"Beautiful Island" Top 5 Page for this destination Taiwan by chewy3326
Taiwan Travel Guide: 3,802 reviews and 10,763 photos
In the 16th century, the first Dutch ships sailed by the island of Taiwan; after seeing the island, they decided to name it Ilha Formosa, the Beautiful Island.
Despite being rather tiny, Taiwan is a very interesting, diverse, beautiful, polluted, smoggy, friendly, offensive, jammed, humid, hot, and wonderful place. It claims to be the second most densely populated nation on earth (not including microstates), but can also boast of vast, untouched stretches of alpine mountain scenery. Taiwan has a mostly subtropical climate, but also has tropical rain forest in its far south, and alpine tundra in its lofty mountains. The island also has what once the tallest building in the world, Taipei 101 in Taipei. It has immense stretches of overpopulated cities, but also hundreds of square kilometers of unbroken, rarely trodden wilderness. Its people may seem offensive and unfriendly at first, but get to know them well and they will become all the more friendlier.
Though it is not yet up to par with cities like Hong Kong, Shanghai, and Tokyo, the city of Taipei is quickly becoming one of Asia's most vibrant cities. Nonetheless, Taiwan still doesn't have the tourist hordes that plague mainland China and Japan. Visit Taiwan now, before the secret's out: Ilha Formosa lives up to its name.
Taiwan (officially the Republic of China) has a population of around 23 million people, all crowded on a rather small island. It only takes six hours to travel from Taipei to Kenting (the northern and southern tips of the island), but there is a lot of diversity crowded into that small space. Almost 75% of all the land on the island is mountainous; the remaining 25%, most of which is in the western coastal plain, is heavily developed.
Running the length of the island are four major mountain chains, from north to south: Xueshan (Syueshan) (Snow Mountain) Range, Zhongyang (Central) Mountain Range, Yushan (Jade Mountain) Range, and Alishan (Ali Mountain) Range. While Taipei may seem hot, humid, and subtropical, a short drive can put you in the heart of the Zhongyang Mountain Range, where the scenery is alpine and magnificent, the temperatures are 20 degrees C lower, and there are dozens of kilometers of trails above the timberline waiting for you to explore.
During my multiple visits to Taiwan, I've gradually seen more and more parts of the island. All time favorites have to be my trips to the wild and stunning Taroko Gorge, the rugged mountains around Dabajianshan, the temples at Lukang, and the treasures of the National Palace Museum. But there's still so much more for me to see! I have yet to climb Yushan, the island's tallest peak (and the highest in Northeast Asia). And I have yet to journey to either Penghu or Taitung.
This is my list of my ten favorite places in Taiwan, in no particular order:
1. Dabajianshan, Shei-Pa National Park, Hsinchu
2. Taroko Gorge
3. Taipei 101
4. Hehuanshan
5. National Palace Museum
6. Sun Moon Lake
7. Xitou Forest Recreation Park
8. Kenting National Park
9. Lugang
10. Changhua
I love Taiwan for the bustle of its cities, the calm of its remote mountains, and the meditative feel of its temples.
- Pros:Vibrant cities, beautiful alpine scenery, food
- Cons:Smog, pollution, traffic, unfriendly people, overcrowding
- In a nutshell:A good place to spend a month

