Please do not use @ to quote someone. This forum provides with a tool just for that. Also it is hard to understand your English, before you post run your text into any text editor to spot easily avoidable mistakes. Last but not least, I understand you wanted to make a point but it would be easier if you posted all your math to prove your point.
My math shows that with - 12k Spirit, 35k sp, 25%mastery, 25%crit, 10%haste, PoM glyph - usage of sequence

I cant show all calcs because it made in hurry with excel, and they need some accurate work to post here.
My conclusion: such usage of BT is greatly discouraged by PWS mana-inefficiency. It is works good only if you get Rapture proc. And again I repeat myself. PWS is good only with Rapture. And if you can weave some spells in BT - thats awesome =)

The Institution must provide documentation to prove that the position requires a person with special qualifications and that the foreign national meets those qualifications. The Institution must pay the foreign national the amounts as described under the Labor Condition Application. The H-1 B visa is employer specific, which means that when the Institution submits an H-1 B petition for a foreign national and The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) approves it, the foreign national can only work in that Institution position. Additionally, an H-1B worker who has an H-1B approval from another employer is not automatically eligible to work at the Institution. An H-1B worker may work for more than one employer, but each employer must file a separate H-1B visa petition. The alien may not begin employment as an H-1B until the approval notice is received from the USCIS.
An H-1B visa holder may remain in H status for a maximum of six years. An initial application is made for a period of three years or less. Previous time spent in H or L status is counted toward the six-year limit unless the alien has spent at least one year outside of the United States. H-1B visa regulations have a "dual intent" provision, which allows for the filing or the intent to file a permanent resident petition while maintaining H-1B status.
WHOI Policy
It is the policy of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution to generally sponsor H-1B visa petitions on behalf of its Scientific and Technical Staff. A minimum of three to four months' lead time should be allowed to complete the application process.

The dependents of an H-1B visa holder, defined as spouses and unmarried minor children under 21 years of age, enter the U.S. in H-4 visa status. The dependent of an H-1B holder cannot be granted work authorization under any circumstances. However, they may seek independent visa sponsorship to allow for employment in professional positions.
H-4 visa holders may study in the U.S., full or part-time for the duration of the H-1 B's period of stay.

