talks in the past and overcame it. These relatively uncontested leaders will almost certainly find a way to do so again, despite the grumbling among their colleagues.
Along with the carrots that Israel will certainly receive from the United States for entering negotiations, it must also deal with European sticks if it is unwilling to seriously discuss ending the occupation. The European Union just unexpectedly issued new guidelines that will prohibit the organization from funding or cooperating with Israeli institutions operating in the occupied territories, including East Jerusalem, with a few exceptions. The United States declined to criticize the EU measure.
Israel is therefore on notice that much of its traditional Western support base is simply losing patience with the ongoing occupation. The EU measure would not have been taken if there were not clearly a growing sense that Israel is growing ever less willing to fully end the occupation. And it strongly suggests Israel can look forward to even further isolation if it persists with its current obstructionist policies.
For the Palestinians, increased American investment is welcome — but getting their own political house in order is urgently required. Continuing to build on the momentum of former prime minister Salam Fayyad's groundbreaking institution building, governance reform and anti-corruption policies is essential. Such efforts will guarantee that a Palestinian state will be viable and a deal will be durable, particularly in the context of the aspirations expressed in the "Arab Spring" uprisings across the Middle East. They would also provide a vital additional source of momentum, or at least stability, should talks stall or fail. And such policies are, in and of themselves, essential for Palestinians to continue to develop their own society.
The United States must take this Palestinian domestic reform project seriously. It's essential that any major investment package in Palestine be conducted with appropriate levels of transparency and accountability. If not, it could feed into the old narrative of Palestinian corruption. Major investment projects from the 1990s, which did not have sufficient transparency and accountability, provide an instructive example of what should be avoided.
Moreover, as the United States strives to bring Israeli and Palestinian leaders together at the negotiating table, it should engage Palestinian civil society. Popular buy-in is necessary for any major initiative, and it is essential that a diverse, dynamic and vibrant group of Palestinian actors have a stake in the process. It's not enough to simply talk with the established elites: Palestinians have lost faith in most of their existing political institutions, so engaging a diverse set of voices is necessary to build popular support for the new peace initiative.
There is every reason to be pleased that talks are likely to resume, but also to be cautious about the likelihood for any immediate progress on final status issues. It is therefore essential that a set of parallel, bottom-up tracks be developed that support diplomatic efforts and can help mitigate any potential frustrations.
Israeli-Palestinian diplomacy is a high-wire act of the first order. It is wise, and indeed essential, to undertake it with the appropriate safety net in place below.

