Acronym: ICCF
International Conservation Caucus Foundation
Website: http://iccfoundation.us/
Organization's Own Description:
The International Conservation Caucus Foundation (ICCF) is a 501(c)(3) educational foundation promoting the projection of U.S. leadership for international conservation worldwide.
Domestically the U.S. has set the world's gold standard for landscape scale conservation dating back to the leadership of President Theodore Roosevelt. In today's 21st century, the U.S. needs to exert responsible and forward thinking leadership in conservation policy and in providing the export of conservation expertise to the world's emerging nations.
For a decade, the mission of ICCF has been to serve as the nucleus for Congressional leadership for U.S. international conservation in concert with the projection of U.S. business and national security interests worldwide.
ICCF underpins the leadership of the bipartisan U.S. Congressional International Caucus (ICC), which comprises more than a third of the U.S. Congress. We educate policy makers on international issues of natural resource management throughout the legislative process. We are pro-business, pro-development and pro-environment. We are committed to market-oriented solutions for conservation and sustainability worldwide. read more

Port Fouad (Egyptian Arabic: بور فؤاد Borfoʾād or Porfoʾād, IPA: [boɾ.foˈʔæːd, poɾ.foˈʔæːd], the first syllable has its pronunciation from French) is a city in north-eastern Egypt under the jurisdiction of Port Said Governorate, located across the Suez Canal from Port Said. It forms the northwesternmost part of Sinai Peninsula and has a population of 560,000 (as of 2003). Port Fouad and Port Said together form a metropolitan area.
Port Fouad was established in 1926, principally to relieve overcrowding in Port Said, and was named after King Fouad I (also transliterated as Fouad), the first holder of the title King of Egypt in the modern era (having previously held the title Sultan of Egypt).
The city is located on a triangular island which is bounded by the Mediterranean on the north, the Suez Canal on the west, and the relatively new junction between the Suez Canal and the Mediterranean on the east. The Suez Canal Authority forms the main employment of the city, and its employees comprise most of the population. It has one general hospital.
After the war of 1967 Port Fouad was the only piece of Sinai held by the Egyptians. The Israeli army tried to capture Port Fouad during the War of Attrition, but failed. After the October War, the Camp David Accord in 1978 Israel agreed to return Sinai to Egypt peacefully, and later the two countries signed a peace treaty. Today Port Fouad is a major Air Defence Position for Egypt.

Has anyone experienced the following error?
I have themes completely turned off and just have the loop called into action within several HTML documents, as I am using wordpress as the DB program for a "press release" page of a site I built. The coding works perfectly in IE6, Safari and Firefox.
However, I have had reports from my computer-inept clients (through one of my associates who actually SAW the problem and couldn't figure it out) that when they tried to view the page on Windows 98 on Internet Explorer 5.5 (and, god help us, AOL's browser), it apparently:
a) did not load the proper stylesheet (linked in my hard-coded php doc)
b) displayed a wordpress logo
c) completely destroyed the entire layout
This said I couldn't get much more detail from them and I have no way to replicate the problem as I don't have a box that old.
The site is here.
My only theory right now is that it's somehow related to the archane system they're running on. But since it's all coming from coding on the back end, and displays just fine when it's output to all web browsers I've tested, I totally can't fathom how any browser of any sort could be dropping in images I haven't even called.
Here's the wordpress code from the front page:
<?php require('./wp-blog-header.php'); ?>
<?php define('WP_USE_THEMES', false); ?>

$posts = get_posts('numberposts=3');
foreach ($posts as $post) : start_wp(); ?>
<?php the_date('Y.m.d'); ?>
» <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark">

Kupe and the Corals is the story of Kupe, a young boy who undertakes an amazing voyage of discovery to learn about corals and the importance of coral reefs to all of the many animals that depend upon them. One night while he is fishing with his father, Kupe observes an astonishing event, thousands and thousands of tiny "bubbles" rising to the surface of the waters in the lagoon near where he lives. Kupe is amazed by this sight and wants to learn more about the "strange pink bubbles" that he has captured in an old jam jar.

