An analysis of the world's environment and population dynamics with varying carrying capacity, concerns and skepticism
Because of the open-access nature of the environment we consider an ad hoc adjustment of people's environmental footprint to the quality of the environment. The adjustment is motivated by environmental concern, but hindered by skepticism about announced changes in the state of the environment. Changes in the quality of the environment affect Earth's carrying capacity. By expanding the Lotka–Volterra predator–prey model to include these features we show that, despite skepticism, the environment does not deteriorate to a state in which humans cannot exist. We also show that in the ideal case of no skepticism, the interplay between the non-optimally changing environmental concerns and carrying capacity leads the world's environment and human population to a unique interior steady state along an oscillating course. These results require no further technological, social or international progress.

Skip to comments.DNA confirms coastal trek to Australia
Posted on 07/29/2009 8:11:52 AM PDT by BGHater
DNA evidence linking Indian tribes to Australian Aboriginal people supports the theory humans arrived in Australia from Africa via a southern coastal route through India, say researchers.
The research, lead by Dr Raghavendra Rao from the Anthropological Survey of India, is published in the current edition of BMC Evolutionary Biology.
One theory is that modern humans arrived in Australia via an inland route through central Asia but Rao says most scientists believe modern humans arrived via the coast of South Asia.
But he says there has never been any evidence to confirm a stop-off in India until now.
Rao and colleagues sequenced the mitochondrial genomes of 966 people from traditional tribes in India.
They report that several of the Indians studied had two regions of their mitochondrial DNA that were identical to those found in modern day Australian Aboriginal people.
The team compared Indian sequences with those from Aboriginal Australians collected in past studies.
Rao and colleagues used computer programs to predict that a common ancestor existed, between the Indian population and Aboriginal Australians, up to 50,000 years ago.
Skeletal remains, dating back between 40-60,000 years from Lake Mungo in New South Wales, also support the theory that modern human arrived in Australia at least as far back as this, he says.
Rao says he and colleagues sequenced mitochondrial DNA because it is the best type of DNA to use for ancestral studies.
Mitochondrial DNA is passed on by mothers only and does not change much over time.
Evolutionary biologist Dr Jeremy Austin, of the University of Adelaide, says the new data "definitely supports the coastal route hypothesis".
He says that before this research was published, genetic markers from Aboriginal Australians were known to be closely related to markers from traditional Indian and South East Asian peoples.
"But this is the first time people have been able to find these exact same mitochondrial DNA types inside and outside Australia," says Austin.
He says now that a mitochondrial DNA link has been found between tribal Indian populations and Aboriginal Australians it would be interesting to see if a connection exists through the Y chromosome, where DNA is passed only from fathers to sons.

These candid conversations capture the difficulties of reporting during crisis and war, particularly the tension between government and the press. The participants include distinguished journalistsAmerican and foreign, print and broadcastand prominent public officials, past and present. They illuminate the struggle to balance free speech and the right to know with the need to protect sensitive information in the national interest. As the Information Age collides with the War on Terrorism, that challenge becomes even more critical and daunting. "We are very careful in what we talk about publicly. We do not want to paint a picture for the bad guys. So we don't talk very much at all about what we're going to do going forward."Victoria Clarke, Department of Defense "This was a war that was very different. It was conducted primarily by about 200 to 250 special forces soldiers on the ground. There were no reporters with those soldiers until after the fall of Kandahar, until the war was essentially over. There were no eyes and ears, and that's the way the Pentagon wants it."John McWethy, ABC News "I covered Capitol Hill for a very long time and was always astounded by the nonpolitical motivation of a lot of people that are up there who really do want to make the world better, want to make the U.S. better. So don't come away believing that because there are political implications that there are always political motivations."Candy Crowley, CNN "There is a feeling among the community, Muslim Americans, and also overseas that we might become the new enemy. But so far nobody knows whether it is just because of the war or if it's going to last."Hafez Al-Mirazi, Al-Jazeera

