DCLXVI: The End of Rulersbysexgundam666©
Named for my mistakes
I've been blamed for nothing
A thief, a disease, a monster
The plague of the land
Victims vague in the mist of blood
Flames engulf the world that I see
Burning those who closed their eyes
Turning woes into blissful tears they cry
Blames are forced unto innocents
Seeking me out, forcing me down
On my knees as I'm left to drown
Before the crowd of crying sows
Who stand and do nothing but submit
Each of them bows down and takes this shit
Like it was the fucking air they breathe
Now in nothing but black
The lies they heard shatter the truth
Their hope, their release, their demons
All comes crashing down
On bones underneath their false thrones
We lost all we could've been
Now left in our holy sin
We lost so we could win
And now you are left on earth
To wander and die alone
We kept you alive with our wills to fight
We slept by your bed and fed on your scraps
Like dogs we were hunters and hunted alike
We followed blindly with our mouths sewn shut
We wallowed in filth and bathed in our blood
Like game we were slain and eaten
Just you fucking wait, we will come
And then you will face all you've done

Kampala — Semu Nderema smiles as he stands under a cocoa tree. This is the biggest cocoa harvest he has had in almost 10 years. In 1999, he had a small harvest and last year there was none.
Nderema, a resident of Kikindu village in Bundibugyo district, was affected by the Allied Democratic Front war from 1999 to 2001 as well as the drought in 2009.
Some residents of Kikindu walk for three days to Fort Portal to get food, while others do manual labour on people's farmers to eke a living.
Nderema sometimes takes on construction jobs to support his two wives and 20 children. When one of his wives goes to work, he tends to their 300-cocoa-tree farm as well as the children.
"I harvest about seven kilos of cocoa from each tree. The rains have been consistent and the harvest good. As a result, my life has improved," the 50-year-old says. This season Nderema has harvested 2,100kg of cocoa beans. After drying them to remove the moisture, they reduce to about 1,990kg.
Cocoa booms in Bundibugyo
Edmund Bishaka, the district agriculture officer, says the district produced over 11,000 tonnes of cocoa this season and 7,000 tonnes in 2008. "This is because of the heavy and consistent rains that give cocoa enough moisture. Farmers also maintained the gardens well," he says.
Buyers grade their cocoa in two categories; conventional (where chemical fertilisers and pesticides are used) and organic (where farm yard manure is used to improve the fertility of the soil and also boost yields).
Organic cocoa fetches a higher price. A kilo of dry conventional cocoa costs sh3,500, while wet conventional cocoa costs sh2,500.
Nderema says on the world market, the price of dry cocoa beans is about $7.5 (sh15,000) per kilo. He says Scandinavians countries like Netherlands and Sweden prefer organic cocoa because they believe it is free from harmful chemicals.
"I got about sh15m from my harvest. I have been able to send my children to school and I am building a permanent house," he explains.
Moses Matte, a farmer in Kikindu, says he got sh30m from cocoa sales. It has helped him start a dairy farm. "I have also opened an electrical appliance shop in Bundibugyo town from my cocoa sales," he says.
Bundibugyo is earning a lot from cocoa. Bishaka says farmers in the district make sh22b annually compared to the annual district budget of sh16m.
Bishaka says the district collects sh300m annually in farmers' tax. Statistics from the district chief administrator's office indicate that from 2007 to date, the district constructed over 52 classrooms and 12 teachers' houses using revenue from cocoa. Over 200km of roads have also been maintained.
Bishaka says cocoa growth has created severe food insecurity with over 55% of the population lacking food security. "Much of the land which would have been used to grow food crops is taken up by cocoa. It is hard to convince people to spare at least 20% of the land for food crops," says Bishaka.
A surveys in Bundibugyo reveals that a kilo of rice costs sh2,500. In Kampala, it costs about sh2,000; while a bunch of gonja or sweet bananas costs sh15,000 in Bundibugyo, and sh16,000 in Kampala.
Statistics from the district planning office indicate that about 60% of the people in Bundibugyo live below the poverty line compared to the national rate of 31%.
At a function in Bundibugyo recently, Dr. Kamanda Bataringaya, the state minister for primary education, said: "As much as cocoa brings in money, it has also brought polygamy. When a man gets money from selling cocoa, he marries more women. This has increased family break-ups. Malnutrition among children is also high."
The World Food Programme (WFP) reveals that over 45% of the children in Bundibugyo are malnourished, compared to the national average of about 38%. WFP blames it on cocoa production, lack of a balanced diet and ignorance.
Education standards in Bundibugyo have also dropped. The Bundibugyo district education officer, Esau Willy Nshabiirwe, says whenever there is a cocoa harvest, almost three quarters of the children stay home. "Out of about 2,000 candidates who sat Primary Leaving Education last year, only 66 passed in first grades," he says.
History of cocoa growing
Bishaka says over-production of cocoa and subsequent troubles stem from historical problems. He says Bundibugyo was a great coffee-producing region. "But in the 1940s, the wilt disease attacked all the coffee. People lost 90% of it to the wilt, which discouraged the farmers," he explains.
The first trials of cocoa were carried out in Bundibugyo in the 1950s. When the crop did well due to its humid, dry and volcanic soil conditions, almost everybody switched to cocoa production, Bishaka says. "Cocoa prices are ever increasing and the crop is easy to grow. When you transplant cocoa from a nursery bed, all you need is to weed; you don't have to prune.
You harvest within three years," he says. Cocoa has two harvesting seasons. However, "due to weather changes, people in Bundibugyo are harvesting the crop monthly." Mukono and Hoima districts also grow cocoa. Cocoa products include chocolate and beverages.
Edmund Bishaka, the district agriculture officer of Bundibugyo, says the district is sensitising people to devote at least 20% of their land to food crop production.
"This will improve the food security and diversify people's income. If a disease affects cocoa, it means disaster." The LC3 chairman of Bubandi sub-county in Bundibugyo district, says they have set up by-laws to encourage people to grow food crops. "There is a by-law that requires every household to plant at least 25 banana stems," he says.
Bubandi sub-county speaker Aba Edison says they have set up a Police team that patrols villages to arrest parents who keep their children at home to harvest cocoa.