The New Dawn Innovation Fund is excited to announce the launch of its 2015 campaign.
The New Dawn Innovation Fund provides investors with the opportunity to support local, innovative, growth-oriented companies while earning competitive dividends.
The New Dawn CEDIF family of companies (New Dawn Innovation Fund, New Dawn Community Investment and New Dawn Holdings) have been participating in the CEDIF program since 2004.
Over ten years, New Dawn CEDIFS have raised $9.4 million for direct investment in Cape Breton. The funds have been invested in companies like Protocase, Advanced Glazings, 45 Drives, Halifax Biomedical, Media Spark, Marcato Digital and Nova Stream.
What is a CEDIF?
Each year Nova Scotians invest more than $600 million in RRSPs. Less than 2% of this is reinvested in Nova Scotia. With the New Dawn Innovation Fund, your investment dollars stay in Cape Breton where they can be put to work in your community and you earn a 35% non-refundable provincial income tax credit, in addition to annual dividends.
By investing in a locally-owned business with a strong and consistent growth trajectory, your investment enables a cutting edge export-oriented business to access the capital it needs to expand its facilities and operations and to continue to meet the growing demand for its products.
The New Dawn Innovation Fund allows both investors and businesses to further the vision of creating a self-reliant people in a vibrant community.
Benefits of Investing
- RRSP eligible
- No Annual Management Fee
- 3% Annual Dividends (*)
- 35% Provincial Non-Refundable Income Tax Credit
- 100% of your money in invested in Cape Breton
How it Works
A $1000 investment would qualify for a non-refundable provincial income tax credit of $350 on your 2014 tax return.
Alternatively, an investor may carry this non-refundable income tax credit forward for 7 years or back for 3 years.
The minimum investment is $1000 and the maximum investment is $15,000 per year, per shareholder.
The investment is for a 5 year period. Your investment may be rolled over after 5 years for an additional 20% equity tax credit (if the CEDIF meets certain conditions). Your investment may be rolled over once more at the 10 year mark (if the CEDIF meets certain conditions) for another 10% equity tax credit. That's a 65% equity tax credit (or $650 on your original $1000 investment) over 15 years on all investments.
Existing RRSPs with other financial institutions can be transferred, without penalty into CEDIF self-directed RRSPs. In transferring existing RRSPs into self-directed CEDIF RRSPs, you qualify for the 35% non-refundable tax credit on the full transfer amount.
Selecting New Dawn Investments
All potential New Dawn Innovation Fund investments are reviewed and approved by the Investment Committee of the New Dawn Innovation Fund board.
Potential investment recipients must be active for-profit businesses based in Cape Breton and listed with the Nova Scotia Registry of Joint Stock Companies.
Prospective investees must meet all lending criteria, including the provision of three years of financial statements and Canada Revenue Agency Tax Returns. They must be commercially viable, have a sound business plan reflecting local market conditions, good management, and potential for growth and profitability.
Following approval of a five-year investment, New Dawn CEDIF businesses must submit annual financial statements for board assessment and pay interest monthly.
All investees must allow the New Dawn Innovation Fund to appoint, with full Board rights and responsibilities, a representative of the Innovation Fund to their Board of Directors.
How to Invest
The New Dawn Innovation Fund is now open and accepting investments. The New Dawn Innovation Fund will accept investments until March 2, 2015. For more information or to invest, contact Leonard Murray at email@example.com or 902-539-9560 Ext. 0.
New Dawn Innovation Fund Vision
Diverse, healthy, resilient and self-reliant Cape Breton businesses and economies enabled and enhanced by access to locally-generated and locally-managed capital.
New Dawn Innovation Fund Objectives
- Provide access to local investment capital for businesses and entrepreneurs in Cape Breton.
- Provide local investors with opportunities to earn competitive dividends while investing in their community.
- Generate, over time, a significant bank of locally managed Cape Breton capital that enables the significant growth of local businesses and economies.
THIS CEDIF OFFERING MAY BE A HIGH RISK INVESTMENT. THIS OFFERING IS MADE THROUGH AN OFFERING DOCUMENT, WHICH CAN BE OBTAINED FROM AN AUTHORIZED SALES AGENT (Leonard Murray, New Dawn Innovation Fund Limited, PO Box 1055, Sydney, Nova Scotia, Phone (902) 539-9560 Ext. 0). THIS OFFERING CONSTITUTES AN EXEMPT OFFERING OF THESE SECURITIES ONLY IN NOVA SCOTIA BY AUTHORIZED SALES AGENTS. INVESTORS SHOULD READ THE OFFERING DOCUMENT BEFORE MAKING AN INVESTMENT DECISION.

