Why are over one billion people hungry in a world in which increases in agricultural production have consistently outstripped demographic growth? The objective of the seminar is to understand how governments have sought to combat hunger and malnutrition; why they have so dramatically failed ; and how law and governance are relevant to what can be done about this. The seminar shall build on the issues addressed in the mandate of the lecturer as the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the right to food, and it will be closely connected to contemporary discussions at international level (see www.srfood.org). We will discuss a range of topics linked in particular to the impacts of globalization on the right to food, including international trade, investment in agriculture, the role of transnational corporations in the agrifood sector, and intellectual property rights in agriculture; we will also address the threat of climate change to food security and the debate on the shift to sustainable agriculture ; as well as the role of institutional mechanisms aimed at protecting the right to adequate food and the recent reform of global governance of food security. While the focus will be on hunger and undernourishment in developing countries, the seminar will also address the impacts on the South of policies in the North (in the areas of agriculture, intellectual property rights, trade and investment, and food aid).
The seminar shall be of interest to students working on the links between law and development and on the challenge posed to governance by economic globalization; it can also be seen as a case study on the challenges facing the implementation of a particular human right, the right to adequate food ; finally, it will provide an entry point into the United Nations system and into the relationships between the United Nations agencies and other organizations such as the World Trade Organization or the international financial institutions. Many of the topics addressed are highly politicized and polemical. The seminar will serve to confront diverse viewpoints, and it will seek to provide the students with the tools he or she needs to form his or her own opinion. Although the approach combines law and economics, as the aim of the seminar is to understand the legal and institutional factors in the political economy of food systems, no background in economics is required, and none of the readings suggested use formalized language.
The seminar will be organized in order to combine a genealogical approach (asking where hunger comes from, beginning in the postcolonial era of the 1960s) with an analytical approach (decomposing the food system from producer to end consumer through commodity buyers, food processors and retailers, and examining the role of institutions and governance in combating hunger and malnutrition). A number of external guests will be invited to contribute to the seminar to discuss emerging issues and the current policy agenda.
The students will be evaluated on the basis of their participation in the class on the basis of prepared readings and questions to be prepared in advance of the seminar, on a rotating basis (2-3 students per seminar).

The Cradle Will Fallby Mary Higgins Clark
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
A minor road accident landed county prosecutor Katie DeMaio in Westlake Hospital. That night, from her window, she thought she saw a man load a woman's body into the trunk of a car...or was it just a sleeping pill induced nightmare? At work the next day, Katie began investigating a suicide that looked more like murder. Initial evidence pointed elsewhere, but medical examiner Richard Carroll saw a trail leading to Dr. Edgar Highley. He suspected that the famous doctor's work "curing" infertile women was more than controversial — that it was deceitful, depraved, and often deadly. But before Richard could tell Katie his fears, she left the office for the weekend and an appointment for routine surgery...in Dr. Highley's operating room.

Two of her novels were made into feature films, Where Are the Children? and A Stranger Is Watching. Many of her other works, novels and short stories, were made into television films.
Mary Higgins Clark's fame as a writer was achieved against heavy odds. Born and raised in the Bronx, her father died when she was eleven and her mother struggled to raise her and her two brothers. On graduating from high school, she went to secretarial school, so she could get a job and help with the family finances. After three years of working in an advertising agency, travel fever seized her. For the year 1949, she was a stewardess on Pan American Airlines' international flights. "My run was Europe, Africa and Asia," she recalls. "I was in a revolution in Syria and on the last flight into Czechoslovakia before the Iron Curtain went down." After flying for a year, she married a neighbor, Warren Clark, nine years her senior, whom she had known since she was 16. Soon after her marriage, she started writing short stories, finally selling her first to Extension Magazine in 1956 for $100.
Left a young widow by the death of her husband from a heart attack in 1964, Mary Higgins Clark went to work writing radio scripts and, in addition, decided to try her hand at writing books. Every morning, she got up at 5 AM and wrote until 7 AM, when she had to get her five children ready for school. Her very first book was a biographical novel about George Washington, inspired by a radio series she was writing, "Portrait of a Patriot." Originally published in 1969 by Meredith Press with the title Aspire to the Heavens, it was discovered years later by a Washington family member and re-issued in 2002 with the title, Mount Vernon Love Story.
Mary Higgins Clark's first suspense novel, Where Are the Children? was published by SimonandSchuster in 1975. It became a bestseller and marked a turning point in her life and career. It is currently in its 75th edition in paperback and was re-issued in hardcover as a SimonandSchuster classic.
Freed to catch up on things she always wanted to do, she entered Fordham University at Lincoln Center, graduating summa cum laude in 1979 with a B.A. in philosophy. She was awarded an honorary doctorate from Fordham University in 1998. She is a past trustee of Fordham University and Providence College and currently on the Board of Governors of the Hackensack College Medical Center. She has nineteen honorary doctorates.
She is #1 fiction bestselling author in France, where she received the Grand Prix de Literature Policière in 1980 and The Literary Award at the 1998 Deauville Film Festival. In 2000, she was named by the French Minister of Culture "Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters."
Mary Higgins Clark was chosen by Mystery Writers of America as Grand Master of the 2000 Edgar Awards. An annual Mary Higgins Clark Award sponsored by SimonandSchuster, to be given to authors of suspense fiction writing in the Mary Higgins Clark tradition, was launched by Mystery Writers of America during Edgars week in April 2001. She was the 1987 president of Mystery Writers of America and, for many years, served on their Board of Directors. In May 1988, she was Chairman of the International Crime Congress.
Active in Catholic affairs, Mary Higgins Clark was made a Dame of the Order of St. Gregory the Great, a papal honor. She is also a Dame of Malta and a Lady of the Holy Sepulcher of Jerusalem. She received the Catholic Big Sisters Distinguished Service Award in 1998 and the Graymoor Award from the Franciscan Friars in 1999. Honors she has received include the Gold Medal of Honor from the American-Irish Historical Society (1993), the Spirit of Achievement Award from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University (1994), the National Arts Club's first Gold Medal in Education (1994), the Horatio Alger Award (1997), the Outstanding Mother of the Year Award (1998), the Bronx Legend Award (1999), the 2001 Ellis Island Medal of Honor, the Passionists' Ethics in Literature Award (2002), the first Reader's Digest Author of the Year Award (2002), the Christopher Life Achievement Award (2003), the Ellis Island Family Heritage Award (2008), the Carol M. Reilly Award (2008) and the International Mystery Writers' First Lady of Mystery Award (2008). She is an active advocate and participant in literacy programs.
In 1996, Mary Higgins Clark married John Conheeney, the retired Chairman and CEO of Merrill-Lynch Futures. They live in Saddle River, New Jersey. Between them, they have seventeen grandchildren - Mary's six and John's eleven.

