One Thing We Can't Control
My Grandma Harriet died a few weeks ago, at the age of 95. She was beautiful, creative and could expertly apply her lipstick without a mirror. She was my favorite hug. She cooked up the yummiest tuna noodle casseroles and the tastiest matzah ball soup. She lived a long life full of family simchas (celebrations), fancy dinners out with my grandfather and travelling around the world. When I got the call that she passed away, I was sad, but grateful that she lived a long, rich life.
A week later, I found out that my colleague's wife was tragically killed in a car accident at the age of 37. N was vibrant, involved in the wider Jewish community and the mother of three kids. She was passionate about education and inclusivity. My heart broke when I read the news of her unexpected passing.
Death confounds me. After these losses, my theology was shaken up, once again. Why was my grandmother blessed with a sweet long life when people like N are tragically taken away from us so suddenly? How is it determined: Who shall live and who shall die?
We are moving into the High Holiday season in the Jewish calendar. The Days of Awe (Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur) are a time of contemplation, reflection and spiritual awakening. The Shofar is sounded to pull us out of our sleepy routines and open our hearts. It is a time to deeply connect with ourselves. And it is a time to face our own mortality. In the "U-netaneh Tokef" prayer, it is sung, "Who shall live on and who shall die."
As a kid, I was taught that on Rosh Hashanah (the Jewish New Year), we are either written in the book of Life or the Book of Death. And on Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement), our fates are sealed. Like many children, I pictured Gd as an old man in the sky, who looked exactly like Moses with a long white beard and a cane. My personified Gd lived above the clouds and wrote two lists each year: those who would live and those who would die. And I worked hard to be my best self so that I wouldn't be added to that dreaded death list.
I have outgrown my childhood theology. It doesn't serve me anymore. This simplistic theology that only the good are rewarded with long life contradicts with my understanding of the world.
I don't know why people die when we do. I don't understand why my grandmother got to live a long healthy life while N was taken from us too soon. I continue to grapple with death. The answers to this are bigger than me and beyond my comprehension.
What I do know is that the Gd of my understanding provides me comfort in the midst of uncertainty. I can lean on The-Abundant-One when I feel scared, lost and sad. When my grandmother passed away, I felt held by a nurturing presence. I experience Gd working through my community as they surround me and my family with love. When I learned of N's death, I cried out to the Mystery. It felt unfair and unjust! My heart cracked open and I felt a deep pain. And yet, I experienced a sense of awe at the outpouring of support and strength from the wider community. The way in which she has been memorialized in countless stories is breathtaking. To me, that is Gd.
Today, I understand the "U-netaneh Tokef" prayer to be about surrender. We are not in control. These words are a reminder of the cycle of life and death. How can I honor the ways in which death is always present? What legacies will live on? What old habits will die? This year, as I sing the line, "Who shall live and who shall die," I will be reminded of my own mortality and how I choose to live my life this year.
Respond with Hope for Peace
In the wake of the horrific attack at the office of Charlie Hebdo in Paris and the subsequent deaths in the kosher deli, there has been much talk on television, in print and online about the xenophobic and anti-Muslim reaction that followed in France and around the world. I have fielded angry and scared questions about how to punish those responsible and how we can maintain our sense of faith when we see so much violence in the world. And unfortunately, this isn't the first time we have been exposed to such violence born of hatred and fear in our lifetime and certainly over the course of human history.
The Jewish community has known more than our fair share of this strain of human nature. Yet each time it happens, one very loud reaction seems to focus on the same call for violence and hatred pointed at the perpetrators. It seems only natural that we direct our rage and hurt and fear in the direction of those responsible. However, this rage we feel can darken and dull our sense of real justice and so many of us end up hating and persecuting those around us who in appearance or only in our minds have some tangential connection to the perpetrators. We too are often bound by fear of the other, that which we do not fully understand and the cycle of mistrust, of misinformation and blind hatred continues.
I understand the worry and even the hopelessness that we all felt when we received the first breaking news email about the attack in Paris and turned on the news to watch the events unfold—another instance of the worst of humanity. I imagine so many of us spent time asking why and then how. I cannot understand the intense anti-Muslim rhetoric, the assumption that all who believe different than we are responsible and should be exiled or worse.
We have come so far in the world, have so much more than our parents and grandparents; the ability to reach across the globe and communicate, the ability to access information at speeds unheard of a mere 10 or 20 years ago, the deep celebration and appreciation of diversity and struggle for complete equality in so many places that seemed impossible in generations past. Nevertheless, we are still plagued with the most basic of human reactions, revenge and hatred of what we do not know.
The work that we do at InterfaithFamily is about celebrating and embracing diversity, about opening our communities and ourselves to the possibility that there is more to gain than fear from "the other." I try to live my life by this message because I want to live in a world where true and lasting peace in the broadest and the narrowest lens exists between family members and between nations. It saddens me when all of the remarkable strides we humans have made are diminished by violence and by the reactions to violence.