pretty awesome for traditional...which it is right? and what is that, oils? you might try cleaning up some of the stuff that is a little undefined..like the shirt maybe, or around the ear? just an idea. and next time, i think a little color contrast in the lower left would really add to it.

Though a judge threw out some of the prosecution's key evidence in the corruption trial of Sen. Ted Stevens, government attorneys have been allowed to question a witness about some of the records included in that evidence.
On Wednesday, U.S. District Court Judge Emmet Sullivan ruled against a mistrial in the case of Sen. Ted Stevens, but he struck key evidence the government used to make its case that Stevens lied about renovations to his home in Girdwood, Alaska and other gifts he received, primarily from the former CEO of Veco, a now-defunct oil services firm.
But in nearly two hours of testimony Thursday, Dave Anderson, a former Veco employee, testified about the project to renovate Stevens' home. Anderson helped jack up Steven's home, laid the foundation for the new floor, and did the framing. Anderson also testified that he helped build an extensive deck for the house, but that he went to Portland, Ore. while another contractor did a lot of the internal finishing work on the house.
Stevens' lawyers had asserted that the government knew Anderson was in Portland, Ore., for several months even though he had submitted time sheets for work he billed as being done in Girdwood. The government had submitted Anderson's time sheets to the jury.
Defense attorney Robert Cary, having seemed to have gained a huge seed of reasonable doubt with the judge's ruling to expunge Anderson's billing records from evidence, sat looking concerned most of the morning. The defense did not cross-examine Anderson, and the prosecution has now rested its case.
Later Thurday, Judge Emmet Sullivan will tell the jury why the evidence was struck and that the prosecutors knew the information was inaccurate. The defense is up next, and is slated to call Sen. Daniel Inouye, D-Hawaii, and former Bush administration Secretary of State Colin Powell as character witnesses.
The mistrial request by Stevens' defense recapped the government's failure to provide them information they should have had to prepare for the trial and included allegations that the prosecutors submitted evidence they knew to be false.
Sullivan's order focused on grand jury information that contradicted documents prosecutors entered into evidence and on records that were not submitted by the government about a car trade between Stevens and key government witness Bill Allen, the former VECO CEO who paid for renovations to Stevens' home.
"In opening arguments they said VECO kept track of their payments right down to the penny," defense attorney Robert Cary said in his request for a mistrial.
The invoices are for thousands of dollars that were billed by Anderson for work on Stevens' home, including one for $20,150, and one for $21,885.28.
The documents that will be struck from the record will also affect the testimony of a key prosecution witness, VECO accountant Cheryl Boomershine, who testified in detail about invoices and records that VECO employees submitted for work done at Stevens' home.
"[The prosecution] knew two of the VECO employees were not working on the project and that one of them, Dave Anderson, was not even in the state," Cary said. "Two hundred eighty hours on Girdwood. They circled his time for the jury."
"The grand jury testimony in their files showed they knew this. This was false evidence," Cary told Sullivan.
"The government knew those records were lies," said Sullivan, who, at times, has seemed exasperated with the prosecution team.

