The Blue Room (La Chambre bleue)
By Alan Scherstuhl
Egypt's prolific cinematic ambassador, who died last year at age 82, Youssef Chahine is remembered with an eight-film eulogy. Alternately praised and banned under King Farouk, Sadat, and Mubarak, Chahine was the most famous film chronicler of the pan-Arab world, with all the accolades and responsibility of being his country's unofficial spokesman on the festival circuit. He "did" the Crusades (Saladin), the Arab-Israeli War (The Sparrow), and Napoleon in Egypt (Adieu Bonaparte, starring Patrice Chéreau). Today, his films are scarcely seen in the U.S.—save a clumsy contribution to omnibus 11'09"01, whose defensiveness over fundamentalist violence belies Chahine's cosmopolitanism. (He was bisexual, from a Catholic family, weaned on American movies.) His neorealist-tinged breakthrough, 1958's Cairo Station, starred the director as a crippled train platform vendor. Alexandria . . . Why? (1978), the first installment in his autobiographical Alexandria quartet, introduces Chahine's alter ego, Yehia, a young man whose passion for MGM fantasia leads him on a pilgrimage from the German-threatened Egypt of 1942 to the Pasadena Playhouse. Never cautious in subject or form, Chahine's sprawl recalls Fellini at his most extroverted (and scattered), including an amateur theatrical reproduction of the Battle of El Alamein intercut with newsreel footage, and a razor's-edge affair between a British soldier and a homicidal Egyptian aristocrat.

Before the court is Defendants Kendra and Ryan Camp's ("the Camps") motion to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction and improper venue. (Mot. (Dkt. # 15).) The Camps argue that they do not have sufficient contacts with the state of Washington to be sued here given that their business, which designs websites, operates out of Florida and has only two Washington customers. Plaintiff Getty Images (US), Inc. ("Getty") argues that the Camps' contacts with Washington are sufficient to establish personal jurisdiction. The court agrees with Getty, finding that all elements of the test for personal jurisdiction are met and that venue is proper in the Western District of Washington. Accordingly, the motion is DENIED.
This case is about pictures of cats and dogs. Getty controls the intellectual property rights to numerous pictures of cats and dogs. Getty is a digital content provider that licenses imagery, video, and music to business customers for use in websites, books, newspapers, magazines, television, and other mediums. Getty owns some of the images it licenses and also acts as a distributor for numerous third-party content suppliers.
The Camps are a Florida couple who run a website design company from their home. They design websites for veterinarians and veterinary clinics, doing business under the name of Vet Web Designers. They use pictures of cats and dogs in the websites they design.

Strengths: Shimano Deore Derailer and shift levers, Hayes Mechanical Disc brakes, Maxxis tires, Durable paint finish
Weaknesses: Koski Seat
Bottom Line:
Only problems I ran into was that I had a clicking noise coming from the bottom bracket when I pedaled. I brought it right back to the shop I purchased it from. The tech was able to tighten each side about a 1/4" turn which fixed my issue. The only other problem I had was that the front brake caliper was out of alignment that I fixed with a quick adjustment.

Similar Products Used: Gary Fisher Hoo Koo E Koo
Bike Setup: Stock
Date Reviewed: February 25, 2005
Strengths: Great for the price
Hayes brakes
LX/Deore drive
tires better than most bikes in this price range
Weaknesses: no locktite on several bolts
platform pedals
the seat
a bit on the heavy side (my 21.5" frame doesn't help)
Bottom Line:
Jamis is probably the only company that rivals Ironhorse for value. The LX/Deore drivetrain and hayes brakes simply cannot be found on many bikes under $500. Apparently, the company ran out of the Pilot forks, so they substituted the Manitou (which isn't a bad fork, even if it's not great) and upgraded the rear to LX to compensate. I love the frame geometry - the bike has a very stable and solid feel. The only uncomfortable aspect of the bike is the seat, which becomes a literal pain in the butt if you ride every day. My only real gripe with the bike was probably a blip in manufacturing. I was riding down a rocky hill at a rock quarry I like to ride when i noticed heavy modulation coming from the rear brake. When a came to a stop, I realized that one of the mounting bolts had fallen off the brake caliper. Fortunately, my buddy's bar end had a bolt that threaded up, but I came to realize that nobody put any locktight on the rear brakes. The front had it, but not the rear. Unfortunately, Iron Horse discontinued the Rogue line. It still exists somewhat as the Maverick Expert, and Iron Horse still makes great bikes at a great price. Check them out if you can.