So let us remember and honor those who were killed in the choices we make every day, how we treat the strangers we encounter and what we teach our children about those with whom we disagree or just don't understand. A Muslim man, Lassana Bathily was working at the Paris kosher grocery that day and saved several people by hiding them in the store's walk-in freezer. Tell this story and find hope every day in all the individuals who make a difference, who act with bravery in the face of fear and who teach us that although we may at times witness the very worst of humanity, we can also, every day, see the spark of the best.
Our diversity is our strength and our future and I hope we will not allow our anger to weaken our commitment to it. Let us seek peace and pursue it, even in the face of those set to destroy it, even amid our justified fear and concern as we have done time and time again. Let our compassion and hope guide our reactions as we search for the light in humanity to dispel the darkness.
Adaptation and Flexibility for Death and Mourning Customs
My Aunt just died. She had been sick, lived to be 88, and had a wonderful marriage of 62 years. One of the sweetest people I ever knew. Her dear husband is 96 and devastated. He is in excellent health and still drives. He keeps remarking, "who lives to be 96?" He bought a car last year and the salesman offered an extended service plan. He looked at his daughter and laughed. He was lucky she was letting him get a car. My uncle is stunned to be alive and well but now without his beloved wife.
Our family is understandably sad and is in mourning. Typically in Judaism there is a funeral and a mourning process called shiva. What is unique about this case is that her husband (my uncle) doesn't want a funeral or to observe shiva. To provide you with his perspective, he escaped the Holocaust, leaving Vienna for the US. His parents however were killed in a concentration camp. He feels that his parents had no funeral or religion associated with their death and he and my aunt decided long ago that there was no need for any ceremonies for them either.
My side of the family is quite religious and would like to observe shiva, but we completely respect his wishes. I would have gone to a funeral or to see my uncle and cousins but that is not what my uncle wants. My father has decided to sit shiva at his home (in another state). Many of my father's cousins who knew my aunt will come to the house and tell sweet stories about her. This process will likely help my father and his brother grieve the loss of their sister. My father will say kaddish for a month (a prayer at daily services) and this too will help him grieve.
What I find so beautiful is that Jewish culture supports both wishes and both needs. Everyone grieves in their own way, and I love that Jewish culture provides us with what we need, when we need it. Grief is personal but can be lonely. Judaism provides the constructs for people to move forward at their own pace.
The Power of Prayer – Helping Children through Anxiety and Stress
I couldn't stop thinking about Connecticut, the 26 people killed, 20 of whom were children. My children are in elementary school. I was scared to tell them because I was afraid they'd never want to go to school, but with media everywhere and emotions so raw, they found out about the tragedy. I struggle with what to tell them. I struggle with letting them leave the house. I want them to go out into the world without fear. I worry that they won't want to go to school and that they won't want to go to sleep.
Several years ago, my second son, Sam, was scared and having trouble sleeping. When Sam used to fear monsters, I could calm his fear with helping him control his imagination. But this time the fear was real. My older son, Rob, had nearly been hit by a car while his brother was two steps away. Rob walked into the street as a car came around the corner and he walked into the side of a moving car and bounced back onto the sidewalk. Fortunately, Rob was fine physically, but emotionally, we were all affected. Sam saw it happen and became anxious all the time. The school noticed the problem too. I spoke with the school psychologist and she suggested prayer. My inner agnostic didn't take her seriously at first, but I quickly realized that this idea had some merit. My kids already knew the Jewish bedtime prayer, the Shema. Religious Jews say it several times a day but at night, it seems to have special meaning. The translation is "Hear o Israel, The Lord our G-d, the Lord is one." I explained to my kids that we should say this prayer together every night. It is our way of letting go of the fear and stress we have and having some faith that G-d will take care of us. As a parent, I noticed that the kids immediately relaxed and were able to get some sleep.
After the incident in Connecticut, I began to think more about prayer. I thought about the concept of saying a prayer before we eat — Hamotzi. We eat all the time, why should we take a second to say thanks? Today I realized that the act of prayer makes us realize that we can't take the simple things for granted – like our kids will be safe when they are at school. We should say thank you for what we have. The agnostic voice in my head says that if there is a supreme being, he doesn't have time to listen to my prayer for the food that we eat. I now realize that prayer isn't just for G-d. Prayer is for us; to save our sanity in an insane world, to give us a moment of calm and appreciation of the good things. I feel that if we have the balance of appreciation, we can ride out the tougher things like a bad day or a human tragedy with a little more strength. Prayer gives us calm, focus, and a little bit of inner peace. Oprah Winfrey used to recommend keeping a journal of appreciation — write down the good things in your life every day and it will help you avoid depression. I now realize that religion is way ahead on this concept — appreciate what you have and it will save your soul today, tomorrow and in the future. It can get you through a bad day and help you sleep at night.
In a few months, InterfaithFamily/Philadelphia will be offering a class called "Raising a Child With Judaism in Your Interfaith Family." These online classes (with two in-person sessions) teach about various Jewish rituals such as the Shema and Hamotzi. As a parent, I realize how meaningful these small prayers are toward helping us all function and appreciate the life we have. As we share more details about the class, including how to register, in the coming weeks, I hope you will spread the word about this class and encourage even the most cynical to look into it. When we watch tragedy take place in the world, I find prayer to be one of the more powerful weapons in our parental arsenal. In the meantime, I say a prayer for the families in Connecticut. I am so sorry for your loss.