Surprise team candidates for 2013
As much as it seemed improbable for Notre Dame to come from out of nowhere to play for the national championship, that's exactly what the Irish did this season. Coming into 2012, we suspected Notre Dame would be a better team, but not necessarily one capable of stringing together wins against a fairly difficult schedule.
It was ugly at times, no question, but the Domers did something no other postseason-eligible team did this season -- they won all of their games. In looking back, were there earmarks -- in recruiting or elsewhere -- that indicated a surprise season was coming?
Florida is another "surprise team of the year" candidate with Will Muschamp and first-year offensive coordinator Brent Pease taking the Gators from 7 to 11 wins and a return to the BCS.
Even though it's sitting at home this bowl season, I suppose Ohio State merits some recognition in this vein. It's not that Urban Meyer turned around a team that went 6-7 in 2011 -- that much was expected -- it's that OSU went undefeated.
Who will be next season's Notre Dame, Florida or Ohio State? I've selected primary and secondary candidates from each of the five major conferences that could be surprise contenders in 2013.
Primary candidatesACC -- North Carolina Tar Heels
Ohio State isn't the only team that will again be postseason-eligible in 2013. Even with confounding conference losses this season to Wake Forest, Duke and Georgia Tech, the Tar Heels still managed eight victories in Larry Fedora's first season.

Hey, it's Unbreakable-Warrior
Coming here to write a little something for the wonderful girl who owns this page c:
I knew I loved you before I even met you. I've known that for a really long time now and never doubted it.
And then I met you.
Going in the airport was the most terrifying experience in my life.
So many people; so much noises; and not knowing where to find you.. But I managed to find you. My tiny, lost, confused and exhausted kitten.
You saw me and smiled at me and the world changed in a minute.
You ran to me. Yes; you did! You literally jumped in my arms and at the very moment they closed around you I realized that things would be perfect. That I was complete. Oh I wanted to kiss you so bad. To taste your lips and hold you close and never let you go.
Everything just came naturally and that's what makes it absolutely insane.
Your hand in mine; only a few minutes after we've met for the very first time IRL, was the most natural thing. And it never left mine since then.
Your body next to mine, curled up on a chair with my arm around you; watching a movie… The most amazing thing.
Sleeping with you next to me… in my arms. We haven't spent a night apart since then and I know I will not be able to sleep as well as I do when I know that I will open my eyes to see you; that I will breathe you and hold you… that you're right next to me.
I hate physical contact but with you; it feels right. I crave it; love it; enjoy every bit of it and I don't think my life would be complete if I had to go without it for any reason.
I love to look next to me; see you smile at me and think "holly shit, we made it". I love to kiss you for absolutely no other reason than the fact that I can; and see you smile at me… I swear I fall in love with you again and again every time.
And it lets me know we will be fine. I know that. I feel it in my bones.
When people ask how I feel about knowing that we might be apart again I know I should be upset; but I'm not.
Yes; I want to stay with you; and distance will hurt like hell… but I know we will be fine. I know you will wait for me, and I will wait for you. I know that you will be the first thing to come in my head in the morning when I'll wake up; and the last one to cross my mind when I'll fall asleep. I know you will be in every dream I'll have.
You are my other half. My mate. My everything.
We are perfect together; in so many way… I protect you from the world, from what I know could hurt you; and you protect me from what's inside of me; from myself. You are my rock; and I am yours. You're the only light I have when darkness are coming in my life and everything seems lost and over. I am the one you can run to if you're scared or upset.
We help each other; love each other; and I know we will grow old together. And that's all I can ask for.
You and me. Together in a small apartment, struggling to get everything we want done; but happy. I will be happy knowing that I'll have the same bed, with the same person; my person, every night. That I will see the same smile when I call her name, hear the same voice saying "I love you" every day.
I can't promise you that thing will be easy. But I can promise you that my heart will never leave your side.
It's you and me; and it's only the beginning of one of these epic love stories that makes people cry and believe in love so much it hurts~

Well, it's past the time for the national pastime to put away the old hot stove for another winter. While in many of the game's favorite cities there might still be more snowballs tossed than the baseballs - pitchers and catchers have reported, beginning another year of fun in the sun on the Grapefruit and Cactus circuits.
This is an historic year for the Dodgers. Not only are they celebrating the 50th anniversary of their move to Los Angeles...this is their final year at Dodgertown in Vero Beach, Florida. They, like other Florida perennials before them, are heading west to new digs in Arizona. Tempe, Arizona is their current hot spot.
If you are looking for some sun, and lots of exhibition baseball, head for the Phoenix area. I've lost count of how many teams have or share facilities within about a 30 mile radius. More than half a dozen, I'm sure.
My team, the Angels, once played spring training home games at the late Gene Autry's mecca in Palm Springs.
But now, we look ahead. How about your team? Thoughts? Hopes? Predictions? Pictures? They're all welcome here until that day when the author once said the "life begins"...Opening Day.