" The Media and the War on Terrorism is a gem....For students." Jeffrey E. Stephenson, Media Ethics
For a generation, until the collapse of the Soviet Union, American news organizations reported on the world largely through the prism of the cold war. Particularly on the TV networks' evening news programs, where stories have to be short and preferably dramatic, the East-West conflict was a useful framing device. Moreover, the epicenter of the struggle was in Europe, the part of the world that most Americans care most about and whose cultures American journalists were more apt to understand and whose languages they were more apt to speak. But after the Berlin Wall came down in 1989, international news seemed to lose its urgency for many Americans. Media enterprises turned their attention to domestic matters, which were of greater interest to their consumers. News businesses were not displeased to shut down expensive foreign bureaus. At the same time, without the threat of a rival superpower, U.S. foreign policy makers searched for new defining themes. Revolving attention turned to such topics as human rights, trade, the environment, and regional hot spots; when necessary, news organizations simply parachuted journalists into war zones or other disaster areas. Although the Associated Press, CNN, and a handful of major newspapers-notably the New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, and Wall Street Journal-continued to maintain a substantial presence abroad, by the morning of September 11, 2001, the world outside the United States had become of only modest interest to the rest of the American journalism establishment. That day's horrendous events instantly created a new focus of American national purpose, forcefully articulated by the president, and a new framing device for the media: The War on Terrorism.
What was most immediately apparent about covering this war was its breadth, the vast scope of what had to be included. Take coverage between January 1 and April 5, 2002, on the ABC, CBS, and NBC nightly news. While there were strong competing stories, such as the Enron scandal and the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, 28 percent of total stories still related to terrorism. There were accounts of the battle of Gardez in the eastern mountains of Afghanistan, Israeli-Palestinian violence intensifying in the Jenin refugee camp, airport security testing, the kidnapping of Wall Street Journal correspondent Daniel Pearl in Pakistan, a crackdown on terrorism in Yemen, legal charges against John Walker Lindh and Zacarias Moussaoui, feature stories on how people were coping, and business stories about the impact on the stock market. It was a foreign story and a domestic story. It was a military story, of course, but also a diplomatic and economic story. Coverage of the anthrax scare encompassed health and science. The creation of the Department of Homeland Security was to be a major story about governance and politics.
A complementary impression was the complexity of the circumstances that the United States had been thrust into: a worldwide terrorist network of al Qaeda operatives; the tragedy of Afghanistan; the conflict between Pakistan and India over Kashmir; Russia's President Putin and his war in Chechnya; the aftershocks of the terrorist attacks in the U.S. that would be felt in East Africa, Indonesia, and the Philippines; the unresolved crisis of Palestine; an unfinished agenda in Iraq. All related. And always at root was the need for knowledge of Islamic culture and the Muslim religion, which generally had not been of interest to most Americans. A simple fact: in a 1992 survey of 774 foreign correspondents working for U.S. news organizations, only ten said that they could conduct an interview in Arabic.
To explore a conflict "unusually complex both to wage and to report," in the words of former Brookings president Michael Armacost, the Brookings Institution joined with Harvard University's Shorenstein Center on the Press, Politics, and Public Policy to create the Brookings/Harvard Forum on the Role of the Media in the War on Terrorism. There were twenty sessions-from October 31, 2001, to September 19, 2002, essentially spanning the first year of the war-made up of informal conversations among past and present government officials, foreign and domestic journalists, and scholars. This book of edited transcripts tries to capture the flavor of their discussions.
The book is arranged in six sections. The first, "The Media and the Government: World War II to the End of the Twentieth Century," includes four panel discussions that look back on past crises. In the first discussion, journalists and the spokesman for the U.S. embassy in Saigon during the Vietnam War review press coverage of conflicts from World War II through the 1991 Persian Gulf war. They reflect on changes in technology, changes in the government's attitude toward the press, and economic changes that affect their work. In the second, four former presidential press secretaries explain how they handled national security questions at the White House. Was it ever appropriate to withhold information from the media? Or to leak information to favored reporters? In the third, a former secretary of defense, a former CIA director, and a former U.S. representative to the United Nations remember the media as an obstacle to getting their jobs done, yet in the fourth discussion, a former secretary of state tells how he used the media to promote policies he favored. The press, as seen by high-ranking government officials: obstacle or opportunity? And to what extent was the so-called CNN effect-the impact of instantaneous, worldwide TV coverage-responsible for President George H. W. Bush's decision to send American troops to Somalia in 1992 and President Clinton's decision to withdraw them the next year?
Relations between the Pentagon and the press during the early stages of the war in Afghanistan is the subject of the second section, "War in Afghanistan: The Early Stages." At a November 2001 meeting at Brookings between Washington news bureau chiefs and top Defense Department information officers, the journalists outlined their needs for information and access and the information officers let them know how much the department was willing to provide. Another panel of media critics offered a three-month assessment of the Pentagon's press policies in January 2002. Could the government have been more cooperative in providing reporters with information and access? All agreed that geography and security concerns in Afghanistan made the operation particularly difficult to cover, yet wasn't the problem, one journalist argued, that the press and the government have conflicting institutional positions that cannot be reconciled?
In section three, "The Journalist's Dilemma: Three Stories," the panels turn to the media's coverage of-or disinterest in-three terrorism-related stories to look for clues to why some things that are important (at least in retrospect) do not get much attention. A report by the blue-ribbon Hart-Rudman Commission predicted events much like those that occurred on 9/11, but it was barely noticed when it came out in January 2001. Was that because of competition from other newsmaking events, or was the report too scary, or was it not promoted sufficiently by the commission? The anthrax scare, on the other hand, got plenty of attention. The media's problems lay in deciding what to report in the absence of hard evidence, dealing with scientific uncertainty, and striking the proper balance between being necessarily informative and need-lessly frightening. The third story concerned dissent. In the months following 9/11 there was wide support for the antiterrorism campaign and very few stories about dissent. How much attention should the media pay to dissent when it is a marginal aspect of the national mood? These are the daily dilemmas of journalism.