SPOILERS for "The Good Wife's" "Dramatics, Your Honor" lie ahead. Turn back now.
Mixed in with the shock and grief over last night's unforeshadowed death of a major character on "The Good Wife" was a degree of incredulous admiration: How did they keep that a secret? According to Deadline, "the entire main 'Good Wife' cast" knew Josh Charles was leaving the show, and yet apart from a few whispers, word never got around.
Even the advance warning that "Dramatics, Your Honor" was "a big one" seemed to point in other directions: Would we learn that Peter Florrick really had stolen the governor's election? Was Kalinda, who's been reduced to iterations of a small handful of character tics, on her way out the door? Would Robyn finally eat pizza like a normal person?
What made the shooting death of Will Gardner such a shock is that "The Good Wife" is not that kind of a show. When "The Walking Dead" kills someone off, it's business as usual. "Scandal" kept us in suspense for a week by leaving us wondering who was on the receiving end of Jake Ballard's bullet, but at this point, the show's minor characters are all just waiting for their number to come up. Charles' former "Sports Night" colleague Joshua Malina neatly tweaked the differences between the two shows with a perfectly honed tweet:
Whew. I'm so relieved to have survived tonight's episode of #TheGoodWife.
— Joshua Malina (@JoshMalina) March 24, 2014
In an unusual, perhaps unprecedented, letter to fans that went up immediately after the episode's west coast airing, creators Robert and Michelle King said they handled Charles departure as they did because they wanted to address "the irredeemability of death," and to provide a definitive answer to the "will they or won't they" question of Will and Alicia's relationship that would otherwise have hovered over the rest of the show. (The Kings' statement that they didn't want to send Will "off to Seattle" is a reference to George Clooney's exit from "ER," which left the door open for a fan-servicey reunion with Julianna Marguilies' character.) As much as her relationship with her former lover and current rival had been poisoned, Will would have lingered as an escape hatch for Alicia, and for the show's viewers, who would have been left wondering if there might be footage of Margulies and Charles chilling in a refrigerator somewhere, just waiting for the right moment.
Will's death caused a stir among fans, and among critics, who collectively worked their way through the fives stages of grief.
Noel Kirkpatrick, TV.com
I mean, I have a critical response to Will's death -- boy, it sure is a handy and lazy way to resolve whether or not Will would've testified against Peter in Dubeck's little crusade! -- but, dammit, I don't care right now. I'll care soon, I'm sure, but right now I just... need to not do my normal analysis. We can do it in the comments, but I'm not going to do it it here, not yet.
Linda Holmes, NPR
Faced with Charles' decision to leave, and apparently with this entire season to prepare, producers Robert and Michelle King decided to create a legitimately interesting story between Will and Alicia for maybe the first time ever, and then to end it with an abrupt grisly death. Ha! They got you. They shocked you! Don't you feel terrible? Let's all feel terrible. They really got us. I feel terrible. Success!
James Poniewozik, Time
The idea of killing anyone in sudden violence doesn't really seem like The Good Wife's world; I'd expected that Will was eventually either going to make a career move (to another city maybe) or be disbarred. Then again, if you want a departure to truly shake your audience and characters, maybe it needs to be something that feels like an asteroid striking.
Arit John, The Wire
Even though it feels like there's no point, here are last night's losers.
Loser: Jeffrey Grant
Winner: No one, because Will is dead.
Loser: Lockhart Gardner Canning?
Winner: No one, because Will is dead.
Loser: Nelson Dubek
Winner: No one, because Will is dead.
Loser: Peter Florrick
Winner: No one, because Will is dead.
Loser: Alicia Florrick
Winner: No one, because Will is dead.
Mark Harris, Grantland
Alicia's search for her identity — how much she's willing to define herself apart from the men in her life, how she seems to become more like Peter (and in some ways like Will) the less she depends on them, how she chooses to be "good," and how slippery she lets her definition of that word become — is the engine that has long powered this excellent, chance-taking series. Now we'll get to see how she deals with the loss of a friend, a lover, and a rival, as well as with overwhelming grief and knowledge of what Will thought he knew about her husband.
I'm hovering between depression and acceptance myself: I mourn the loss of the Will-Alicia dynamic, and yet I think the Kings were right that if Charles was leaving the show, they had to answer "Will they or won't they?" with a definitive "They won't." Was there another way to do it? Short of bringing in another character for Will to fall madly in love with, it's hard to think of another way. And yet the sudden burst of gunfire feels like it's been done before, mostly because it has. But whatever you think of the way Will died, the buildup to it was near perfection, and there's plenty of reason to believe its aftermath will be as well. Shocker though it was, Will's death was among the less inspired moment of the current season -- which, counter to where most shows are five years in, has proven to be "The Good Wife's" best. But it's also brought a ton of attention to a great show that gets far too little of it. If it brings even a small handful of new viewers into the fold, Will Gardner's death will not have been in vain.

In an average year, the SNSM saves thousands of lives and assists thousands of boats in distress. Given St. Barth's particular location along the path of frequently powerful and sometimes unpredictable storms and hurricanes, the SNSM plays a vital role in security of the people of this island.
Under the leadership of the president of the organization's St. Barth chapter, Ingénu Magras, the SNSM maintains a constant state of readiness through regular drills and activities. A highly trained crew mans the Capitaine Danet, SNS 269, the pride of the St. Barth SNSM. The 10-meter, unsinkable Motor Life Boat is designed to be self-righting in the event of capsizing in heavy seas.