"I (Wisdom) love those who love me; And those who diligently seek me will find me." -- Proverbs 8:17
The Hebrews personified wisdom. They found wisdom in personal revelation. Unlike the Greeks who searched for wisdom in formal thought and abstract conceptions, the Hebrews searched for wisdom in practical, personal living. For them wisdom was akin to righteousness. Wisdom was knowing how to live in fellowship with God and others. They were certain that if they desired this and searched for it diligently, that God would reveal it to them.
When the Hebrew scriptures were translated into Greek, the translators searched for a Greek word that would convey this idea of wisdom to the Greek mind. They used the word "logos" from which we derive the word "logic." For us "logic" is something abstract and formal. For the Greeks "logos" was the divine mind or reason and, at times, they talked about it in personal terms.
That is why the Apostle John calls Jesus the "logos." To the Hebrews he is God's wisdom and righteousness in the flesh. To the Greeks he is the divine mind and reason personified. To us he is the "Word" and "Wisdom" of God.
Seek and ye shall find.

1.) Bel color is generally a good indicator of skill.
2.) Belt color/Rank should never be taken as law. Find out for yourself.
3.) Belt color does not say much about you as a person.
4.) My girlfriend is a very perky C. VERY perky.
In conclusion, my girlfriend has a near perfect combination of natural size and perkiness, and Matt Thorton should learn that brevity is a blessing, not a sin.

What I don't understand is if SBG is supposed to not be an actual gym, but an organization of gyms that believe in common training goals
("We are an organization that is literally built of, and on, each and every one of its members, and their individual questions, experiences, discoveries, needs and concerns. That includes both males and females, from age 4 through to those well over 54. People who train for reasons spanning fun, fitness, recreation, sport, self-defense on through to specialized agencies, facilities and units.
We are not an MMA gym, BJJ federation, JKD school, firearms facility, self-defense academy or fitness center. We are each, and all of those and much, much more; integrated and systematically comprehensive through the blood, sweat, trials and critical thinking of training through, and with, aliveness.")
How can something Thornton says be applied to all SBG locations? Almost every SBG trains/thinks a little different, Thornton is a seperate entity.Tough is not how you act, tough is how you train.

And no, I'm not going to do any such thing to my poor girlfriend. Besides, she's out of town on Spring Break right now. Some people apparently think partying in Miami is more fun than training for a bjj tournament.

Interesting article - a little rambling, even but Thornton standards.
About halfway down are some weird pictures of SBG UK director Carl Tanswell in strange, very on-functional poses. I am proud to say I was at that workshop, and that Carl Rocks!

Disclosure of documents in procurement disputes
One of the most common queries Mills & Reeve receives from disappointed bidders is: 'How can I get hold of the documents? I need to know whether it is worth bringing a claim.' This is a perennial problem for those wishing to challenge an award, particularly if they are to meet the time limits for challenges set out in The Public Contracts Regulations 2006.
While a request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 can unlock some information, the statutory scheme gives contracting authorities enough time to legitimately drag their feet until the time limits for issuing proceedings under the regulations has passed.
In a recent case before the High Court, Roche Diagnostics Ltd v The Mid Yorkshire Hospitals NHS Trust (2013), the judge ruled that an aggrieved bidder could obtain early disclosure of specific documents that might enable it to take an informed view of the evaluation process and for pre-action disclosure of documents relating to the letting of an interim contract…