I've been going around looking at all these guys everywhere, and we all have these aliases we all have our monikers or pseudo names –Style, Mystery, Tyler Durden, etc. – but when it comes to life is it really good to have to create a new us in order to be cool? Pick Up shouldn't mean creating an alternate you but creating a better you. Pick Up isn't creating a fake you. I've been thinking about this for a minute and the more I think about it the more I hate the concept of pseudo names in pick up.
The center of natural game with women is confidence (self-love, self-assurance, security, etc.) how can being confident under only your pseudo name help? You need true confidence not confidence in someone you leave reality to be. Whenever I see people who refer to themselves as something other than their true name in person (well if everyone calls you a name it is your name, I understand nick names) I immediately realize they are trying to hide themselves and be someone else. This shows an immediate lack of confidence in yourself.
The best most congruent person you can be is a confident version of yourself (if you aren't confident already). Lose the pseudo name guys, end the monikers, and fake names, gain true confidence in yourself not in some other "world" or some other self. I petition to end any support of creating a fake version of you to get women, a job, a friend or any other thing, experience, etc. Fuck that, improve yourself, don't act improved, be improved. Build your confidence and create a better version of your actual self not a fake one. Be the person people like or women like rather than fake it, make it.
Comment here if to petition against these bull shit fake names so a guy can "pick up chicks."
If you want confidence instead of a nick name check out my Now Available: True Core Self-Confidence and Happiness Program – This Program is dedicated to instilling all these same concepts plus much more in yourself, rather than a false personality let you be the most attractive guy with your confidence in the area!
Peace and Love
I never thought it would come to this,but this is a crack of shit.
There's absolutely nothing wrong with pseudonyms.That's like saying ppl should do away with nicknames because they're false and turning you into something you're not.
Pure bullshit!
The reason behind PUA's using pseudonyms is to cultivate a bit of intrigue behind the character.
Nothing intriguing in telling a girl your name is Jim.
But telling a girl your name is Twizzler,she will instantly be inquisitive,curious,intrigued as to the meaning or how you got that name.Pure attraction material that you just cannot garner with a name like Jim,Bob,Steven,etc.
So you failed miserably with this one.You might as well align yourself with PUAHate and other anti-PUA movements.
This was a total nonsensical article.
How? I believe in true core confidence. Do you not believe in gaining core confidence?
You believe in faking it? How is that good? I advertise being yourself not someone else, I don't hate PUA I hate acting like you are someone else. I hate idolizing PUAs, everyone I come across that needs a fake name to get girls means he doesn't have game.
You don't need gimmicks to get chicks, a fake name is just another gimmick.
I also mentioned nick names and how if you have been getting called that forever than that is your name. Did you not read that? I'm against you renaming yourself to get women, I am however for self-improvement and making yourself that man rather than having to recreate another. Would you rather Kenny be good with woman or your pseudo name?
Would you like to have all these experiences with women or would you like your pseudo name? Your fake you. YOUR I HAD TO FAKE BEING HIM TO GET GIRLS.
You seem to believe re-inventing yourself for women means inventing a whole new you, I believe re-inventing yourself can be a complete overhaul of actually improving you. I learned this by me faking I was Poeticly Skuac and hiding me as Victor, well Poetic had a lot more confidence then Vic. You need to be yourself and get good with women.
Sorry to piss you off man, just my standpoint. It's just my concept of me believing in becoming attractive by making attractive behavior a part of you, rather than you renaming yourself to become attractive. When you read The Game even he realized Neil didn't have confidence but Style did.
Peace and Love
Saying a girl would be "instantly inquisitive, curious, or intrigued" by a pseudo name or nickname is like saying raccoons are attracted to shiny shit. So it all depends on what your looking for.
Personally, I prefer to use real names. There is a level of intimacy with a real name that I favor and truly believe makes for a more passionate interaction on any level. Even if it is one casual evening I guarantee hearing your own Mother given name out loud instead of "oh Twizzler" will make for a much more enriching night. Character is what is intriguing, NOT the cover story.
"What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet." I don't know, but try calling it "shit" and it might make you not want to stop and smell the flowers.
Thank You I'm Glad someone got what I was trying to say!
In our PUA-culture I never experienced guys faking their names towards girls. I do not understand why I would try to…
I think we should differentiate between face-to-face interaction and online life tho. Pseudonyms and fake names might be applied to protect ourself from the society who's not able to judge the activities properly. Think about applying for a "normal" job and how it could influence recruiters. In my opinion I would rather develop myself behind the scenes using pseudonyms and tell people my proper name in real-life.
What do you think about this guys?
I'm talking about all the guys who make up these different names re-invent themselves to get women. I've met a few who have used fake names. I would rather develop myself than another name. As I said I learned this from my own experiences, using a fake name makes no sense. A lot of guys can walk up to a girl under their fake made up name but not real name, this is a problem.
This to me is wrong, it's the same issue I have with routines, I have ran into guys who have NO skills with women but can run a routine in the right circumstances. Being good with women is about social adjustment skills and being a social chameleon. Being the guy a woman needs right now.
Learn to be yourself and get the girl, that is my style not learn to fake being someone else to get the girl. I don't believe in dishonesty when it comes to getting women (name, stories, or otherwise) but that is just me.
Peace and Love
I think most of the time pseudo names are used just for online posting. If you are a PUA and dont want some chick you banged doing a search for your name and find a field report and details of the sex you just had, then a pseudo name is not that bad of an idea. Also… am I mistaking something here… dont you call your self "Poeticallyskuac" or something like that… wouldnt that be a pseudo name. Every one knows Styles real name, I dont recall him ever introducing himself as Style when I read The Game. I could be wrong.