New workshop planned on metals ordinance
Date: October 31, 2011
by: Rachel Brown Hackney | Managing Editor
Sarasota County and the Sarasota County Sheriff's Office will hold a workshop at 5 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 1, to discuss proposed changes to a county ordinance regulating the purchase of secondhand goods, precious metals and scrap metal.
The workshop will be held in the Green Room at the Sarasota County Twin Lakes Complex, 6700 Clark Road, Sarasota.
The two proposed ordinances are available online at http://bit.ly/pcXkiS. The public also may submit comments, questions and suggestions online at email@example.com until 5 p.m. Tuesday, Nov 8.
This workshop follows County Commission discussion Oct. 12 about the proposed ordinance changes. The commissioners expressed concern that the draft presented at that time did not contain sufficient exemptions and that, as a result, flea markets, church secondhand sales and even Habit for Humanity's ReStore business would be adversely affected. As a result, county staff has separated the original draft ordinance into two ordinances. One ordinance covers secondhand dealers while the other covers metal recyclers.
The ordinances are scheduled for a Dec. 13 public hearing before the County Commission.
Sheriff's Office officials, working with the county's Criminal Justice Commission, have proposed the revised ordinances as a means of handling the growing problem with the theft and sale of stolen goods such as ferrous, non- ferrous and precious metals (gold, silver and copper). Increasing demand for metals of all types and rising metal prices also have significantly contributed to increased metal thefts.
Metal theft has cost Sarasota County residents and businesses more than $8 million over the past several years, according to Sheriff's Office statistics. Metal theft also creates an environmental hazard, as air-conditioning and appliance refrigerants are released into the atmosphere after the theft of metals from those units.

Neiman Marcus Gets Your Used Castoffs Picked Up From Home
April 25 (Bloomberg) -- Many Americans who want to get rid of old clothes drive to places like Goodwill stores, dump bursting shopping bags and leave with a blank receipt to claim a tax deduction.
From now on, members of luxury chain Neiman Marcus Group Ltd.'s InCircle loyalty program won't need to leave the house to donate their used Gucci handbag or Valentino shoes.
In partnership with Fashion Project, an upscale online clothing donation service, Neiman's members will be able to have those gently used items picked up from their doorstep. Once donations are processed, they get receipts by e-mail declaring the value of the donated items and receive sweeteners: gift cards they can use toward purchases at Neiman Marcus and its Bergdorf Goodman stores.
"Partnering with Fashion Project to offer the White Glove donation service presents our InCircle customers with an unprecedented opportunity to give back," Maggie Lucas, a director of InCircle, credit and gift card marketing for Neiman Marcus, said in a statement yesterday.
To qualify for a pickup by one of Fashion Project's White Glove donation stylists, InCircle members must have at least 10 items and be located within a 30-mile radius of a Neiman Marcus or Bergdorf Goodman store. For every 10 items donated, InCircle members will earn $100 gift cards, up to a value of $1,000.
Boston-based Fashion Project, founded in 2012, sells the clothes on its website and gives the majority of the proceeds to a charity of the donor's choice.
Neiman Marcus joins fellow retailer Nordstrom Inc. in offering the service, the difference being that Nordstrom's customers must mail in their donations, for which they get $40 gift cards for five items.

Published May 24, 1995
Rawlings Sporting Goods Co. stock fell to a record low after the company announced its revenue and profit would be lower this year because of the baseball strike. Shares fell $1.50 to $10.12, a drop of 12.9%. Rawlings blamed weak baseball-equipment sales at retail outlets. That "revised forecast surprised analysts, who thought the company might avoid a ripple effect" from the strike. Jack Russo, who follows Rawlings for A.G. Edwards & Sons in St. Louis: "I don't know if it's because of the strike or just kids playing other sports. ... I think all of us were crossing our fingers." A.G. Edwards, which had earlier considered Rawlings stock a "buy," has changed its position to give the company's stock a neutral "hold." Rawlings has lowered its revenue projection for the fiscal year by 3.13% to $145M (Christopher Carey, ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH, 5/24). MERCHANDISE SALES SLOW ALL AROUND: Although the sale of licensed baseball merchandise is down due to the strike, retailers and analysts hope revenue will pick up as the season progresses. According to Nancy McCusker, Sports Services Dir of Merchandising, the "good news for the clubs and merchants is that fans who show up at the games are buying food, caps, shirts and other goods at about the same rate per person ... as they did this time last year." Industry watchers all note that exciting pennant races would help the $2.5B business return to past performance. John Horan, publisher of SPORTING GOODS INTELLIGENCE, said there are "lots of problems," but by the playoffs, "sales will back to normal" (Robyn Meredith, USA TODAY, 5/24).