Re: free on line photosharing and watwermarks
The only sites that I'm aware that will watermark your photos are some stock agencies, you should water mark your photos yourself before uploading tem to hosting sites if your worried about somebody stealing your photos, there are many watermarking programs which are good, some which are free, but be forewarned, if somebody is really wanting to use your photos, the watermark can be removed, that is why some stock agencies only will show low resolution photos that can not be resized into a usable size.

How do I reset a DS game?
I want to reset all my DS games so that I can sell them along with my DS Lite.

Please list your games and we can offer exact instructions.

Top Voted Answer
i think in some games resetting a game is A+B+Y+X+L+R, and most games that is just soft resetting, and some games also has a feature in the options, where you are able to erase the data, and depending on your games try going into options, and go to erase data, or something like that, and some games before you can start a new game, you must delete the existing data, i don't know a lot games that do that, but i know The World Ends With You does, and as soon as the data has been erased, just turn off the console, one more thing GASP your selling your DS + Games.

News Aggregation- More Proof Facebook Wants Me to Stop Using itAlli Worthington
I've always considered you a necessary evil. Like the flu in a kindergarten classroom, you have spread yourself all over the Internet. I wanted to like you, but you didn't make it easy. You played fast and loose with personal information. You reminded me why I stopped talking to old friends. When I log in to my profile I was poked and given imaginary cows. I tried, I really did. I'm just not that into you.
Apparently you aren't that into me, either. Today I noticed a new feature. Now I have news aggregated by topic in my stream? SIGH.
I have two words for you- KEYWORD SPAM.
Good thing I'm all about Google+ this week. Sorry Facebook, I'm just not that into you.

"Jericho" Top 5 Page for this destination Jericho by Childish
Jericho Travel Guide: 43 reviews and 165 photos
Jericho is the oldest town in the world with a town wall, and the oldest settlement that has been continuously inhabited for more than 10 000 years.
Jericho is the first town conquered by Joshua son of Nun, successor of Moses. In Joshua 1, Old Statement, we read that God will lead Israeli people to their new land. And in Joshua 2, Joshua son of Nun, sends two spies to Jericho. Then the Israeli people cross river Jordan. The most interesting part is described in Joshua 6, where God told to Israeli people to march for 6 days around the walls of the town, and then 7 times on the 7th day with priests blowing the trumpets and all people shouting loud and as a result the town walls of Jericho would be knocked down. The town was destroyed. And the people who undertakes to rebuild the town was cursed.
See my tips for info about the sites near Jericho, I've been to.

Regular Aspirin Use May Boost Risk of Eye Problem »
"Dec. 18, 2012 -- Taking aspirin regularly appears to slightly raise the risk of the eye condition known as age-related macular degeneration or AMD, new research suggests.

Steroid-related Effects
Advise patients that a cataract may occur after repeated treatment with OZURDEX® . If this occurs, advise patients that their vision will decrease, and they will need an operation to remove the cataract and restore their vision.
Advise patients that they may develop increased intraocular pressure with OZURDEX® treatment, and the increased IOP will need to be managed with eye drops, and, rarely, with surgery.
Intravitreal Injection-related Effects
Advise patients that in the days following intravitreal injection of OZURDEX® , patients are at risk for potential complications including in particular, but not limited to, the development of endophthalmitis or elevated intraocular pressure.
When to Seek Physician Advice
Advise patients that if the eye becomes red, sensitive to light, painful, or develops a change in vision, they should seek immediate care from an ophthalmologist.
Driving and Using Machines
Inform patients that they may experience temporary visual blurring after receiving an intravitreal injection. Advise patients not to drive or use machines until this has been resolved.

Bright Ideas: PZ Myers
In an ideal world, science and politics would be kept distinctly separate, much as we try to with church and state. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. In fact, the intersection of politics and science can be bizarre, filled with vague agendas, exchanges of money, and other things you don't want anywhere near a scientist who is striving for objectivity. Throw in some debates on evolution, and you have a media firestorm. These will be the topics of conversation for MPR's latest installment of Bright Ideas. During this hour-long talk, host Stephen Smith will chat with PZ Myers, author of the immensely popular science blog Pharyngula, where the associate professor at the University of Minnesota, Morris, explores subjects ranging from the opinions of Stephen Hawking to atheism in the media to inaccuracies in creationism arguments to octopus-inspired art (or cephalart, as he calls it). Be prepared for rational thoughts on often-crazy discourses. This event is free, but reservations are required. Call for tickets. (Photo by Sachitha Obeysekara)