Esta forma de trabajo le permite generar recursos para apoyar a su familia, ya que ella es casada y tiene cuatro hijos.
Cuando se le consulta qué le gusta de Pro Mujer, ella responde que le gusta la capacitación que ofrece la institución.
Additional Information
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.
Loan tags help lenders find loans that match certain areas of interest. You can add up to 5 tags for this loan.

Plasma physics: at the heart of fusion
Research on fusion energy in Europe has focused on understanding and controlling the behaviour of high-temperature plasmas. Plasma is the 4th state of matter and is a gas of electrically-charged particles: electrons and ions. The gas is so hot its atoms have been completely ionised (the negatively charged electrons have separated from the positively charged atomic nuclei - or ions).
Europe has been at the forefront of experimental research on plasma physics through major programmes such as the Joint European Torus (JET) and other significant international and European experiments.
The success of these experiments has given the confidence to proceed with ITER, the next step in fusion energy research. But for ITER to fully succeed and lay the path to fusion power, further international investment in plasma physics research will be needed.
Magnetic confinement - controlling plasma
coil structure in W7X © IPP
Very high temperatures are needed to force fusion reactions between atomic nuclei. The nuclei need sufficient energy to overcome their mutually repulsive electrical charges. At very high temperatures the gas used as fusion fuel is completely ionised. The resulting high-energy mixture of positively charged ions and negatively charged electrons is the 4th state of matter called a plasma. It is essential that the hot plasma does not touch the walls of the reaction chamber as this will lead to rapid cooling of the fuel and possible damage to equipment.
Because plasma is a gas of charged particles it can be controlled by powerful magnetic fields. The particles in the plasma can move easily along magnetic field lines but are restricted in moving across them. This allows plasma to be held, controlled and even heated by a complex cage of magnetic fields. This is called magnetic confinement.
coils in a tokamak © EFDA
The magnetic fields are generated by superconducting magnetic field coils located around the plasma reactor chamber and by electrical currents flowing in the plasma itself.
Magnetic confinement fusion is the main approach for European fusion research. The fusion reactions take place in a reaction vessel that isolates the plasma from its surroundings and is shaped like a torus or doughnut shape - essentially a continuous tube.
Several toroidal configurations for magnetic confinement have been studied, and the most advanced of these is the tokamak. ITER, for example, is a large tokamak.
Alternative toroidal devices also being studied include the stellarator, the reversed field pinch and spherical tokamak configurations.
Advanced and improved concepts for magnetic confinement schemes that could provide potential advantage for future fusion power stations are part of longer-term R&D. This includes the construction of the advanced W7-X stellarator device in Germany.
Plasma research challenges
To actively and accurately control plasma in a fusion reactor, scientists need to understand fully:
- the properties of the plasma,
- how plasma conducts heat,
- how particles are lost from the plasma,
- plasma stability,
- how unwanted particles (impurities) can be removed from the plasma,
- how to best control the plasma and plasma instabilities.
The European research programme conducts extensive experimental, theoretical and modelling studies on plasma physics with the aim of providing a strong, comprehensive and predictive understanding of its complexities.
Achieving controlled fusion requires three conditions in the plasma:
- a high temperature (> 100 million °C),
- a particle density of at least 1022 particles per cubic metre,
- an energy confinement time of around 1 second.
The energy confinement time is a measure of the time for the energy contained in the plasma to dissipate.
Clearly one of the major challenges in fusion research is to maintain plasma temperature. The plasma is constantly being cooled by impurities picked up from the reactor wall. Scientists need to understand the processes that erode the plasma vessel wall and the mechanisms that transport the eroded impurities into the plasma. The impurities must be efficiently extracted without disrupting the plasma. In addition, the extra heating power injected into the plasma must also be extracted in a controlled manner.
Understanding and controlling instabilities in the plasma is another major challenge being tackled by both experiment and the use of powerful computer models of plasma behaviour.
An alternative approach to fusion involves inertial confinement. This technique uses ultra-fast high-power lasers or particle beams to heat and compress tiny pellets of fusion fuel. The European fusion programme maintains a watching brief on developments in this area and supports some experimental work.