Upcoming events
Upcoming events by partner institutions
The FCA, CEOs and leaders of major banks, insurers and asset management firms will meet at the Forum to discuss how to drive culture change in financial services to promote good conduct. The target audience is first line conduct risk specialists and 2nd line compliance teams on developing policy and working with the business to help implement the framework.
General inquires can be addressed via email to: krina.amin[at]ethicalcorp[dot]com. Further details on the event.
Past events
The Thai Institute of Directors (IOD) will hold their 5th National Conference on Collective Action against Corruption on 16 October 2014 in Bangkok, Thailand, with Gemma Aiolfi, Head of Compliance, Corporate Governance and Collective Action, taking part in a panel discussion entitled "Public-Private Collaboration: the New Ideas and Experiences."
This event featured successful examples of Collective Action, lessons learned, practical advice, and academic contributions as well as peer discussion, and brought together over 100 representatives from business, government, academia, and civil society.
This workshop was conceived as a result of the increasing use of virtual currency in everyday life. In investigations undertaken by ICAR, it became clear that few jurisdictions had experience or legislation in overcoming the obstacles that could arise in the investigation, prosecution and asset recovery processes.
Dr Vinay Bhargava, Chief Technical Advisor, Partnership for Transparency Fund
The conference (conducted in German, on "Transnationale Korruptionsbekämpfung – bricht das Strafrecht mit seinen Prinzipien?") brought together public and private sector representatives as well as academics to discuss and determine the limits of the State, in particular of criminal law, in combatting corruption, - an agenda which is increasingly driven and defined by the private sector, where sound compliance has a direct impact on the risk of corporate criminal liability.

Disney's Lilo & Stitch, everything is blown up, more fun, also more real
Lilo & Stitch is an odd movie to come from Disney for a number of reasons: a rare work based on an original story, set in a realistic version of the "island paradise" of Hawaii, focusing on strong female characters who have a realistic/varied bodyshapes. For more insight into the making of the "affordable" Disney film, here's Lilo & Stitch revisited, Part I, interviewing the creators Chris Sanders and Dean DeBlois, and Part II, featuring master animator Andreas Deja. For a taste of the animation, here are four teaser clips of Stitch invading other Disney films, the official full version of the Lion King interrupted trailer, and making of Lilo & Stitch short docu-clip.
Grumpy Disney: illustrations of Grumpy Cats as Disney Princesses
Eric Proctor, aka Tsaoshin, draws cute monsters, dragons, Disney characters and Grumpy Cats. The last two merge in a short series of images he calls Grumpy Disney, with the various Disney characters (mostly princesses) replaced with Grumpy Cats doing suitably Grumpy Cat things.

You can't see Buzz Lightyear while backpacking
You don't want your privacy: Disney and the meat space data race
The bands are even uniquely colored and monogrammed with your family members' names so that they won't get switched up. Why? Because they don't want their database to get confused and think that you, a 45-year-old man, rode the teacups instead of your little son Timmy. This is one of the first examples I've seen of physical design (e.g., monogramming and coloring) for the sake of digital data purity.
If ever there was a testimony to the importance big data has achieved in business it's this: We will now shape our physical world to create better streams of digital information.
Disney to destroy EU* (*Expanded Universe)
While JJ Abrams finishes off the script for Star Wars VII, Disney and the Lucasfilm Story Group are busily deciding what is canon and what isn't.

Kay Nielsen's Little Mermaid
Kay Nielsen, a Danish illustrator who was popular in the early 20th century, the "golden age of illustration", contributed artwork for many Disney films, including concept paintings for a proposed adaptation of Hans Christian Anderson's The Little Mermaid. The adaptation was to be part of a package film containing various segments based on Anderson's fairy tales. The film, however, was not made within Nielsen's lifetime and his work went unused until production started on the 1989 film. [more inside]

Snow White in Auschwitz
"Knowing of Dina's artistic ability, Freddy asked her to paint a mural on the wall of the barracks to cheer up the children. She agreed, although she expected she would be executed if the Germans caught her. This was some time if February 1944. Using paints that were smuggled from various sources, Dina set to work painting a scene of Snow White looking out over the Swiss countryside. Dina knew that some of the children had seen the movie and would recognize the character. She had seen the movie 'seven times in a row' back in Czechoslovakia."

