Many people, including Israelis and Palestinians, are asking me what will happen
after September. The most accurate answer I can think of is
"October."The idea that whatever happens in September will produce
immediate changes on the ground is irresponsible because it raises expectations
to dangerous levels. The most important thing that should not happen after
September is a new round of violence. That should be avoided at all
costs, and both sides must take responsibility so that it does not
occur.Prior to September, the best thing that could occur is for the
parties to return to the negotiating table. In order for that to take place,
there must be a seriously prepared table set up by responsible members of the
international community, led by the United States. The table must be set with
the parameters delineated by President Barack Obama last month in his two Middle
East speeches. My suggestion would be for the president, in the framework
of the Quartet, to issue invitations to the parties with those parameters
specifically framed as the terms of reference. The Quartet should also agree on
a new mediator to replace George Mitchell, whose task will be not only to
convene the talks but to serve as an active mediator in any dispute. The role of
the mediator must be to allow the parties to present their positions, and then
to propose bridging proposals.

A festival that was born in a Beckenham back garden and has expanded to take over a farm outside Bromley is on course to sell out.
It will be the first time in its nine year history that LeeFest has reached capacity.
Run entirely by young volunteers and staged at Highams Hill Farm from July 11 to 13, it has given a stage to bands like Bastille and London Grammar just before they hit the big time.
This year, the headline acts are Frightened Rabbit, The Cribs and Dan Le Sac vs Scroobius Pip.
LeeFest was created by Lee Denny, 26, who put on a festival in his parents' garden while they were on holiday.
Lee said: "We are delighted to be approaching a sell out. It is a great achievement for us, and very positive news for our charity partners."
Profits from this year's festival will go to the Jimmy Mizen Foundation.
Go to leefest.org.uk
- We chatted to one of the World's greatest DJs - Andy C - about South West Four 2016
- Pigs can fly: We spoke to Charlie Simpson about Busted's reunion ahead of shows at The O2 and Sandown Park
- Circa Waves join LeeFest bill alongside glitter wrestling, beach parties and burlesque
- Croydon rapper Loyle Carner - following in the footsteps of Bastille and Clean Bandit at LeeFest

So Donovan McNabb choked YET AGAIN last night against the Cowboys. This was a crucially important game for the Eagles to win, in an effort to make the playoffs and put to bed the T.O. controversy which has dominated the sports news the past couple weeks. The Eagles as a team were pulling it together, with guys like Dawkins and Westbrook playing their hearts out and dominating the Cowboys. But in the last couple minutes of the game, Donovan handed Dallas an interception that lost the game for Philly, 21-20. He's the ultimate choke artist. We've seen it in the NFC chamionship game several times. We saw it in the Superbowl. He's a decent quarterback, but when the chips are down he can't get it done.
I like McNabb, I think he's a standup guy. He's funny and mature and a good leader except for the choking. I think T.O. is a total egocentric nutjob and he needed to be kicked to the curb. No way do I want him back. People in this town say "Ya gotta bring T.O. back because it's all about winning and he gets it done on the field." I say you need a team unit to win games and T.O. would only destroy the rest of the team and make Donovan look even worse. Go play for the Raiders. Go play for the Cowboys. Get outta Philly and let us get back to the business at hand.

You hear McDonalds has a new hamburger? It's called the "McNabb". The cashier throws it either at your feet or to the guy in line behind you. The warning label on the side of the package says "may result in choking 99% of the time."

Is this a good time to tell you that I have always been a HUGE Cowboy fan??

The History of Britannia
- His Royal Majesty, King George V (1865-1936)
- King George V at the wheel of Britannia in 1931. According to "The J-Class Yachts - by Ian Dear", this is most probably a publicity photograph as during the 1930's the King never took the helm in a race. (Photo by: The Field)
- King George V at the wheel of Britannia with Philip Hunloke
- "Discipline was always strict, and therefore happy, in Britannia. When racing nobody may speak except to give, repeat, or pass an order. All hands, if not employed about a sheet or halyard, must lie prone upon the weather deck, heads below the rail." The King's Sailing Master, by Douglas Dixon (Photo by: Unknown)
- "King George did always take his turn on deck with his mariners, and, because he maintained that he himself was but one of the racing crew, he always, when racing, wore a seaman's round cap rather than the 'cheese cutter' of an officer." The King's Sailing Master, by Douglas Dixon. (Photo by: Unknown)
- When asked about the King and his attitude towards the crew, Smoker remarked that the King was a gentleman. In fact, he said the King remarked once that, "We are all different sized, well oiled cogs that keep my yacht sailing at optimum speed and safety. That is why I employ this crew." Fisherfolk to Royal Yacht and The Americas Cup - by Dave Jordan. (Photo by: Unknown)
- "This year the King was much at sea…taking his turn on deck like a common sailor…" A peep at Pepys' diary. (Photo by: Unknown)

