|*Mobile HOA Broadcasting as of March 2014 Learn from our experience* _We just finished 5 days of Live Broadcasting via a Mobile Phone at SXSW in Austin Texas. Come learn what worked well, what we struggled with, and also get a behind the scenes look at the process needed to pull something like this off._ *Mobile Broadcasting via Hangouts on Air* at events like this or any other place worth sharing with the world is getting more accessible to more people via HOA. There were many members of the Hangout Mastery group involved... this was a Team Effort, and it ended up quite well. We had 32 live broadcasts over 6 days... check them out via this playlist link: http://goo.gl/wJLhTZ Special thanks go out to @110581056743381299062 who came 'in real life' to help make this all possible and the awesome assistance remotely from many members of the Hangout Mastery membership group. We'll be following this Public wrap-up show with a Private HOA; which will be a more in-depth look at the process and the equipment for the membership group a day after this show is broadcast. _You can gain access to that level of information by becoming a member._ *Do so now at the lower price* as the monthly rate will go up in April 2014.

|Having trouble viewing the video? Try watching on YouTube instead: http://youtu.be/WICeFHvFaaE NASA has selected its newest explorers! After an extensive year-and-a-half search, eight candidates have been selected to be NASA's newest astronaut trainees to help the agency push the boundaries of exploration and travel to new destinations in our solar system. NASA will discuss the selections at 4 p.m. EDT Monday, June 17, in a Google+ Hangout. During the event, we'll be taking questions from NASA's social media followers. Submit questions on Twitter and Google+ in advance and during the event using the hashtag #askNASA. Before the hangout begins, a thread will be opened on NASA's Facebook page where questions may be posted. The Hangout can be viewed live on NASA's Google+ page or on NASA Television. To introduce the new class of astronauts, we'll be joined by four NASA astronauts - Johnson Space Center Director Ellen Ochoa and Flight Crew Operations Director Janet Kavandi, both of whom are experienced astronauts with seven flights between the two of them; Michael Foreman, a veteran of two missions; and Kate Rubins, selected to join the Astronaut Corps in 2009 - to discuss the selection and training process. The Hangout will also include video introductions of the eight newly selected astronaut candidates. The 2013 astronaut candidate class comes from the second largest number of applications NASA ever has received -- more than 6,000. Half of the selectees are women, making this the highest percentage of female astronaut candidates ever selected for a class. The group will receive a wide array of technical training at space centers and remote locations around the globe to prepare for missions to low-Earth orbit, an asteroid and Mars.

|Having trouble watching the event? Try watching directly on YouTube at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8LI5JiWEfs --------- Have you ever asked a question to someone in space? No? Well now's your chance. In a first for the agency, NASA will host a Google+ Hangout live with the International Space Station on Feb. 22 from 10:30 a.m EST to 11:30 a.m. EST. Google+ Hangouts allow people to chat face-to-face while thousands more can tune in to watch the conversation live on Google+ or YouTube. This unique opportunity will connect you, our fans, with astronauts living and working on the orbiting laboratory 240 miles above the Earth. During the event, several video questions will be selected and answered by astronauts on the space station and on the ground. Additionally, NASA will ask real-time questions submitted by our followers on Google+, Twitter, and Facebook. Unique and original questions are more likely to be selected. You can view the Hangout live on the NASA Google+ page or the NASA Television YouTube channel to watch the astronauts answer the questions. SUBMITTING REAL-TIME QUESTIONS To ask a real-time question during the event on Google+ or Twitter, please use the hashtag #askAstro. You can also post a comment on a thread on NASA's Facebook page that will open for questions on the morning of the event. WATCHING THE GOOGLE+ HANGOUT To join the hangout, and for updates and opportunities to participate in upcoming hangouts, visit NASA's Google+ page at http://plus.google.com/+NASA. During the hangout, astronauts Kevin Ford, Chris Hadfield and Tom Marshburn will answer questions and provide insights about life aboard the station. Station crews conduct a variety of science experiments and perform station maintenance during their six-month stay on the outpost. Their life aboard the station in near-weightlessness requires unique approaches to everyday activities such as eating, sleeping and exercising.