I think you have some great stuff on body language and seem very knowledgeable about it but developing natural game isnt easy. Pseudo names are like training wheels, and I feel that canned openers are the same.
There are guys with absolutely no game that need to develop a persona which over time they become one with. I think you need to understand that you cant just tell someone to be confident, believe in your self, and bam.. its done.
Its a process for some and pseudo names are a part of the process.
Great way to put it.
Another reason why pseudonyms are key to pickup.
I've been a member of the Master PUA forum since Feb' 2008,I'm now a leader/moderator on there.My obvious pseudonym is Socialkenny and K-Loc.When I post lay reports on the forum,they're obviously posted with those names(even on my blog).
Don't lie, you aren't a mod dog and we are both leaders on the forum (just threw you love on the forum by the way on your compliment thread, don't worry I am considered one of the top posters by both the members and the mods so that upped your video watch count). I've also been a member of the same forum since Sept of 07.
That is also your user name, besides that you contain your real name, you missed the point. I'm talking about guys that would want to be called Poet, or some word that really has a powerful underlying meaning to a woman (which is why it creates bs interest). You are talking about your Username on a forum dude. NOT when you walk up and say hey my Name Social. You introduce yourself as Kenny right?
I am not comparing your user name to a pseudo name, I'm talking about fake ass bull shit names to make you sound impressive when you talk to a girl. Learn to be impressive fuck a fake name.
Peace and Love
Everyone knows Styles real name NOW, most of those PUAs back in the day only referred to them as their alter name bs. Poeticly Skuac is one of my Monikers has been for over a decade now. I have that name on many forums, and it's my user name. However when you meet me in person you meet me, VICTOR, not my Poetic bullshit name.
It is my firm belief that if you are ashamed of your actions and can't state them publicly than you aren't congruent with who you are. If you are a confident man not out fucking people over then you have no problem publicizing. We all have disappointing actions we've done in the past, but if you get to the point where you need a fake name because you've lied to, fucked, or manipulated that many women I'd say you have zero true confidence. If you need a fake name to get laid you got some serious shit to learn about what natural game is. The name has nothing to do with the package and the package is what gets you laid.
You can work on yourself, you don't have to work on your alter self. That is my point, fuck the training wheels, fuck the canned openers. Somebody who wants to be good with women has to go fail under his fake name or real, the only path to success is through failure. Why not fail under your real name? I understand some of you got complicated names or nick names you've had forever this is different. DON'T rename yourself to get women, you should never ever have to start an interaction with a lie (especially concerning something as important as your name). If I seen a guy named twizzler me and my hot girlfriends would be dogging him all year. If I seen a guy dressed like Mystery I'd be laughing at him tearing down the lack of self-esteem he has, laughing at the fact that he is so good with women he has to start off every interaction with a lie.
The only canned opener you should ever use should be a what's up or introduction never ever should you make up some bull shit opinion opener. Do you want game or to get women through?
This is about gaining game, which means self development, not about fake development. You can't convince me that calling yourself mystery, style, gambit, or any other name when you introduce yourself is a good thing. It won't ever be, confidence comes from you learning to be you and developing yourself not developing others.
If gaining pseudo names is a part of the process why do they keep their real names? Why do they always go back to their real names? Why do they have trouble just BEING themselves in front of girls?
Again Natural Game is about you improving yourself: job, knowledge, health, attractiveness, confidence, etc. A fake name does none of this for you.
I want you to take a look at Mystery, considered one of the Godfathers of pick up, that fool had ZERO FUCKEN CONFIDENCE. Seriously NONE, he cried like school girl to start the book. Confidence is also about solidarity with ones self, creating another name to lie to yourself and others is not healthy.
I can go on and on Chris, and don't take this personally this is me being passionate about my disdain for anyone who chooses artificial confidence over true confidence.
Thank you for your compliments, your respect, and how you approached this. I apologize if I did offend you but I promise that wasn't the intention.
Peace and Love
@Science NG-I am an unofficial mod,but screw the official position since I don't like moderating.But as a long-time active member of the forum,I'm constantly being bombarded with PM's from the mods to become mods.
Point still remain: not a thing wrong with pseudonyms.
So you aren't a mod, no need to lie about it. No need to blow yourself up. My stats on that forum: Just about half the posts of you and 9 more votes than you (you only have 21). By those stats the info I provide is more that twice as valuable as yours. I have 2 threads put together that have total hits of 110k. Don't come on here banging your chest like you are the shit, you don't even get close to touching my info's value. You seem to think you are as smart as me, you aren't figure that out and you may learn something.
I've been humble and nice to you, but I'm over it. You need to give me my respect, you came on here coming at me on your first comment. You come on here with a disrespectful tone. You don't come to have a rational argument, you just put your thumbs to your ears and scream loudly I'm right like a 2 year old. Shows nothing but ignorance and arrogance on your part.
Use Pseudo names: Unless you want confidence and want to cry like a little girl when you lack emotional instability (no emotional confidence). Unless you want true natural game and the ability to be YOURSELF and get the girl. Unless you want to bring that confidence to all your worlds rather than the one behind the name.
I teach game and confidence, you teach lies and manipulation to get the girl, we simply teach two different styles (yes meant to be offensive).
Peace and Love