- Philip Hunloke at the wheel of Britannia. Alongside him are Captain Albert Turner and Edgar Aggis, fo'c'sle caterer. (Photo: Captain Albert Turner)
- Some of Britannia's crew. They served her year after year under Captain Turner. The bo'sun, Ernie Friend, reading the newspaper, was drowned during a race, one of the few fatal accidents to occur during the 'Big Boat' era. (The J-Class Yachts - Ian Dear) (Photo by: Turner)

- Britannia under Bermudan rig, 1935. (Photo by: Unknown)
- Britannia's last journey down the slip after she was stripped of her spars and fittings to prepare her for her scuttling, 1936.

Night Sky
Sun: Daylight Saving came to an end at 2am on April 1st and the lower elevation of the Sun will become quite noticeable as the month progresses.
Moon: Full Moon is on the 7th and Last Quarter falls on the 13th. New Moon occurs on the 21st with First Quarter following on the 29th. The Moon appears between Saturn and Spica on the 7th and very close to the red star, Antares, on the evening of the 10th.
Planets: Mercury has its best morning apparition for the year, rising around two hours before the Sun. Look for a bright yellow star low in the north-east, just before 6am. On the 23rd, Mercury will be within two degrees of Uranus.
Venus remains in the north- western evening sky, setting after 7.30pm. Jupiter appears a short distance away, further west and closer to the horizon. At the start of April, Venus passes near the Pleiades.
Mars is in the evening sky, being due north at 9pm. Look for a very bright orange star. Close by is the blue-coloured Regulus, from the constellation of Leo.
Jupiter is sinking into the twilight and after the 20th, the giant planet will be difficult to locate.
Saturn is well placed for observation, as it comes to opposition on the 16th, rising as the Sun sets. The planet's North Pole is tilted towards us, making the Rings quite easy to see in a small telescope. Throughout the month, Saturn is a few degrees below Spica.
Stars and Constellations: If we look northwards, Castor and Pollux, the two main stars of Gemini, stand out. To their east is Cancer, and, just on the meridian lies Regulus, the brightest star of Leo the Lion.
Virgo is now clear of the eastern horizon, with its chief star, Spica, appearing midway up the north-eastern sky.
In the west, Orion is now beginning to set, followed by Canis Major, the Great Dog. As the evening progresses, Scorpius, with the ever-bright Antares, begins to rise.
The Milky Way runs south-east to north-west, with the Southern Cross and the Pointers rising higher in the heavens.
Canopus and Achernar are the only bright stars in the south- western quadrant.