Tokyo Gov. Shintaro Ishihara apologized Tuesday for his remark that the devastating earthquake and subsequent tsunami last week represented "divine punishment" of the Japanese people who have been tainted with egoism.
"I will take back (the remark) and offer a deep apology," Ishihara said, adding that he should have thought about the feelings of the victims.
Miyagi Gov. Yoshihiro Murai showed displeasure with Ishihara, telling reporters he hopes the Tokyo governor will consider the people affected by the disaster.
"Japanese politics is tainted with egoism and populism. We need to use tsunami to wipe out egoism, which has rusted onto the mentality of Japanese over a long period of time," Ishihara, who is seeking re-election for a fourth term on April 10, told reporters Monday. "I think (the disaster) is 'tembatsu' (divine punishment), although I feel sorry for disaster victims."

The judge saw that he
a.Had possession of a weapon
b.Gave a false address to the police
c.Was left unsupervised at night
This lead the family court judge to come to the conclusion that "there is a substantial probability that he [Martin] will not appear in court on the return date or there is a serous risk that he may before the return date commit an act which if committed by an adult would constitute a crime". Martin was later found to be delinquent and was sentenced to two years probation.
However, during the time Martin was in pretrial detention, his attorneys filed a class action on behalf of all youths subject to preventative detention in New York, charging that this form of detention was violating their due-process rights under the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments. His appeal was upheld because, at adjudication, most delinquents are released or placed on probation, not many of then were detained. So the appellate judge thought it was unfair to incarcerate them before trial. The prosecution brought the case to the U.S. Supreme Court for final judgment.
The U.S. Supreme Court stated that the purpose of the pretrial detention was not for punishment. Since the prediction of future behavior was why the idea of a pretrial detention was brought up in the first place. Perhaps, the main goal was protection of both the juvenile and society from pretrial crime. Also some other safeguard prevail, such as, notice and a hearing, and a statement of facts that must be given to juveniles before they are placed in detention. In conclusion, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the state's right to place juveniles in...

Which taxi drivers are more considerate of bicycles, New York taxis or Boston taxis?
Which taxi drivers are more considerate of bicycles, New York taxis or Boston taxis?
I ride in both cities. And cab drivers in both cities can be a major challenge. When I was a bike messenger in Boston in the 80's (just as bike messengers were gaining in popularity) bikes were seen as competition for package delivery money so there was a particular kind of hostility.
In general I would say NYC cabbies drive faster and are more aggressive. In Boston they sort of slowly crawl up your a** or drift across (with no signals) to drop off or pick up a passenger.
I have, on occasion, had cabbies in both cities be kind to me while on my bike. I was so thrown by this I was barely able to respond.
I dunno about those cities, but I've gotten close to calling the taxi company in State College and telling them to have their drivers slow down and treat the safety of cyclists with a little respect.