Mickey Mouse and friends, brought back to the 1930s era sense of humor
Mickey Mouse in Ghoul Friend is a new Disney short, featuring the reanimated corpse of Goofy. With this information, you might get the idea that this is not what you might expect from modern Disney cartoons, and you'd be right. It's one of 19 new shorts that are part of the new Mickey Mouse series of shorts that are inspired by the 1930s era Disney shorts. If you'd like to see more, 11 of the shorts are currently available to view on YouTube (in a playlist with two bonus behind the scenes clips), from the DisneyShorts YouTube acccount. [more inside]

"What is feasible?" can be finally answered only by future historians
"The Earth is the only world known so far to harbor life. There is nowhere else, at least in the near future, to which our species could migrate. Visit, yes. Settle, not yet." Before we get into terraforming, what about the space between worlds? NASA has a website dedicated to discussions of space settlements (previously), many going back to the 1970s, as seen in the CoEvolution Book on space settlement and the NASA Ames/Stanford 1975 Summer Study. There is also concept art from the 1970s by Don Davis (prev: 1, 2, 3) and Rick Guidice. Escaping from that orbit, there's also a toroidal space colony as imagined in the 1982 book Walt Disney's EPCOT, and more recently, a ton of neat imagery on Bryan Versteeg's Spacehabs website.

Tommy Des Brisay is a Canadian runner and para-athlete living with autism. While running, Tommy often chants "I think I can...", recites lines from Disney movies, or sings. He has a YouTube channel where he posts his dances with Disney princesses and mini documentaries about his life.
Disney Voce
This is a video I've wanted to dish for years--a video that contextualizes Disneyland within the political and cultural events of the early 1950s. "Disneyland Voce" is distilled down from a dozen home movies, all shot in 1955, during the first five months that Disneyland was open to the public. Here's one reason I love home movies: they reveal the vacation experience as taken by the average guest. Disney has produced reels of film documenting the park during its early years (most notably "Disneyland U.S.A." in 1956 and "Gala Day at Disneyland" in 1959), but professional footage presents the park under ideal conditions. Home movies lay down the scenery as a typical guest would have experienced it. If you've ever wondered what it was like to visit Disneyland when it first opened, buckle into your DeLorean and hit the play button on YouTube. [more inside]

As a conclusion to those texts it was always planned that I would write a sort of 'epilogue' to my career, the subject of which would obviously be the reasons for why I quit... At the last moment the Disney Corporation refused to allow my text to appear in a book series that was published under their license...

Couple glitches, but good use of concepts
You did a good job of cramming lots of basic game concepts into a short flash, but there are still a couple glitches. The only really annoying one is the lava on the final level -- I just flung myself into it, racked up negative 64 lives, and once the lava passed I could cruise around the level however I wanted. Also, if your professor cares about the quality of the artwork, I'd replace those blue and white guide lines on the final level with something smoother.
Rated 2.5 / 5 stars
Comment :P
Basketball level:
It would be nice if the ball didn't leave the screen, if you did so happen to muscle it well over or something. Waiting for the ball to return to your view is not very fun. At first i thought great...this game is broken now and I got to refresh the game, but to my relief it came back down.
Misspelling/grammar error:
On the "Final level instruction" page it says as follows:
(when you ready click "Lets do this", otherwise can jsut play with the basket ball)
It should read, "(When you are ready click "Lets do this", or just play with the basketball.)"
The final level was glitchy:
I randomly became stuck in the air with out apparent reason several times.
I even managed to get burned by the fire and came out with -48 lifes :P
The arrows telling you where to go was a nice touch, took me a little bit to catch onto it though.
The graphics were appalling to be honest, the character became...contorted very easy, especially with that bow, which didn't need to be there? As well umm no feet?
Overall: not complex and not to bad for someone new into the art. Would I return to this game to play it over and over? No.
Rated 1 / 5 stars
Feels like you made an attempt, but you've got some SFX issues (on the basketball thing) and there's just not much to it besides some generic puzzles. I suppose it does demonstrate a rudimentary knowledge scripting, but I have to rate this low because this is not a good portal submission.