(Edmonton) Researchers from the University of Alberta are helping Canadian smokers butt out with a new textbook designed to give health professionals the right tools to treat tobacco addiction.
Disease Interrupted: Tobacco Reduction and Cessation is written for health professionals to help smokers quit and contains the country's first clinical guidelines on treating tobacco addiction.
Co-editor Charl Els, a psychiatrist, addiction specialist and associate clinical professor in the Faculty of Medicine & Dentistry, says in some parts of the country, health professionals view smoking as a lifestyle choice and are resistant to treating tobacco use as an addiction. That leaves smokers to quit on their own, with far less success.
"Smoking is a bona fide chronic relapsing disease that responds well to treatment, and we have safe and effective treatment available. There's no excuse to not treat," says Els. "Hopefully this books starts to shift attitudes in the right direction."
Disease Interrupted contains input from 50 health professionals from around the world, making it a "who's who of tobacco cessation," says Els, who self-published the book with co-editor Diane Kunyk, an assistant professor in the Faculty of Nursing, and Peter Selby of the University of Toronto.
Health-care professionals are the primary audience, says Kunyk, noting the duty to treat includes family physicians, nurses, dentists and others. According to the World Health Organization, tobacco use remains the leading preventable cause of death and disease worldwidekilling 5.4 million every year.
"Tobacco use is such a prevalent condition20 per cent of the Canadian population smokeresponsibility for treatment can't be limited to one group," she says.
Disease Interrupted was funded in part by Health Canada, which Els argues makes it free of bias associated with texts funded by the pharmaceutical industrybooks he says are designed to sell dru

School Breakfasts for Children
Roll over image to zoom in
Help hungry children learn by giving them the fuel they need to start the day.
In poverty-battered Mauritania, thousands of children walk several miles to school every day. Their parents are too poor to give them anything for breakfast and, after an exhausting walk, children arrive at the classroom tired and hungry. With empty stomachs they are not able to focus and cannot absorb what their teacher is saying.
A simple breakfast composed of 25g of corn-soya blend and 10g of sugar will provide pupils with an improved diet and help them concentrate in the classroom. It will also motivate parents to send children, especially girls, to school instead of making them work around the household.
By getting more children into the classroom, the World Food Program will be able not only to fight hunger in Mauritania, but also to offer thousands of children the key to a better future through education.
This Gift That Gives More™ provides in-school breakfast to two hungry children for nine months, and helps the United Nations World Food Program (WFP) fight hunger in the most impoverished regions of Mauritania and around the world.
Friends of WFP is a U.S.-based, nonprofit, nonpartisan organization that focuses on building support in the United States for the United Nations World Food Program (WFP) and other hunger relief operations. Friends of WFP unites organizations and individuals committed to solving world hunger. Its education, advocacy and fundraising efforts in the United States support WFP's life-saving global food assistance and development programs.

WORST GIFT EVER and my wife once got a buy one get one free chick-fil-a coupon for her Christmas bonus. (OK I am kidding about the bonus part, they didn't call it that but she didn't get a bonus that year and they handed out the coupons around Christmas time so we joke that it was her bonus.)
Anyway I would be happy to trade this "POS" free game lounge for a buy one get one free chick-fil-a coupon.
Does anyway actually pay DirectTV for the game lounge? I wonder what their subscriber counts are for this. It can't be more than 10,000 if that.

Got a card from DTV today. My anniversary gift for being a loyal customer..."GameLounge" for 3 months?! I don't mean to sound ungreatful but,"GameLounge". If I call do you think they might exchange this for something else since we are not gamers here.
I got it as well, very disappointed, hearing what others got as gifts in other threads.

I'm sorry that you got sent Game Lounge. It's really never in any CSR's hands what you get.
FWIW (which is literally, virtually, nothing), I know someone who likes Game Lounge... She's subscribed to it, I guess her and her kids use it all the time. That's about all I know.
If you haven't used it in a while, and you're in good standing, DirecTV usually gives away Showtime free for 3 months (I dont know if they still do) once a year.

I mean, really, if you are paying over 150 bucks a month for satellite, you had better have a computer for playing games. Pogo is cheaper and beyond compare IMHO.
But, like I said, free is free so it was a value at 2x the price. Also, DTV is the only utility I have that even tries to give me anything for free. When is the last time Nicor, ComEd or Comcast ever comped you unasked????