The loud noise coming from some cars is mostly from those playing loud, thumping noises associated with hard metal or rap. They are not playing western or classical music. For those of us who are beyond teenage level, it is very disconcerting; and for those in the car, I'm sure they can't hear any sirens or other emergency vehicles.
This is a good law and long overdue.

Great replacement reservoir
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
This is a great water bladder and is a definite improvement over ones that I've gotten from other brands. It doesn't leak and the tubing is easy to disconnect for storage or cleaning. My only complaint is that it is hard to open and close. I'm hoping that it will get easier the more I use it (only used it about 5 times now). Otherwise, I am very satisfied with this product.

Move over "Grey's Anatomy," an Israeli reality series set in a Tel Aviv hospital is providing a look at life through the eyes of overworked and overtired doctors.
"Ichilov" follows the doctors from several wards at Ichilov Hospital as they care for patients.
The series, which took two years to film, is airing on the Yes Doco channel, a satellite television station.
"The idea was to tell a story through doctors' eyes. A story experienced over their shoulders, through their eyes, through their experiences," Israeli filmmaker Ruthie Shatz told Haaretz. "We wanted to show what it's like to be a surgeon and the burden one carries after picking inside human bodies all day long.
"One must deal with these changes, between looking a person in the eye and being human and compassionate and being focused enough to save his live. If you're not the best at this job, you cannot continue doing it."
Shatz and her partner, movie director Adi Barash, decided to tackle the documentary series after Shatz and her mother were patients at Ichilov Hospital. Shatz's mother had cancer and died, while Shatz suffered from complications of pregnancy.

A grant of $120,000 over three years from the newly established PIMCO Foundation will help Orange County's Jewish Family Service (JFS) expand its services to about 45 elderly Holocaust survivors who reside locally.
The social services agency, which also provides counseling services, assists survivors in obtaining social services and benefits, says Mel Roth, JFS executive director.
The award is the first from the Newport Beach-based foundation and was recommended by an employee of PIMCO, the money management company bought out by Munich-based Allianz. The foundation's assets of $5 million all came from 20 PIMCO partners, who contributed a portion of their Allianz retention bonuses, says Mark Porterfield, the foundation director. They intend to make a similar contribution to a foundation endowment this year, he says.
While grant recipients reflect the interests of employees, Porterfield received a treat of his own. Roth provided a personal introduction to a survivor, who shares with schoolchildren her story of hiding in Holland with her parents.

Rated 2.6 out of 5�by 5 reviewers.
Rated 2 out of 5�by Big D Mediocre Back Support at Best I purchased this back support to help me in my day to day gym activities. However Even though I purchased the largest size, it still ran small, and provided minimal to no back support. If I wanted to feel compressed I would of opted out and gotten an Under Armour instead. August 21, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5�by Mark One size doesn't fit all One size doesn't fit all. I wasted my money on purchasing the belt as one size does not fit all as advertised. I have a 40 inch waist and it will barely fit. In fact, it is too tight to use in any bending type situations. June 12, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5�by Martial Art Fan Works great. Even helps SI JOINT PAIN I have SI joint pain. This provides great support for my back at minimum cost. Its ability to velcro tighten on both sides help to give it a comfortable tight fit. I can wear it during the day and sometimes sleep with it on. My SI Joint is feeling better and healing since I purchased this belt. August 21, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5�by Back Support To small I returned product. It was the largest available.(XL) July 11, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5�by mrsunvally Great Value This is an excellent back brace for the price. My15 year old son had some muscle issues in his back during baseball and he used the brace to relieve some pressure so he could stay on the field. It has worked great and it only took a few days to break in. The only negative is that it is limited in how tight it can go, so you may want to consider something else if you are very skinny.

Abstract Painting Tutorial
Today we are going to create a picture in 2 stages. In stage 1 we are going to practice brushes and form some kind of picture structure and in second stage we will choose what we are going to paint and draw some details to our picture.
So let's begin.
We are starting as usual, by creating a new layer.
Create a new layer and just fill it with black.
Then make these two line selection and copy them into2 separate layers.
These selections have approximate the same width but they are different.
Create new layer.
This will be our backgroundf layer.
And begin to paint.
I've hosen this custom brush (257) to paint my background. It has some texture and is soft edged. This will work to form a background shape.
I would like to color to be yellow or something like yellow.
I will once in a while lighten my colors to reach that glow effect.
alt="abstract painting tutorial"/>
alt="abstract painting tutorial"/>
Create a new layer select this king of brush and tap just ones; the rest will be done by layer styles.
alt="abstract painting tutorial"/>
alt="abstract painting tutorial"/>
And here are my layer settings.
The Inner shadow options are quite standard.
alt="abstract painting tutorial"/>
The inner and outer Glow settings are quite the same with red as the dominant color.
alt="abstract painting tutorial"/>
alt="abstract painting tutorial"/>
Color overlay is standard.
alt="abstract painting tutorial"/>
alt="abstract painting tutorial"/>
Create a copy of this layer and use Gaussian Blur on the top one.
I often use this trick to soften the edges or to give some king of atmosphere effect.
Note that the top layer opacity is near 70-80%.
I will work now to refine the edges of my shape. I will use 2 custom brushes: the dot brush and the Rock brush.
Don't set any settings in brush options.
Here you can see my Custom brushes. You can always find them in the Internet (davaintart.com for example) or just make them.
Still refining the edges and forming the shape.
And this is it for the first part of this tutorial. Follow me in the 2nd part of my Abstract painting tutorial.

On Wednesday, December 12, 2012, the National Democratic Coalition (NDC) issued a statement in Monrovia, publically seeking clarifications specifically from the Government of Liberia(GOL) why they have been excluded from the National Vision 2030 exercise, which is primarily aimed at national renewal and the overall process of post-war reconstruction and development of the country.
The NDC, among other political groupings, is represented and led by the New Democratic Alternative for Liberia Movement (New DEAL Movement) and the Free Democratic Party (FDP).
The NDC says they are seeking clarifications from the government because since the formal launch of the National Visioning Program the national leadership of the party has never been invited to participate in any and all programs and proceedings of the Visioning National Agenda, but other political parties have been invited to participate in this national endeavor.
For example, the NDC notes that they were never invited to the just ended National Vision 2030 Conference in Gbarnga, Bong County.
Unlike other political parties, the NDC avers that they have never received any invitation to participate in any of the Visioning sectoral group discussions, as well as its nation-wide tour. For us, we commend the NDC for the stance they are taking in seeking clarifications from the government concerning its exclusion from the National Vision 2030 exercise.
We consider their move as prudent and well guided. Honestly, we think the government owes the NDC, as a duly registered political party in the country, explanations in this matter because the President has said that the Vision 2030 is for all, not few Liberians.
Like other political parties, it is very important for the government to include the NDC in this vital initiative.
It is our ardent hope that the government will address the NDC's inquiry for the enhancement of our nascent democracy.