Along with the Class of 2014, there were three other MCS degree candidates who were somewhat older. Their high-school careers had been interrupted by military service while their country was at war.

Despite having more than a dozen choices in our "Where Do You Call Home" on-line poll, a considerable 13 per cent of the Catskill Mountain News' readership eluded our demographic radar and had to respond "Other." With more than 300 votes, the results are in, and it appears CMN readers are all over the map.

By Cheryl Petersen Discussion on the costly and detrimental effects of invasive species in Delaware County didn't thwart an upbeat mood at the Delaware County Board of Supervisors meeting in Delhi on June 25. Optimism, or rather relief, was felt as Delaware County Judge Carl Becker spoke to board members and thanked them for advocating for another county judge. "The state legislature approved 25 new judges in the state, one of which will come to Delaware County. The judge will be dedicated to Family Court," said Becker, the only presiding county judge to date.
By Jay Braman Jr. News spread quickly across New York Monday of the state's top court's decision that New York's towns are able to use zoning laws to ban hydraulic fracturing within their borders, but that news has little impact within the vast New York City Watershed. In a precedent-setting ruling that could greatly affect the future of shale-gas drilling in New York, the state Court of Appeals ruled 5-2 in favor of the towns of Dryden and Middlefield, which both passed zoning ordinances in 2011 that expressly prohibited gas drilling and fracking within their town lines.
By Joe Moskowitz Nearly three years after being devastated by Hurricane Irene, work has finally begun on one of Fleischmanns' major assets, the village park. The Wagner Avenue park sits next the Bushkill stream and was totally destroyed in the hurricane with the raging water tearing up not just the grass but making the tennis court and playground unusable. This spring the Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) finally approved the village's project worksheet and rebuilding could begin.

Loading... Hey, Little Antby Phillip M. Hoose
None. None Loading...
Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. One of my favorite books! Story of a ANT and it's significance in our environment. All living things play a role in our ecosystem and ants as tiny as they be, still have a role in our environment. But, in the story the ant and a boy that believes it is "entitled" to step on the ant for no good purpose. Although this book is in Spanish does not take away from the literary elements presented (rhythm, rhyme) and having both copies in Spanish English would only be a plus for any class or home reader. The story within the story is also good. Do we pick on those that are smaller? How do we see ourselves and significance others place on us is important. Image, environment, systems, forshadowing, predicting The book shows that whether being tiny or large there are reasons why a person should not pick on another because everyone has feelings and a purpose in life. It shows a message to the students how picking on each other looks like and why it is not nice. Grade level: K-3 I loved this book personally. I loved the rhyming throughout the whole story. It made the story more fun and delightful to read. The first couple lines went: hey, little ant down in the crack, can you hear me? Can you talk back? See my shoe, can you see that? Well, now it's gonna squish you flat!" Writing with rhymes keeps the reader interested and it gives the story a little more spunk. The illustrations were also very well fitted to the story and it enhanced the story by creating the image of the boy and the little ant. It was very appropriate for the mood. This book also pushes readers to think about tough situations. In the book, the boy comes to a dilemma of whether or not he should squish the little ant because all his friends squish them. "But all my friends squish ants each day, squishing ants is a game we play. They're all looking at me--they're listening too. They all say I should squish you". This situation puts in the boy in a difficult position and the book actually creates a page if the reader (us) thinks if the ant should get squished. "Should the ant get squished? Should the ant go free?" The whole purpose of this story was to test the morals of young children. Is it right to kill innocent, harmless animals? Even though if everyone does it, should you be doing it? It makes the reader question some of their actions but does this in a very subtle way. This is a very enjoyable book. Summary:This book is about a little boy who wants to squish ants. The ant talks to the child and tells him not to squash him that he has feelings just like the boy. And that they both have families to take care of and other people that care about him. The boy doesn't squash the ant in turn the ant asks the boy what he would do if he was as small as an ant. Reaction: The rhyming in the story is very catchy and made ma laugh as I was reading it. I like the plot of the story it goes to show that we are all alike in some way shape or form. Extentions: This book could be used to teach a science lesson about ants and they environments. Possibly a lesson on peer pressure the child in the book was killing ants because his friends were. A lesson on what makes up all types of families even though the child is human he still has a family and the ant as well has a family. Summary: This sing-along story is a story about a boy who thinks he should step on this little, tiny ant because he believes since the ant is so tiny, nobody would miss it. But the ant talks back and pleads for the boy to refrain from stepping on him. At the end, the decision whether or not the boy will step on him is up for you to decide. Personal Reaction: I thought this story was kind of sad because I felt bad for the ant, he just wanted to live. I really liked the sing-along tune though! Classroom Extensions: 1. The students can discuss why even the small things matter. I could describe different instances where there would be no life without the tiny things. This could easily turn into a science lesson. 2. The students could create a comparison chart of two totally different things and find the similarities between the two to show that even big and small things have similarities. no reviews | add a review