Funny story. I posted video of my daughter trying Under Armour's new MagZip zipper and I ended up getting a call from UA's North America president to thank me for sharing our experience. He tells me the company spent four years perfecting this technology. It's the first time the zipper has changed since 1913. Pretty cool what can happen just by posting something on a blog.

I'm from the smallest state in the United States - Rhode Island! After I graduated with a BA in Psychology, I traveled around Europe for a year using a combination of AirBnB, CouchSurfing, and staying with friends. I had an incredible time. I enjoy traveling with friends, seeing the cultural sights, museums, and exploring new cultures through their foods! I'm now working as a paralegal in civil rights advocacy at a small law firm.

It is unfortunate yet perfectly understandable that Turks are no longer interested in EU affairs. A diminishing majority still favor membership but who can blame them for losing their enthusiasm?
Turkey's growing self-confidence and economic rise in the last years more or less coincided with the meltdown of European economies. There is a combination of sarcasm and schadenfreude when Turkish policymakers now say "The EU is always welcome to join Turkey!"
At the heart of Turkey's resentment towards Europe is the feeling of humiliation. No one in Turkey believes that the EU treats Turkey with respect. It is well known that leading EU countries such as France and Germany have strong reservations about Ankara joining the club. Rightly or wrongly, Turks perceive double standards and Islamophobia when Berlin and Paris talk about a "privileged partnership" with Turkey instead of a full membership. No one so far has been able to convincingly define what privileged partnership looks like. As a result, most Turks see it as "second-class membership." It is probably because of such feelings of European prejudice against their own country that an overwhelming majority of Turks believe that membership is not likely to happen in their lifetime. Recently, the Turkish prime minister pronounced 2023, the centennial of the republic, as a sort of deadline for Turkey's EU membership. The message was clear: there is an end to Turkey's patience.
This is where the recent talk about a British exit, the so-called "Brexit," from the EU becomes relevant for Ankara. British Prime Minister David Cameron will finally give his much anticipated major speech outlining London's approach to the European Union sometime this week. He is under severe pressure from his Conservative Party and probably the majority of the British public to call for a referendum about whether his country should stay in the European Union. At a time when Germany and France seem to be moving forward with plans for a stronger fiscal and banking union to complement the monetary union, Britain is growing increasingly skeptical about its future in Europe. The UK had already opted to stay out of the eurozone when the common currency was created and it is also out of many EU-wide policies such as the Schengen area governing visa rules.
It would of course be absurd for Turkey to support a Brexit from the EU. Yet, such an outcome could pave the road for something interesting for Turkey. Instead of a full divorce, the potential Brexit scenario is likely to create a new type of relationship between London and Brussels. In time, this may provide the blueprint for the "privileged partnership" that France and Germany seem to favor with Turkey. In short, the emergence of a privileged partnership between London and Brussels could serve as a model for Turkish-EU relations as well. The already existing "à la carte" relationship between the EU and the UK could even be codified into a category of membership that would be applicable to other countries opting to be out of the inner-circle of more federalist minded members such as France and Germany.
Turkey and Britain both share similar political cultures in the sense that they are both sovereign conscious countries with strong imperial legacies. They both feel somewhat distant to the post-nationalist and federalist tendencies of Berlin and Paris. If Turkey had been a member, it would have probably sided with the UK rather than with Germany and France on foreign and security matters. Under normal circumstances, it would not be in Turkey's national interest to lose the UK as one of the strongest supporters of Ankara in the European Union.
But one can also see the limits of British influence in the EU. After all, the EU takes decisions by unanimity. And when French or German leaders take decisions on Turkish membership, they hardly feel the urge to consult with London. So who knows, maybe one day Turkey will join the UK with its own referendum on the EU. The question for Turks will be clear: Do you want to wait another generation for an elusive EU membership? Or do you want to be a privileged partner of the EU like the UK?

The monogram is elegant. I think, however, the shipping charge of 5.95 is excessive. Putting the small plastic bag in a sturdy envelope would have been more then sufficient and certainly not 5.95.