Toto CreationsRead MoreA deep, healthy bronze hue floods customers' skin about four to six hours after expert technicians spritz bodies with Toto Creations' airbrush tanning solutions. That's because the DHA in the organic, aloe-based spray tan reacts with the amino acids in the outer layers of the skin, causing the bronze hues to appear. Technicians carefully apply the spray to ensure no drips or streaks, customizing the color to best suit each client's body type and distance from the nearest beach or roof that gets a lot of sun.69 Claremont RoadBernardsville, NJ US

Our automatic door openers are designed to provide for easy opening and closing of interior and exterior doors in high use public applications. They are ADA compliant when correctly installed. This 4300 jamb mount handicap door opener is intended for all commercial applications when the door opens outwards-it pushes the door open to the exterior. The opener is attached to the jamb above the door and requires at least 5 1/2" of clear space above the door & ceiling.
Included with our Beige 4300 Automatic Door Openers (For the 4301 Bronze unit choose the color upgrade option above for an additional $35.)
Installation Ease
Versatile Applications
An Array of Companion Controls available
See 4300 Accessories and Switches to add any of these products to your 4300 Door Opener purchase.
Built in Safety Features
Dimensions: 18 1/2"W X 8 1/2"H X 7"D
Requires at least 51/2" above top of door & ceiling for Jamb Mount units & at least 8 1/2" for Door Mount units between door and wall behind door when door is open to 90 degrees. (Refer to the Inverted Jamb Mount model tab for extra high doors-8'0 or taller.)
Weight: 19 lbs
Helpful Notes
The 4300 Commercial ADA Compliant automatic door opener is designed to function in high use commercial & public applications. It is ADA Compliant when installed correctly.
The arm of the handicap door opener does not attach to the door so the door swings freely without resistance until the wall switch is activated which sends a signal to open the door. A door closer is necessary on the opposite side of the remote door opener to close the door.
The jamb-mount electric door opener pushes the door open and door-mount automatic opener pulls the door open. The type of unit you will need to order is determined by evaluating if you need to push or pull the door open with the door opener mounted on the inside of the structure.
We highly recommend the use of our weather box wall switch (4495SQWR) for exterior installations. It is designed to withstand extreme temperatures and will last considerably longer than our regular non-weather box switch (4495SQ). No warranty is offered for non-weather box switches installed on the outside of structure.
While all our switches are available both wired and wireless (with 9v battery), our Model 4300 handicap door opener requires factory installation of a remote receiver (4470) in the unit so that it may receive a wireless signal.

Questions & Answers | Bridge-lighting semifinalists
PATRICK MCINERNEY: We are interested in the idea of taking a known element of urban structure within an existing landscape and, through technique, altering this so as to redefine it, and subsequently the surrounding landscape, in a new way. This project has the potential to be both emblematic and generative of a new line of thinking related to energy consumption and our relationship to the natural phenomena of this city: the light, air, fog and wind.
What do you believe lighting the bridge will mean for San Diego and the region?
BERTRAND CHIRON: Once in place, the illumination will bring a new night identity to the bay. It will also give hope and pride to the residents around San Diego Bay. I would like to add that I am fond of the city of San Diego. It seems to me that residents know how to enjoy life.
PETER FINK: Cities no longer recede quietly as darkness falls, but undergo a phenomenal transition into alternative cultural spaces. I strongly believe in a creative as well as a functional and environmental approach to lighting. Permanently or temporarily, it can be used to animate buildings and public spaces and introduce a new vibrant and powerful quality into cityscapes. The transformation of the bridge through lighting into a world-class iconic nighttime gateway to San Diego will contribute to the nighttime economy and tourism as well as to the perception of San Diego as a dynamic, fast-growing, can-do city.
PATRICK MCINERNEY: This project is an enormous opportunity for San Diego and Southern California. San Diego and its urban structure has clearly struggled to define itself despite the fact that our weather, climate and relationship to the Pacific alone allow us to be more independent in our urban thinking. The bridge lighting offers the city the ability to act as both a catalyst and a focus, a project to exemplify how and why our city is different. It also offers us the unique possibility to lead in respect to energy consumption and new modes of thinking about how we harvest energy.

Because that was where things REALLY started getting "flamboyant".
It wasn't bad either. Weird hybrid of fighter and shooter.

I really hope so. I was pretty disappointed how tame this game is, when I heard how outrageous and weird the series can be.
I'm no role model.
I wouldn't call this tame. The bosses in this game are still really crazy (Castle Elvis, the hands and the birdman in particular), just in a more "normal" way.

Well, tame compared to what I was expecting.