About Suzanne Oesterling
I have had the privilege of living in Ireland for six years and have traveled Europe during those years, taking as many photos as possible! Photography has always been an interest of mine, thus I've had a natural tendency to photograph anything that catches my eye. Being raised by two teachers; one a teacher of art and the other of carpentry, I've learned to appreciate images that create a story, a certain feeling, or are just simply pleasing to the eye. Over the years I've really enjoyed practicing and perfecting landscape and portrait photography.
Recently I've entered photos of my children in a Child Model Magazine photography contest, and two were selected for publishing. I do look forward to exploring California and using photography to capture vivid imagery, memories and the ubiquitous California lifestyle. I hope you enjoy my photos. If you decide to purchase, the Fine Art America Logo will not appear on your printed image. Slainte!

text: by Luncha Libre A mysterious giant hole and crater have suddenly appeared in Siberia, Russia. There are not many details right now, but the video captured from a helicopter shows a weird configuration with debris and signs of combustion around it. The hole is about 262 feet in diameter and it certainly doesn't look like a sinkhole, although you can see a large cavern under it. The video was filmed from a helicopter over the Yamal Peninsula, the location of major gas fields discovered in 1972 and currently being exploited by the Russian energy giant Gazprom. Of course, the internet is now raging with rumors about meteors, giant worm from hell coming out of its lair, and drilling UFOs. According to the Russian paper, there's an expedition on its way that "includes two experts from the Centre for the Study of the Arctic and one from Cryosphere Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences. They plan to take samples of soil, air and water from the scene." Talking to The Sydney Morning Herald, polar scientist Dr. Chris Fogwill says it's likely to be a geological phenomenon called a pingo—a block of ice that's grown into a small hill in the frozen arctic ground: Pingos, also known as ancient alien landing and communication sites: tags: Yeah science Recent Comments »7/16/14 10:00 PM by bruddahoodamanEither AvP or graboids.

The Windows GUI has always used oblique projection.
Go look at the folder icons in Windows 7. If you're not convinced by the simple fact that they don't suck at your eyeballs like isometric or oblique drawings always do, switch to "extra large icons" view, and trace back the top and bottom edges of the folder cover. The lines converge. The facing edges of the sheets of paper in the folders are slightly shorter the further back they are in the view. That's perspective, that is.