What should be done with the teacher that treated an Autistic student in this way?
Assassin~ Badass Buzz Guru 2012/04/25 14:12:08
"Who are you talking to, nobody?" Kelly asked Akian, who sometimes talks to himself. "Knock it off," Jodi chimed in.
According to the video, Akian became upset, and starting crying.
"Go ahead and scream because guess what? You're going to get nothing until your mouth is shut," the classroom official is heard saying. "Shut your mouth."
Does this sound like the type of talk that a teacher should be having with a child with special needs? In Fact the child that those two teachers are talking to is Autistic. He has an IEP and requires a special class. Those teachers teach a class with Autistic children and Children with other special needs.
If you listen to the audio, it gets worse. Much worse. at one point one of the women can be heard calling Aikan a "bastard" The other teacher talks about being drunk and vomiting. They discuss private conversations with the parents in front of the children, and are intentionally cruel to him. What makes this even more disturbing, is this isn't an isolated incident.
More and more frequently we are hearing about this in the news. Teachers of children with special needs being abusive.
This was the case for parents of a special needs student at Miami Trace Middle School in Ohio, who sent their daughter to school with a hidden tape recorder last fall after the girl repeatedly complained about the bullying.
The revelation was shocking: the educators on the recording called the child lazy and dumb, and forced her to run on a treadmill with increasing speed.
"Don't you want to do something about that belly," former teaching aide Kelley Chaffins says in the recording. "Well, evidently you don't because you don't do anything at home. You sit at home and watch TV."
These stories make me wonder, just how often are kids with special needs abused? Because of their disability they are unable to speak out sometimes. Their behavior gets blamed on their disability. Often perhaps, it is never even investigated, and these kids who already face terrific challenges have no voice in the face of torment. It makes me sad to think that stuff like this happens and is allowed to continue. What kind of education system would allow something like this to go on.
Mr. Chaifetz, is outraged, and rightly so that the teacher was NOT FIRED. He says he is not looking for money or planning a suit, he just wants that teacher gone and for her to apologize to his son.
"She betrayed my son and caused him great pain. If some union rule or HR regulation has allowed her to keep her job, then the law needs to be changed so that the next time a teacher bullies a child, especially one with special needs, they will be immediately fired. For me to do nothing would mean I was treating my son with as much disrespect as they had."
What do you think: Should teachers caught acting this way to children be fired?

- Yankee: The A-Hole of PHÆT 2012/04/29 23:16:07She should be fired.this is absolutely horrible and makes myself ashamed of the fact that im part of the human race sometimes. you don't make fun of a kid or bully someone with special needs like that... and the fact that a teacher did is disgusting. this woman should be fired in a heartbeat that's just an awful thing to do. and the fact that they got "tenure" give me a break. this means a teacher can kill a kid and won't get fired? this is an absolute joke and as a democrat, I'm starting to support Chris Christie more if he's going to put an end to the jokes the teachers have become.

- hasher 2012/04/27 11:02:19She should be fired.i have had a son who went to special ed classes since kindergarten. hes 20 now and is completing his education at a transistion center. fortunely all his teachers were wonderful and i cant say enough wonderful things about them. he received a quality education. lots of one onone attention. but this is awful. how could a teacher trained in special ed treat a child this way?? if i were the parent i would make sure this teacher got fired.
- fluer 2012/04/27 02:57:56She should be fired.
- +1I love what I do and it makes me so angry when a teacher acts this way! She needs to be tarred and feathered and run out of town if my honest opinion came true, but of course in this day and age they get a slap on the hand. Our kiddos need the patience of Job and a heart that celebrates the baby steps and encourages our kiddos to believe they can do it. This woman is the opposite of that and needs to be booted out of the profession. How is your son doing now? I certainly hope he has grown into the man he is capable of being.