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Oregon prison officials say they'll need to open three more prisons to hold 2,000 new inmates expected in the next decade.
The Oregonian reports (http://bit.ly/qm8SQP) that the cost of opening two prisons now sitting empty and building a third would be at least $608 million by 2021.
Department of Corrections Director Max Williams told a new state commission last week that he would need $157 million to build a prison in Junction City, $20 million to equip prisons in Madras and Salem, and then up to $70 million a year in extra operating costs.
But critics, including the Oregon District Attorneys Association, say the state is overestimating the number of inmates that will join the prison population.

By now we all know that interest rates will stay low, that all sources say economy is slowing down, oil and stock prices have been down for the last few days, and some say correction is only halfway through. Do we really believe that NLY stock price is immune from this downturn? For those who have held NLY for years, through market ups and downs, would you care to shed some light? txs.
Recent history shows that if they maintain earnings and thus the dividend, they will out perform the market on the way down. That is not to say the stock price is immune to some downward pressure.On a daily basis it is not unusual for NLY to counter perform the market. My theory is that when sentiment on stock values turns pessimistic, then that dividend starts looking better. Might as well get some divis while tour portfolio declines.
Agree 150% with previous post.Very well said.

A white Isuzu Rodeo, driven by Lenny Marsidi, 67, of Adelanto, was stopped at the stop sign on Seneca Road and pulled out onto Amethyst Road, causing the collision, according to California Highway Patrol spokesman Matt Hunt.