"The Sing Off" champs Home Free bring a cappella to country
Thanks to the combined musical efforts of Straight No Chaser, "Glee" and "Pitch Perfect" (not to mention maybe a bit of nostalgia for the old "Where In the World is Carmen Sandiego?" theme song), a cappella music has become a legitimate pop cultural phenomenon.
Oddly enough, however, while pop and a cappella are pretty much intertwined, the Venn diagram of country music and instrument-free crooning has so far included two very separate, non-overlapping circles. That is until the last season of NBC's "The Sing Off," which saw the Minnesota-based country a cappella quintet Home Free take the stage, and the title, back in December.
Now, just over a month after releasing their first album "Crazy Life," they're on "The Sing Off" tour with fellow season four competitors VoicePlay and The Filharmonic, as well as season three singers – and Wisconsin natives – The Fannin Family. Before they take The Pabst Theater stage for two shows Thursday night, I talked to Home Free tenor Rob Lundquist about the group's origins, its time on "The Sing Off," and why country music and a cappella just haven't gotten along.
OnMilwaukee.com: How did you guys come together?
Rob Lundquist: The group started back in 2000. Chris and Adam (both Rupp) formed the group just out of high school. They were in college at the time. They started off with a few guys, and it just kind of snowballed into a career. They met me about six years ago after I was done with a group called Four Shadow out of Minneapolis that had just broken up. They needed a tenor, so I joined the group.
We met Tim (Foust) about five years ago. We had known about him for a long time. He had been in a bunch of different a cappella groups, so his reputation made it so that we gave him a call to see if he knew of any basses that would be interested. And he said, "Well, I'm not really doing anything right now if you want me?" And we were like, "Yes please."
And then we met Austin (Brown) on a Royal Caribbean cruise ship about two years ago. He was one of the production singers, and he blew us away. We had gotten pretty close with the cast, and he filled us in that he was a big a cappella fan and wanted to do that at some point. At the time, one member – Matt Atwood – was planning on leaving so we asked if he wanted to fill in, and he said yes. And we then auditioned for the show, like, right after that.
OMC: When did you audition for the show?
RL: It would've been like May.
OMC: It sounds like you guys were kind of still assembling together at that time. What gave you the confidence to try out and think you could do well on the show?
RL: Well, the four of us, besides Austin, had been singing together for four years, and Austin is such a professional, we really had no doubt in our minds that we could make the show. Our goal going into it was, "Let's just make it past the first round." We definitely did that, which was cool. But yeah, we knew we had something special with Austin.
OMC: What was it like being on the show?
RL: It was a lot of work, but it was so worth it. A regular day could run anywhere from 10 to 14 hours, and it was all learning music and learning choreography. Each group had to learn three songs every week: the opener, the song that our group was going to do and then we all had to learn the Ultimate Sing Off. So that was a lot of material to do in a week.
We were working non-stop, but man, it was so worth it the day of the taping. It was just amazing, performing in front of three of our idols. I grew up listening to Shawn Stockman. Boyz II Men was everything to me, so being able to be in front of those guys was very surreal.
OMC: Was it intimidating at all facing the judges, knowing the judges that year were deciding the winner?
RL: It really was. Like I said, I'm a huge fan of Shawn Stockman. Our first show, we did "Cruise" by Florida Georgia Line, and at one point, I made eye contact with Shawn Stockman. He was nodding and going, "yeah," and we made eye contact. I was just, like, "this is my life right now."
OMC: How do you guys put together your arrangements?
RL: I got to give a lot of the credit to Chris and Tim for that. Both of those guys do the bulk of the arranging. So they'll sit down, figure it out and put it on paper – or Finale for that matter. Then they'll send it to all of us, and we'll learn our parts. Then we'll come together and rehearse. Each one of us will say the parts that we like and which parts we kind of want to change a little bit. It's proved to work out pretty well.
OMC: It's interesting because country music isn't a huge genre in a lot of a cappella music. I mean, just looking at the lineup from your season on "The Sing Off," it was all pretty much pop music across the board. Why do you think country music hasn't hooked on as much in a cappella?
RL: It hasn't. We're kind of one of the first groups to really focus on it. It's surprising because country music is all about harmony, going way back to The Oak Ridge Boys and The Statler Brothers and things like that. They were just doing it with instruments. So I'm not sure why it hasn't. I think it's going to now, and I'm glad that we're the ones who could kind of be the pioneers of it, I guess. It's a cool place to be.