T-Shirt - 'Equal Love', 1 Aug 2009 Reg. No: HT 29773
- Summary:
- White t-shirt printed with heart motif inscribed 'EQUAL LOVE' and two pairs of swallows. Made for the National Day of Action for Same-Sex Marriage on 1 August 2009. Part of the Equal Love campaign for marriage law reform run by the Victorian Gay and Lesbian Rights Lobby. The goal of Equal Love is the repeal of the Australian ban on same-sex marriage formalized by the Howard federal government in 2004.
The t-shirt was designed by Adrian Harris from an idea by Meighen Katz. The final product was black on white except for the heart, which was red (as in this example). The t-shirts were sold for $20 at events and at the Victorian National Day of Action, culminating in a rally at Federation Square.
The Victorian Gay and Lesbian Rights Lobby states that:
'Equal Love aims to inform the community of the emotional, social and financial cost which results from the lack of same-sex relationship recognition. And to educate the community about the importance of formal legal recognition of same-sex couples, and advocate for change.' The Lobby seeks to reform federal, Victorian and local law. Regarding federal law, it focuses on the right of same sex couples to access marriage, the equal recognition of same sex domestic and de facto partnerships under law, the consideration of a civil union and relationship registration scheme as an alternative to same-sex marriage, and recognition of foreign marriages and civil unions between same-sex couples. Regarding Victorian law, the Lobby seeks to extend domestic partnership laws to include parenting rights and remove discrimination and the consideration of a civil union and relationship registration scheme. Regarding local law, it seeks a relationship registration scheme for same-sex couples recognized by local councils.
The City of Melbourne launched its Relationship Declaration Register on 2 April 2007, providing the means for both mixed-sex and same-sex couples to formally declare their relationships.
- Description:
- White t-shirt with printing on front only. Front features a red heart with floral detail behind, overlaid with banner inscribed 'EQUAL LOVE'. A pair of while swallows fly above; a pair of black swallows fly below. Extended text in black appears further down front. No printing on back. Two labels sewn into collar. Appears unworn. Brown discolouration on back of proper left sleeve; small spot of ink on front of same.
- Statement Of Significance:
- Part of a Museum Victoria collection documenting the material culture of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer communities in Victoria. In 2005 the Museum joined with the Australian Lesbian and Gay Archives and the State Library of Victoria to conduct a survey of GLBT material culture in public and private collections in Victoria. (Refer Kate Davison (2006), Lesbian, Bisexual, Gay, Transgender Material Survey: Project Report 2006.) The report identified the need for major institutions to build their collections of GLBT material, providing better representation in Victorian museums and libraries and improving engagement with diverse communities.
T-shirts like these are commonly distributed by lobby groups organising marches, blockades and other public campaigns relating to legislation, Government policy or community attitudes. They often specific advertise days of protest or events, and are sometimes supplemented by badges, posters, postcards and banners. They provide a material record of activity that is largely intangible and ephemeral, conducted in meeting rooms, on the streets and in on-line networking sites.

|LOL Ok, this might have very little to do with astrology but I'm still curious. I know that alcohol has the ability to alter people's moods and behaviors. Since I don't drink alcohol, I have no idea how I would act under the influence. lol
But for those drinkers out there, are you ever aware of how you act when you've had a bit too much to drink? Do people tell you that you act differently than usual?
Are you a happy drunk or a grumpy drunk? lol
This is just a few of my personal observations:
Capricorn (my mom)-When she gets drunk, her reserved, timid nature disappears and she becomes more goofy and laid-back. She'll bring out pictures of when she was a little girl and start telling funny stories about her childhood in Switzerland (that's where she's from orginally) Apparently she used to run around and play in the fields with the lambs lol
Aries (my friend)- When she gets drunk, she turns into this guru and starts dishing out unsolicited yet well-meaning advice to people (sometimes even to strangers lol) and then in the middle of her speech, she'll stop and check her cell phone for missed calls and when she's done with that she goes, "So as I was saying.........wait, what was I talking about??". And then we have to remind her about the topic LOL
Sagittarius (my boyfriend)-Well, let's just say him and alcohol do not mix well. He has a tendency to turn snarky and aggressive. His jealousy and insecurities come out. He is normally a laid-back, cheerful dude.
Leo (my friend) When he gets drunk. he becomes downright jolly and cracks a lot of jokes and he doesn't care if nobody is laughing because HE is in a good mood and that's what matters lol He is normally a shy guy.
Aquarius (my friend)-When she's drunk, she becomes flirty lol Guys usually call her "ice princess" because she won't even smile at men, let alone flirt when sober. lol
|Crazy/excited drunk
My aqua sun makes me attracted to anything that looks interesting and I mean anything.
My Sag moon probably is what makes me want to dance and no I am not that person that is just doing the two step in the corner and thinking that everybody else is dancing. I actually know how to lol.
Aries venus well I think you all know what that can do.
My mars cancer have not really thought of how that comes out maybe it balances me out lol I have no idea.

|i'm a chill/laid-back, pleasant drunk. i just dance and dance and dance, smile a bit more, talk a bit more, and everyone wants to be my best friend. i never get out of control. and no one can really tell when i'm hammered.

|"Sagittarius (my boyfriend)-Well, let's just say him and alcohol do not mix well. He has a tendency to turn snarky and aggressive. His jealousy and insecurities come out. He is normally a laid-back, cheerful dude."
i've always suspected that this is a mutable sign thing. my gem/pisces moon friend is the same way. he becomes an entirely different person/evil alter ego.