I think oil spots was a problem of D600 not D610. I have one and, after two years of intense use, did not had any spots on its sensor. And D610 is a very good camera, with an incredible sensor, with very good results in low light and gives me really beautiful colors until ISO 6400!
Shooting Experience
By Eugene Lee
These days, for me, photography is about documenting the life of my young family and the places we go. I mostly shoot as I'm going about my normal life — taking pictures as I walk to work or between helping my children get dressed or waiting for them to finish an activity.
So in recent months, the D610 has been my tool of choice to capture those images. The D610 is nearly the same as the D600. The only differences are a new shutter mechanism that bumps up continuous shooting rate and adds a Quiet Continuous mode, plus it has an updated auto white balance system. It's still a camera that gets out of the way and lets you focus on your subject whether it's landscapes, portraiture, photojournalism or something in between.
All the photographic essentials can be checked off the list for the D610: Good low-light image quality, fast enough frame rate for most situations, tough weather-sealed body, accessibility to good glass, and well laid out controls for quick operation.
The following images are straight out of the camera JPEGs shot in RAW+JPEG mode.
One Saturday afternoon, I took my sons to the Seattle Central Library. Along with a few snacks, I tossed the D610 and the 24-85mm F3.5-4.5 kit lens into my backpack and off we went. While waiting for the elevator, I looked over railing and quickly grabbed the above frame before having to corral my kids through the doors that just opened for our ride down. The D610's matrix metering in did a fine job here.
As one familiar with Nikon and Canon DSLRs, shooting with the D610 felt like riding a bike — you never really forget once you learn. The controls and ergonomics were all familiar and quick to access since the D610 borrows a similar layout as the D7100. And there are enough customization and menu options to set the camera up just the way you like it. For me, I tend to set ISO higher than most to maintain a fast shutter speed since I'm usually shooting while walking (or sometimes running) after my kids or one of them is hanging on me — it's rare I'm left alone so I want to reduce any opportunity for camera shake.
So once the elevator doors opened, I adjusted settings and fired off a few frames without stopping my stride while in pursuit of my kids in the red room area of the library. No learning curve needed.
The new shutter mechanism in the D610 bumps up the continuous frame rate from 5.5 fps to 6 fps. This isn't a huge increase and many dedicated sports photographers aren't going to use the D610 as their primary body, but in this situation it — along with the continuous tracking of the 39-point AF system — was plenty fast enough to get my son in mid-stride.
Dust and oil
I think it's safe to say we consider the oil and dust issue fixed. During my time shooting with the D610 I didn't see the build up of oil or dust that many D600 users found (we covered it in our D600 review). The only dust I encountered was accumulated from fairly typical use. This included frequent lens changes and use by various members of our staff in a variety of conditions. A few blows from a Rocket Blaster took care of any particles. We've shot more than 15,000 frames with our D610 so far.
In addition to the minor increase in the continuous frame rate, the new shutter design also brings a new Quiet Continuous mode to the D610 that fires at 3 fps, in addition to single shot. The shutter sound isn't nearly silent like the Fujifilm X100s or Leica rangefinders, it's just not as recognizable as the traditional shutter clack heard in the normal setting. Compared to the D610's Canon counterpart, the EOS 6D's 'silent shutter' mode is still noticeably more muted and unobtrusive.
Both Quiet modes can be useful for sound sensitive situations such as weddings or certain street settings (and in the above example, not waking up my sleeping son). In practice, many will probably opt to shoot in single shot mode, tripping the shutter and delaying the return clack of the mirror at discerning moments because any sort of rapid fire or sustained noise — even if it is quiet — will draw attention.
Nikon says the auto white balance is improved in the D610 — especially under artificial lighting conditions. Other Nikon DSLRs I've used often struggle to find the right white balance in the auto setting (tending towards being too orange). In this image, lit only by the incandescent bulb in the lamp, the D610 gets it right for my taste.
It's also worth mentioning in this low-light scene of my son playing with the phone, the D610's second most outer left AF point locked on for most of the 22 frames I shot. Only two frames produced visibly soft images.
One area the D610 disappoints is live view shooting. The lens is automatically set to the aperture selected at the time live view is turned on, giving you an accurate preview of depth of field. However, you can not preview any further shooting adjustments even though the shutter speed and aperture figures change. The exposure indicator scale is your only guide to how changes affect the final image. So the only way to get an accurate depth of field preview is to exit and re-enter live view. Also, since the D610 uses contrast detection AF in live view (instead of phase detection AF), it's really only useful where critical focus is more important than speed.
In the above example, in live view mode, I used the zoom buttons on the rear of the camera to magnify the flower's center and adjust focus manually — something live view is very useful for. It would be nice if the D610 had features such as a histogram view (in the D800) and the option to show real-time depth of field preview on the LCD (in the Canon EOS 6D). For a more in-depth look see our original D600 review since D610 live view functionality is identical.
Being exactly the same as the D600 on the outside, there were no surprises in handling the D610. It's operation is tried and true. The 24.3MP full-frame sensor produces files full of detail, in any condition you can throw at it. The twin-dial controls are in comfortable positions and the shutter button action is solid. With the 24-85mm F3.5-4.5 lens attached, the D610 feels well balanced in hand and the magnesium alloy top and rear plates instill confidence that it can handle a few knocks. And while it's not small like mirrorless systems or the Canon SL1, the D610 is smaller and lighter than the D800, and can feel compact with the right prime lens.
One advantage of the full-frame sensor is the variety of wide-angle lens options that are available — especially primes. One of my favorites is the Nikkor 20mm F2.8. Since it's so short, when mounted on the D610 it makes a really light DSLR setup that can be easily carried anywhere.
In using the D610 I didn't feel limited by the shortcomings of technology or body design. I only felt limited by my own vision and skill — which is a good thing. With the D610 I was able to focus on creativity versus what my gear can and can't do.

"Eyrarbakki." Eyrarbakki by Bjorgvin
Eyrarbakki Travel Guide: 6 reviews and 11 photos
The south coast village of Eyrarbakki is of historic significance because it was for centuries the main port in the region, and a trading center for the whole of the southern region. But the place lost its importance as a trading center in the early 20th century, partly because the natural harbor conditions were not good and partly because modern road communications were not good enough at the time. For centuries trade and fishing were the main occupations in Eyrarbakki and the fishing industry still is one of the sources of employment, but so is small industry and, increasingly, tourism. Eyrarbakki was in the 19th century a cultural center as well. The primary school there, established in 1852, is the oldest in the country.

WASHINGTON — They are the unlikeliest of friends but they are certainly not new friends.
Baloo the bear, Leo the lion and Shere Khan the tiger have been best pals for 13 years. They even live in the same enclosure at a Georgia exotic animal rescue, where they were placed after being taken from a drug dealer's apartment over a decade ago.
"They actually seek out each other's affections," Allison Hedgecoth, Noah's Ark animal husbandry manager, told the Today show recently. "They nuzzle each other. They play together."
The story goes that the three had been locked away in the tiny apartment, were starving, "terrified" and neglected when they were found. It was there, however, that they formed their unusual bond. They are said to have healed together when they were brought to the Georgia facility. More here:

The usual suspects star -- iPod, iPhone, Macbook, Macbook Air (iPads are cool too, guys!), the word "Maccin'" -- but we're partial to Jay Z's "Prelude" for it's double pop reference to Jobs and Head and Shoulders.