News gathering in Afghanistan, the Middle East, and Washington is the focus of section four, "Reporting from the Field: Three Sites." In the first discussion, journalists who had just returned from Afghanistan explain the new technologies of war coverage and techniques for surviving in a war in which journalists often were targets. Their vastly different experiences range from being caught in the crossfire of competing Afghan warlords at Tora Bora to being tightly controlled by the U.S. military at Kandahar airport. How do war correspondents assess personal risk? In the second discussion, correspondents covering the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians also touch on reporting in a dangerous environment, but they focus more on sorting truth from propaganda, changes in a conflict with a long history, differences between American and European reporting, and the problems in covering shuttle diplomacy. The third conversation, about news gathering in Washington, takes place among foreign correspondents, who explain the news angles that are especially important to their audience; relations with their editors, who often get breaking news from the United States before they do, through the Internet; their treatment by the U.S. government; and how they deal with their audiences' stereotypes of Americans.
"From Different Perspectives," section five, includes a discussion of the U.S. government's public diplomacy program and whether it differs from propaganda, an assessment of the role of Congress in the campaign against terrorism, an analysis of American public opinion during 2001-02, and the perspectives of four Americans with distinguished careers in public service who were asked to place the war on terrorism and the government's response in a broader context.
The book concludes with section six, "9/11 and Beyond," in which a panel of journalists returns to the beginning, to the remarkable story of how American news organizations covered the events of September 11, 2001. The panelists review relations between the government and the media in the first year of the war on terrorism, and they turn finally to the factors that may account for the dramatic rise and fall in public support for the media that occurred over the year.
Here is an opportunity to eavesdrop on interesting conversations among men and women who have had unique experiences. There is new information-and good stories. The notes to this introduction are meant to constitute a selective bibliography for those who wish to delve deeper into the topics in each section. Certain currents or themes keep popping up, and they are worth further attention.
Technology: Journalism and War Respond to Change
What becomes clear from the first comment in the first panel discussion is how aware journalists are of how changes in technology have affected their work. Daniel Schorr begins by explaining the technology of radio reporting from Omaha Beach on D-Day in 1944, and Ted Koppel joins in: "Let me pick up where Dan Schorr left off, because there is kind of an evolutionary scale here in terms of the technology and how the technology has had an impact on the way that things are covered." He compares TV coverage in Vietnam in 1967, when "as much as three days might elapse between the time that the story was written and the time it got on the air," and today, when "a journalist has to be prepared to go on the air instantly, around the clock." For the audience, that means knowing about events sooner; for Koppel, it also means less time for correspondents to think about and report the events.
Those responsible for government information policy feel the same pressures. Describing what she called "one new dynamic of warfighting and war reporting in the Information Age," Victoria Clarke, the Pentagon's chief spokesperson, has written, "We can be quick, or we can be accurate, but [it] is a challenge to be both at the same time. With news hitting the airwaves or Internet almost as quickly as it happens, journalists are understandably impatient for information. Our challenge is to find a balance between speed and precision-being as quick as we can and as accurate as possible."
The battlefield uses of new technologies-such as small, inexpensive digital video cameras-suggest not only improved ways to relay copy from inaccessible places, but, in the constant tug between military authorities and journalists, the possibility of military field commanders losing control of the story. Michael Gordon of the New York Times explains how using new technologies affected his reporting from Afghanistan: "I had no relationship with the American military, despite repeated efforts to establish one. But what I did have was my sat phone, and I had e-mail, and I could kind of call back to the Pentagon and say, 'Look, this is what I see here. How does it fit with what's supposedly happening?'"
And yet in war today there is another type of technology that also may have a profound impact on what is reported and how. Increasingly military technology, the new tools of war, determines how basic information is provided and authenticated. That began to become apparent in 1991 during the Persian Gulf war, when the world learned of bombs hitting Iraqi targets from U.S. military videotapes presented before an audience of journalists playing the part of "extras" in the drama, asking questions that TV viewers often found irritating. The military clearly set out to dominate the news, and it had the equipment to succeed.
Pentagon briefings, often technologically enhanced, reached an apex under Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld during the fighting in Afghanistan. As reported in the Washington Post on December 12, 2001: "The Rummy Show has aired two or three times a week since bombs-away on Oct. 7, and it's a direct hit. The best zingers make the nightly news and next day's paper. Members of the public call the Pentagon to find out when Rumsfeld-whose friends call him Rummy-will be on television next. Nielsen Media Research figures that something like 800,000 people watch his appearances live on cable." Note how often conversations in this book turn to Rumsfeld's briefings-sometimes in awe, as when German TV correspondent Claus Kleber reported on the reaction in his country, and sometimes in frustration, as when ABC correspondent John McWethy said of the briefings: "Message control is the way that this administration is trying to communicate what it is trying to do." In short, the government's briefing system is designed to give the public the information that the government wants the public to have, but it is not necessarily designed to meet the demands of the press.
At the same time, the advent of two technological innovations-cable TV with its twenty-four-hour news channels and complicated military weaponry that requires explanation-has produced a new breed of semi-journalists: a corps of retired generals and admirals and other experts whose pointers have been much in evidence on TV screens since the 1991 Persian Gulf war.