VI. Inadequate Civil Law Protections for Agricultural Workers
US law in theory protects all workers, including unauthorized workers, from sexual violence and sexual harassment. Title VII of the federal Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, or sex. The law also prohibits retaliation, including threats to report a worker to immigration authorities, against people who report discrimination. Sexual harassment is a form of sex discrimination prohibited under Title VII.[230]
But many survivors of workplace sexual violence and harassment find it difficult to gain meaningful protection under these laws. Several of the farmworkers identified for this report had filed claims for sexual harassment under Title VII or similar state law, but the vast majority had never filed a claim for sexual harassment or for any other workplace violation they had experienced.
Exclusion of Farmworkers from Worker Protection Laws
Historically, US labor law has excluded agricultural workers from federal protections that apply to workers in nearly every other industry.
Agricultural workers do not have collective bargaining rights under the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA).[231] Agricultural workers are also excluded from many of the protections of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). As a result, agricultural workers are not entitled under federal law to overtime pay, rest periods, or meal periods during the workday. They are also exempt from minimum wage requirements if they work on small farms.[232] The child labor provisions of the FLSA treat agricultural work differently from work in other industries. While the minimum age to work in most industries is 16, the standard minimum age for agriculture is 14; on small farms, there is no minimum age for children to work outside of school hours with their parents' permission.[233] Although agricultural work includes some of the most dangerous work in the country,[234] the Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) does not enforce federal workplace health and safety standards on farms with fewer than 11 employees, effectively excluding a third of all farmworkers.[235] Similarly, agricultural employers may require or allow 16- and 17-year-olds to work in particularly hazardous occupations, while in nonagricultural occupations, the minimum age for particularly hazardous work is 18.[236]
State worker protection legislation varies considerably. California provides collective bargaining rights for farmworkers excluded under the NLRA,[237] but no other state has such a law. California, Oregon, and Washington include farmworkers in state wage and hour, as well as rest and meal period, protections;[238] in other states, agricultural employers are subject only to the minimal federal requirements. California has no agricultural exemptions for workers' compensation, but most other states do, excluding small farms or migrant and seasonal farmworkers altogether.[239]
Agriculture is one of the most hazardous industries, with workers facing a higher risk of fatal and nonfatal injuries than workers in most other industries. In 2010 the injury rate for agricultural workers was over 20 percent higher than the rate for all workers; the fatality rate for farmworkers was over 7 times higher than for all workers.[240] Although several states require employers to provide clean drinking water, toilets, and other equipment to ensure sanitation and protection from heat stress, many farmworkers reported to Human Rights Watch that they had worked for employers who violated these rules. Employers must also abide by certain health and safety standards when applying pesticides, but again, farmworkers told us they had to work in areas that were still being sprayed or had been recently sprayed.[241]
Inadequate Enforcement of Existing Worker Protection Laws by DOL and Other Federal and State Agencies in Agricultural Workplaces
I would like to see the Department of Labor come. They should not announce their visits; they should show up without warning.
—Mercedes A., New York farmworker, August 2011.
Although farmworkers are highly vulnerable to a wide range of workplace abuses, the federal and state agencies charged with enforcing laws that do apply to farmworkers are seriously understaffed and unable to address the full scope of violations.
The Department of Labor (DOL) is charged with investigating violations under the Fair Labor Standards Act and the Agricultural Worker Protection Act (AWPA). Although surveys indicate that low-wage workers, particularly immigrant workers, experience high rates of wage theft,[242] from 2002 to 2008, DOL investigations of farms under the FLSA declined from 229 investigations to 110 investigations. During that same period, DOL investigations of farms under the AWPA declined from 1,849 investigations to 1,499, although the percentage of employers found to be violating the law held steady at 60 percent.[243] The penalties imposed are also very low. From 2002 to 2008, the average penalty assessed for a violation of the AWPA was only $342.[244] DOL's enforcement of child labor laws is equally spotty. Child labor violations in agriculture decreased from 36 cases (involving 109 children) in 2009 to 31 cases (involving 49 children) in 2010; overall civil monetary penalties assessed DOL for child labor decreased by almost half from 2009 to 2010.[245]
Enforcement by state agencies varies, but is rarely better. Some states exempt farmworkers from their state worker protection laws. Other states inadequately enforce laws that on paper should protect such workers. According to Nathan Dollar, director of a farmworker health program in North Carolina, when reports of violations are actually investigated and fines are levied, the fines are often negotiated down by the grower and end up not being paid at all.[246] North Carolina Legal Aid recently filed a complaint in November 2011 against the North Carolina Department of Labor for failing to ensure safe working and housing conditions for farmworkers in North Carolina.[247]
Many farmworkers interviewed by Human Rights Watch reported having worked at some point with an employer who violated wage and hour laws or occupational health and safety laws. This is significant because, as Daniela Dwyer, a legal services attorney in Florida, stated, there is a "broken windows" problem: "You can have all the workplace rights posters that you want, [but] if two out of three requirements are not being met, it gives people less confidence in their ability to act on their rights."[248]
The same supervisor who sexually harassed several women at a cauliflower packing plant in California had also created a dangerous and abusive workplace. The women reported that when another woman was seriously injured at work, she was not taken to the hospital. And while workers were told to gather at 6 a.m., the work would not start until 9 a.m., and they were not paid for the hours they spent waiting. Workers were never given lunch breaks or other breaks, and the bathroom was placed far away, further than allowed under California law. Magdalena C. said that when she complained about the bathrooms being far away, the supervisor lifted his middle finger, "as if he were sticking it inside [my vagina]," and said, "Now where are the bathrooms?"[249]
Attorneys representing women in sexual harassment cases said their clients reported seeing other violations at work. Many of their clients initially came in with questions about other issues or were represented in other matters, and as the clients came to trust them, they revealed that they had also been victims of sexual violence and harassment at work.[250] For example, one community worker had a client initially come with a question about unpaid wages. When she questioned her further about why she had not been paid, the client broke down and said the foreman had claimed the check was in his truck, had taken her to an isolated field, and had raped her. She reported, "She was just a vulnerable person…. She still wasn't given her check.[251]
In 2002 the EEOC reached a $1.5 million settlement with DeCoster,[252] an egg farm in Iowa that had a long history of being charged with other workplace violations, including child labor, failure to pay overtime, failure to comply with previous orders to install safety guards, and employing undocumented workers.[253]
Some seemingly unrelated workplace violations directly make women more vulnerable to sexual violence and harassment. For example, if bathrooms are not provided, as required by law, a man might be able to relieve himself discretely, but a woman might have to go far from the fields into woods or other secluded areas where she can more easily be assaulted.[254]
California's Unique Position in Agriculture
California annually generates $37.5 billion in revenue from agriculture, more than any other state in the US.[255] The major crops of fruits, vegetables, and nuts are particularly dependent on human labor. Thirty-six percent of all farmworkers in the US work in California; the next closest state is Washington, with only 8 percent.[256] California also has a higher proportion of unauthorized farmworkers, a higher percentage of workers employed by farm labor contractors, and a more rapidly increasing population of indigenous workers than other states.[257]
California also has some of the best legal protections for farmworkers, stronger in many cases than federal law.[258] The base of Cesar Chavez and the United Farm Workers, California has a long history of farmworker organizing and advocacy, and state law explicitly protects farmworkers' right to form unions.[259] There are more bilingual Spanish speakers working at social service agencies, law enforcement agencies, and regulatory agencies in California than in states where the Latino population is newer, such as North Carolina. Although there is still a serious lack of resources available to indigenous language speakers, California Rural Legal Assistance employs more indigenous language speakers than the US federal government.[260]
California law requires that employers with 50 or more employees provide sexual harassment training to their supervisors and managers once every two years.[261] The San Francisco Division of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) was the first within the EEOC to investigate and conduct outreach regarding sexual harassment among low-income immigrant women, including farmworkers. As the EEOC's William Tamayo explained, "The $1.855 million verdict against the largest lettuce grower, Tanimura & Antle, was an earthquake in Monterey County. The bigger growers are aware of the EEOC."[262]
Michael Meuter, an attorney at California Rural Legal Assistance, noted, "Success breeds success and interest."[263] California also has its own state law prohibiting sexual harassment, a provision of which gives California workers up to 300 days after the prohibited conduct to file charges with the EEOC, not 180 days as in states without this provision. California workers may also seek damage awards higher than those available under Title VII.
Our research does not allow us to draw firm conclusions on this point, but California farmworkers interviewed by Human Rights Watch seemed to have more awareness of their legal rights than farmworkers interviewed by the organization in less-regulated states, including New York and North Carolina. All but one of the farmworkers we spoke with who reported receiving sexual harassment training at work was in California (the exception was a poultry processing worker in North Carolina), although many of them noted that the training was performed perfunctorily or not taken seriously. Organizations like Lideres Campesinas also provide Know-Your-Rights trainings for many farmworker women in California, and several of its members believe these trainings have made a difference.
Several California farmworkers we spoke with said their work conditions had improved, at least a little, over the years.[264] Ines R., an 18-year-old who performs agricultural work during the summers when she is not in college, told us her farmworker parents had "nothing, no water" at their first workplaces in California, while she works with a supervisor who "really takes care of people."[265] Several of the sexual harassment cases in California involved farmworkers who had previously asserted their rights in other matters or who came seeking assistance in another matter. Lucia A. knew where she could go for help because she had previously filed a claim for unemployment.[266] The mother of the teenager who filed a sexual harassment lawsuit at Giumarra Vineyards had also previously been represented by California Rural Legal Assistance in a housing habitability case.[267] In California, workers who are pregnant can get disability benefits, and that is what first brought Patricia M. to the social service agency that helped her report her rape to the police.[268]
All of these farmworkers were careful to note, however, that abuses still occur. And the most marginalized of California's farmworkers, who are often young, recent arrivals, or indigenous workers, still face formidable barriers to accessing services and reporting abuses. As several cases in this report illustrate, even when a survivor is able to make contact with services, such contact does not guarantee that she will be able to seek or obtain redress.[269]
The experience of California farmworkers suggests that strong labor laws can help improve working conditions. The continued persistence of workplace abuses, however, demonstrates that more comprehensive changes—including federal immigration reform—are needed to transform an industry that has relied for too long on an unauthorized, marginalized workforce.
Particular Barriers for Unauthorized Immigrants
In the rare instances in which unauthorized farmworkers decide to bring claims under civil sexual harassment law, they face significant barriers. Legal services organizations that receive federal funding through the Legal Services Corporation (LSC) are prohibited, with some exceptions, from representing unauthorized immigrants,[270] and in many rural areas, LSC-funded organizations are the only legal service organizations that exist.
Furthermore, although US law is clear that Title VII and its provisions prohibiting sexual harassment apply to unauthorized workers, the Supreme Court's 2002 decision in Hoffman Plasticv. National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) has raised questions about which remedies are available to unauthorized workers. In Hoffman Plastic, the Supreme Court ruled that the NLRB had erred in awarding back pay (as defined under the NLRA) to an unauthorized worker wrongfully terminated for participating in a union organizing campaign.[271]
This decision has led some employers to argue that unauthorized workers are not entitled to other remedies beyond the specific remedy at issue in Hoffman Plastic, including those under Title VII, which prohibits sexual harassment. The decision has also emboldened employers to argue that inquiries into immigration status are relevant during discovery. For example, in Rivera v. Nibco, where immigrant workers brought claims of national origin discrimination under Title VII, the employer sought to inquire into their immigration status.[272] In a decision in the case, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals noted, "[T]he overriding national policy against discrimination would seem likely to outweigh any bar against the payment of back wages to unlawful immigrants in Title VII cases. Thus, we seriously doubt that Hoffman applies in such actions."[273] Although the court ultimately declined to decide this question, it did hold that the harm to employees would outweigh benefit to the employer if discovery into immigration status were allowed.[274] Other courts have similarly declined to extend Hoffman to analogous cases,[275] and the EEOC has sought and won protective orders prohibiting inquiries into immigration status.[276]
The issue, however, has not been decisively settled. A federal court in Washington held in 2010 that immigration status is relevant to determination of actual damages, although the court bifurcated the liability and statutory damages determinations to limit the chilling effect of the decision. Liz Chacko, a farmworker attorney in Pennsylvania, stated that even though she believes Hoffman Plastic does not apply to remedies under Title VII, in practice, "we can't guarantee [unauthorized workers] that the employer won't try to inquire into immigration status."Out of caution, she sometimes chooses not to seek certain remedies.[277]
Chacko further noted that if sexual harassment is severe, she can seek compensatory damages based on emotional distress to make up for the remedies she is not claiming. But this strategy does not work for clients who suffer less severe, though real, sexual harassment. Limited remedies not only reduce compensation for the survivor, of course, but also weaken the deterrent effect of the law on employers who engage in unlawful practices.
The EEOC: Positive Efforts but Limited Resources
EEOC investigators and attorneys display a wide range of understanding and sensitivity about different forms of discrimination—some truly do not understand the unique challenges faced by farmworkers and particularly indigenous farmworkers. As a result of this combination of factors, the EEOC process is cumbersome, inefficient, and often causes repeated re-traumatization and/or loss of interest among clients. Put bluntly, the administrative process, handled incorrectly, can sometimes be worse for complainants than if they had made no complaint at all.
—Megan Beaman, Attorney, California Rural Legal Assistance, May 1, 2011.
The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is charged with enforcing Title VII, along with other anti-discrimination laws, in the workplace. An employee who wants to bring a claim under Title VII must first file a complaint, or "charge of discrimination," with the EEOC. In general, the charge must be filed within 180 days of the last act of discrimination, a time period extended to 300 days if a state or local agency enforces a law that prohibits employment discrimination on the same basis.[278] Some cases are sent to mediation; others go directly to an investigator. If an investigator finds evidence of illegal discrimination, the EEOC seeks to reach a settlement with the employer. If the EEOC does not reach a settlement, the agency may bring a lawsuit on behalf of the employee. In deciding whether or not to bring a lawsuit, the EEOC considers such factors as the seriousness of the violation, the type of legal issues in the case, and the potential impact a lawsuit could have on workplace discrimination in general.[279]
If the investigator does not find evidence of illegal discrimination, or the EEOC decides not to bring a lawsuit, the employee is given a Right to Sue letter, and he or she may still personally sue the employer but must do so within 90 days.[280] The EEOC must issue a Right to Sue letter when 180 days have passed since the charge was first filed.[281]
In 1999 the EEOC began to prioritize assisting low-wage workers, including immigrant workers.[282] The EEOC has since taken significant steps toward addressing sexual harassment of low-income immigrant workers—including unauthorized workers—with some positive results, including in the two dozen sexual harassment lawsuits it has brought against agricultural and food industry employers. Several have resulted in significant settlements, while the one case that went to trial resulted in a verdict of over $1 million in favor of the farmworker.[283] These cases have generated some publicity, which increases the likelihood that farmworker survivors will discover they have a right to redress. Attorneys at several rural legal services organizations praised the EEOC for its efforts to reach farmworker communities and noted that the increased outreach seems to have led to more farmworkers being willing to bring lawsuits against their employers.[284]
The EEOC process also sometimes allows farmworkers to bring claims anonymously. In the lawsuit against Evans Fruit in Washington, the EEOC filed a "Jane Doe" complaint.[285] In the lawsuit against Knouse Foods in Pennsylvania, the lawsuit was brought as a Commissioner's Charge, so that the farmworkers who initially brought the claim to the EEOC did not have to be named.[286] The attorney who brought this case stated, "It afforded a level of protection that [the workers] wouldn't otherwise have had, especially to the worker who was still at the employer."[287]
At the same time, however, several farmworker advocates expressed some frustration with the EEOC and the way it processes and investigates claims. The basic steps required for filing a complaint under Title VII were clearly not designed for a rural and often isolated and migratory workforce. Given the distrust many farmworkers have of government authorities, as well as the fear many have of deportation, it can be difficult for a farmworker to even enter a federal building to file a charge with the EEOC. One woman stated, "I wanted to complain to an agency, but I don't have documents. They always want to see your ID."[288] Other than the office in Fresno, California, EEOC offices tend to be located in major urban areas nationwide. Farmworkers without cars can find it difficult to reach these offices, let alone take time away from work. William Tamayo, Regional Attorney with the EEOC, acknowledged that the location of EEOC offices is a problem and stated that if the agency had more funding, it would locate more offices in rural areas.[289] Antonio Flores, a community worker for the Indigenous Farmworker Program at California Rural Legal Assistance, further noted that EEOC staff cannot simply sit in their offices, because "indigenous people will not go knock on their doors."[290]
Should a farmworker overcome all the barriers to filing a charge, she will encounter a system for processing charges that can last several years. Survivors often find it difficult to understand the EEOC's enforcement capabilities. An attorney described how one client was frustrated and wondered, "Why aren't they putting him in jail? Why aren't they acting faster?"[291] The EEOC generally will not issue a Right to Sue letter before 180 days after the charge is filed. If the EEOC decides to investigate a case, it generally takes at least six months for an investigator to be assigned to the case, and that is the best case scenario for expedited cases. The investigation itself can take anywhere from six months to several years. One attorney acknowledged that the EEOC has a tremendous workload, but felt that the length of time it takes to complete an investigation is "terrible," especially for migrant workers, stating further, "We lose track of our clients, they lose faith in the system, they think, 'What's the point of staying in touch?' It's a big, big problem."[292] The delays can also adversely affect the viability of a class action in situations where many workers suffer sexual harassment, as it makes it more difficult to locate witnesses and claimants, and memories fade.[293]
The quality of investigations also ranges widely. While some attorneys felt investigations had been carried out rigorously, others reported encountering investigators who lacked sensitivity, with regard to both the cultural background of the survivors (especially with indigenous workers) and the sensitive subject at issue. One woman who had been traumatized by the sexual harassment she experienced reported that the investigation had been "very stressful" and that the investigator had only interviewed her by telephone.[294] Telephone interviews are particularly difficult for survivors of rape. Attorneys further reported that some investigators are not sensitive to the unique challenges farmworkers face. In one case, an investigator tried to do interviews of witnesses at the workplace. Not surprisingly, "when she approached people at work, they said, 'I don't know anything, I'm not a witness.'"[295] That same investigator resisted doing interviews outside of work hours from nine to five, even though farmworkers are more available before 7 a.m. and after 7 p.m., their typical work day.[296] Some attorneys reported that supposedly bilingual Spanish-speaking investigators did not speak Spanish fluently and had even less capacity to interview indigenous workers with limited Spanish proficiency. In one case, an investigator grew so frustrated with an indigenous farmworker that he reportedly began pushing the client, declaring, "You're contradicting yourself! This doesn't make any sense!"[297]
When settlement offers are made, "the pressure to settle low and early is intense."[298] One attorney expressed concern that when cases settle at the mediation stage of the EEOC process, it adversely affects the rights of other workers who might potentially have formed a class for a class action. The settlement offers are also often extremely low: "What she was offered was a joke; it didn't even pay for a week's work."[299] But given the financial precariousness of a farmworker's life, many "end up taking the first $1,000 offered to them."[300]
The damages available to farmworkers are also statutorily limited. Title VII places caps on compensatory and punitive damages at $50,000 for employers with 101 employees or fewer, a figure that has been unchanged since 1991.[301] These caps can affect how seriously employers take these charges.[302] A worker who brings a claim under state and federal law can often seek greater damages, but there are several states, including four in the south, that do not have state laws prohibiting sexual harassment.[303] In some states, like Pennsylvania, the law specifically exempts agricultural workers.[304]
The Terra Linda case is a good example of how long and difficult a civil harassment claim can be and how contractors can complicate the issue of liability. In 2006 two women filed claims against Terra Linda Farms, a grower, and Green Valley Ag, Inc., a farm labor contractor, with the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH), alleging sexual harassment and retaliation by a supervisor working for Terra Linda Farms. In 2008 the Department of Fair Employment and Housing Commission (Commission) issued a decision, after a three-day evidentiary hearing, ordering Terra Linda Farms to pay $110,000, deciding that although the women were employees of Green Valley, Terra Linda Farms was a joint employer. Terra Linda Farms appealed, and in 2009 a California superior court affirmed the Commission decision. Terra Linda Farms appealed again, and in January 2012 the Fifth Appellate District Court of California issued a decision upholding the superior court decision.[305] In all, it took almost six years before the women received this decision, and as this report went to publication, they had yet to receive the money awarded to them.[306]