15. Voy A Mazatlan
After two days of partying I'm tuckered out and ready to gas up and hit the road. It's Thursday morning (10/10/13) and I'm pretty sure that there is a freighter ferry leaving from La Paz to Mazatlan (on the mainland) Saturday afternoon. First though I want to check out a place called Canyon De La Zorra, which can be found roughly halfway between Cabo San Lucas and La Paz. There is supposed to be granite here, and waterfalls. Which means I can hopefully do some climbing and also jump off some tall shit into water. Yes, this sounds good.
First stop, San Jose del Cabo, the next major town east from Cabo, and where you switch directions to head north towards La Paz. It's more laidback than Cabo, and seems to have itself a nice little thing going. It attracts the less intense vacationers that want the beach and the rays, but not the mayhem that is Cabo.
They even have a nice and relaxed eco building with plants growing on it. Aww isn't that relaxing.
After I head north from San Jose Del Cabo the road becomes nice and curvy. The plays I'm heading towards is called
De La Zorra, so I guess that makes sense.
So much greener here in the South of Baja compared to the North.
After about an hour or so I turned west onto a dirt road towards the canyon.
Here I found a little town that had, no you didn't guess it, a Zoo. Why there would be a zoo out here in the middle of nowhere is beyond me. Also the military. Maybe they came for the zoo.
I stocked up on some food and headed further west out of town towards the canyon.
Again I found sand.
After a few miles I also found a sign that reassured me I was actually in the right place. Looks like I'm close.
DAAAYUUUUMMMNNN, someone's got a pretty driveway.
I got to the end of the driveway and found two evil looking dogs.
They were completely black and hairless, so all their coloring came from their funky sandpapery skin. They looked super fit, they demanded fear from you, but were oddly regal. They probably were birthed straight from the underworld and spend their days hunting souls to eat. I want one.
After I was done being intrigued by the dogs, I realized they were standing in front of a
fence. I'm pretty sure that there were people somewhere on the property. But my bike isn't quiet, and their isn't exactly much else out here to make noise. So if they wanted me to come in and enjoy the Canyon they would have come to the gate. I waited for a while and enjoyed the dogs eary company some more. Nope, nobody is coming, alright, well I guess I'll just go all the way to La Paz today. There's a free beach that I can stay at there too. That'll save me some pesos and help make up for all the money I spent getting silly in Cabo.
I headed back out the driveway and according to the GPS at the end of the driveway I was able to go left rather than turn back right and go down the way I had come. I don't like backtracking so this was good. This road was much sandier though. Again I dumped the bike and again I pinned my leg under the metal pannier.
This time it was my left leg, which has my bum knee from a previous injury attached to it. It's a very weird experience when your mental state changes gears so rapidly, things go from "everything is the norm" to "well shit", very quickly. One minute I'm grinding along in soft sand thinking about my body position, thinking about what side of the sand rut will have better traction, wondering about what breed of dog that was back there, who actually lives all the way out here, can I make it to La Paz before sunset? Then boom. I'm forcibly thrown back into the present moment. I catch a particularly soft patch wrong and me and the bike are now down in the sand, pinned together awkwardly. I start assessing the situation.
Am I badly hurt?
No, nothing hurts, it was a slow spill. But I am stuck.
Is anyone else around to help lift the bike?
Mmm (I look around hoping yes). Who am I kidding though, I haven't seen anyone for 3 hours.
Am I pinned against anything hot, is anything burning me?
Cool, so I'm not in any immediate danger.
Alright, next, I can tell from looking at my leg that this is not good. How long can I stay in this position before it gets too painful and my strength to move the bike goes away?
I focus my attention on my left knee now. I can feel the pressure of the bike, and the unnatural angle of my leg, torquing on the surgical bolts that keep everything in place. My muscles and ligaments are working hard to keep shit together. Mmmmmm, not long. Maybe 3 minutes?
Alright then, it's now or never. I'm pinned awkwardly enough that I can't use my arms or core for any leverage to heave the bike up. Instead I need to use my pinned leg to leverage the bike up and wriggle free. I think for one last time, do I have any other options that don't involve putting more strain on my knee and possibly wrecking it? Nope, if I wait too much longer, my window of opportunity to physically get out on my own is going to shut. I grit my teeth together and start to point and flex my boot as much as possible to loosen up the sand. I torque up on my knee and my leg starts to budge. I can feel all the ligaments working to their limit to stay attached, but after a few more seconds I am able wriggle free of the bike. With my knee back in line and the pressure and torque removed, I crawl away from the bike and roll over onto the ground. My knee is sore but nothing popped or went out so I'm golden. Relieved that I'm out now and the situation is solved, I chuckle to myself. It's funny how again, your mental shift can go
from the "well shit" seriousness of a situation, to the "hah, well that
have sucked" attitude.
With everything in the just peachy again, I stand up carefully and go over to pick up my bike. With the bike upright, again I chuckle to myself at the juxtaposition of how close a fun time and shitty time can reside. Glad I came out on the 'fun time' side on this one.
Irony aside though, having low-speed tumbles in the dirt is normal, getting my leg stuck under the bike (now twice) however, is not normal, and can be a serious issue if I'm all alone in a place like this. It's something that really shouldn't be happening. I thought for a while about what it was that I did when going down that caused it, and how I could possibly have done with my body position to prevent it. I have an idea of what to do differently for the next time, and I'm sure I'll have plenty of opportunities to practice. Hopefully I won't be writing anymore about getting stuck under my bike.
After several hours I made it to La Paz and made it to the beach just after dusk.
By the time I got in I was exhausted and my body was sore. It felt good to be on a nice comfy beach with a cool ocean breeze and soft sounds of waves lapping on beach. I layed down on the beach and put in my headphones to listen to a full Alt-J album and take in the killer night sky. The milky way galaxy is pretty clear tonight. The music flowed and my body relaxed. Hard to find a concert venue this good anywhere else. Not too shabby, mother nature. Not too shabby at all.
The next day I lounged at the beach.
At some damn good ceviche.
And accidently put a whole in my sleeping mat.
There are two ferries that go from La Paz to Mazatlan, one is predominantly a commuter ferry (more luxurious) and the other is a freight/cargo ferry. I decided to take the freight ferry as this seemed more interesting than a posh commuter ferry. It's a 15 hour trip so maybe I can interact with the locals a bit more too.
The next day I went to the terminal and booked my spot on the ferry. There were some paperwork issues but I was actually able to work through it with my broken spanish. Holy shit am I learning spanish?? There was a guy that I met and spoke to for a while at the docks. He offered to just load my bike into the back of his semi trailer, pay the passenger fee, and then ride across with him on the ferry. In hindsight this would have been a good deal, but my spanish wasn't good enough at the time to really understand what he was offering and work out the specifics. I aired on the side of caution and just paid the individual motorcycle toll instead. This is the exact reason why knowing more spanish can be so helpful. Next time, Jhonathan.
Here's the water steed we'll be taking.
Hey, look who else is catching the same boat. The Dutchies and their dog Dunya.
We loaded up.
The dutchies (Michel and Erica) black rig on the left looks so small compared to the other rigs.
Dunya seemed pleased with her spot.
I got my bike strapped in.
Got some goats for neighbors.
Looks like things are lax in terms of where you can and can't go around here. There's the other commuter boat.
We took a look around the deck and then the boat set off.
Dinner was basic ferry food, but it's pretty hard to mess up tacos. Nom nom nom nom.
The ferry is a night ferry which makes the 15hr commute really reasonable. This is the cargo ferry and there are few actual passengers, the majority of the cargo is just semi containers without their drivers. This means there are no real passenger accommodations, and those that are on board just sleep in their rigs. I found a nice spot on an empty gangplank above my bike to sleep.
Pretty top-notch sleeping spot if you ask me. Even have an open air window straight out the side of the hull. It's maybe 30ft off the water and the breeze is perfect.
Being an island boy it's nice being on the ocean again. The slow pitch and yaw of the boat as it rocks across the sea is comfortable and calming. Relaxation sets in. With the boat now well under way, headed away from Baja and towards the mainland, it feels like I'm moving to a different place, a new chapter. Although I know I could easily spend MUCH more time in Baja, I'm ready to go to the mainland. The Baja peninsula has served as a great set of training wheels for me. Baja is sort of like a watered down Mexico. It's super safe, it's very easy to travel, and there are still lots of people that speak a bit of english. As a person who doesn't speak much spanish and has never been to Mexico, These are all good things for me. By traveling Baja first, I've been able to slowly dip my toes into the culture and get a feel for how things are done. Baja has given me a preview of Mexico, and I like what I've seen. I want the real thing now though. Catch you tomorrow Mazatlan.