I am similar to you-but if I over indulge I can be overly emotional, I can cry and my nature becomes more sensitive.

|Leo - I get louder. And funnier, well I think i do anyway
2/1/2012 1:24:47 PM | More
|Cap - I hide hammered well. Only really good friends suspect my true drunkenness. Suspect.
That said my humor does get even more bawdy and wine/spirits drunk is different from beer drunk.
2/1/2012 2:25:45 PM | More
|My Pisces ex would go from fun drunk to angry drunk in a flash.
My Aqua ex didn't really drink so I can't add anything on them either.
Agreed about the Sags. Fun and sometimes surprisingly philosophical. But they also hafta watch for people taking them the wrong way as they can border on obnoxious.

|i only have two friends that really gets DRUNK drunk..a taurus and a gemini
the taurus becomes extra talkative and tends to ramble..and depending on the situation, will get violent..mainly towards his gf, but he will fight anybody..he's had more street fights then anybody i know
the gem becomes loud and silly..is very funny thou

|Im a happy and horny drunk.
Drinking simply intensifies whatever mood I am in... happy, angry, horny, whatever. That is the reason rule #1 with drinking is not to start when you are in a bad mood, it just spirals and goes poorly. I am usually happy and upbeat so having a few drinks simply takes away my self-conciousness. I no longer care what people are thinking or how I am perceived. I am a happy, silly drunk.
|I remember a DXP discussion similar to this one time.. during the course of the conversation, it came up over and over enough for me to submit an observation: Drinking tends to bring out a man's Venus, and a woman's Moon. The results were interesting, and several people's experiences verified and backed it.
My own examples:
Me, Pisces Sun (barely) with an Aries Venus.. I'm normally very open, charming, friendly, sociable. Fearless and unselfconscious. Get a drink or two in me - I become quieter, still friendly but more observant and mellow. My wide-open smile becomes more of an amused, gentle grin. I become more like my Taurus Moon and less like my Aries Venus.
My Libra.. Libra Sun, Virgo Moon. He's a typical Libra.. sociable, friendly with everyone, lots of fun to be around, but a little reserved. A couple drinks and he becomes more Fiery, outgoing, gregarious.. MORE flirty, MORE showy and over-the-top (esp in regards to me and PDA's and open affection).. more like his Leo Venus. He's a very friendly, fun, HAPPY drunk -- and OMG that's a whole lot nicer than the angry, mean, cruel drunks I've known!
Posted by Nefer
I have an Aries moon, not Virgo. But yeah my Leo Venus shows when I drink.
|lets see,
Scorpio (my dad): he would want to talk to everyone and tell family secrets. when he got sober he wondered why everyone at the party was mad at him.
Aquarius(not me, my brother): he was a lets drink some more kind of guy and he would act silly. my brother is the most serious aquarius i know.
Aquarius (friend): she loves everyone and goes around kissing guys she don't know.
Libra (my bf): he is flirty, funny, makes everyone laugh and feel welcomed. and he will go around the room, "hey i know you" give hugs, shake hands etc... then he will come to me,"Hey your my gf, lets get naked. arent you hot, yea your hot" i would be like, "we are at a party" him:"get out! i want to be alone with my gf" hilarious. Then when everyone finally leaves he falls face down and goes to sleep.
Libra (friends): she gets really loud and goes around telling people whats wrong with them. When they look at her like she crazy she will laugh and say, "ha, your mad".
Gemini (friend): loves everyone and wants to take her clothes off. the one time we didnt get to her in time she was in her underwear. she was like, "look at my boobs..i need implants....dont you think i need implants..i got all this ass and no boobs." LMAO...so she googled boobs on her phone..she went around showing people pics of other women's boobs. "how you think these will look on me?"
Capricorn (friend): she talks way more than she usually does. she will go on these rants and tell everybody off. "remember you won that 7th grade spelling bee, i know you cheated you cookiemonster".
well none of my friends need to drink.
I dont drink so i dont know how i act when im drunk.