Best Times to Visit Dallas – Fort Worth
The best time to visit Dallas – Fort Worth is between September and November, when the temperatures aren't overwhelmingly hot, the tourist traffic has died down and the Texas State Fair is in full swing. Although the months between March and May are equally comfortable temperature-wise (and blooming flowers further sweeten the season), the Cowboys football season can drive hotel prices up, especially in the Metroplex areas. Despite temperatures in the 90s and high humidity levels, summer marks Dallas – Fort Worth's high season, so expect hotel costs to climb. You will find deals between December and February, but don't expect exceptionally warm weather. The DFW area experiences all four seasons, with wintertime highs resting in the 50s and low 60s.
Temperature (°F)
Precipitation (in)
June - August
"Stifling," "moist," "oppressive," and "long" are common adjectives for a summer in Dallas and Fort Worth. During these months, temperatures are known to hover in the mid-90s, and high humidity levels keep the climate teetering on the edge of unbearable. Still, summer is the most popular time to visit DFW area, so you can expect room rates to climb alongside the temps. If you do visit during the summer, you can escape the heat by visiting one of the area's museums.
Key Events:
September - November
Autumn marks a sweet spot for DFW tourism: The summer crowds wane and the temperatures drop into the much-more-manageable 70s and 80s. Come November, thermometers will most likely read in the 60s. And with hotels cooling down after the high season, discounts are easier to come by.
Key Events:
December - February
Not many people imagine snow on a Texas landscape; however, the Metroplex usually receives a few days of snowfall each winter. Average daytime highs usually rest in the 50s and 60s, but below-freezing temps aren't unheard of. If you don't mind bundling up, you can save big on a wintertime DFW vacation.
Key Events:
March - May
Like the fall, spring in Dallas – Fort Worth ushers in average highs in the 70s and 80s, along with a lot of rain. But the threat of drizzle doesn't stop football fans from descending on the Metroplex to watch the Dallas Cowboys play. If the team has had a good season, expect hotel prices to be higher and game tickets to be in high demand. If you're not in town to see a game, plan your visit around one of the season's many festivals.