A printer and paper may soon become scientific equipment. Investigators at University of Maryland, College Park, have demonstrated that a store-bought ink-jet printer can turn paper into a substrate for surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). They hope the advance will make this highly sensitive technique more accessible to non-specialists (Anal. Chem., DOI 10.1021/ac102475k).

The optimal regimen and frequency of follow-up examinations are not well defined because the impact on patient survival is not clear and the quality of data is poor.[33,34,35]
Factors Associated with Recurrence
No prospective randomized trials have demonstrated an improvement in outcome with a specific diet or exercise regimen; however, cohort studies suggest that diet or exercise regimen may improve outcome. The cohort studies contain multiple opportunities for unintended bias, and caution is needed when using the data from them.
Two prospective observational studies were performed with patients enrolled on CALGB-89803 (NCT00003835), which was an adjuvant chemotherapy trial for patients with stage III colon cancer.[37,38] In this trial, patients in the lowest quintile of the Western dietary pattern compared with the highest quintile experienced an adjusted hazard ratio (HR) for disease-free survival of 3.25 (95% confidence interval [CI], 2.04-5.19; P < .001) and an OS of 2.32 (95% CI, 1.36-3.96; P < .001). Additionally, findings included that stage III colon cancer patients in the highest quintile of dietary glycemic load experienced an adjusted HR for OS of 1.76 (95% CI, 1.22-2.54, P < .001) compared with those in the lowest quintile. Subsequently, in the Cancer Prevention Study II Nutrition Cohort, among 2,315 participants diagnosed with colorectal cancer, the degree of red and processed meat intake before diagnosis was associated with a higher risk of death (relative risk [RR], 1.29; 95% CI, 1.05-1.59; P = .03), but red meat consumption after diagnosis was not associated with overall mortality.[39][Level of evidence: 3iiA]
A meta-analysis of seven prospective cohort studies evaluating physical activity before and after a diagnosis of colorectal cancer demonstrated that patients who participated in any amount of physical activity before diagnosis had a RR of 0.75 (95% CI, 0.65-0.87; P < .001) for colorectal cancer-specific mortality compared with patients who did not participate in any physical activity.[40] Patients who participated in a high amount of physical activity (vs. a low amount) before diagnosis had a RR of 0.70 (95% CI, 0.56-0.87; P = .002). Patients who participated in any physical activity (compared with no activity) after diagnosis had a RR of 0.74 (95% CI, 0.58-0.95; P = .02) for colorectal cancer-specific mortality. Those who participated in a high amount of physical activity (vs. a low amount) after diagnosis had a RR of 0.65 (95% CI, 0.47-0.92; P = .01).[40][Level of evidence: 3iiB]

Uluru Ayers Rock, Northern Territory (Part 1)
So one of the most "random" places I have ever been to has got to be Uluru, aka the red desert smack bang in the middle of Australia. In saying that, after being there, I would definitely say it is a must-visit during your lifetime, especially as an Aussie. Although you may think it is just a couple of large rocks, it is pretty different unique and even more of a must-go if you are into hiking.