- RastaFan 2012/04/26 23:44:44I think:+4When did teachers become an untouchable class, in this country?
Teachers have become little more than front line agitators for liberal social policy. Lord knows the quality of their product has done nothing but steadily decline for fifty years. They've developed an unholy alliance with Liberal poiticians. The politicians protect the unions and the teachers indoctrinate the kids with Marxist garbage and shuffle $$$ to the candidates who fight for pro-union policy ..... especially excessive salaries, pensions and unwarranted tenure.
To hell with Marxist teachers unions.
The rise of power within teacher's unions is commensurate with the financial influence they exert on Liberal politicians.
- Yankee:... RastaFan 2012/04/29 23:55:00this is sickening all together. whether you have tenure or your in a union or not this is so wrong and horrible. they're smart enough to know better. people like this shouldn't have a job anywhere near kids let alone teaching them. and talking about puking and getting drunk, cursing out the parents and kids and intentionally hurting their feelings they should be put in jail as well.

- 2468 2012/04/26 21:51:41She should be fired.+2I know I wouldn't have the patience needed to deal with special needs children but whoever is actually doing this job would need the patience and support to do a good job.
It may be a good idea that these classes have two or more adults in the room at all times to keep the children and each other in check.
- Temlakos~POTL~PWCM~JLA~☆ 2012/04/26 20:24:33She should be fired.+4Such an adult should never be let inside a school.
I can tell you exactly what happened. When she grew up, she knew her share of "special needs kids" who were "SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WEEEEEEEEEEEIRD!"
Nobody. Ever. Taught her how to figure out what the weirdness might be about.
Even when she went to her teachers' ed program, no one taught her about autistic kids and how to deal with them. To her, those kids were "SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
So she gets into the classroom, and confronts one of those "SOOOOOOOOOOOOO
WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEIRD!" kids.
So naturally she lets fly with all the things she used to say when she was a kid.
But if you think that's bad: how about the teacher in Tampa, FL, who held a PEER VOTE on an autistic boy and, when the pupils VOTED HIM OUT OF CLASS, actually ENFORCED THE RESULTS of that vote? Since when does a practical lesson in the less savory aspect of ancient Athenian democracy become part of the curriculum?

I just can't imagine people like that being tasked with the care of children, much less being given a second chance. Not to mention, there are many exceptional teachers who get lumped in with @$$hats like that. This is just unbelievable.

Also, it would be useful to have the other side of the story but I don't think it would sway me though.
- jubil8 ... 2468 2012/04/27 04:36:50+2I suppose there IS another side to the story, but I agree with you -- I don't think it's possible that it would be a very GOOD one.
And the fact that ANY organization would protect a person who behaves that way is wrong. I don't care whether it's a union or the Catholic Church or docs protecting a butcher from a malpractice claim.

CHULA VISTA Sitting cross-legged on a table facing a group of attentive archaeology students at Southwestern College recently, ceramics analyst Susan Walter held up a gnarled fragment and challenged her class to identify the artifact. When the correct answer was not forthcoming, she informed them it was part of a cuspidor, or spittoon.
"Ewww!" shrieked the 25 students in unison. Walter lost control of the room for several seconds.
College kids. They're getting younger every day.
These coeds in particular were all of 10 years old. They were among the 400-plus students attending College for Kids, a summer enrichment program Southwestern has been offering elementary school children for 38 years.
Offered in two 10-day sessions, College for Kids aims to teach new skills and provide students an opportunity to explore possible careers. In addition to archaeology, Southwestern College is offering workshops in beadmaking, cooking, crime scene investigation, visual art, web movies and robotics. One workshop enables students to work in cooperative groups to design all aspects of a futuristic city.
"Our purpose is to provide a positive, early-on college experience where the kids can take fun, academic-based classes and learn new skills in a college environment," said Steve Tadlock, director of the program.
Southwestern's program is co-sponsored by the six South County school districts: Chula Vista Elementary, Coronado Unified, National, San Ysidro, South Bay Union and Sweetwater Union High School. The program is offered to students entering fifth through ninth grades and who have been identified by their schools as gifted or talented.
Most of the workshops are held on the main campus in Chula Vista. This summer, about 35 sixth-grade GATE students from San Ysidro are participating in a robotics class at Southwestern's San Ysidro campus.
Many of the instructors are K-12 teachers or, like archaeologist Walter, experts from the community. Manuel Paul, superintendent of San Ysidro School District, was one of the first program instructors.
"I taught a karate class back in 1977," Paul said. "It was my way of being involved in education beyond our district-only programs."
Creating a fossil model by rolling out a thin sheet of clay with a rolling pin then swabbing it with terra-cotta-colored paint, Timothy Tucker, 10, of Discovery Charter in Chula Vista, said he knows for sure he wants to be an archaeologist when he grows up. He appreciates learning from a pro such as Walter.
"I've been into Indiana Jones and fossils and hieroglyphics," Timothy said. "But that's mostly from books. I like learning about all the equipment an archaeologist uses."
Jazmin Morales, 10, who is heading into fifth grade at Lincoln Acres, isn't sure a career excavating is for her, but the benefits of College for Kids are not lost on her.
"It's really fun meeting new friends," she said. "And I like learning things that might help me with a job later."
Chrysanne Weber, 10, is going into the fifth grade at Clear View Elementary when school resumes next month. She, too, has enjoyed making new friends and trying to figure out what the artifacts are that Walter showed the group.
But in a competitive spirit that will serve her well for the rest of her working life, she said: "I like learning things that other kids aren't learning."