Diverse species: Tourists look at various jellyfish at Kakaban Lake atoll. JP/Indra HarsaputraKakaban Island has been nominated as a world heritage zone for its four exceptional species of jellyfish.
The island is like the figure "9", with an atoll or ring-shaped coral in the north and a lagoon inside the circle, which nearby people call Lake Kakaban.
Lake Kakaban contains brackish water with marine biota already undergoing evolution while being trapped inside, producing species different in nature and physical features from those found in the sea. Among them is transparent-body jellyfish (Aurelia aurita), and another lovelier jellyfish the size of the index finger (Tripedalia cystophora).
The one as big as a fist, like a brownish blue incandescent lamp (Martigias papua), is more dominant in number. Along with the three jellyfish species is Cassiopeia ornata, which has become the trademark of Kakaban Island.
What distinguishes these endemic species from those in the open sea is the loss of their stinging capacity. Of the four, Kakaban's prized Cassiopeia has a unique habit of swimming upside down, with its tentacles facing upward.
There are eight fish species in Lake Kakaban, four notable ones are serinding (Apogon lateralis), puntang (Exyrias puntang), coral
fry (Antherinomorus endrachtensis) and needle fish (Zenarchopterus dispar). Rhizopoda roots on the bank of the lake are also found to bear Halimeda and Caulepa algae, resembling small green grapes. Kakaban is thus virtually the last bastion of marine biota in the zone protected from invasion by an ever growing population.
Arif Hadianto, an underwater photographer from Berau Coal Diving Club, mentioned several points on Kakaban Island called Barracuda Point, The Drift, Cabbage Patch, The Wall, Blue Light Cave, The Plateau, Rainbow Run, Diver's Delight and The North Face.
"The names indicate the different underwater panoramas of various types of diving locations on the island. The animals in this lake produce more colorful lights when it's getting darker," he said.
Endemic species: Kakaban Island is home to a few endemic species of jellyfish. Courtesy of Arif Hadianto/Berau Coal Diving ClubResearch conducted by The Nature Conservancy (TNC) in 2004 showed such islands as Maratua, Derawan, Sangalaki and Kakaban were at least home to 444 species of hard coral, 872 species of endemic fish and stingless jellyfish, in the waters of Berau regency. Besides, the largest green turtles in Southeast Asia also lay eggs on the islands.
Kakaban, itself covering 774.2 hectares, belongs to the island group of Derawan. Unlike Derawan with a population of over 4,000 and Maratua with 3,000 Bajo people, Kakaban is uninhabited. Europeans dub the Bajo ethnics sea gypsies or sea nomads. Kakaban in the Bajo tongue means embracing.
It takes 45 minutes from Derawan to Kakaban by speedboat with a capacity of 15 people, costing three times as much as sailing by fishing boat with 4 passengers, which can be hired at only Rp 400,000 for the same distance.
Apart from developing marine tourism on Maratua and Derawan Islands, the Berau regency administration, East Kalimantan, supported by Berau Coal, a coal mining company, is also boosting tourism on Kakaban Island.
Two speedboats sailed rapidly, leaving Maratua Island where The Amazing Derawan Archipelago Underwater Photo Contest was held with photographers from Japan, Australia and other countries participating on March 5-9.
East Kalimantan Deputy Governor Farid Wadjdy and several staff members were apparently stunned by two dolphins leaping around, as if trying to compete with the speedboat.
"After watching underwater photos presenting beautiful submarine panoramas, the view observed from aboard the speedboat is also thrilling with the two dolphins going along," he pointed out.
East Kalimantan, according to Farid, is not only the second largest province in Indonesia with an area of 245,000 square kilometers or about 11 percent of the country's territory, but also has marine potential as its major asset.
It takes 45 minutes from Derawan to Kakaban by speedboat with a capacity of 15 people, costing three times as much as sailing by fishing boat with 4 passengers, which can be hired at only Rp 400,000 for the same distance.
Before reaching the jellyfish lake, Farid and his team had to walk up steps and go down a bank stretching along 120 meters, with the sounds of birds coming from thickets of mangroves on both sides, of the species of tanjang (Bruguiera), apiapi (Avicennia), and pidada (Sonneratia).
Empty island: Several tourists sit in a resort on nearby Maratua Island, the nearest island to Kakaban Island. JP/Indra HarsaputraBerau Regent Makmur expected the provincial administration and central government to build an airport on Maratua Island. With the airport, he hoped the transportation of tourists from Balikpapan to Maratua would be expedited.
Berau Coal spokesman Bintoro Prabowo said Kakaban as an asset of the Berau administration should have its ecosystem conserved. The company has undertaken some activities such as supporting the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) program for the conservation of coral reefs as well as the protection of green turtles (Chelonia mydas) and hawksbill turtles (Eretmochelys imbricata).
A marine expert from Canada, Thomas Tomascik, once called Kakaban a paradise of biological resources in Indonesia. Besides in Micronesia and Philippine islands, brackish water lagoons in the world can also be found on this island.