Sydney to Wollongong (Hungry Wolf Kitchen)
I heart road trips, even if it means just driving for an hour or two to get out of Sydney for a quick break from all the hustle and bustle in our lives. Mostly because the opportunity to do so is rare. Anyways, so after hibernating in all my books, a short road trip was well beyond overdue and was decided that DC and I should road trip it down to Wollongong.

DNA allegedly links man to '96 rape
HOUMA — A 45-year-old is charged with aggravated rape after DNA tests linked him to the 1996 rape of a young girl in New Orleans, police said.
Charles Robertson, 268 Peters St., Houma, allegedly raped the girl Aug. 31, 1996.
Robertson has been in the Terrebonne Parish jail since August, when he was booked on charges of attempted murder and arson for allegedly setting his girlfriend's house on fire.
Eight people, including the girlfriend, were home at the time, deputies said.
Labadieville fight leads to shootings
THIBODAUX — A Luling resident was charged with shooting two people after a brawl led to gunplay, Assumption sheriff's officials said.
Aaron "Tboo" Williams Jr., 24, 1011 N. Paul Fredrick St., was booked Sunday on two counts of aggravated battery, authorities said.
Investigators determined an argument between Popcorn Lane residents and visitors at a nearby house party led to a fist fight and later an exchange of gunfire. One man and one women were each shot in the leg, and another person was hit in the leg with a broken bottle. All three were treated at local hospitals and released.
Williams, an alleged shooter, remained in the Assumption jail in lieu of a $50,000 bond.
The investigation is ongoing.
Alleged thief eludes police
THIBODAUX — A 16-year-old who allegedly stole a truck early Monday morning in Cut Off evaded police through a daylong manhunt, Lafourche sheriff's officials said.
Police responded about 1 a.m. Monday to reports of a truck stolen from East 38th Street in Cut Off. Deputies found the truck on East 40th Street within the half hour, but the 16-year-old suspect allegedly ran.
The same teen unsuccessfully tried to break into neighborhood cars about 3 a.m. and was spotted about 8:30 a.m., covered in mud, on East 43rd Street.
The suspect remains at large, in spite of a daylong hunt by officers and police dogs.
Anyone with information is asked to call 432-2255.
Couple accused of church burglary
HOUMA — A local couple are accused of stealing a pickup, refrigerator, television, communion platter and other items from St. Joseph's Church in Chauvin Tuesday morning.
Ty Fischer, 18, 244 Blakefield Drive, Schriever, and Megan Besson, 17, 603 Poplar St., Thibodaux, were arrested Wednesday morning.
The pickup was found at 121 Fourth St., Houma, Tuesday morning, and most of the other items were in a shed behind the home, deputies said.
Each is charged with burglary, and both remain at the Terrebonne Parish jail. Fischer's bond is $150,000. Besson's is set at $25,000.
Want to learn about politics?
HOUMA — State Rep. Damon Baldone is looking for young people interested in politics to help during the upcoming legislative session.
Pages and sergeants at arms are needed for the session, which runs April 25 to June 23.
For details, call 876-8872. To indicate interest, send a letter to 162 New Orleans Blvd., Houma, LA 70364 or e-mail email@example.com.

Sunday, January 25, 2009. (AP) -- Terrence Oglesby hit five 3-pointers and scored 18 points, Trevor Booker had 11 points and 11 rebounds and No. 10 Clemson broke a two-game losing streak with a 73-59 victory over Georgia Tech on Sunday night.
The Tigers (17-2, 3-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) opened the season 16-0. But after losing a top-10 showdown to Wake Forest eight days ago, the Tigers were thumped by North Carolina -- running their all-time mark to 0-54 in Chapel Hill.
The Yellow Jackets (9-10, 0-6), the ACC's last winless team in league play, proved the perfect bounce-back opponent for the Tigers.
Clemson trailed 34-31 just before halftime on Iman Shumpert's two foul shots, but the Tigers then went on a 28-6 run that spanned the two periods.