CALGARY, Alberta (AP) — Mikael Backlund scored twice and added an assist to help the Calgary Flames rout the Anaheim Ducks 7-2 on Wednesday night.
Backlund set up Mike Cammalleri in the slot for a power-play goal at 11:28 of the first that chased Ducks starter Jonas Hiller, then beat Frederik Andersen two minutes later to make it 4-0.
BOX SCORE: Flames 7, Ducks 2
Backlund added his second of the night 1:31 into the second period, this time shorthanded. Firing a wrist shot past Andersen as he broke in alone off the wing, it was the Flames' second short-handed goal of the night and NHL-leading 11th of the season. Backlund has four of them, tying him for top spot with Boston's Brad Marchand and Tampa Bay's Tyler Johnson.
Mark Giordano, TJ Galiardi, Ladislav Smid and Corban Knight with his first NHL goal also scored for Calgary. Andrew Cogliano and Nick Bonino scored for Anaheim. The Pacific Division-leading Ducks are 0-2-0 in their last four games.
The Flames entered the night tied for the league-lead in one-goal games. The unusual blowout offensively for the home side was embraced by the crowd announced at 19,829, who gave the team a boisterous standing ovation after the first and second periods and once again when the game ended.
The crowd got one last treat when Knight, from nearby High River, scored his first NHL goal with 1:57 left.
Flames rookie goalie Joni Ortio made 20 saves to improve to 3-3-0.