This is a good place. Indonesia should really be proud of having the various types of jellyfish in the island. I hope this could be promoted as tourist destination, I do want to visit here. Good article!Reply

"Beautiful Baddeck." Baddeck by Tricky_Dicky69
Baddeck Travel Guide: 5 reviews and 41 photos
We first visited NS in 2005 and didn't originally plan to stay in Baddeck but, fortunately, due to a change in plans, we did. We arrived in town late afternoon with nowhere to stay and no idea where to head for. We drove around town for a while and liked the look of The Lynwood Inn which is where we ended up staying for a couple of nights.
Our room had a great view and the town had a laid back, relaxed feel about it. We enjoyed our time here and would say that it is worth staying here for a couple of nights, at least.
Baddeck has no shortage of places to stay, places to shop, places to eat and places to get a drink. Although the town is fairly small there is enough available for whatever you need.
We stayed at The Lynwood Inn which was fab, we ate at The Lynwood Inn & at The Bell Bouy Restaurant which was also really good.
There are also enough places to get a beer as and when required. Enjoy the scenery, chill and enjoy the experience.
What is there to do in Baddeck ? A bit of this and a bit of that really. You can do as little or as much as you want to do but this is a place mainly for just relaxing and chilling out.
We chose to do a local hiking trail which lead up to a nice waterfall after a pleasant walk through the woods. There are plenty of other options, depending on your preferences, including golf, sailing, boat trips etc. etc.
Nice little town and well worth a visit for a few days.
- Pros:Lots - beautiful scenery, relaxed atmosphere.
- Cons:Didn't find any.
- In a nutshell:I came, I saw, I chilled !

perfect weather: attitude soaring
by Ron Olson
posted Sep 6 2011 5:57AM
Have you noticed...your attitude seems to match the weather most of the time. Love fall. Embrace the shorter days and longer nights. The seasons are a changing. Remember the scene from "Titanic" , when leo was standing on the bow with his arms stretched out wide soaking up the wind like a Boston Bull going for a car ride down Sam Cooper Blvd, remember that moment. Do that today. Catch every breeze. Leave some change in the Coke machine. Hold a door open for somebody today. Buy a friend's lunch. Hug a Tiger football player and say we all have days like that. Smash the poop out of a tennis ball and pretend you are in the finals of the US OPEN.
ROLL DOWN THE WINDOWS. Listen to fm100 and find one song that hits home for you.