trip to bahamas
Re: trip to bahamas
I made the same plan several years ago, from Calif. Weather kept me in Austin for a week.
You will want to arrange for water survival gear. I was going to rent the stuff in Fla. a LOT cheaper than buying. I think I got a radio station license from the FCC for the plane because I was leaving the
contiguous US. I'm really sorry I can't expound on what a great time I had in the islands :-(.
Fortunately, I had a pretty good list of "Plan B"s. Austin being one of them.
It should be a great way to spend a vacation!
Re: trip to bahamas
Im sorry to say that I only got as far as Austin, due to really horrible weather in the gulf states. Spent a good hour in solid but smooth IFR prior to Austin. Spent a week there with relatives.
I was in my 182 with long range tanks.
I started my planning with Sectionals overlapping on 3 of my living room walls and a pair of VFR Wall Planning Charts, taped together. Stretched a string from Point A to Point B then studied the charts for Restricted areas, MOAs, terrain, airports for refuel & overnight stops. AOPAs airport handbook came in pretty handy. I did two overnight stops enroute to Austin. The first was due to a very late start on day one.
Through ads I read in assorted flying magazines, I wasn't concerned about a lack of fuel in the Bahamas. There are several private/restricted airstrips on the islands. I don't recall making any plans for customs...I DO recall meeting with the Customs guys at Tucson on the way back because I stopped at and spent a couple of nights in Jaurez, MX. (They have a really nice and not busy airport there). I had to buy a Customs sticker for the plane... about $25. That was supposed to be done BEFORE leaving or entering the US. Filing an international flight plan should have been done also...as I was told while re-entering the US.
I was planning on 3 to 5 overnighters, depending on my departure times, winds and how I felt about it.
I was going to rent water survival gear in or around Miami.
I had made no actual plans/reservations in the islands as we were "winging" the whole trip.
I'd call my nearest airport Customs office and ask about a current year sticker and requirements for checking in (and out?) with Customs, both in the US and the Bahamas. I'd then talk to Flight Service well ahead of time about exactly how to file the proper flight plan prior to leaving the US, even though no prior permission is required for private/non-commercial flights.
Re: trip to bahamas
Suggest you go to following web site and order the Bahamas Pilot Handbook. I have made trips to the Bahamas from Dallas, TX over the past 15 years and found this book to be the best guide. It will answer all your questions.
Re: trip to bahamas
I flew back into the US from Mexico, once. I was directed to taxi to the customs parking area and stay in the plane. I was approached by two huge unhappy uniformed fellows. I was asked if I had anything to declare. MY response..."YES< everything in the plane!" They didn't seem to care about much other than fruits & veggies.
I had a couple apples, banannas and grapes in a cooler that were all purchased in Calif. They gave me the choice of eating the apples on the spot or throwing them away. The banannas & grapes didn't seem to be a problem.
Apparantly, the concern is bugs & disease.