In a Brothel Atop Street 63
The intimate face of slavery in Cambodia -- where buying and selling children is a family business.
After he was in Thailand for a while, he flew to Cambodia to renew his visa and took the time to visit a brothel outside Phnom Penh known for having young girls. There he met Nee, the older daughter, who was then 13. Mark liked Nee a lot, maybe he even loved her, and he asked her if she wanted to get out of there and go with him. She said yes, for sure, and so he bought her out of the brothel for $1,500 and paid her mother $1,000. And then he married her and bought a big house and let 10 members of her family move in.
He put Nee and Auk in school. He taught their little nieces and nephews how to ride bicycles. He took them to the beach on weekends. He loved it.
"You know, it's funny," he says. "It was like I went through this Lolita syndrome. I was in la-la land for two years. Maxed out all my credit cards. Or, part of it, do you ever do something just because you can do it and you think it's the wildest thing and you want to do it? I mean to buy someone out of a brothel was so wild, something you read about in the National Geographic in the Sudan or something."
The thing he didn't do, however, was give the girls' mother enough money to pay off all her debts, which at 20 percent a month interest grew very quickly, and the mother, with her daughters out of the business, had no way of covering it. Mark claims she convinced Nee to divorce Mark and go work in the higher-paying Taiwanese brothels, which she did. Then, according to Mark, the mother tried to steal the home away from him while he was out of town. Then she filed charges against him for the crime of debauchery—sleeping with a child under the age of 14—and that cost him a lot of time and worry and $2,000 to pay off the judge. Still, he doesn't hate the mother.
"She's a fucking bitch, excuse my French, she causes all sorts of problems. She's an evil, evil woman, but I kind of like her a little bit. Even after she took me to court, cost me thousands of dollars, almost sent me to prison for years, when I saw her I gave her a kiss. Like I said, a flaw in my character."
Mark openly admits to all of this. He speaks as if he has no guilt or shame about having had sex with a minor, because in his mind he was doing nothing but trying to help her and her family. And he loved her, maybe, he's not sure. Plus, he says he feels okay about talking because he's been given immunity from prosecution by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security in return for helping them obtain evidence for the conviction of another American pedophile with a much worse record.
I meet the Homeland Security officer Mark is working with. He comes over to Lisa's office for a chat, and I ask him why the Department of Homeland Security is in Southeast Asia tracking down pedophiles.
He says, "Because they are terrorists."
"Terrorists?" I ask, somewhat dumbfounded.
"Domestic terrorists," he says with some hesitation.
"Domestic terrorists? I've never heard the term." And that is the end of the interview. He leaves in a huff.
Is this off the subject?
ACCORDING TO THE United Nations, human trafficking includes "the recruitment, transportation, transfer, harboring or receipt of persons, by means of threat or use of force or other forms of coercion, of abduction, of fraud, of deception, of the abuse of power or of a position of vulnerability or of the giving or receiving of payments or benefits to achieve the consent of a person having control over another person...." It goes on and on, passing through a difficult section about the selling of people for use as sexual slaves and ending with "the removal of organs."
Off the record, people within the U.S. State Department in Cambodia will tell you they don't know what human trafficking is or how it happens. And yet their job is to get rid of it. They say they have more anti-trafficking money than they know what to do with, that there aren't enough aid workers in the country to give the money to, and consequently much of the money is being given to faith-based initiatives. They call this cronyism, like it's an infectious disease.
The other side of this, however, is that Cambodia is actually way fucked up. Mothers really do sell their kids. Little babies are sold for adoption, girls as young as eight are sold for their virginity, boys are sold to beg on the streets of Bangkok and Saigon, or thrown onto fishing boats, never to come back. It happens, a lot, and nobody does anything to stop it. Not really. Cambodia is the first country in the world to create a special police task force to fight human trafficking, and in the four years of its existence, the number of arrests for sexual trafficking offenses has increased from 40 to over 600 a year. This sounds like a positive statistic until you realize that the justice system in Cambodia is just a pretense for extracting money from the accused, who are expected to buy their way out of jail. A debauchery rap now costs $20,000. The accused hires a lawyer, from jail, and the lawyer pays off the court clerk, the prosecutor, and the judge. The records of the court proceedings—like, for instance, the number of successful convictions for trafficking-related offenses—these documents are said to rest in the possession of one man, National Chief of Police Hok Lundy, and he has not been inclined to release them.
The political system in Cambodia is shaped like a pyramid, where the people on the top can commit unspeakable crimes and the people on the bottom have no rights at all. Money, in the form of bribes and extortions, flows upward through the pyramid, and violence comes back down. This is the cultural mechanism of impunity. It's where the slaves come from. The U.S. State Department has published in its 2004 report on human trafficking that high-ranking members of the Cambodian government are directly involved in, and profit from, the sale of human beings—among the aid workers monitoring the trafficking, this is a well-known fact. The names are known but they are not spoken. There is silence in the face of evil, and under this silence the phrase "human trafficking" becomes a bullshit term, propaganda, a way of labeling something we don't understand in order to throw a lot of money at it while loudly saying we are winning the war against it.
I'll tell you about two places I saw. One was an open-air market for girls at a place called the Chicken Farm outside Koh Kong, a town on the southwestern coast. There's a river and a port, ships coming and going from the Gulf of Siam. The road coming into Koh Kong is dirt and impassable at times during the rainy season, but the road going out of Koh Kong, over a bridge and across the border into Thailand, is concrete and busy with truck traffic. The Chicken Farm is out in a field near the river, or that's how I imagined it. I couldn't see a thing, the night was so dark—no moon, no stars, just the dim outlines of six or seven huts and the doorways glowing red, small shrines lit by candles out front, the smell of burning incense. The girls sat in pods of light from fluorescent tubes—six in front of me, eight next door, five across the road. They came from the farmlands of Cambodia and Vietnam, 12 to 16 years old, all for sale. "Cheap, good price," the pimp tells me. "You want boom boom, $15. You want take, you keep, no problem. Good price, you say."
The other place was on Street 63 in Phnom Penh, right in the middle of the city, not far from the U.N. offices and the shopping mall. It's a room up two flights of steep steps, a room that could have once been a classroom or even a small dance studio, and there are 20 girls, fifth-graders, sitting in chairs in a big circle around me. Their faces covered with white makeup, purple lipstick. All from Vietnam. None are virgins. One is straddling my thigh, with her arms around my neck, and I can't look at her and I'm trying not to hear the few words she's saying. The others are laughing and giggling with each other, and when I make eye contact, their smiles turn to fear. They are supposed to flirt with me, but they're not even old enough to know how to flirt and they're scared—scared that I might choose them and scared that I might not and they'll be beaten. At that moment, I would have rather been almost anywhere else, but to make it worse, in walks another man, an American by his dress, early 60s, like he'd just come in from playing golf. He sits down next to me but does not make eye contact, and at that point I stop breathing. I'm there to look, but he's there for the real thing and I should hold it together and try to talk to him, find out what he thinks he's doing, but I bolt for the door and the girls all instantly freak out and start screaming in terror. They stand in front of me and I have to pull arms off my waist and tear hands off my shirt, and just as I get to the stairs, the pimp blocks my way and says I can't leave. I grab him by the arms and hold him out over the stairs and ask him if he wants me to let go. This calms him down and I run out of there, demons flying, chasing me out the door.
It's creepy, for sure, but the thing that's really unnerving is that it happens right out in the open. It's no secret to anybody, and yet no one does anything to stop it. You walk away from it, and there's a tearing sound, like the ripping of fabric that goes on and on and will not stop.
Lisa is making a video documentary about human trafficking, an Asia Foundation/USAID project for the Cambodian television audience. She wanted to go to these places with me, but she couldn't, not without setting off all the alarms, so to speak. So I tell her about what I saw and she freaks out on me. She's my guide, really the best I could ask for, but she sometimes breaks down in tears. I think this is common among NGO workers and diplomats in Cambodia. They spend their days trying to help people, trying to rebuild the country, and many spend their nights trying to drink and dance away the despair that comes from knowing their efforts are failing. The men often descend into hard drugs and prostitutes; the women become lonely and emotionally wounded. It's tough—tough to sleep through the hot humid nights, tough to face the street in the morning.
I tell Lisa what I saw and she falls apart. She has a number of powers—charm and grace and also the talent or curse of the empath. She can feel what others feel, and apparently just my descriptions can make her become one of the Vietnamese girls with white faces.
"I think they're reptilian," she says. "They use that part of their brain. You're always on the bottom tier, always a pain in your stomach. You ever been hungry for days at a time? Do you know what that feels like?"
She's been here more than four years. She's made friends with a lot of people—from kids who scavenge the garbage to the bodyguards of the prime minister, from pedophiles to State Department officials, and lately many of them have been telling her it's time for her to leave, if not for good, at least for a while. She stays here because this place opened a hole inside her. She doesn't know what's inside the hole, she just knows it hurts and the only way to respond is with love and compassion. This is her job, her real job. But tonight there's crying and yelling and a lot of expressed anger. She's my guide, the best.
Again, maybe this is off the subject.