Meat And Poultry Plants' Food Safety Investments: Survey Findings
Results from the first national survey of the types and amounts of food safety investments made by meat and poultry slaughter and processing plants since the late 1990s provide evidence that market forces have worked in conjunction with regulation to promote the use of more sophisticated food safety technologies. From 1996 through 2000, U.S. plants as a group spent about $380 million annually and made $570 million in long-term investments to comply with USDA's 1996 Pathogen Reduction/Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (PR/HACCP) regulation, according to a survey initiated by the Economic Research Service. The U.S. meat and poultry industry as a whole during the same time period spent an additional $360 million on food safety investments that were not required by the PR/HACCP rule. Implementation of the regulation began in 1997 and was mandated by early 2000 in all sizes and types of meat and poultry slaughter and processing plants. The full HACCP surveys referenced in this technical bulletin are available at: http://www.ers.usda.gov/data/haccpsurvey

Radio shack is worthless place to buy a prepaid from-these idiot-morons (Iam talking about store mngr and employees) spew dis-information about the prepaid phones they sell (at least in the store I bought from). Might as well go to wal mart.
Any cel phone co. who say's it's acceptable to have to walk outdoors to use phone is nuts and doomed to failure.
Advice: Never buy a gsm phone.
Add to it tracfone 800-867-7183 will give a friendly-different lie on each phone call.
If spending hours calling India over some worthless POS little cheap a*s phone sounds appealing to you..... get a tracfone gsm (double minutes).

I worked for RadioShack for many years and delt with many issues such as yours. I understand your frustration but a GSM phone needs to run onthe GSM network. If there are not many cell phone towers in the area where you where using the phone that could be your problem.
Check out the web site http://www.wireless.att.com/coverageviewer/ to see if you have coverage in your area. The new GSM trackphones run off the AT&T network. You can still get trackphones that run on Verizon's network, they don't use a sim card. You can check the coverage map at http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/CoverageLocatorController?requesttype=NEWREQUEST to see if that has better coverage.
Both phones should be available for purchase still at RadioShack. Verizon and AT&T don't won't people to know that these phone run on their networks because they both have thier own pre-paid phones at much hire prices.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

A month later, he got a card from his instructor saying that he was doing great in Karate and that soon he will be ready to join the Leadership Program. In the meanwhile, he had been listening from the instructor how great it is to join the Leadership program: the new weapons, uniform, XMA practices, etc. Two months later the instructor told me he would like to arrange a meeting with me and my husband to discuss our son's progress in Karate. When we met in the beginning of October, he presented us with a whole new payment contract for the Leadership program. Again we asked what would happen if our son decided he didn't want to continue karate or if we would move away (at the time we were thinking aboout moving back to our contry). Again, we were told that we could interrupt the membership by paying a penalty.
After a year of Karate my son started saying that he didn't like karate anymore, that he was too tired after school to practise it, that the sparring practice, when paired with a stronger student, were too harsh on him and left him complaining of being hurt in the legs or arms. For months I insisted. I dragged him to school. Many times he was sleeping in the car and I had to go back home. Others, he cried so much, begging me not to go. So, after a year and a half he asked me not to take to karate anymore, which I finally agreed.
Then, my battle with the school began. I called his instructor and told him what was going on, He was very cold with me and said that's not with him or his school in West Palm Beach, but the headquarters in Jacksonville. I called them and was told to write a letter explaining the reasons for cancelling my son's membership. By then, I have to say that we were having great financial problems and paying the school tuiton was a burden to our family. I explained everything to the shcool in my letter, just to get the answer that the membership could not be cancelled.
For weeks I tried to negotiate with them, while they continued to charge me even though my son stopped taking classes. I told them that I was given the word by their instructor that we could cancel the membership at any time by paying a penalty. But that was not the case, of course. When I called the instructor again, he was harsh and mean to me. They didn't show any willingness to cancel the membership, stating that "We are not willing to compromise our company policy for one person and not everyone else".
They say that the first program could have been cancelled, but not the second one. They lured the parents to sign into the Leadership program as soon as they can (because this is a more expensive program), and then they they say that the membeship can not be canceled. Now I ask: Why should I pay for a membership I'm not using any more? For a service I'm no longer getting?What's the difficulty in stopping a membership when requested by the parents? Why do the company prefers to see its name being dragged down the drain by the consumers who have used their service? Why are there so many complaints reports filled by the parents? I tell you why. Because the parents are lied to and trapped in a school policy that is totally based on deception.
I'm writing this report because I want all parents, who are thinking to sing up their kid in karate, to know how Karate America operates in the first place. Secondly, to find a karate school that's reliable. There are many good karate schools out there. A school that's straightforward with parets about membeship and contracts. A school that doesn't entrapped parents in a membership that can't be canceled. A school that's honest.