Background InformationA plug-in is a type of component framework that is used in Web development to display custom content within a browser. For many years, the Microsoft OLE technology (sometimes referred to as ActiveX) has enabled the creation of programmable elements for displaying video, sound, and other alternative data types. Microsoft designed this OLE technology so that it can be reused by other technologies. ActiveX technologies are used by standalone programs as well as by Web-based content and programs. In the online space, ActiveX can be used to achieve results similar to those obtained with Netscape style plug-ins.
The foundation of online content is an HTML document, which is generally viewed in a browser. In the HTML document, custom content can be incorporated either by using the W3C HTML 4.0 recommendation's OBJECT tag or by using the Netscape EMBED tag. Internet Explorer supports the use of ActiveX technology through either the OBJECT or the EMBED tag.
Netscape-Style Plug-ins in WindowsOn the Windows platform, plug-ins are constructed as standard Win32 dynamic-link libraries (DLLs) that rely on a series of predefined entry points to expose functionality. They are given a window handle (HWND) by their container, which they then subclass to receive user interaction and operating system notifications through Windows messages.
ActiveX ControlsActiveX controls are lightweight, reusable Component Object Model (COM) components. They are given a site (in the form of a COM interface pointer) by their container, and they use COM methods and interfaces to communicate with the container.
ActiveX controls are smaller, simplified versions of OLE controls (as defined by the OLE Controls 96 specification). ActiveX controls do not necessarily have an HWND.
OBJECT and EMBED TagsThe OBJECT tag is part of the W3C HTML 4.0 recommendation. The EMBED tag was introduced in Netscape Navigator. Internet Explorer uses ActiveX technologies to support both the OBJECT and EMBED tags; other browser and platform combinations use the Netscape plug-in technology to control components.
An advantage of the OBJECT tag over the EMBED tag is that it supports Internet Component Download, which is an operating system service for downloading and installing software from Web sites on the Internet and intranets. This service enables a software provider or Webmaster to "package" components and place them on Web servers for download. When users visit the Web site, Internet Component Download enables their browser to download and install the programs. This process can occur without the user having to restart the browser.
RecommendationWhether you run Internet Explorer or a competitive browser, planning how to migrate to the latest release of a browser is critical. When you migrate to Internet Explorer 5.5 SP2 or Internet Explorer 6, determine in advance whether you need to convert existing Netscape-style plug-ins to ActiveX technology. You also need to identify and solve migration issues, such as incompatible plug-ins, before you attempt to migrate from your current browser to Internet Explorer 5.5 SP2 or Internet Explorer 6. You may need to redesign any Web pages that do not function properly.
Customers who want to upgrade to Internet Explorer 5 SP2 or Internet Explorer 6 and continue to provide functionality that is similar to existing Netscape-style plug-ins can use any of the following methods:

Comment: it's Schilling -- and he's just kind of famous (Score 0) 908 908
First off, dude's name is Curt Schilling, not Shilling. 38 is a significant number -- it was the # he wore on his jersey when he pitched his teams to two world series titles.
Not that his time in MLB is pertinent, but come on -- at least identify the guy correctly so people know who the hell you're talking about.

In a small number of people infected with HIV, the virus is naturally suppressed without medical treatment – and we might be closer to understanding why. They may carry high quantities of a protein that disrupts viral replication in cells.
Called APOBEC3G, or "A3" for short, the protein sabotages reverse transcription, the process HIV relies on for its replication. This process involves the virus transcribing its singe-stranded RNA genome into double-stranded DNA that is incorporated into the cell's genome. A3 usually stops dormant viruses in the human genome, called endogenous retroviruses, from reawakening and causing infections.
Richard D'Aquila at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago and his colleagues at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee, took blood samples from seven "controllers" – the name given to people with HIV who have kept their infections in check without drugs. They compared the samples with blood from 11 "non-controllers" who must use antiretroviral therapy to suppress the virus.
The cytoplasm in blood cells from the controllers, who account for just 1 per cent of all people infected with HIV, contained up to twice as much A3 as normal, suggesting this is a key factor in keeping the virus in check.
Natural enemies
D'Aquila says that the protective effect of A3 makes sense because, in non-controllers, HIV goes to great lengths to eradicate the protein. "The virus's first move is to get rid of its natural enemy, A3," he says.
If a treatment could preserve levels of the saboteur protein, this would enable many more people than at present to control the virus without medication.
Beginning antiretroviral therapy at an earlier stage after infection may be one way to do this. If the therapy keeps levels of the virus low enough to prevent it totally depleting a person's A3, then the protein may retain the upper hand over the virus as the infection continues.
This could help to explain how a baby and at least 14 adults infected with HIV were shown earlier this year to have "functional cures" thanks to very early treatment.
Boosted levels of A3 may be beneficial for another reason: the protein can kill drug-resistant mutants of HIV, because it sabotages all reverse-transcribed viral material, irrespective of what mutations it carries. D'Aquila says because A3 can recognise dormant endogenous retroviruses, it can recognise and block other viruses too.
Elite controllers
"[A3] can't be evaded by viral mutation, because it simply recognises reverse-transcribed DNA," says D'Aquila.
In the next stage of the research, D'Aquila and his colleagues will test whether early therapy does indeed preserve levels of A3. They will also hunt for drugs that boost natural levels of the protein.
"We already know that A3 disrupts HIV," says Asier Sáez Cirión of the Pasteur Institute in Paris, France, and an authority on mechanisms of resistance to HIV. "Although this study shows a correlation between A3 levels and suppression of HIV, further work is needed to explore just how important it is for controllers," he says.
The mechanism by which controllers keep HIV in check is different from that of an even tinier number of people called "elite controllers". This group keep their viral counts consistently as low as 50 viral copies per millilitre compared with 2000 in "controllers".
Many elite controllers may rely on defects in CCR5, a protein on the surface of blood cells that acts as a kind of doorknob for HIV. If the protein is defective, HIV cannot get into cells to infect them, so people remain immune to the virus.