In the wake of outrage following gang rape, focus will be on need for swift punishment
The urgent need to reform the criminal justice system and ensure swift punishment will be a key element in the Jaipur Declaration the Congress plans to adopt at the AICC session, which will follow the chintan shivir later this week.
This comes in the wake of the nationwide outrage following the gang rape and brutal violation of a 23-year-old paramedical student here on December 16, with the outpouring of anger and anguish on the streets focussing on the inability of the system to tackle crime of all kinds, especially violence against the most vulnerable.
Indeed, the protests will influence the Congress' deliberations in a fundamental way: apart from spotlighting the need for a speedier justice system, one of the five subjects under the scanner will be women's empowerment, with party president Sonia Gandhi making one more stab at pushing the Women's Reservation Bill. The fact that half the invitees are under 45, with members of the Youth Congress and the NSUI accounting for as many as 119, will ensure that the use of the social media by the protesters is also be on the table, a senior functionary said.
Subsidy reduction
Deliberations on how to reform the criminal justice system will be part of the discussion on "Emerging socio-economic challenges," one of the five subjects the Congress will take up.
Two other critical issues that will be thrashed out under this head are "how to use technology to plug leakages in the system" and "how to reduce subsidies without hurting the poor," said Congress general secretary Digvijaya Singh, who heads the socio-economic challenges group.
This will feed into the current debate on the UPA government's ambitious plan to use the Aadhaar platform for direct cash transfers and the move towards reduction of subsidies through what Mr. Singh described as "closely targeted subsidies," already in vogue in Mexico and Brazil. He, however, stressed that there was no longer any difference of opinion in the party on the economic reforms agenda: "It is accepted by the Congress that [reforms] leads to economic growth which leads to higher tax collections which, in turn, lead to higher allocations in the social sector."
Mr. Singh, however, conceded that the challenge was how to draw up an accurate list of those who are below the poverty line (BPL): "One way would be to include all families where there is malnourishment, as this is clinically and visually easy to assess, include all SCs and STs except those who own over 10 acres of land and exclude all income taxpayers. That would leave 77 per cent of the population, and further criteria could be drawn up for them."
Food security Bill
The long-pending food security Bill will also be discussed at the chintan shivir: the parliamentary standing committee examining it will submit its final report to Lok Sabha Speaker Meira Kumar on January 16, two days ahead of the commencement of the chintan shivir. Of course, the Bill will then go to the Food Ministry, the Law Ministry and finally to the Cabinet — the hope, Congress sources said, is that it will be ready to be taken up in the budget session.
Deliberations on January 18 and 19, emanating from the five discussion papers prepared by the sub-committees on future political challenges, emerging socio-economic challenges, India and the world, organisational strengths and women's empowerment, will result in five reports. On January 19 evening, the five reports prepared by the 350-odd delegates — divided into five groups — will then be shaped into the Jaipur Declaration draft. The Congress Working Committee will also meet that evening.
On January 20, that draft will be placed before the AICC session, where it will be discussed again and the amended text adopted. The Jaipur Declaration, Mr. Singh says, will be a key document when the election manifesto for 2014 is formulated.
The chintan shivir will clearly influence the working of the Rahul Gandhi-headed Organising Committee, which has three separate sub-groups dealing with the manifesto, communication and the media, and electoral alliances.
It is learnt that the subject of alliances will also come up for discussion by the group that takes up political challenges: while the Congress has instinctively been opposed to such alliances, since the last chintan shivir in 2003 in Shimla, it has accepted coalition politics as inevitable.

Post Hopes for Safe Return of Reporters Detained in Egypt
Two staffers are reportedly being held by the Egyptian Interior Ministry
Update: Fadel and Davidson have been released, but their assistant and driver remain in custody.The Post is continuing to seek their release.
As mobs in Cairo attacked journalists from many nations, from Greece to the United States, Post editors got news that two staffers—Cairo Bureau Chief Leila Fadel and photographer Linda Davidson—were in some kind of custody in Egypt. Post Executive Editor Marcus Brauchli sent this message to the Post newsroom just before noon:
Colleagues, you will have seen that Leila Fadel and Linda Davidson apparently have been detained in Cairo. We have limited information but believe that they, along with some other journalists and representatives of
other international groups, are being held by the Interior Ministry. We've informed the State Department and the Egyptian Embassy, who have promised to seek further information about their status. We're obviously concerned and are staying closely in touch with our other journalists on the ground.

Two dead, hundreds evacuated in flood-hit French Riviera
Published on Jan 20, 2014 6:56 AM
HYERES, France (AFP) - Two people were killed on Sunday and more than 150 had to be airlifted to safety after floods struck south-eastern France, local authorities said.
A third man disappeared while out on his boat and 4,000 homes have been left without power after the inundations in the department of Var, they said.
Local official Laurent Cayrel said one of the victims, a 73-year-old man, died in his basement, while the other was swept away in his car.
"The situation is very worrying, and it's not going to get any better tonight (Sunday)," he said, adding that there had been "record rainfall".

Our minds tend towards the creation of categories. The capacity to classify and order is the engine of learning and enquiry. When permitted to go unexamined, it may also be the source of prejudice and injustice.
Alongside a major emphasis on economy and jobs in a time of crisis (the special session this morning was entitled 'A Better Way') media issues are among the concerns being tackled at the 115th STUC (S
Since 2000, 55 journalists in Mexico have been killed. Most of them brutally shot or tortured for doing their job. Maria Elizabeth Macia Castro from the city of Nuevo Laredo wrote online under the pseudonym 'The Girl from Laredo', reporting the activities of criminal groups in her area. She used Twitter to push the information she uncovered to a wider audience.
As previously reported on Ekklesia, Professor Jolyon Mitchell from Edinburgh University delivered his inaugural lecture entitled 'How can weapons be turned into art? How can swords be transformed into ploughshares?' back in September last year. It is now available to view here on YouTube, and very well worth watching.