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Fondest memory: These cheeky creatures were regular visitors to the hotel's restaurant, particularly at breakfast time. On our first morning we didn't have our cameras, but after that every breakfast I think we spent more time watching them and taking photos than we did actually eating!
For the marmosets the biggest draw was the sugar bowl, the lid of which some of them had obviously learned to open. But if that was beyond their skill the bread rolls were not :) And many of the hotel guests were willing to indulge them and share their breakfast for the sake of a good photo, as you can see we were.
These particular marmosets are Common Marmosets, also sometimes known as Cotton Eared Marmosets (from the distinctive white tufts of hair around the ears). They range in size from 14 to 18 cm and have grey bodies and a banded tail. Their normal diet consists of insects, spiders, small vertebrates, bird eggs and tree sap – but not here in Praia do Forte! They are often domesticated, and you can see from the photos how happy they were for us to come relatively close to them. Watching their antics really did make a great way to start our days here.Related to:
- Eco-Tourism
Fisherman's Village
Favorite thing: One reason we chose the Praia do Forte resort was its proximity to this village, only a 30 minute walk away along the beach or (slightly further) by road. We came here several times – to see the TAMAR Project and its turtles, to take photos and to relax in a friendly café as a change from the more rarefied atmosphere of the resort.
The village is home to 1,800 people, and consists of fishermen's houses, a square, and a church. It was once part of the Fazenda Praia do Forte (Praia do Forte Farm), a large concern responsible for much of the devastation of the local forests. When the farm was bought in order to develop the resort, the area taken up by the village was donated to the municipality on the condition that its inhabitants not sell their houses; they were authorized to leave them for their children only. This was designed as a strategy to maintain Praia do Forte's original ambience, as it would prevent the houses becoming second homes for city dwellers or holiday apartments.
Fondest memory: The houses still preserve some of the atmosphere of the past, although the main streets have been paved and a small commercial area developed with local crafts stores, boutiques, bars, restaurants, and guest houses. While the number of visitors increases every year, the village still retains a traditional atmosphere and feels like a place for the locals first and foremost. Local people still put their chairs on the sidewalk to chat and children play in the streets. However I sense from checks on the internet that already the village is much more touristy than it was when we visited six years ago, and I suspect the trend will continue as this area does have so much to offer for tourists. Hopefully, though, the conditions and regulations imposed on the use of the buildings will prevent the village from becoming too spoiled or over-developed. If all goes well for Praia do Forte, the delicate balance between tourist economy, improvements to the locals' quality of life and the picturesque appearance of the village that attracts those tourists in the first place will be maintained.
The beach
Favorite thing: The EcoResort at Praia do Forte is set on the lovely Tatuapara Bay, a long sweep of beautiful sand lined with palm trees. This isn't one of those private beaches though, where tourists are fenced off from the real world of the area they are visiting. I loved the fact that this is a working beach as well as place for holiday-makers to relax, and the two mix happily together – you can see in my photo how some of the tourists are joining in the task of hauling in the fishermen's nets. We didn't swim in the sea here, as when we visited (in October) there were rather a lot of jellyfish (see photo 3) but did enjoy several good walks. On the first occasion we came on a nature hike organised and led by a resident naturalist from the hotel, which made an good introduction to the area, but on other occasions we preferred to come alone and take our time exploring and looking for good photo opportunities. One morning I got up particularly early and came down to the beach alone, where I met the little chap in photo 4.
At the far end of the bay from the hotel is the fisherman's village, described in my next tip.Related to:
- Eco-Tourism
Amusing Marmosets
Favorite thing: If you are going to travel on the northeast coast of Brazil there is a big possibility that you'll come across common marmosets. This highly active cute little creatures, relative to other monkeys, usually live in the top of the forest trees in family groups of 3 to 8, sometimes even larger. They are easily identified by the two white tufts of hair at the sides of the head, and the white mark on the forehead. The long tail has grey-white rings. Their size ranges from 14 to 18 cm and they feed on fruit, insects, bird's eggs as well as tree gums and saps.
Fondest memory: Marmosets in Imbassaí became domesticated. It's not unusual to see them in the properties of pousadas. They run swiftly along the branches of trees and are also excellent jumpers. When I had my first breakfast in the garden of pousada I was surprised at how many they were and how close they came. I quickly got used to it and found them quite amusing :)Related to:
- Eco-Tourism
Itacaré: Eco Tourism at its Best
Favorite thing: Getting to Itacaré is easy. If you have reservations at a lodge/hotel in Itacaré, they will probably see to your (paid) transportation from Ilhéus (nearest Airport) to Itacaré. Otherwise, you will have to either rent a car or take a cab (be sure to settle the cab fare before leaving). Renting a car is not a good idea, because you will certainly hire a Tour Operator in Itacaré, so it will be a waste of resources.
In Itacaré:
The choice of hotels is nearly endless. I stayed at Pousada Papaterra (www.papaterra.com.br, 073.251.2137) because some friends were staying there, and it was OK. Nothing spectacular, but the room was spacious, clean and fresh. Air conditioning helped a lot - it was very hot. It was conveniently located - not in the heart of the village, but within walking distance to restaurants. The restaurants we enjoyed the most were Recanto das Artes (Italian cuisine/pizza) and Dona Flor (seafood + great salads - and good salads are really hard to come across in Bahia, where salad usually means lettuce and sliced tomatoes).
Fondest memory: Be prepared to walk a lot.
The best beaches are all pretty inaccessible. Although I am not fond at all of guided tours, they proved necessary there, because it is not really possible to go hiking on your own. All the bays (every beach is a small bay) are separated by wooded hills. We hired Itacaré Ecoturismo - 073.251.2224. Everyday, a 4X4 would pick us up at the lodge and drop us off somewhere. We would usually walk a few more miles to the beach, spend the day, then walk back to the jeep, and be driven back to the lodge.
There are lots of beautiful beaches. They are very primitive, and the surf is really rough - no wonder Itacaré is known as "Surfers' Paradise" in Brazil. Therefore, not great at all for bathers. The more "urban" beaches - which are not the coolest - have bars and restaurants, the others don't. The Tour Company would pack a snack (water, a sandwich, fruit, a ceral bar), but it is always a good idea to bring whatever you want to eat/drink during the day.
In addition to the beaches, there are beautiful waterfalls to be seen. Also rafting, if you are the more "adventurous" type.
Be sure not to miss neighboring Maraú - but that deserves a page of its own!