Artist: Henri Matisse (French, Le Cateau-Cambrésis 1869–1954 Nice)
Date: 1903; this cast, probably 1930
Medium: Bronze
Dimensions: 23 1/4 x 7 1/2 x 7 1/2 in. (59.1 x 19.1 x 19.1 cm)
Classification: Sculpture
Credit Line: The Pierre and Maria-Gaetana Matisse Collection, 2002
Accession Number: 2002.456.115
Rights and Reproduction: © 2016 Succession H. Matisse / Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York
Although Matisse is best known as a painter, his activities as a sculptor extended through most of his career and resulted in some eighty pieces; the majority are bronzes cast from plaster models. In the 1890s, as an art student in Paris, he had studied and drawn from casts and sculptures in the Louvre as was the academic custom, and his earliest known sculpture-in-the-round (1899-1901) is a study after Antoine-Louis Barye's 1852 bronze, Jaguar Devouring a Hare, from that museum. Soon he began to sculpt compositions of his own devising, focusing exclusively on the human body, most often female, which was the primary subject for his paintings, drawings, and prints as well. The two periods of his greatest sculptural production were 1900-1913 and 1922-32.
Madeleine, I (1901) and Madeleine, II (1903) are typical of his early figurative work. In both, the serpentine stance of the nude model is accentuated, and she appears momentarily caught by the viewer's gaze, before moving around. The spontaneity of Matisse's first version, sculpted from life in his studio, is not lost in his second version, which has a rougher, more staccato surface that captures light and reflects it back as visual movement. As with other of his sculptures developed in a series, Matisse maintained his initial sensation, while progressively increasing its effect with each subsequent variation.

I highly dougbt I'll be getting my money back since these are from China, not to mention their policy is no returns if the package is opened. Unfortunately for me I couldn't tell how sh*tty they were until I opened the package: "18. Can I return the item if I don't like it? Yes you can return it but item must be eligible which means 1. In original, factory condition (unaltered, unworn, undamaged, and with tags attached) and in original packaging." They also lie about shipping in their FAQ section: "16. How much is shipping? We offer free shipping worldwide." That is a huge lie as I was charged almost $10 for shipping.
They worst part is they doctor their comments section. If you look, every single comment is a glowing, rave review. But if you look closely, they have this to say about their comment policy: "Tell us what you think about this item and share your opinions with other people. Please make sure your review focuses only on this item. All reviews are moderated and will be reviewed within two business days. Inappropriate reviews will not be posted." I shared a review and it was never posted. I wonder why? Probably because they felt it was "inappropriate." I will never, ever buy from this place again. I suggest you don't either.

Lady Gaga is back with Artpop, her third studio album. Known for her outrageous outfits as much as for her music, the singer's flamboyant shows have led some to wonder whether she's more style than substance.
As part of her promotional tour, Gaga sat down with CBC's Wendy Mesley for a feature interview. They discussed Gaga's new album, whether her outrageous performances are for shock value alone, her surprisingly traditional upbringing and more.
Gaga said that her single Applause is about her relationship with fame, what that means to her and what it can mean to others.
"It's about this sort of place that we're in society where we're confused about famous people, we're confused about celebrities. We think that all celebrities are just taking photos of their ass on Instagram for attention and that this is what art is," she told Mesley.
"It's not [about that], and it's also not what music is. It's not what showbiz is about at all, and I don't have to do all those things to curate my own legacy."
Mesley also spoke with CBC News Now's Andrew Nichols about the unusual experience of sitting down with Gaga, as film crews micromanaged the spotlights illuminating Gaga, while hordes of young fans – Gaga's Little Monsters – screamed loudly just outside.