It was an awesome display of media influence. WCCO-TV (Channel 4) takes hold of the May ratings sweeps with an exposé about perverts who masturbate while surfing the Internet for porn at the Minneapolis Public Library's downtown branch. And before you can say, "Bob's your dirty old uncle," public officials are launching censorship initiatives right and left.
The two-part story, titled "Secret in the Stacks" and narrated by Dimension reporter Trish Van Pilsum, depicted library visitors' rampant use of computers to view sexually explicit Web sites in plain view of other patrons, and criticized the administration's failure to address the issue. Even as WCCO's investigative team drew a bead on its next scandalous target (spring-break debauchery in Mexico!), the Minnesota Legislature passed a bill requiring state-funded libraries and schools to filter out or otherwise prohibit people from viewing "material that under federal or state law is reasonably believed to be obscene or child pornography" and to throw out any patron, young or old, who manages to gain access to the stuff.
Seven librarians who work at the downtown Minneapolis branch filed a sex-discrimination complaint with the Federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, alleging that the library's policies regarding Internet access and printing services created a "hostile and offensive working environment."
And the library's own board of trustees hastily drafted a new policy on Internet use that would create 30-minute time limits for each computer, implement a sign-up procedure (photo ID required), and allow no more than two people at a time to use each terminal. It would prevent children from visiting sites considered harmful to them and altogether prohibit the viewing of "obscene" material (as does the new state legislation). Signs were immediately posted around the library warning that patrons may not view material that violates Minnesota's laws on obscenity.
It wasn't as if WCCO's story marked the first time the topic had popped up. Back in February the Star Tribune had run an opinion piece by a Minneapolis mom who complained about being confronted with porn when she went to the downtown library. The piece prompted a letter to the editor signed by 47 library staff members who agreed. After a subsequent news story exploring the issue, U.S. Senate hopeful David Lillehaug held a press conference outside the library calling for the institution to protect children from pornography on the Internet. (See Off Beat, March 1.)
Through it all, the Minneapolis Public Library remained staunchly opposed to censorship of the Internet. Director Mary Lawson repeatedly appeared in the media defending First Amendment rights and citing the library's role to protect freedom and offer unfettered access to information. Library spokeswoman Kristi Gibson says the recent turnaround is not a retreat from those beliefs, but allows, "It's definitely a recognition that the Internet is a different medium than we've encountered and dealt with in terms of library material. It's pretty clear that the general public feels that the display of obscenity is in violation of the law." Deciding what is obscene is a gray area, even under the state statute, Gibson acknowledges. "We have to act on our best judgment with the interests of all library users in mind," she explains. "We hopefully will not err either way and allow the right to privacy, to view or research and learn what you need to learn. But there has to be an element of judgment."
Although the library formed a committee last fall to create rules for Internet use (privacy screens were put in place in February in response to staff complaints, but according to Gibson they don't completely prevent passersby from seeing what's on the screen), no guidelines had emerged when the WCCO story aired. "With the perceived public concern about the issue after the media attention, the board decided to accelerate that decision," Gibson says.
In its haste to take action, Lawson and the library board are garbling several crucial issues, says Kim Edson, who chairs the intellectual-freedom committee of the Minnesota Library Association. While certain material on the Internet may be illegal, singling it out is tricky. "Only the courts have the constitutional authority to determine what is obscene," Edson points out. "That's not a librarian's job."
The terminology defining "obscenity" in Minnesota's statutes is subjective, peppered with references to "contemporary community standards," and to material that "appeals to the prurient interest in sex" that lacks "serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value" and is presented "in a patently offensive manner."
Says Edson: "It's a very fine line to tread. Obscenity is very difficult to define. One person's pornography may be a very effective safe-sex presentation to another. The mission of the library is to provide access to information, not to restrict it," she adds. "Protecting children is good, but if you chop away First Amendment rights [in order] to protect them, what's going to be left for them when they grow up?"
Libraries historically have been places of open access, where one and all can come to seek information. But while libraries can control the books and materials they bring into their collections, they cannot control what is on the Internet. And that, Edson says, is why the debate about free and open Internet access in libraries is such a difficult one: It never came up before. She believes that libraries must be careful to draw a distinction between allowing patrons to view material that might be offensive to some, and permitting them to act in ways that are disruptive or illegal. "You're looking not at the content, but at the behavior," she argues.
It remains unclear exactly how the Minneapolis Public Library's new policy will take shape--and how it will be enforced--but it undoubtedly will open the door to restrictions that go beyond eliminating disruptions in the library, and into the realm of each person's freedom to look at whatever he or she likes. Moreover, Edson predicts, when libraries statewide begin to interpret the new law prohibiting online viewing of obscenity, many may opt to use filtering software, which tends to weed out certain legitimate sites along with the "offensive" ones.
Policing the problem is not the answer, says local library gadfly Sandy Berman. The former head cataloger for the Hennepin County Library system (a separate entity from the Minneapolis Public Library), Berman calls the proposed measures "draconian." "Librarians should not feel comfortable being moral police. What people are looking at, reading, thinking should not be their business," Berman declares. "Libraries should be the last refuge for people, not necessarily to access pornography, but to access whatever they want, in a nonthreatening atmosphere."
Berman points out that the handwringing over pornography in the library usually involves calls to protect children, and stems from the fear and discomfort Americans exhibit when it comes to discussing sex. That's why, he maintains, people seem so concerned about sexual images being displayed in public but have voiced fewer concerns about violent images, such as photographs from wars or natural disasters. "Dismemberment, death, mutilation--you can find that fairly easily," he notes.
As WCCO's Trish Van Pilsum breathlessly pointed out, public libraries in some U.S. cities have taken steps to prohibit patrons from viewing Internet porn. But others--including those in many of the larger municipalities--have opted to avoid such controls. The New York Public Library, for instance, doesn't prevent patrons from looking at anything on the Web. All of the library's computers have privacy screens, and users must sign up in advance. There are time limits--sometimes 30 minutes, sometimes 15. "People don't have too much time to get in trouble," offers spokeswoman Caroline Oyama.
The Los Angeles Public Library uses screens, sign-ups, and time limits, and also has opted not to censor Internet access, according to spokesman Peter Persic. "Equity of access for all people--that's one of our core values," says Persic, who adds that while some terminals in each library are designated for children's use and open to a page of filtered search engines, even those machines allow unfettered Internet access if the user opts for it.
The Chicago Public Library has followed a similar path. In the children's department, librarians keep an eye on what kids are looking at and redirect them if they seem to be looking at inappropriate Web sites, says library commissioner Mary Dempsey. But in the adult areas, patrons are free to view anything, including pornographic sites. "Adults have a right to look at those things. Adult terminals have privacy screens. If they want to look at it, that's fine. But you don't have to look at it, and I don't have to look at it," Dempsey says. "People are free to surf. We're a big city, with 3 million people. What is objectionable to one person is not necessarily objectionable to another."
Oyama, Persic, and Dempsey say they've encountered only isolated instances of patrons complaining about people using the computers for porn surfing. That has not been the case in Denver, where the matter is a daily dilemma, according to Linda Cumming, director of the city's central library. Still, says Cumming, "We don't pass judgment on what other people are looking at. We are still fierce proponents of First Amendment rights." The Denver library does expressly forbid using its computers for e-mail, chat rooms, or illegal activity, including tampering with the library's network and viewing child pornography (although Cumming notes that some pornographic images that seem to depict children actually show adults who are made to look younger). The library has also installed privacy screens and oriented terminals so they do not face common aisles. About two years ago a central printing system was created so that computer users must pick up printouts at the librarian's desk--a move that Cumming says cut in half the amount of porn being printed at the library.
Cumming says her administration has had many sessions with staff members to discuss the porn situation and their frustrations with it. "We sympathize with them wholeheartedly and find it to be a very sad state of affairs. We tell them to avert their eyes," she adds, explaining that that's the stance the Denver City Attorney can defend. "Just because it's there doesn't mean you have to look at it or be harassed by it. It's not intentional. It's a hazard of the job you've taken."