Garapoá é o Melhor de Tinharé
Favorite thing: Chegando na Ilha de Tinharé:
Em minha opinião, o meio mais prático de se chegar a Morro de São Paulo é de avião mesmo. E não fica tão caro ao se contabilizar todo o trâmite aeroporto/táxi/catamarã, e o melhor é que reduz o tempo de percurso drasticamente: apenas 20 minutos. E a vista é incrível. A pista de pouso fica na Terceira Praia do Morro, onde começam as melhores acomodações da ilha. Há duas empresas que operam vôos entre Salvador e Morro:
Adey (71.377.1993/240.8818)
Aerostar (71.377.4406/377.1763)
Em Morro de São Paulo
Chez Max (75.483.1103)
Terceira Praia s/n
A pousada é muito bonita. Bom café da manhã, e uma super pizza à noite. Não tem piscina, mas está na praia. Também é de muito fácil acesso à pista de pouso (cerca de 300 metros).
Não gostei de "astral" do Morro de São Paulo: muita gente, muita farofa, muita música alta, muita oferta ostensiva de drogas e sexo pago. As praias são legais, particularmente a Quarta e a Quinta, onde não há a muvuca da Primeira, Segunda, e Terceira. Ok, ok, cada um na sua. Se está lotado, é porque muita gente gosta.
Na Ilha de Tinharé, gostei realmente de Garapoá, um vilarejo mais ao sul, onde passei apenas um dia, em uma praia totalmente isolada de tudo, ao sul do vilarejo. Não sou de catar conchas, mas não resisti: caramujos e búzios de 10 cm, em perfeitas condições. Aos montes.
Outro passeio legal é ir para a Praia do Curral, em Valença, de barco. É uma praia oceânica (ou seja, mar bravo) totalmente sem estrutura.