Who won the leaders' election debate?
Relevant offers
It was the much-anticipated first clash between John Key and David Cunliffe on the campaign trail.
Both leaders had a lot riding on it - Key, to regain his momentum after being hit by the Dirty Politics bombshell, and Cunliffe to turn around a lacklustre campaign.
But what Cunliffe v Key mostly resembled by the end was a slug-fest - and Key seemed uncharacteristically rattled.
> Share this story on Facebook
Both leaders would have walked away claiming victory in the TVNZ debate however - Cunliffe because it was his first chance to show he could foot it with Key, and even score points off him, and Key because a TVNZ online poll declared him the clear winner at 61 per cent to 39 per cent.
According to TVNZ 45,898 voted in the poll, of which 34,802 were texts, although the voting system did crash.
But Cunliffe appeared more composed at the start, possibly thanks to taking the day off the campaign trail to prepare.
Key, on the other hand, appeared determined to play it cool by doing his usual round of media events and shopping malls in the morning, then claiming he planned to ''shoot some hoops'' with son Max in the afternoon.
As the debate warmed up Cunliffe may have turned off some viewers by interrupting and talking over the top of Key.
The first part of the debate was set down for policy - but Dirty Politics and justice minister Judith Collins appeared to set the tone.
Key was put on the ropes about reports a Judith Collins loyalist approached NZ First leader Winston Peters about working with her.
Key has continued to insist that allegations in the recent Dirty Politics book do not matter to ordinary New Zealanders. He played down Collins' behaviour by saying everyone makes mistakes.
Cunliffe accused Key of wilful blindness in ignoring her behaviour - and said she would have been sacked on his watch.
The debate then moved to the economy. Key attacked Cunliffe's spending promises, pointed to the Green Party request for an audit of Labour's numbers and said the potential coalition partners ''can't agree on anything'' - including what the top tax rate is.
An unruffled Cunliffe said Labour will have the finance portfolio and would guarantee wage rises. He said staying in surplus is a bottom line. There were 32,000 less jobs under National, he said.
Quizzed about whether National will offer tax-cuts during the next parliamentary term, Key said: ''I hope so.''
Cunliffe said there isn't enough money to offer New Zealanders ''a block of cheese.''
After days of dodging questions about whether Labour will buy back asset sales, Cunliffe said: ''There is not fiscal headroom to buy back all the assets.''
After the debate, National complained that Cunliffe got some facts wrong, including his claim that Treasury had cut its growth forecasts in half.
In the budget, growth rates were forecast to be 4 per cent, 3 per cent, 2.1 per cent and 2.1 per cent over four years.
The pre-election fiscal update put those numbers at 3.8 per cent, 3 per cent, 2.2 per cent and 2.1 per cent.
Following the debate, neither leader would commit to a winner.
Cunliffe said he was pleased with his performance, but admitted to being a "little nervous" in the beginning.
"It was my first time up, so I don't have much to judge it by. I think, in the end, I've done justice to the needs of New Zealanders."
Cunliffe was fiery on the subject of foreign investment. But he shifted his position on the sale of 13,800-hectare Lochinver Station near Taupo to Chinese company Shanghai Pengxin.
When the issue was raised he said Labour would block the sale if elected, however he has accepted this might not be allowed under the current law.
He said: "Ministers considering Lochinvar in an incoming Government would have to act within the law. If we can change the law in time to prevent the sale within the law we will. Otherwise, they've got pretty wide discretion to reflect the concerns of New Zealanders."
Cunliffe was also quizzed on the number of $360,000 homes Labour would supply under its Kiwibuild policy. "That's because it is simply impossible before we have the breakdown of the land that is available and that's something frankly you can only do in Government...I won't give false precision."
Cunliffe defended his repeated interjections. "We'd been briefed beforehand that there was no set time for individual speakers and [moderator] Mike [Hosking] invited us to parry and play. That was the kind of debate that he told us he wanted."
And he wouldn't be drawn on the TVNZ viewer poll that declared Key the victor. "I understand that their website crashed so I guess we will never know what the real numbers were."
Key said the debate was scrappy. "I think at home when the three parties are talking at one time...he didn't rattle me but he was talking over me quite a bit and I know it's very hard to listen when that's happening."
Key said Cunliffe's predecessor Helen Clark was much stronger on policy.

Activists consider new ballot measures at Prop 8 strategy meeting

Marriage is a human rights issue – and it should not be allowed to the public (who are so susceptible to relgious extremism) to decided on what rights a certain minority is allowed. It is illegal to demand that women or black people should receive less rights in the constitution. Why is it acceptable that the heterosexual majority can decide on what rights gay people should have. It is worryingly close to facist extremism. I sincerely hope that Prop 8 is overturned. If it is not then the authorities will have no-one but the general electorate to blame in case of violent protest of the insertion of facism into to California constitution.

Donna Bogatin reports that Google's CEO Eric Schmidt claims that click fraud is "self-correcting." Meaning,
Eventually, the price that the advertiser is willing to pay for the conversion will decline, because the advertiser will realize that these are bad clicks, in other words, the value of the ad declines, so over some amount of time, the system is in-fact, self-correcting. In fact, there is a perfect economic solution which is to let it happen.
So the "let it happen" quote, in terms of Eric Schmidt saying let click fraud happen, has been buzzing through the blogging community. Schmidt writes off click-fraud as the "cost of doing business." Maybe he is just very confident of the new AdWords quality scoring?