Bonjour, Teacher. Guten Tag, Too.
By ADAM BOWLES
Published: January 13, 2002
WHEN the International School at Dundee opened in Greenwich more than a year ago, the founders of the magnet school insisted that foreign language be treated equally with other, more traditional elementary subjects, such as math and English.
Now, the district wants to extend a similar language program to all its elementary schools, insuring that all its approximately 4,400 students learn a language other than English.
''Research suggests that children who learn a second language early on are apt to become multilingual, become more proficient in their native language and score better in their achievement tests,'' said Douglas Fainelli, the principal of Dundee. ''We feel very strongly that this is not enrichment, this is important learning that all children should have.''
Since at least 1993, there has been a steady but significant increase in foreign -- now more commonly called world -- language programs across the state, particularly in elementary schools.
And, it appears the Sept. 11 attacks will lead to an even greater surge in these programs as educators insist on closing the gap between what students learn and what they know about other cultures and languages.
A regional vocational high school in Bridgeport is teaching Mandarin Chinese for the first time this year. A state association of business executives has started a pilot program this year in which members visit Connecticut students to promote interest in learning other languages. And at least a handful of schools, including Canterbury, have recently reinstated world language programs that were cut from their budgets several years ago.
Mary Ann Hansen, a world language consultant at the Connecticut Department of Education, said she has been getting about five calls a week from school districts who are interested in starting a world language program. Typically, she gets only two such calls a month.
Ms. Hansen said the terrorist attacks revealed a high level of ignorance among students toward Arabs and the rest of the world.
''It made people think seriously about how we've missed the opportunity to train our children in languages,'' Ms. Hansen said. ''It showed us we're too isolated. We don't understand the cultures of the world. Education is a nonmilitary response to Sept. 11.''
Christine Brown, director of foreign languages at Glastonbury Public Schools, said there are parallels between when the Russians launched Sputnik in 1957 and the events of Sept. 11.
''We didn't know about Sputnik because we didn't have experts in the country to speak Russian to monitor their scientific progress,'' Ms. Brown said. ''We still don't understand how people think and you can't get that through English. Many people didn't understand the linguistic complexities and the 50 different languages spoken near the border of Afghanistan and Pakistan. This is not a new message, but the difference is people may be listening because of the events that have occurred in the last two months.''
Soon after Sputnik, the National Defense Education Act was enacted and Glastonbury received a $1 million federal grant to create new learning methodologies using the latest technology, namely the tape recorder.
Now, as president-elect of the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages, Ms. Brown is among the nation's leaders who are calling for more language programs to keep up with the rest of the world. But even before the attacks there were significant enrollment increases in world language classes in Connecticut.
From 1993 to 2001, high school enrollment in this subject increased 21 percent to 84,104 students. During that same time, the number of schools that provided world language to students before grade 8 jumped to 271, up from 98, and the number of districts with such a program nearly doubled from 75 to 143. There are 169 school districts in Connecticut.
But the largest percentage increase took place among younger students. In 2001, there were 31 districts and 60 schools that taught world language before fourth grade, compared with just six districts and 14 schools in 1993.
Nationally, about one in five elementary schools reported teaching foreign languages in 1987, according to a survey by the Center for Applied Linguistics in Washington. In 1997, about one in three elementary schools reported teaching foreign languages.
Nancy Rhodes, one of the authors of the study, said while the increase in foreign language elementary programs is positive, it still is not adequate.
''We only have 32 percent of elementary schools offering foreign language programs,'' she said. ''When you look at the whole scheme of things there needs to be much more.''
Ms. Rhodes added that while many high school students may be bilingual, most foreign students are multilingual, with some learning up to four languages.
Still, technological upgrades have enabled schools here to link with students in other countries, particularly through e-mail pen pal programs and video conferences. Also, recent research showed that the younger a child is exposed to a different language, the easier it is to learn it and the easier it becomes to master complex languages in college.
State curriculum guidelines in 1998 urged schools to incorporate the proficiency of another language and knowledge of other cultures into the core of their curriculums.