Financial Safety Net in Korea[edit]
The financial safety net in Korea consists of the KDIC, the financial supervisory authorities (Financial Services Commission & Financial Supervisory Service), the Ministry of Strategy and Finance, and the Bank of Korea. To ensure effective cooperation among the financial safety net players, several measures have been put in place.
- There are MOUs signed by the KDIC, financial supervisory authorities, and the Bank of Korea agreeing on joint examinations and sharing of financial information. The MOUs are crucial to achieving balanced financial supervision and exchange of financial information.
- When necessary, the KDIC can request insured institutions and the Financial Supervisory Service to provide data.
- The KDIC can also either request the Financial Supervisory Service to examine a particular financial institution and inform the KDIC of the result, or request the Financial Supervisory Service for a joint examination.
- Also, high-ranking officials from each of the organizations participate in the others' top decision making committee.
Overcoming the Financial Crises[edit]
During the 1997 East Asian financial crisis, the KDIC's adoption of blanket coverage restored the public's confidence in the financial system. The integration of deposit insurers which had previously been scattered in different sectors into one organization (Apr. 1998) enabled further enhancement of public confidence. By preventing bank-runs and boosting financial competitiveness, the KDIC helped to improve foreign investors' confidence in the Korean economy and achieve an early turnaround. The KDIC's decisive response was crucial to overcoming the crisis. Also in the course of the financial restructuring which was undertaken in the wake of the crisis, the KDIC successfully resolved over 500 financial institutions and gained unique expertise in resolution. With reinforced public confidence in deposit insurance, the KDIC went into the recent global financial crisis more prepared. There was no sign of bank-runs. Only five mutual savings banks went bankrupt during 2008-2009. The KDIC decided to expand its coverage to include foreign-currency deposits and other products for additional protection. Also, the KDIC established a Contingency Plan in order to better cope with future crises.
The Basis for the KDIC's Mandates and Powers[edit]
The Depositor Protection Act[edit]
The KDIC's mandates and powers come from the Deposit Protection Act (DPA) which was enacted in Dec. 1995. The purpose of this Act is to contribute to the protection of depositors and maintenance of the stability of the financial system by efficiently operating a deposit insurance system, etc. in order to prevent a situation in which a failed institution is unable to reimburse its depositors. The DPA has an Enforcement Decree as a supporting legislation. The Decree is designed to provide for matters delegated by the DPA and those necessary for its enforcement.
The Special Act on the Management of Public Funds[edit]
To ensure efficient use of public funds as well as to minimize the financial burden on citizens, the Special Act on the Management of Public Funds was enacted in Dec. 2000. The Act lays out how to enhance the objectivity, fairness and transparency of fund raising and management.
Other Acts[edit]
Other laws that provide the basis for the KDIC's mandates and powers include the Act on the Structural Improvement of the Financial Industry, and the Act on the Fund for Repayment of Public Funds.
The Execution of Mandates and Powers[edit]
The Deposit Insurance Committee[edit]
The Deposit Insurance Committee is the highest decision-making body of the KDIC. As such, it deliberates and renders decisions on key matters. It is composed of seven individuals including the President of the KDIC (Chairman), the Vice Chairman of the Financial Services Commission, the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Strategy and Finance and the Senior Deputy Governor of the Bank of Korea. The three remaining committee members are appointees commissioned directly by the Financial Services Commission and the other two are recommended by the Minister of the Ministry of Strategy and Finance and the Governor of the Bank of Korea.
The Board of Directors[edit]
The Board of Directors, as the highest executive body of the KDIC, is composed of one President, one Executive Vice President, four internal Executive Directors, and seven non-Executive Directors. The auditor may express opinions at Board meetings, but cannot participate in the Board's voting process.
Organizational Structure[edit]
As of the end of Sep. 2010, the KDIC is composed of ten departments, five offices and one bureau. The total number of employees stands at 563. This number included general employees, and special employees such as attorneys, doctoral researchers, conservators, bankruptcy estate trustees, examiners, etc.
The Major Functions of KDIC[edit]
Policy and Fund Management[edit]
The KDIC implements deposit insurance policies and manages funds. The funds in the KDIC are divided into the Deposit Insurance Fund Bond Redemption Fund and the (New) Deposit Insurance Fund (DIF). The Redemption Fund was established to complete the financial restructuring and recover public funds injected during the first and second rounds of financial assistance following the 1997 East Asian financial crisis. The new DIF could start with a clean state from then. The annual premium revenue of the DIF in 2009 was KRW 1.24 trillion.
Ongoing Risk Surveillance[edit]
The KDIC identifies troubled financial institutions through on and off-site monitoring and requests financial institutions or supervisory authorities to take appropriate actions to prevent failure.
Support of Insolvent Financial Institutions[edit]
The KDIC supports an insolvent financial institution in accordance with the following four principles: Least Cost Principle, Loss-Sharing Principle, Self-Help Effort Principle and Transparency/Objectivity Principle. And the KDIC usually uses on of two methods: deposit payoff and financial assistance. Financial assistance includes loan extension and fund deposit, purchase of assets and assumption of liabilities, equity investment and contributions.
Resolution of Failed Financial Institutions[edit]
The KDIC resolves a failed financial institution in the least costly manner. Employing a variety of measures from deposit payoff, to purchase & assumption, to the establishment of a bridge bank and to an open bank assistance, the KDIC tries to make the resolution process as orderly and timely as possible. The total number of insured institutions stood at 320, and the amount of insured deposits totaled KRW 2,037,830 billion. (Figures as of June 2009) The coverage limit is KRW 50 million, which is almost USD 45,000, including the principal and interest.
Recovery of Public Funds[edit]
For efficient recovery of public funds injected in insolvent financial institutions, the KDIC can have its staff act as a manager or a trustee of such institutions. Also, the KDIC has the authority to file a liability suit or a damage claim on behalf of insolvent financial institutions.
The KDIC pursues liability claims against former/incumbent employees of insolvent financial institutions for their role in the failure. It also conducts investigations of owners, employees, etc. of default debtor corporations who failed to pay back the money they owed and thus are partially responsible for the insolvency. In addition, the KDIC conducts thorough investigations of concealed properties of insolvency-implicated parties to secure the assets for damage claims against them.
Protection of Deposits[edit]
Types of Insured Institutions[edit]
The KDIC insures banks, financial investment companies, life and non-life insurance companies, merchant banks and mutual savings banks. As of the end of 2009, 321 financial institutions' products were under the protection of the KDIC.
Insurance Coverage[edit]
The KDIC insures bank deposits, customer's deposits for securities trading, individual insurance policies, etc. On the other hand, the KDIC does not insure CDs, RPs, securities, CPs, etc. Also, the deposit insurance excludes deposits by government and insured financial institutions, etc. from its insured products.
Coverage Limit[edit]
The KDIC covers up to 50 million won ($42,823) per depositor. It is 2.5 times of Korea's per capita GDP ($17,074) (Statistics are as of the end of 2009.)
Insurance Premium[edit]
The premium rates are determined on the basis of the average annual balance of deposits in each sector. The rates are 0.08% for banks, 0.15% for financial investment companies, insurance companies and merchant banks and 0.35% for mutual savings banks.
International Cooperation[edit]
Contributions to the IADI[edit]
The KDIC continuously strives to position itself as a global player and strengthen its capacity by enhanceing cooperation with international organizations including International Association of Deposit Insurers (IADI), of which the KDIC is a founding member. The KDIC hosted the 2003 IADI Annual Meeting & Conference. As an Executive Councilmember since the founding of the Association, the KDIC vice-chaired the Research & Guidance Committee (2005-2008) of the IADI. It has also participated in the formation of the global financial regulation as a member of the International Working Group to establish "The Core Principles for Effective Deposit Insurance Systems Methodology." Also, as a chair of the Subcommittee on Handing of a Systemic Crisis, it is leading the research on global financial crises.
The KDIC currently has MOUs on Information Sharing and Mutual Cooperation with nine deposit insurers worldwide.
Global KDIC[edit]
In an effort to share Korea's experience in economic development, the Ministry of Strategy and Finance launched the Knowledge Sharing Program (KSP) in 2004. This technical assistance program draws from Korea's policy-making experience and provides government officials of other countries with research findings, recommendations and training on specific topics relevant to the target country. The KDIC also launched the Global KDIC Program in conjunction with the KSP in 2010. As a first step, the KDIC has participated in the KSP's program to help a foreign government to implement a deposit system, and hosted training programs on how to implement or improve the deposit insurance system.