Patagonia Men's Merino 3 MW Zip-Neck
Products on Sale are Discontinued Styles or Colors.
The Patagonia Men's Merino 3 MW Zip-Neck is a merino wool base layer for all of your cold weather adventures. Merino wool (80%) is blended with Capilene (20%) to create a durable, wicking layer you can wear all day and into the night. Off-set seams throughout the garment reduce bulk and make it comfortable to wear a pack or harness over top. Merino is naturally odor-resistant so your buddies won't mind hanging out with you after the third day on the trail. When you get all steamed up, open up the 1/4 zip to quickly vent and regulate your temperature. Totally not how I expected to finish that sentence.
FEATURES of the Patagonia Men's Merino 3 MW Zip-Neck
- Fine merino wool responsibly sourced from the grasslands of Patagonia and blended with Capilene polyester for improved wicking, durability and dry time
- 18.9 micron-gauge yarn; jersey-knit construction
- Offset seams and underarm panels minimize chafing, maximize range of motion and comfort
- Hidden thumb loops for secure hand coverage
- Slow-washed without chlorine to prevent shrinkage
- Machine-wash cold, tumble dry at low temperature

This is my go-to baselayer for winter runs. Thus far I've combined 3 runs totaling 4-5 hours in it without it getting stinky (one of the big benefits of merino)... and I've done this several times. It's my only running top I pack when I travel somewhere that will be 35-50 degrees. The zipper doesn't bounce around noisily. Thumb loops are great. Fit is athletic cut, but not skin tight. I am 5'10'' and 150lbs, and a small is a perfect fit... plus it might shrink a little if I pop it in the dryer after a wash. As far as merino products, it's about as good as it gets. Seams don't rub and it seems durable enough for a few seasons of hard use.

Truly Southern Hospitality
May 16, 2015
You will not find another hotel with such AWSOME staff. For someone like me who spend more than 100 days a year in hotel rooms, this is by far the highest rating I can give to a hotel staff. The staff here is the benchmark for Southern Hospitality. I have stayed at all the local hotels around this Candlewood before, I was blown away by the service level with this Candlewood. I would definitely recommend this hotel if you are either traveling for business or pleasure, you will walk in with a tire grumpy long drive and leave with a refreshed happy smile.

On their first date, she was far from smitten. He seemed too serious. But she continued to hang out with him. "He'd call and say, 'Do you want to have dinner? Just friends.'' or "Do you want to go swimming? Just friends.''
Eventually, she fell in love with Dufresne's sincerity and strength of purpose. "There was a light inside of him that made me believe in all the possibilities of where we could go,'' she says. "He was in every way a chivalrous, honorable man.''
She knew that Type 1 diabetes might someday cut short his life. But she had faith that he'd survive for many years. They agreed to marry and had been together for about a year, platonically and later romantically, when he died.
Dufresne's dedication, in part, inspired Copeland's decision to pursue a degree in criminal justice so she could play a role in changing incarceration policies and prisoner re-entry. She started the program a few months after his death, despite her lack of funding and doubts that it was too soon. "What am I going to do next? God better make it clear,'' she told her mother.
When she saw that the dean of the Criminal Justice school was named Todd Clear, she interpreted that as a "divine intervention'' and enrolled.
"We have a lot of students who have a story about why they wanted to pursue criminal justice, but her story is particularly poignant,'' says Clear. "Grief is an enormous leveler. Not everybody gets a chance to go through it at her age, but all of us go through it at some time. It has a permanent impact on the way you see things.''
Clear thinks Copeland has the ability to create change.
"She has extraordinary passion,'' he says. "She'll make a mark. She's got all the tools to be an effective reformer.''
Copeland says she may one day transform her blog into a book, but in the meantime she thinks "Thank you Very Sweet'' can help others who are grieving find solace and has already heard feedback from readers, who have totaled about 6,000 since the blog began.
"It was for those people to find some resonance and for people who haven't experienced anything like this themselves to know what it's like,'' she says.
The blog has provided Copeland with insight into her own feelings and helped her gain the certainty that she can reach her goals.
"Writing about this has made me more comfortable in my own skin and more comfortable with my story,'' she says. "It's just given me a different kind of confidence moving forward. And it's something I really needed.''

text: UMEK - It Is Simple But It Works Like Fcuk (Original Mix) by 1605 Music Therapy published on 2012/09/08 08:06:19 +0000 There is no reason to be subtle with titles, and this one says it all. The 1605 leader rolls the beats with unparalleled ease, making the whole affair seem like a walk through the park. The rubber-band bassline provides the juice and the sparse percussion and genius edits provide the brain stimulation. Keeping the arrangement spanking clean, a warped vocal in the breakdown signals ensuing mayhem, and each consecutive element falls neatly into place. Sinisa Tamamovic goes the dub route, with clever effects and a snappy rhythm section, while DJ PP funks things up with meaty percussion and neat little tricks. The Filterheadz remix boasts almost-tribal sensibilities, which provide, in essence a proper drum attack. Intricate programming and some psycho medicine are the perfect combination to seal the deal.