Tandana Foundation Inc
Rating: 4.97 stars 29 29 reviews 2,520
2933 Lower Bellbrook Rd. Spring Valley OH 45370 USA
To empower individuals of various cultural backgrounds with an increased awareness of the world, other cultures, themselves, and an expanded sense of their possibilities; To promote positive, caring interactions between people of different backgrounds and encourage consideration and lessening of global inequalities; To promote respect and responsibility toward one's self, all people, and the Earth.
We received 501c3 status in late 2006 and since then have coordinated thirteen volunteer programs in Ecuador and two in Mali, which have allowed approximately 140 North Americans to volunteer their services to help 17 rural communities in Ecuador and 2 villages in Mali, while learning about the local cultures and forming cross-cultural friendships. Ten of these programs were focused on health care and allowed our volunteer healthcare providers to treat over 2,000 patients in 17 communities. One program was focused on education and allowed us to provide free English courses for approximately 50 local students. Other programs have allowed us to support community projects such as the paving of a patio for a community center, the construction of a bathroom for a kindergarten, the planting of fruit trees in a school garden, and the building of a storehouse for a village grain bank. Through our grants program, we have provided funding for four community initiatives in Mali, including the creation of a grain bank, the beginning of two school gardens, and the restoration of a well; and one community initiative in Ecuador: the creation of a school computer lab. We have also supported 30 rural Ecuadorian students by covering the various costs necessary for them to attend secondary school. This summer we offered free English classes, attended by 80 students, and math classes, attended by 30 students, for our scholarship students and others in their communities.

Everyone who works for this organization is amazing. They did an absolutely fantastic job coordinating volunteer opportunities for our group!

After taking early retirement last year, I signed up for two weeks on a medical service trip to highland Ecuador with the Tandana Foundation last month. This exceptional organization has been active in the northern sierra of Ecuador for much of the last decade, establishing ongoing partnerships with a number of indigenous villages and contributing to efforts identified by the local communities such as healthcare, education, small business development and horticulture. The other volunteer participants had very diverse backgrounds and interests, came from many different states and provinces, of all ages, and all came with a desire to be of service to others and to learn and to share. Rarely in a rather long life have I met such fine people who have become great friends so quickly as we shared such intense and rewarding experiences together. This group cohesion was only possible due to the long experience and constant efforts of the Tandana leadership and staff to provide the necessary support and logistics, while making these trips exciting and fun for the participants. The TF is extremely skilled at finding and developing exceptional staff to fulfill their stated mission, to make the experience safe and enjoyable for all the volunteers, and to foster deeper cultural awareness between the local communities and those who sign up for these trips.
Each morning we took a chartered bus to a village higher in the Andean highlands, where our volunteer group- both lay and medical providers- set up in the local school or community center. The physicians, PA, and dentists provided free medical and dental care to children and adults, some of whom needed to be referred to local facilities or were followed up later by TF staff. Our group also recorded vital signs, performed basic lab tests, did vision screening, provided reading glasses, and our mobile pharmacy provided medications prescribed by the PAs and physicians. We ate very well, had a wonderful place to stay in Otavalo, and the volunteers had opportunities for activities later in the day such as visits to a master weaver, a local shaman, a cooking school, a maker of musical instruments, and outings to see waterfalls and hike around alpine lakes. The first week our group had a great time one night dancing in costume in an annual parade in a local village. The second week we went on a boat tour around a beautiful reed-fringed lake at the foot of Imbabura volcano.
Before signing up for this trip, I had heard glowing reports from several physician and PA colleagues who had been Tandana volunteers in the past. They described the trips in terms such as "an experience that will change your life", "this will remind you why you went into medicine in the first place", "I came back from this trip a better person, with more compassion, than when I left". I found all of these reactions to be accurate and true to my own experience. You will know that your money was very well spent, that you will never forget the people you met and the people you worked with, and that you have seen firsthand some of the best work that we can do for each other in this world.