OFAC: Beyonce and Jay-Z vacation in Cuba was part of an 'educational exchange'
According to the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), the Beyonce and Jay-Z trip to Cuba that just happened to coincide with their wedding anniversary was not a vacation, but instead an "educational exchange" with the communist dictatorship-run island. This revelation should allay many of the fears expressed by some that this extremely wealthy and famous couple who are personal friends of President Obama were in Cuba whooping it up like rich tourists enjoying parties, drinks, food, cigars, and accommodations that are denied to typical Cubans by the government's apartheid policies.
Since now we know this trip was "educational," it explains what was really going in many of the photographs of Beyonce and Jay-Z in Cuba:
I don't know about the rest of you, but I feel a lot better about this trip now.

How fast can one fall in love?
What would be a normal time to actually fall in love with someone?
How long did it take you to fall in love?
What abnormal time?
Most Helpful Opinion
When you fall in love with another person you want to spend your whole lifetime with them. It's the ultimate in a relationship, and unfortunately the word "love" is used extremely loosely. I think there's a difference in "I love you" and I'm in love with you." What happens suddenly is that when first seeing and/or meeting a person of the opposite sex you can get attracted to them almost immediately. After your first time together you can be totally infatuated with that person and actually start going out together. You can like that person very much after than first time out together and the chemistry can really flow between each other. But to fall in love takes more bonding and two people have to really get to know each other before they can trust each other completely and commit their lives to each other which is what happens when they fall in love. So there's no normal time to fall in love because each situation and circumstance is different as well as people are all totally different. It's like asking, what would be the normal time before you'd be willing to die for your partner. By my definitions, I'm not in love yet.
I belive that you have more then 1 love in your life. relationships are ment to teach us something, and I belive we will come across a few people we have the most strongest connection to, but it doesn't mean it will last forever though. .
What Guys Said 2
What Girls Said 6
I don't think that there is a normal time span in which one can fall in love. It depends on the person and with everyone being different it varies. When I knew that I loved my ex-boyfriend we were together maybe 3 or 4 months. Even though we are not together now I still have love for him and it's been like 5 or 6 years. You know if you truly love someone and you don't need to have a time span to really be sure that it's love.
It took me less than a day! But I fell for someone I had known for years, I just never said to anyone that I was attracted to him. I falsely thought years ago that he looked like he was trouble...Instead the guys I DID go for were all losers and one evil man I married were all the bad guys! it turns out my guy friend was the total opposite of what I thought he'd be like. Recently He made a Facebook profile and since I had just seen him a few weeks ago at the Xmas party I wrote him telling him simply that I wish I would have jumped him at the Xmas party, but that I was too chicken..He wrote back and and said "don't be afraid, I'm not!" He told me that he always thought I was cute but I always had a boyfriend and he didn't think I'd go for him. The second he knew I was interested he made sure I wasn't getting away! He knows what kind of person I am and how I treat my boyfriends, one ex is his close friend-who he calls a dumb @ss for being dumb and losing me, and the ex that just cheated on me, he said that guy's lose is his gain! After we talked most of the day & said G'night (online/phone because he is in CA and I am in AR...he is moving back to AR in a month)...I thought my God I LOVE HIM! and I was not being a silly "girl" because the next day he already told me that he loved me too! I told him "I take that word very seriously, so you better mean it if you say it to me." He said "I mean it." Now we are just counting the days until he get's here, talking at night until we are almost asleep on the phone. We are both over 40 years old so it's not we are being goofy kids, we both know exactly what kind of person we need to be with and what we will not tolerate. We only regret not saying anything to each other years ago! But I think the things we had to go through before getting together will only make us appreciate each other all the more! He's already sent three different Valentine's presents in the mail, he doesn't want me to miss Valentine's Day, he is so sweet. In his Valentine's box I sent my favorite T-shirt I like to sleep in so he can smell me, In his card I asked him to send me one of his...We are as if two Pepe Le Pews found each other! xoxoxo
you know something I know am young but I can also give advice love doesn't have time you can start loveing a person since the first day you meet them but notice later on..or maybe when you carry a relationship together for a long time you`ll end up falling in love..But what takes time is to show the love you feel which you should do since the very first moment you have that feeling you have to share it well hope you get the answer you wanted good luck.
Look at it carefully - "Fall in love".
Do you ever plan a fall ?
It just happens when its meant to be.
So, there isn't any set time period.
Infact you'll never know when you are love-smitten.
A hint that you are in love is that everything around will look like a fairy tale, magical, you suddenly start to love your life, yourself, you feel a new kind of energy that you never felt before.
This is love - no doubt !