Surprises have been the norm in each of the last few Fridays and while there were certainly a couple, Week 9 so far has been all about the top teams standing the tallest and looking good as they were tested around the area.
Area No. 1 The Woodlands showed why its deserving of its lofty status, going on the road to beat Lufkin 31-21 on Friday at Abe Martin Stadium.
Many of the other top-ranked 5A teams in the area took care of business — including Hightower (a 35-10 win over Clements); Cinco Ranch (49-17 over Seven Lakes); Klein Collins (noted below); and North Shore (49-2 over Baytown Lee).
In Class 4A, Angleton took care of business over Santa Fe (35-14) and Brenham (45-14 over Magnolia) rolled also.
In some super early Friday action, Klein Collins improved to 9-0 as they shut down Dekaney 31-7 to clinch the outright District 13-5A title. That game was originally to be played on Thursday night but lightning delayed it, forcing it to be moved to 3 p.m. on Friday.
Over in Houston ISD, Westside picked up a huge win over Madison.
Atascocita notches an important one over Eisenhower.
In double overtime, Terry squeaks by rival Lamar Consolidated 13-10.
In their annual rivalry battle, Kinkaid squeaks by St. John's 14-13.
Now, among the surprises on Friday:
Channelview 36, Port Arthur Memorial 30
Here's a look at the full scoreboard from Friday's action:
Looking ahead to the key games on Saturday:
Our featured game of the night is Washington and Jones, 6 p.m. kickoff at Barnett Stadium. Jason McDaniel will bring the live updates from this District 22-4A battle.
In District 15-5A, Langham Creek will take on Cypress Woods at the Berry Center at 6 p.m.
Here's the rest of the schedule:

Pedro has been in fine form for his country in recent months and his 58th-minute effort in a tight game at the Stade de France was his 10th goal in his last six starts.
He collected the ball on the right, cut inside and lifted a pass out to Nacho Monreal on the left before surging into the penalty area to bundle Monreal's low centre past France goalkeeper Hugo Lloris.
"Pedro is very important for us because he compliments the passing of Xabi Alonso, Xavi and (Sergio) Busquets with his explosive, dynamic movement," Del Bosque told a news conference.
"We still have three matches to go when both France and ourselves could slip up but we are definitely in an advantageous position," he added.
"The three points were the important thing and also that the players passed this test of their maturity."
Spain were under pressure after Friday's 1-1 draw at home to Finland left them two points behind France, who held Spain to a 1-1 stalemate in Madrid in October, with four games left.
Xavi for the visitors and Franck Ribery for the home side had excellent chances in the first half before Pedro edged Spain ahead and they were able to shut the game down with some controlled possession.
"It was crucial to win here," Pedro said in an interview with Spanish television.
"We could not slip up and I am pleased with the way everything turned out," added the 25-year-old, who now has 12 goals in 26 appearances for Spain.
"I arrived on the run, touched the ball and it went in but I am not really sure how I did it."
Spain now begin their preparations for the Confederations Cup in Brazil in June. Their next World Cup qualifier is away to Finland in September and they play their final two games at home to Belarus and Georgia in October.

Alternate Alley Oop Chapter 21 (1) 2/1/2014 Saturday
After Both Eeny the Terrible and Wootietoot were vanquished Alley, Ooola and Dinny still have a big problem. In the Arena one of the last acquisitions of the Hairshirts, Eeny's control agency, they somehow found, captured and brought back a Big Blue hopping carnivore. It was let loose, along with a green spike shooting dino and a large albino mastodon.
The mastodon was killed by Big Blue in a tremendous fight and ate Eeny, her Hairshirt Leader Sheema and her red fire-breathing pterasaur. (At least there is no evidence anyone got away.)
Wizer on his red devil dinosaur is trying to force the big doors open. He calls over several Moovians to help free the chocks so that the bolts can be pulled back. (The other Hairshirts who were alive took to their tamed pterasaurs and flew away.)
Now if she could find a critter to play food taster…
Morning, Oopsters.
No way would Ooola be stupid enough to eat something without knowing whether it is poisonous or not!
Are there hallucinogenic berries? Ooola might be going on another kind of trip
Oola meets Carlos Castaneda, or Uncle Duke.
Rule of thumb from a WWII survival guide: 80% of the blue or black berries in the world are edlble, 50% of the red berries, and 0% of the white berries.
I repeat NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, the thorns are meant to keep away
Is that a piece of dress left on a branch for Alley to detect?
@handiman40, from yesterday:
Thank you for refreshing my memory regarding the "Alley Oop and the berries" story. If I recall correctly, he had a rather "thorny" problem getting those berries! ;-)
Is that a piece of dress left on a branch for Alley to detect?
Good catch!
uh oh, Ooola!
Good Morning Benders and readers of Alley Oop. Poor
Ooola, after ripping her dress, she has mini dress not
usually seen in Moovian parts. As for the berries, she needs to pick one, and find a test subject to test it on.
Since there no humane society to breathe down her neck,
she can test it on a rabbit. I seem to remember there are some in her time.

Great cover that protects my ML350 perfectly. Used outdoors.

Nice Cover for the money, I would suggest ordering a little larger size as I used it on an older car and because of the height of the car it was a little short. Not as soft on the undeside as I had hoped but does the job