Baby's First Summer: Fishing With DadMonica Bielanko
March is a flirt. A high school girl that taunts you with a bit of hot here and there, but never really delivers. Last week there were a few days in which the mercury rose to the seventies. As I type this the thermometer shows 40-something.
I've had two winter babies now and the shock of bringing home a newborn is made all the worse by the weeks and weeks of gray, freezing days. My best friend has had summer babies and within weeks of their births she was out and about, listening to concerts under the stars with the baby lying nearby. We're lucky if we get to the park once a week and even then it's an hour long affair to bundle both kids against the cold.
Which is why I'm anticipating summer like nobody's business. The options for outdoor activities are endless, but one of our very favorites is fishing with dad.
Serge drives up into the mountains and hikes a good two miles or so back along a river. I give him a three hour head start so he can get some real fishing time in and then I load up the car with snacks, diapers and our baby carrier. Once there I strap Violet to my back and enjoy the workout. It really works out because he gets some quality fishing time in and we get to hang with dad. I'm not sitting at home feeling resentful that he's out and about without me.
My advice to new mothers is this: never let something seem overwhelming. At first I was afraid to take the baby on such a long hike by myself. But after doing it a couple times I realized how important it is to get out there and do all the things you used to do before the baby is born. You need to feel like yourself! So if something seems difficult, try it anyway! Get yourself a good baby carrier and get going as soon as it's warm enough!