When you're looking for a fun way to spend some time with your friends and family, you could attempt something outrageous like forming a ska band, auditioning on a reality talent show as a dramatic dance team or try your hand at a ten-person tandem skydive. Alternatively, go for a slightly more relaxed activity and save up to 63% on a cheetah experience for two or four people with Cheetah Experience.
Pay R99 for a Cheetah Experience for two people, valued at R200
Pay R149 for a Cheetah Experience for four people, valued at R400
An organisation dedicated to conserving endangered species and focussing specially on the cheetah, Cheetah Experience is the place to be for a jaw-dropping, hands-on and heart-warming experience. To ensure that every cheetah feels loved and right at home, the centre is practically a replica of their natural environment, giving the cheetahs ample space to play and practice for the kitty comrades.
For your See, Sense and Touch experience, you'll start with a quick introduction to the dos and don'ts of being near wild cats, as well as some other helpful information. Once you've got the low-down, you'll be given the opportunity to touch and photograph cheetahs, interact with lions, caracals and other cubs when available. To provide even more purrfect photo opportunities, you'll also be taken really close to the adult animal enclosures – because no photo album is quite complete without photos of lions romping about. Whether you're a fan of the big cats or you're just looking for a literal and metaphorical walk on the wild side, Cheetah Experience can provide.

|Effective: 5/1/1982
SSM 701–05: Testing Accommodations for Students with Disabilities
To facilitate federally mandated testing accommodations for qualified students with disabilities
The Rehabilitation Act of 1973, 29 United States Code §§ 701–796
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) (1990, 2008), 42 United States Code § 12101 et seq.
Disability Resource Center
The process of determining reasonable and appropriate testing accommodations for qualified students with disabilities is a collaborative one between the Disability Resource Center (DRC), faculty, and the qualified student. It is the responsibility of the DRC to determine student eligibility for accommodations, to recommend reasonable and appropriate accommodations for each class, and to facilitate approved accommodations in consultation with the student and faculty. It is the responsibility of faculty to determine the course standards and to design appropriate methods to measure student knowledge. It is the responsibility of the student to request accommodations in a timely manner, to ensure that DRC official testing forms are delivered to or received by faculty, to inform them that certain individual accommodations may be necessary, and to communicate any changes to the DRC.
Students must provide required disability documentation to the Disability Resource Center (DRC) clearly supporting the need for testing accommodations. The assigned DRC professional will evaluate the documentation, determine eligibility for testing accommodations and meet with students on an individual basis to discuss reasonable and appropriate options. The DRC arranges and implements testing accommodations for qualified students with disabilities, which may include:
|The purpose of accommodation is equal access, not advantage. In making recommendations for extended testing time, the DRC professional staff consider both student need for a reasonable time extension and fairness to the other students in the class. For this reason, untimed testing is not considered a reasonable accommodation.
The DRC uses official forms to authorize testing, contact faculty, and confirm testing arrangements.
Instructors may choose to administer their own tests, quizzes, and exams. They should consult with the DRC office on their campus regarding appropriate accommodations and test administration procedures.
The DRC will administer academic examinations requiring low distraction environments, alternative print format, readers, interpreters, scribes, or assistive technology if faculty feel they cannot provide these services themselves. However, the DRC may not be able to provide scribes or readers in some technical fields (e.g., some foreign language, mathematics, science, and computer courses). Consequently, faculty may need to provide qualified personnel (e.g., graduate assistant, TA, or otherwise qualified student) to administer these examinations at the DRC or another approved site.
See the DRC Web site for detailed information and procedures for accessing services and accommodations available for qualified students at specific ASU campuses and sites.

truthfully you signed and acknowledged a legally binding contract for your aircard and then lost your aircard while u did report ur aircard lost does NOT let you off the hook for the remainder of ur contract or ur monthly service fee while it is unfortunate that u did lose it doesnt circumvent sprint position to let you off the hook as sprint did NOT lose the device you did my friend. just buy a cheap aircard to put on the account or pay the legally binding termination fee.enough said

When the New Reform Congregation [now Temple Kol Tikvah in Woodland Hills] was established in 1984, Debbie was our chazzan for 3 years. She responded, and the congregation was thrilled, as truly "the old dreamed new dreams and the youth saw visions." Our shul was "alive to the sound of music" to Debbie's presence and her music. Debbie gave voice to the voiceless through her voice and her passion for justice.
Prof. Stanley Chyet z'l' of Hebrew Union College was a poet and reflected thusly:
what is that poets do
they sing
wind and insects
the substance of their songs
and maybe of themselves
they wander lost
among flaming riverbanks
at dusk their voices rise
above the howling winds
above the din of insects
their voices rise above tall marsh trees
above tree tops their voices
fling out into space
into the arteries of creation.
Debbie was our musical poet…but not ours alone…to our movement….to the Jewish people…to the world. May she rest in peace as she teaches the angels above to sing songs of healing…a Mishaberach to you, Debbie.