I wrote a script a while ago for this sort of situation, which
assumes certain things about the VMs /etc/fstab and
/boot/grub/menu.lst files, then it mounts the lvm partition
filesystems in the dom0 appropriately and you could run rsync
across all of them together:
export DISK=$1
export MOUNTPOINT=$2
/sbin/kpartx -av $DISK
mount "$DISK"1 $MOUNTPOINT
if [ -L $MOUNTPOINT/boot ]; then
ROOTPART=`cat $MOUNTPOINT/boot/grub/menu.lst | perl -nle 'if ($_ =~ /^[\s]kernel.+root=\/dev\/\p{L}+([\d])/) { print "$1"; exit}'`
umount $MOUNTPOINT
mount "$DISK""$ROOTPART" $MOUNTPOINT
cat $MOUNTPOINT/etc/fstab | perl -nle 'if ($_ =~ /^\/dev\/\p{L}+([\d])[\s]+((\/\p{L}+)+)/ ) { $device=$ENV{DISK} . $1 ; $mountpoint=$ENV{MOUNTPOINT} . $2 ; system "mount $device $mountpoint"}'
mixing bash and perl is a little ugly, and I don't even know if
this was ever actually used for the intended purpose because it
was for somebody else, but I hope it might help you! :)

It was 12.15am on a Sunday morning last month, in the first floor lobby of an identikit business hotel in north-east Argentina, that a very unlikely deal was done. Two of the last chiefs of that nation's indigenous Guaraní people, hundreds of miles and a world away from their forest home, put their signatures on an A3 print-out of a map, next to those of a local government minister, a lawyer, the young head of an Argentinian logging dynasty and two British conservationists.

I watch and/or listen and/or read transcriptions of Question Period two or three days a week. I usually listen to it while I work. Sometimes I'll watch a little bit, especially when I enjoy the question being asked. And I am enjoying the questions re: Penashue and election spending.
He is allegedly accused of the following:
- Overspending on his election campaign by $4000
- Accepting corporate donations and trying to hide it
- Requesting discounts from corporations that amount to donations
The First Corporate Donation
The first is that records may suggest a corporate donation to Tory MP Penashue.
Penashue deposited a single cheque from a company in his province, but wrote separate receipts to the board members for the donation.
Corporate donations are illegal in Canada. It's also illegal to contribute indirectly, by going through another person to make a donation.
I'll leave it to you to decide whether or not he broke the law. I should also mention that the receipts for the board members were for $1100, the maximum personal donation. You'll read about that later.
The Second Corporate Donation
The second concept is that an airline wrote off a large part of his airline bill. His bill was $24,711 and he paid $7000. That's 71% forgiven. For more on that - Penashue campaign finances were fine, says former agent.
A discount on the commercial value of an item or service provided to candidates counts as a political donation. Corporate donations are illegal in Canada.
Once again, the choice is yours - does it seem like laws were broken?
Is This an Admittance?
He blamed a volunteer within his campaign, suggesting a volunteer accepted a corporate donation., which is illegal. The email, which is a printed and manually redacted document, states that corporate donations cannot be received.
He places the blame on Reg Bowers, his campaign agent:
But Bowers, in an interview with the Toronto Star, said Penashue's campaign fell within federal limits.
"I did not sign off on the $4,000," he said, referring to the amount by which Elections Canada said the campaign overspent.
"When it left my desk, it was under the cap," Bowers, who was subsequently appointed to the Canada-Newfoundland and Labrador Offshore Petroleum Board, told the Star.I'll leave you to decide what happened here - Penashue blamed Bowers, Bowers said there was no problem and then received a plum position.
And Yet He Takes No Questions
From Chris Hall, CBC:
While all this plays out he sits in the Commons, taking the heat, but taking no questions.
It's a difficult position to be in. Attacked, but muzzled. Apparently unable to defend himself, or to explain, which is the essence of parliamentary accountability.
The Conservatives clearly believe the best tactic is to let others answer for the weakened members of the herd, and to turn the focus back on past opposition breaches whenever they can.
So, I let you be the judge and jury for yourself. Do you think he broke the law? Do you think he should explain himself in Question Period? Do you think he had an unfair advantage in the election because of this?

extremely convenient!
Comments about String Swing Violin Hanger with Bow Holder:
This is hands-down the coolest little gadget I've run across in the world of instrument hangers. I bought the music stand clip style. It attaches to your music stand and gives you the most convenient place to set your instrument when taking a break. We all know that we're more likely to actually practice and play when our instrument is out of its case. I can stroll in and pick up the violin, play for ten minutes, then pop it back onto its hanger. And the bow hanger works wonderfully. Just seeing your instrument out makes you want to play. I've read some reviews that say it is flimsy and unsafe, but I have to disagree. No worries with stability here. Just make sure your music stand is snug and tight. I wouldn't recommend this for a lightweight music stand though. Very cool product.