"Nor Horizon" UCO LLC is committed to promoting poverty alleviation in Armenia by providing high-quality financial and other business development services to enterprising individuals in under-served rural and urban markets who have a strong will to establish and develop their own small-scale businesses.

Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Additional Information
About Fundación ParaguayaFundación Paraguaya is a financially self-sustaining social enterprise that promotes entrepreneurship in urban and rural areas through microfinance, education programs, and more. Its focus on agriculture has helped many farmers boost their crop yields. And a number of other borrowers have taken out loans to start and grow social businesses that have helped deliver eyeglasses, medicines and other helpful services in their local communities.
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.

The popularity of the abacus, now rarely used in the world of calculators, has recently been on the rise as many parents concerned about their children's math ability have started sending them to abacus schools to develop their skills.
The number of applicants for the national abacus certification exam, which peaked at 2.04 million in 1980, slumped to a low of 180,000 in 2005. But since then, applications have been on the rise and hit 200,000 in 2008.
"(The recovery) coincided with the time when many parents started to worry about the academic performance of their children because of the (recent) relaxed style of education" at public schools, said Hiroshi Nakayama, managing director of the League of Japan Abacus Associations. The league organizes the certification exam.
"The value of the abacus has been reassessed because it can improve the calculating ability and concentration power of the user," Nakayama said.
Books and video games to develop math ability and brain power have recently become popular with both adults and children.
Software to develop abacus skills using the Nintendo DS portable game machine has been selling well. Software maker Four Winds Inc. has sold 40,000 copies so far of two abacus training titles.
Sayoko Kuzuhara, 44, runs abacus schools for children in Chiba Prefecture. Her first school in Urayasu filled all its 100 places four years ago, and she opened a second school in April with 130 new students.
Her schools teach children not only the abacus but also math skills, Kuzuhara said.
"What parents want is for their children to improve their math performance at school," she said.
"Learning the abacus will also help children pass the entrance exam (of a higher school) if they improve their thinking power and apply it" to other subjects, she said.