Story Titles by Zaeta-KWatch
©2012-2016 Zaeta-K
The (WIP) titles of the seven short stories I'll be fleshing out over the course of forever.
Interteresting. I might need to do the same for mine of what time period my stories take place
So I'm geussing that Tryst is set in the pre-war? or is it set during the after-war and they just started from year 0 after it ended?
I can see how you'd think that, but the stories aren't told in a chronological order
It just references the Seraphim from Tempesion haha.
ahh so then instead of keeping track of day month and year then jsut count the years lol and yes Last Home Recording would seem like a sad story lol
Each year is 500 days made up of 25 hours, so they still have a more detailed way of breaking things down
Last Home Recording makes me feel really sad for some reason.
Out of curiousity, would it be safe to assume that the Ys at the end of each number are years? Or are they something else?
Correct, they are a form of date
Okay, I was a little confused for a second there by it, first time I've seen any one use a date that way. But anyway, I have to say, like much of your other work the titles are actually quite intriguing (or however you spell that).
Yes, the "y" is specific to my universe as a way of dating things so I'm actually a little glad you were a bit confused X) Thanks for the kind words

This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Have a Cricut? Baby Bug, Create, Expression? Even Cricut Cake? If you do, then you need Design Studio. Design Studio, or DS, lets you weld shapes to create your own designs, you can weld letters together to create words. However, the best feature I have found on it is that you can accurately measure what you need so that you're not cutting several times just to get the right size. This wastes both blade and cardstock, no?
Design Studio eliminates that. You can measure the area you need the title, then create your title in DS so that it fits that space. SO easy! Also if you are creating a layered character, you can lay all the pieces out on the mat, cut your cardstock accordingly, and cut all the pieces out in one fell cut.
Personally, I cannot seem to operate my Cricut anymore without Design Studio.
I bought the Cricut Design Studio software about two years ago. It just came out. I was so excited. I loaded it right away and have loved it every since.
The cartridge library has every cartridge released and can be updated with the new ones as they come out. What I really like was that I could use images from every cartridge to see what I liked before buying the cartridge itself.
Yes, you do need the cartridges to cut the images but not to play and create on your computer. I reccommend that if you buy the software you also spend a little extra money of the Cricut Jukebox too. The jukebox saves you from having to switch cartridges during the cutting process.
This software lets you take your current cartridges and sort of re-vamp what they can do. My favorite function is being able to connect letters and objects to where they will cut as 1 whole object. You can take simple font cartridges and this software together and the possibilities are endless. Being able to make more complex and different designs makes it easier to embellish with just paper.
I got this product so I could make connected titles... and now I am connecting images from different cartridges... so much fun... I have a lot of fun with this. I also use it when I am just cutting singles images... because it helps me to see how it will cut on the mat!

julian van winkle
Julian P. Van Winkle, III, is the third generation Van Winkle to produce bourbon whiskey in Kentucky. His "Pappy Van Winkle's Family Reserve" consistently receives top marks and is arguably the most sought after in the country. He values quality above all and his adherence to his grandfather Pappy's motto, "We make fine bourbon. At a profit if we can, at a loss if we must. But always, fine bourbon," is unparalleled in the American beverage market. Production is increasing slightly, but Julian has joked that this is due in part "to try not to have quite so many people mad at him."

Agree completely with other reviews. Perfect location, excellent for two people, had all facilities. Staff were very helpful in making booking and in checking in. Good food at reasonable prices in restaurant attached to hotel immediately opposite. Very nice terrace on which furniture could do with updating (weather not great so did not effect us)