The Dot and the Line: A Romance in Lower Mathematics (1963)
by Norton Juster
No current Talk conversations about this book.
A classic love triangle occurs between a line, a dot, and a squiggle expressed through geometry. The line loves the dot, the dot the squiggle, and the squiggle is just a squiggle. The line tries to impress the dot by bending, curving, and forming angles. Eventually, the line wins the love of the dot by being the best line it can be. This silly book has so much more to offer than just arithmetic. It is about gaining confidence in being who you are. The illustrations are bright and vibrant which provide various mathematical expressions. This charming book is not only a math builder but a self-esteem builder as well.
This is a good example of a fantasy book because it shows the relationship between a line who is in love with a dot and the different things he has to do to prove himself worthy over a squiggle.
I would use this book when discussing where we use lines and why they are important as well as dots.
I would also use this book to talk about relationships with friends and how friendships should have a deeper meaning than just you like the games they play but that you like all your friends for who they are.
Media: Mixed
GENRE: Fantasy
The line admires the dot, because the dots originality. Later, the line discovers angles and realizes that it can become anything it wants to be: parallelogram, squares, triangles and more.
A love triangle between a line, a dot and a squiggle ultimately resolves in the line winning his lady, the dot.
Amusing. Quite brilliant use of imagery and puns. The story of the line appealed to me the most as he persevered in making himself more than what was expected of him. The romance, on the other hand, which focused on the fickleness of the "she" was rather outdated and tedious. I'm not sure how a child would respond to this though as it seems it would be more fun for the adult.

Listener Q&A Feedback for Episode 76
We're taking your questions and comments for discussion on the future Episode 76. Please let us know here or to podcast at gamecritics dot com.
Re: Listener Q&A Feedback for Episode 76
Hallo Chi! Ok, just off the top of my head, feel free to use one of these:
# 1 You're cast away on a desert island. You're allowed to take one game with you. What would it be? Despite this island miraculously having a console or PC and a power supply, you have no internet connection.
#2 Peter Skerrit's last article painted a bleak picture of the gaming industry, and cast more doubt on the sustainability of the Triple A games market. If there was a Triple A collapse, would you care? Would you be happy surviving on a diet of indies and mid-range games? Is there such a thing as a 'good' mid-range game anymore?
That question is a bit nonsensical, perhaps.
#3 Nintendo Power Magazine sends an invite to a huge 25th Anniversary junket they are throwing, all expenses paid etc. Which Gamecritic do you send?
#4 The people who read Gamecritics.com can be a bit...lethargic...in posting comments etc. For example Darren Forman's Legend of Grimrock review was brilliant and funny and didn't get one comment. Do you ever get frustrated at the lack of feedback? What drives you on with this project?
#5 I love the writing on this site, it's of such a high standard that I read most of the articles, no matter how obscure the game. However, lots of times, the games being reviewed are really terrible - eg Kristen's Deadliest Warrior and Dan's Pearl Harbour reviews on the same page. I'm not criticising, just wondering if there's an editorial policy or review list, or if you just review what you want.
Re: Listener Q&A Feedback for Episode 76
what is your zompacalypse plan? Where will you go when the crap hits the fan? Tell us what 3 weapons you would have, you cannot pick the internet.
I would go to a tall building, at least 5 stories, and knock out the stairs to all but one staircase above the third floor, creating a more permanent shelter with an entrance that can be easily watched.
I would likely go to a place with a very cold winter, zombies would probably freeze solid and not be an issue during the coldest months of the year.
Finally i would take as my weapons a machete, because they can never run out of bullets, an ak-47, because they can be filled with mud and still fire without jamming, and a maglight, because you dont realize how dark it can get until all the lights IN THE WORLD are shut off, and because if all else fails, it can be used efficiently as a club.