The bike runs beautifully, I didn't pussyfoot coming over the High Desert Rd, in fact I tend to go faster in the wet, so long as I'm dry. Excellent fuel economy for a R80GS. Fueled up at Rotorua, 250k's to Tahiape, took 15.8 lts. Gives me over 500k's on the tank.
Thank god we fitted new tyres, the screen and hand guards, in hindsight should have fitted the heated grips, but didn't think it would get so cold this time of year. Wrong!

A bit silly, a bit cerebral seeking a kind and insightful partner...
You haven't found me yet so I had to go to Fiji without you but we can go together next time (Look at the enclosed photo, yes, the water is that color blue ... beautiful). Mature lighthearted partner desired. Relaxing on the beach with occasional dips in the water, music, movies and good/fun conversation are some of my favorite things. I would rather describe myself in person, how do you put essence on paper but this being said, I love the company of people and am also comfortable being on my own. I am considered by others to be kind, fun and a loyal friend. I am fortunate that I enjoy the work that I do. On the weekend, I like to relax for a few hours and then eventually get up, have some coffee and perhaps read and then eventually go outdoors. It's important to keep in shape and I go to the gym 3 to 4 times per week. I love to take walks, travel, listen to music, go to the beach, etc. I enjoy drawing especially of the human figure. My relationships are very important and I appreciate the value of good friends....I am looking for someone who values his independence but who is also committed to the relationship. It is important to work at the relationship and have as much fun as possible. Since I work with kids, I appreciate the value and fun of back and forth conversation so enjoy that in a relationship i.e. You talk a bit, I talk a bit, ya know, we take turns :) . We will work together to resolve any conflict that arises and hopefully laugh afterwards. ...........I am 53 but I look 53. I would like to meet someone mature, fun, sincere and serious and who believes in personal responsibility. At this time I am looking for a long term relationship with someone who I would also be lucky enough to have as a best friend. I would like someone who loves to explore life and also enjoys spending time at home. Like Rockefeller and Churchill, they must understand the delight of a good nap. A bit more about my match, I am seeking a long term partner who is mature, kind and insightful.

Get yo freegin flamboyant ass out of my way, and stay like that. You beat some foolish clown who doesn't even know who he is, and me- I almost beat the champion on several occasions recently. No one deserves the shot more. Then my wife and I shall become the first ever husband and wife dual champions around, and she will be heard from shortly ,by the way.

990/990 S Summer tip!
Petrol consumption reduction
Long term inspections
Smoother throttle response
Its good if you can solve several problems with one answer. Those who are interested, please keep reading:
- For those of you who must service your 990cc when no KTM dealer is near.
- Fuel consumption: If you have unusually low gas mileage, and you think its because of your driving style, you should perform the following procedure.
- If your idle is too high or too low, this can procedure can help with this issue. Other positive results can be achieved for engines that die when you are stopped or at low RPM or have high idle.
- If you have to constantly rev the engine during cold winter starts just to keep it running,
this procedure can help.
The solution may lie in a new acquisition of parameters
May sound complicated, but it is not. The low cost is out of proportion to the possible improvement.
- A new comparison of the acquisition parameters needs to be performed at each inspection or re-mapping.
- Should the procedure be incomplete or faulty, it must be repeated again 100% accurately or you can take it to the KTM dealer for a faster resolution.
Prepare for the procedure:
- The tank must have several gallons of gasoline.
- The procedure is performed outdoors (safety precaution probably).
- Do it somewhere where it wont disturb your neighbors. (lol)
- The vehicle and the owner should be in shadow. (stay cool, man)
- A clock must be present
- The bike must be on the center stand.
* We, SUMMER KTM, did it indoors on a dyno in our workshop in Oberhausen. The advantage is that we can keep the room cool and test the bike right there.
What is to be done:
- The 990 is on the center stand and vertical.
- The engine must be cold,.
- It should be cool when performing the procedure. (Dont do it in July at noon in Tucson).
- Start the bike and let it idle for 15 minutes.
- Do not touch the bike while its idling: Do not operate throttle or other functions.
- Do not let the bike idle for less than 15 minutes or more than 16 minutes.
- If the bike stops, restart the 15 minutes again.