Area codes aren't a big deal everywhere -- Montana, for instance, which only has one area code for the entire state: 406.

SoRichIam Media Announces Worldwide Distribution of The Answer Key to Avoid Debt, Build Credit & Retire Rich on Apple's iBookstore and NOOK via Barnes & Noble
SoRichIam Media announces the world release of the latest edition of their easy read career and finance classic, The Answer Key to Avoid Debt, Build Credit & Retire Rich to the masses for the first time on iBookstore and NOOK. The wealth and wellness book encourages sustainability for Millennials in a comprehensive, fun and easy way. Making it available in digital format ensures it will likely become a staple of wisdom for a new generation.
San Franciso, CA (PRWEB) February 19, 2012
SoRichIam Media announces the February release of The Answer Key to Avoid Debt Build Credit & Retire Rich [for grads, soon to be grads, and everyone in between] in digital format through Apple´s iBookstore and Barnes & Noble's digital store, NOOK. Making the wealth and wellness book that encourages sustainability in a fun and easy way in digital format makes it accessible to avid readers, students, travelers, and those who commute.
The Answer Key to Avoid Debt Build Credit & Retire Rich inspires students to design a career plan that brings them consistent joy. It also promotes sustainability. The book shows readers how to create a long term savings plan they call their million dollar nest egg. Learn why.
The book says there are five questions that control all life. These five questions reveal who people are and determine what they become. Each person should answer these five questions to discover their purpose.
Once readers discover their purpose, they can live in consistent joy. Work is not a problem for people whose work is joyful. They are perpetually in alignment for promotion. They do the best work. These people shine unabashedly.
Creating an automatic savings plan is essential for these readers. They find out how to put money into a savings plan automatically regardless of their salary.
The content is very useful for graduates, but accessible and easily comprehended by high school and college students alike. But its greatest value is that it's easily applicable for those who have never had a college education.
Finally, these wealth and wellness students find the highest interest investments to make their money grow as if on steroids. There are people getting double and triple returns on their investments simply because they know where to find them. These readers become long term investors in a simple, decisive, and intelligent way. They are masters of their fates and captains of their souls.
Inevitably, they give back to their communities and society as a whole. The Answer Key to Avoid Debt Build Credit & Retire Rich is a little book with a big heart.
Find it in February on Apple´s iBookstore using iPad, iPad2, iPhone or iTunes or shop for it on NOOK via Barnes & Noble. The Answer Key to Avoid Debt Build Credit & Retire Rich is also available in Adobe Digital Edition and print for door to door shipping on its website at http://SoRichIam.com.

Enjoy the Natural Sweetness of Maine's Maple Syrup
Pure Maine maple syrup with a hint of the great north woods in it, has been brightening the flavor of fine, downeast food since long before the colonists arrived. Now, hundreds of years later, the quality is excellent, the degree of sweetness is fixed by law, and the uniquely delicious taste still varies as it always has. Sometimes the syrup is dark and rich, sometimes pale gold and delicate. It all depends on the soil and terrain, the wind and the weather, just like wine.
The tour stops for Maple Mania- 2015, have been announced. Six places to learn about all things maple. Six places to ask questions from fellow sugarmakers. Six places to network with industry experts from all over. Learn more now!

Maine Maple Sunday
Maine Maple Sunday was once again a huge success with between 75,000-100,000 people visiting sugarhouses, all over the state of Maine. The sun shined in a beautiful blue sky but unfortunately the wind blew and the thermometers barely moved. The 32nd Maine Maple Sunday was one of the coldest ever but nonetheless, spring is here!
Sugaring Season 2015!
March was a month of slow sap runs and many days when the sap didn't run at all. The first week in April brought the perfect weather for numerous days with temperatures freezing at night and into the 40F's during the day. April brought huge sap flows to most of Maine. Central and northern Maine were able to make syrup through much of April. As May is here now, most nothern Maine producers finished their season in the first week or two of the month. Production across the state was good overall with some areas having really good seasons and others slightly below average. In June, NASS statistics will come out and tell the exact picture of the 2015 season.