Qaddoumi: Current Situation Delaying Syrian-Palestinian Summit
The head of the PLO's political department, Farouq Qaddoumi, has said that the regional situation has caused the delay in the summit between Syrian President Bashar Al Assad and Palestinian President Yasser Arafat.
In an interview with the Kuwaiti Arabic daily, Al Rai Al Aam, cited by Qatari News Agency (GNA), the official said that the summit might be held anytime, and that the progress in Palestinian-Syrian relations made it unnecessary to exert much effort on preparations for the meeting.
Qaddoumi requested that Arab and Islamic countries support Palestinian Intifada.
"Arabs and Muslims should give support in the form of weapons, financial assistance and by opening the door for volunteers to defend the Palestinian nation," he said.
He pointed out that the situation in Palestine was very critical and that "it is in a state of war." – Albawaba.com

Valley Oak League play tipped off this week for Oakdale's boys basketball teams, with all levels in action. The Mustang boys took their act on the road for a contest on Wednesday night, Jan. 7 and also were on the road Friday.
The 45th annual Oakdale Rotary Classic came to a close on Monday night, Dec. 29. The three-day basketball tournament featured eight local schools, including the host school Mustangs. Oakdale's varsity boys finished the tournament with a record of 1-2. The Mustangs fell to Hughson in the first round Friday night, bounced back to defeat Los Banos on Saturday, and then fell to Grace Davis in the consolation game on Monday night, 71-63.
The 2014-15 basketball preseason came to a close Saturday night, Jan. 3 when the varsity Lady Mustangs hosted the Lady Tigers of Terra Nova, a game that resulted in a thrilling Terra Nova overtime victory, 52-45.
Oakdale High School may still be on winter break from academic classes, but its varsity and junior varsity boys basketball teams hit the hardwood in the annual Oakdale Rotary Classic tournament over the holiday break.
On a cold, damp night outside, the varsity boys were making it rain three's inside the Oakdale High School gym on the basketball court. The varsity Mustangs knocked down four treys to help lift them to a 57-52 victory over visiting Atwater on Tuesday, Dec. 16.
It was a rough night for the Lady Mustangs overall as teams at all three levels – freshmen, junior varsity and varsity teams lost to longtime rivals, the Sonora Wildcats on Dec. 19. Even though Sonora is no longer in the Valley Oak League, there was that midseason atmosphere when the teams clashed in a non-league preseason girls' varsity basketball game in Oakdale. The youngest Lady Mustangs fell 57-19 and the JV team tumbled, 60-23 against the visitors.
Although the calendar will show that we are only at the midway point of the 2014-2015 school year, OHS senior Jennifer Guzman is off to a memorable start.
Keeping the game close early, Oakdale's varsity football Mustangs finally ran out of steam and couldn't hold off an undefeated Clayton Valley Charter School squad, falling 28-7 in the CIF NorCal Regional Division II championship game on Saturday.
Bend, but don't break.
Though still missing plenty of team members – continuing with their football season – the Oakdale High School wrestling team packed its gym bags and headed down south to Bakersfield for the weekend's annual Rumble for the Rig tournament. OHS claimed second place out of 20 top wrestling schools from throughout the state. Oakdale had many standouts including four first place finishers, a pair of second place finishers and three others finishing in the top five.
In advance of the upcoming wrestling season, The Leader sent a questionnaire to head coach Steve Strange, seeking some thoughts on the campaign. Following are the questions and coach Strange's answers.
Oakdale punched its ticket for the 2014 Division III CIF Sac-Joaquin Section Championship game after dismantling 10th seeded Rio Linda 41-14 Friday night, Nov. 28.
The Oakdale Mustangs welcomed Vista Del Lago this past Friday night to The Corral with the winner advancing to the semifinals of the 2014 Sac Joaquin Section Championship in Division III. Oakdale pulled away in the fourth quarter of the Nov. 21 contest to win 42-14 and keep their season alive.
Taking down the top seed on Saturday, the Oakdale varsity Mustangs brought home the coveted blue banner, winning the Sac-Joaquin Section Division III soccer title over Christian Brothers.
Playoff action has concluded for a couple of Oakdale squads, as the volleyball girls and cross country teams wrapped up their seasons recently. Following is a look at their final performances.

Re: New or used?
It really depends on how much you trust the seller and their description. I brought mine second hand. The seller advised he had had the IS replaced under warrenty within 1 year of its purchase. I can't remember how old it is but it works just fine and as it should. I also brought my 300mm L IS f/4 second hand and that's ancient but it works just fine. If you can't view the lens ask lots of questions around dust, scratches, fungus, how used i.e. surfing photography query sand and salt water. Check how other people have found the seller.
Happy buying.