In 1995, Playworks Founder Jill Vialet got an earful from a principal she was visiting in Oakland, California. Rather than recess being a happy, playful time for the kids, the principal lamented that it had become the most chaotic period of the school day, with kids getting hurt, getting into trouble and getting left out. In that moment Jill saw an opportunity to change recess, to make it a positive and productive time for all kids. In 1996, Jill founded Playworks. In 2011, Playworks began serving three schools in Arizona. Today our program has expanded to serve six school districts, impacting 15,500 children daily.
Principals tell us that nearly all discipline-related problems in school occur during lunch and recess. Instead of going back to class energized and ready to learn, the kids return to class upset and unable to focus.
We can change this. Recess should be fun and energetic and safe and inclusive for everyone. Isn't that what we want for all kids in elementary school today?
When recess becomes a healthy, integral part of the school day, kids carry that positive experience with them beyond the playground. On our playgrounds, everyone plays, everyone belongs, everyone contributes to the game. Coaches encourage kids to bring out the best in themselves and each other, and kids learn the value of fair play, compassion and respect. On our playgrounds, kids become leaders. They run their own games and settle their disputes quickly (rock-paper-scissors is our problem solver) because getting along is more fun than fighting. On our playgrounds, kids play hard, cheer loud and high five with joy. And they carry that feeling of peace and belonging with them into their classrooms, back to their neighborhoods, out into the world.
In Arizona, Playworks serves 18 low-income Title 1 elementary schools, positively impacting 13,000 students every day through our direct service and training programs.
PLAYWORKS for teachers and principals
Every year, Playworks surveys teachers, staff and principals at our partner schools to help us learn more about the impact of our program. Here's what they told us:
- 92 percent reported a decrease in incidents of bullying during recess;
- 94 percent reported an increase in the level of participation in academic activities;
- 95 percent reported that students increased in physical activity;
- 90 percent reported that Playworks had a positive impact on overall school climate;
The program has helped student behavior and therefore has impacted the time we spend on academics vs the time spent solving problems. Students are also a lot more willing to participate in lessons and share what they think.
- Teacher, Augustus H. Shaw Jr. School, Phoenix
Playworks offers training and full-time services for schools and youth development organizations throughout Arizona. Learn more about how Playworks can help your school.

Yay! CouchDB has an official IANA port number: 5984
See for yourself (search for CouchDB): http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers
This must be how Steve Martin felt in The Jerk when he got his name in the phone book.
So the official port number is 5984. Hmmm, how to remember that?
Well, in the year 1984 a totalitarian regime oppressed and controlled all of humanity, a boot stamping on a human face—forever. Or it seemed that way. 4000 years later, CouchDB was born, enabling an underground resistance to organize, share knowledge and rise up to free humanity from the shackles of ignorance and oppression. 5984 was the year.
A big thanks to Noah Slater for doing the work to get the port number.

How to ruin music and TV with one device
I had to return the loaner Sonos bundle I wrote about a few months ago, and I was sad and disappointed because I really loved the Sonos. The Sonos is a dream, works great with Rhapsody and filled our house with music. Wonderful, until I had to give it back. Then I was sad.
So I was excited when recently Tivo announced they would have Rhapsody integration for on-demand music streaming. Everyone knows how much I love my TiVo (I was quite upset up when my Series 1 Tivo died earlier this year), and I was already looking for a music system for our main living area. With all the goodness Tivo provides for TV viewing, I had high expectations for it as a music player.
And my high hopes have been completely dashed. What a disaster. The Rhapsody player crashes and hangs ALL the time. We have never gotten through an entire meal without the music hanging. And I eat fast. When the damn thing crashes I have to reboot my whole TiVo box and any TV shows recording at the time get interrupted too while it reboots. Anger...rising. It's like the Lil' Rage Inducer all over again.
This isn't like the regular Tivo experience *at all*. I'm betting the same people who wrote wrote the rock-solid Tivo software did NOT write the Rhapsody piece. But it doesn't matter who wrote it, it makes Tivo look bad. Not cool Tivo. Not cool at all.
A simple solution to this is to just buy a Sonos, it's slick, easy to use and "just works". It never hung, ever. BUT it's priced more than we can justify right now. So we are going to try the Squeezebox from Logitech. It's not nearly as impressive of a system as the Sonos, but it's a lot cheaper, and like Sonos and Tivo it doesn't require a PC to stream Rhapsody music. Hopefully it will be an acceptable compromise.

CouchDB 0.7.0
The CouchDB development team is proud to announce CouchDB version 0.7.0 is now available at http://code.google.com/p/couchdb/downloads/list.
This release is a major milestone in the project's history.
Key features include:
- a REST API using JSON instead of XML for data transport,
- a JavaScript view engine based on Mozilla Spidermonkey,
- a GNU Autotools build system supporting most POSIX systems (Noah Slater) ,
- a built-in administration interface (Christopher Lenz),
- experimental fulltext search with Lucene (Jan Lehnardt) and
- countless tweeks, enhancements and other small refinements.
Version 0.7.0 is the first CouchDB release that is intended for widespread use.
The programming interface is now stable enough to encourage application development on top of CouchDB. Please remember that it is still 'alpha software' and that some features may be changed or removed in a future release.
Due to a current limitation in the Erlang/OTP filesystem driver a CouchDB database file can not grow beyond 2 gigabytes in size. This is not a limitation in CouchDB itself, but in the standard library it uses. This problem will be addressed in a future release.
Special Thanks to William Beh, Jan Lehnardt, Roger Leigh, Christopher Lenz, Sam Ruby, Dirk Schalge, Noah Slater and Carlos Valiente.