The Resource Center has all the info you'll need From content to user feedback, the resource center has the information you need for every level of the entrepreneurial process.
When President Obama will deliver his first State of the Union address is still unclear. However, with 80 percent of the population believing that new economic growth and jobs will come from entrepreneurs, discussion around what his address should include in terms of policies that encourage new start-ups is already underway.
Since the economic crisis broke out, capitalism has been under the microscope. Many have blamed evil businesses and market forces for the financial meltdown, and have lost confidence in private-sector engagement strategies for recovery. Luckily, in this country many more have experienced the positive impact of entrepreneurship either directly and indirectly. In a March 2009 survey, 63% of respondents said they "prefer giving individuals the incentives they need to start their own businesses as opposed to allowing the government to create new jobs directly." A look at the role of new businesses in the economy reveals that it is not a matter of rejecting capitalism but rather of allowing more entrepreneurs into the economy.
Selling your business is similar to raising capital. The difference: you're selling the whole company. Selling your company, like raising money, includes preparing the business plan, financials, cash-flow projections, and demonstration of Sarbanes-Oxley compliance practices.
Doing business in the rough-and-tumble arena of underdeveloped countries involves adhering to global business basics, such as researching markets thoroughly, while coping with surprises, writes a veteran international entrepreneur who first took his company overseas three decades ago. In entering the "emerging markets," entrepreneurs need to keep close tabs on how (and if) they will be paid, as well as on local managers overly eager to make sales.
Operating under a mandate to prepare for the worst in order to achieve the best, the author, an African-American woman entrepreneur in the male-dominated metals industry, writes that preparation has been critical to facing the challenges presented by the economic difficulties and post-terrorist environment of this difficult year 2001.
As a child growing up in Chihuahua, Mexico, Cecilia Levine's English vocabulary didn't include "entrepreneurship," but she certainly could see the difference it made in people's lives. What she couldn't see then was how entrepreneurship would provide her with the tools, resources and passion to improve the lives of thousands on both sides of the U.S.-Mexican border.
With the nation's ethics deteriorating in the wake of widespread corporate scandal, entrepreneurs need to examine questionable practices in their own milieu, such as inflating expectations to attract funding, writes the author. Included is a look at the unlikely course this former high-tech company founder has taken in order to adhere to principles.
Entrepreneurs, in particular, are having troubles with today's widespread age-disconnect between managers and employees. The many twentysomethings who are launching companies these days hire workers who are both younger and older than they are, writes the author, a frequent EntreWorld contributor. She maintains that to manage this so-called "generation gap," you'll need to build a common understanding based on your company's values.
This article outlines the purpose of the Six DisciplinesT approach, explains in brief the value of some of the tools used in this methodology, and provides useful links, especially to the Six Disciplines Web site. The site provides entrepreneurs with a way to see what implementation might be like and offers examples of companies that have put Six Disciplines to work in their companies. The process is designed specifically for small and mid-sized companies with more than twenty employees.
Global growth is essential for entrepreneurial companies but must be managed to overcome challenges such as language barriers and tax-related paperwork, says the founder of a Harley-Davidson licensee.

2014 Porsche Macan Revealed in Spy Photos
Sharing some body camouflage from its big brother the Cayenne, our photographers have just snapped these spy photos of the upcoming 2014 Porsche Macan.
Set to slot in below the Cayenne and ride on the same platform as the Audi Q5, the Porsche Macan is noticeably smaller with a lower overall height as well.
Details on what engines the Porsche Macan will sport have not been confirmed but there's plenty of speculation and a long list of donor engines within the VW Group lineup. For starters there's the same hybrid drivetrain used in the Audi Q5 Hybrid with a VW-sourced 2.0-liter 4-cylinder turbocharged engine being mated to a 44 hp electric motor. A non-hybrid 4-cylinder is also rumored and either way it's a near certainty that the Macan will be the first Porsche since 1995 to sport fewer than six-cylinders.
A top level Porsche Macan Turbo is believed to get a 3.0-liter V6 engine with twin turbochargers making 370 hp and around 400 lb-ft of torque. Look for Porsche's 7-speed PDK dual-clutch automatic to be used, while there is the possibility we could see the 911's new 7-speed manual as well.
Along with the 4-door spied here, Porsche is prepping a 2-door version of the Macan as well.