I am three days back from a health care volunteer trip to Ecuador with the Tandana Foundation. I am still trying to figure out why they are thanking us so much for our services when I feel it was I who was on the receiving end of this remarkable experience, the opportunity to be introduced to the indigenous people of the Ecuadorian Andes and their culture in a very unique and personal way. The Tandana staff were a delightful, exemplary group of young people, smart, organized, caring and fun, who every day went out of their way to make sure that the volunteers were well taken care of and that every day we were treated to additional educational programs, field trips and excellent meals! Our lodgings were beautiful and cozy with wonderful hospitality. I would recommend a trip with the Tandana Foundation to anyone with a sense of adventure wanting to make a difference in the world, community by community.

Tandana Foundation really excels in their attention to the volunteers that participate with them. They went the extra mile to assure our comfort, safety, enjoyment, and knowledge for the 7 day volunteer vacation I was part of based out of Otavalo, Ecuador. Their interns and long term volunteers were some of the most capable and professional I could have ever thought would be available to us for the projects. Tandana's focus on doing what the communities need and want to have happen vs. what outsiders think should happen is the true key making volunteer projects successful long term for all those involved.
I joined Tandana with 14 other like minded volunteers for a week of "Volunteer Garden vacation" in Ecuador. It was truly the most gratifying experience. We planted, worked in the school garden, taught composting to happy, bright eyed school kids. We cooked, ate, and worked with the locals, we were not just tourist clicking photos but participated and that is what made a big difference and the Tandana staff made it happen. The staff took care of our every need, we stayed in modern hotels, fed us well and were the nicest group of smart young people.
I wish Tandana founder Ann Taft, Director Hope Taft and staff all the best and thank-you for giving me a chance to give back.- Shyamala -Hope to participate again.
I went on a service trip through Northeastern University to work with Tandana in Otavolo, Ecuador. Anna and her team were incredibly helpful and considerate with volunteers and community members. The organization does great things by providing whatever service the community needs most and by facilitating genuine connection between volunteers and community members.
I had a life-changing experience on my trip to Ecuador through Tandana. I participated in a course that traveled abroad spring break to teach English in primary schools in Otavalo with my class. My experience was filled with cultural excursions, native interactions, and full immersion in the beautiful country. The Tandana staff was extremely personable and welcoming and I had an amazing time on my spring break alternative trip.

Very Well

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?
A wonderful trip with awesome guides and lovely people. We were given excellent previews of the languages and what to expect in each village. Safe and culturally educational. We were able to travel to views that no average tourist would ever see. We were able to help several villages with needed reforestation efforts. We had good quality time teaching school children in beautiful highland Ecuador.
Our meals and accommodations were super.

Perhaps give the group a few moments when enroute to stop and take in the views. We were tightly scheduled and I find myself wishing I had more moments to breathe and appreciate where I was-- even though I know our purpose was to help and work. We did not get much time at our inn to just decompress for a few minutes.

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?
A few years ago I had an internship with Tandana for 9 months. Prior to that experience and after I have worked with 6 other NGO's in Latin America and the Caribbean but I would have to say Tandana does the best job of achieving its goal-- to create and nurture real and responsible relationships among people of different cultures. I typically like to spend a decent amount of time in any foreign place I visit because I feel you get more out of the experience if you really get to know a place rather than pass through on a quick visit. Somehow this doesn't seem to hold true with Tandana as they are able to provide volunteers with an incredible, authentic experience in no more than a week. I've never seen anything like it.

RSPB Leighton Moss has paid tribute to the famous comic and avid birdwatcher Eric Morecambe with a new silhouette on one of its hides.
Produced by Kendal-based Age UK group Men in Sheds, the eye-catching silhouette greets visitors to the Eric Morecambe hide.
Originally built in 1986, the hide and the Eric Morecambe pool were constructed in memory of the comedian, who died 30 years ago.

- Have I Got News For You star joins Lake District Runners
Thanks to funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund, Lancashire Environmental Fund, and the Rural Development Programme for England, a replacement hide was re-opened in October 2012, with the red ribbon cut by Eric's daughter, Gail Stuart.
Now a couple of years on, the silhouette has been added to this popular hide in honour of the late comedian.
Jenn Lane, visitor intern at RSPB Leighton Moss, said: "The silhouette gives the visitors even more to smile about when they head down to the Eric Morecambe hide."