It's a tough job, but somebody's got to do it, right?

DiCaprio was reportedly working on a video shoot of some kind, but it's not exactly clear what it was for.
Leonardo DiCaprio keeps his cool in icy new Jim Beam ad
And seeing how he also managed to steal a smooch at one point, it's probably safe to say DiCaprio wasn't too concerned about that, either.
Yep. The yacht may not have been of Titanic proportions, but the 38-year-old actor was no doubt feeling like the king of the world nevertheless.

Child Care
Welcome to the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service's child care website! Child care providers play a vital role in caring for America's children. According to recent estimates, over 13 million children under the age of five receive some type of non–parental care on a regular basis. Further estimates indicate that approximately 24 million school-age children and youth are in need of some form of after-school care.
The quality of care that children receive does matter! Children who receive high quality care develop better language, math, and social skills, exhibit fewer behavior problems, and tend to be better prepared for entrance into school. On this site, you will find research-based information on child care related issues, including newsletters, fact sheets, and on-line courses for child care providers to satisfy state mandated training requirements.

This story was updated at 2:30 p.m. with additional information.
MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) -- Alabama health officials investigating a cluster of respiratory illnesses say the total has increased to 10, but they are closing the investigation.
State Health Officer Don Williamson said Thursday the cases are unrelated and all have reasonable explanations. He said health officials took extraordinary caution because of two new viruses -- one in China and another in the Middle East. But they found no evidence of new or unexpected viruses or bacteria in the cluster of cases in southeast Alabama.
Two have died, six remain in hospital and two have been released from hospitals. The 10 people range in age from 24 to 87.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced earlier that testing on seven of the patients found no sign that the illnesses were caused by any single germ.
Health officials say lab tests have ruled out any unusual germ as the cause of nine mysterious illnesses in Alabama.
The tests on seven of the nine patients found common cold and flu viruses. A Centers for Disease Control and Prevention official on Thursday said the agency found no sign that the illnesses were caused by any single germ.
Meanwhile, Alabama officials said they had added two more cases to the cluster, which included two earlier deaths.
The cluster was first reported earlier this week. Most of the nine were treated at Southeast Alabama Medical Center in Dothan, but one was seen at a hospital in Crenshaw County.
The nine people suffered a flu-like illness with symptoms like fever, cough and shortness of breath.

Chet Huntley remembered, Part II
Mitch E. Perry
WMNF Drive-Time News Monday | Listen to this entire show:
Chet Huntley is one of the all-time most famous anchors in broadcast news history.
The Huntley-Brinkely report on NBC became the top-rated newscast in the late 1950s and ruled the Nielsen ratings until Walter Cronkite and CBS took over in 1967.
In 1970, Chet Huntley retired to his home in Montana. He died in 1974 at 62.
A new biography on Huntley, called, âChet Huntley: Newscaster from the West: A New Kind of Bookâ, written by local author Mark Weisenmiller has just been published by Alka Press International.
Weisenmiller, who also writes for the Economist and Agence France Press, writes in his book that it was the coverage of the civil rights movement in Arkansas that catapulted the Huntley-Brinkeley report to become must see TV in 1957. He spoke about this during an interview with WMNF.

Originally written on Waiting For Next Year | Last updated 2/2/13
Every year, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell gives his state of the NFL press conference on the Friday prior to the Super Bowl. This year, there was no shortage of issues and controversies in professional football, so Goodell had plenty to address. First, with the issue of player safety, the commissioner had this to say: "I'm disappointed, because I think we have tremendous medical care for our players. These are not just team doctors. These doctors are affiliated with the best medical institutions in the world – the Cleveland Clinic, Stanford, Hospital for Special Surgery. The medical care that is provided to our players is extraordinary. Now, we will always seek to improve it. We will always seek to figure out how we can do things better, provide better medical care, but I think it's extraordinary. And as I talk to players – including one yesterday – they feel the same way, but we'll have to address that and we'll have to figure out what we can do to try to improve it. One of those I also mentioned in the opening. We'll add a neurosurgeon on the field that can be there for consultation, that can be there for another set of eyes on the field, and to support the doctors in making the best possible decisions on the field, and off the field. And I believe our doctors do that." Then, after fifteen head coaching and GM openings came and went without a single minority hiring, Goodell replied: "We want to focus on how do we get to a Rooney Rule, or an extension of the Rooney Rule, or a new generation of the Rooney Rule, that will allow us to do that? There was full compliance with the Rooney Rule. There were, in fact, I believe, a record number of interviews. But we didn't have the outcomes that we wanted, and the outcomes are to make sure that we have full diversity throughout our coaching ranks, throughout our executive ranks, and throughout the league office. It's very important to the success of the league to do that, and we're committed to finding those solutions."

Written by Ed Osborn
Willimantic, Conn. - Eastern Connecticut State University has been selected to participate in the national Learning-To-Improve Project. Based on student responses to the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE), Eastern has demonstrated improved performance over time in three key areas: active and collaborative learning, faculty-student interactions, and a supportive campus environment. The project -- undertaken by NSSE staff and funded by the Spencer Foundation -- aims to capture practices at Eastern and other exemplary institutions that resulted in these improvements.
Graduating seniors at Eastern rate the University as an institution "committed to their success" and "cultivating positive working and social relations among different groups on campus." Freshmen report increased interaction with faculty in and out of the classroom, along with increased opportunities for collaboration with classmates to solve problems and to master difficult material.
"These positive results reflect the core values - academic excellence, engagement, inclusion, integrity, empowerment, and social responsibility - that inform Eastern's commitment to student success," said Eastern President Elsa Núñez. "We are encouraged by this recognition from our students and honored to participate in projects such as Learning to Improve."

For decades, astronomers have grappled with their inability to decipher the universes darkest secret: the identity of most of its matter.
Its not the same stuff as the ordinary atomic variety of matter common on Earth. Atoms or their parts such as protons and neutrons make up less than 17 percent of the mass in the cosmos. All the rest is dark invisible to eyes and telescopes, its presence deduced by its gravitational tug on stars and galaxies. This mystery matter apparently consists of tiny particles of some exotic species...