Let the unknown crack your heart wide open.
I know nothing.
She is sitting in a park when I speak these words for the first time. I picture her there. Worn blanket hastily pulled from the trunk and hastily thrown on cool fall grass. Leaves overhead beginning to spiral their way into the approaching dormancy of winter. Reverberation of slamming doors ringing in her soul. Crisp autumn air on tear-stained cheeks. I give her the wisdom I need the most.
I know nothing.
Whisper those words with soft lips, hollow throat. Breathe them in and breathe them out. Let them echo in you for a while, love. Grant them sovereignty to swirl and swoop and root down deep. Feel the tingle of truth they raise on lips and fingertips and skin. Let them become, inside and outside and all around you.
I know nothing.
This is the lesson of my fourth decade. The absolute lack of certainty. The unlearning of truths. The releasing of dogma. The submission to the wisdom of emptiness. The surrender at the beginning of unknowing, and the grace that finds me at the end.
I know nothing.
Can you feel the freedom of that? The lack of projection. The release from worry and supposition and what if? Knowing nothing gives space for letting go. Room for continuous rearrangement. Reconstruction. Renewal.
I know nothing.
Five years ago I sat in a room. It is retreat of wisdom and laughter and silent meditation lead by a woman who is both teacher and student. I am barely able to contain the pieces of in-progress-destruction that are my heart and soul and life. Our guide tell us to lift our hands in front of us. Wiggle our fingers in the air.
"All that you can touch is all that is real" she says. And she laughed a laugh that tasted like freedom. I remember this now and feels it mingling with my unknowing, alchemizing along the way into something that feels like the deepest sort of knowing.
I know nothing.
These three words. They become mantra and survival. They become graciousness and surrender. When I wonder and worry and stress. I know nothing. When I crash headlong into the rhetoric of my own stubborn dogma. I know nothing. When I don't understand. When I can't explain. When I'm about to collapse from the weight of my own expectations. When gearing up to high speed crash into the paradox of love and loss. I know nothing.
If you breathe it deep enough, there is room for the unknowing become a singular, spacious everything. The unknowing cracks open your heart. It strips you of the confines of certainty. It brings you to a fierce embrace of all that can never be known. It leaves room for the wild soul within, the one who doesn't concern herself with knowing, because she's too damn busy with feeling and doing and revolutionary being.
I know nothing. Neither do you.
Lover, be brave enough to follow your unknowing as it spirals continuously inward and outward from the edges to the center of your existence and back again. What you will find—at the root of all that you do not, cannot and will not ever know—is the core of all that is.
Right here. Right now. Forever.
Be brave, lover:

Photo of the Week: Emerging Opportunities in Africa
August 01, 2014
Together with public and private partners, TechnoServe is developing innovative mobile solutions for agribusinesses and smallholder farmers.
Grace Zakaria, a flower farmer in Mbulumbulu, Tanzania, uses her mobile phone to receive payment for her seeds. Thanks to an app developed through the Connected Farmer Alliance, Grace no longer needs to make the costly trip to Multiflower, a seed exporter located more than 80 miles away, to get her payments.
The Connected Farmer Alliance (CFA) is a partnership between the U.S. Agency for International Development, Vodafone and TechnoServe that seeks to leverage mobile technologies to increase the productivity and incomes of smallholder farmers. We are working with farming communities and business partners in Kenya, Mozambique and Tanzania to develop and scale mobile applications that will enable rural households to make and receive payments securely, access other financial services, and connect to local and multinational businesses. The program is currently facilitating communications and transactions for more than 8,000 smallholder farmers and four businesses, including Multiflower.
Learn more about CFA in our Annual Report – and see how TechnoServe's work benefited 2.2 million people in 2013.

Several Veterans Health Administration programs are experiencing error rates of 12 percent to 24 percent, exceeding the maximum error limits allowed under a recent law, according to a new report from the Office of Inspector General.
"We concluded that VA did not fully comply with IPERA (Improper Payments Elimination and Recovery Act of 2010) requirements," wrote Belinda Finn, assistant inspector general for audits and evaluations, in the March 14 report. To comply with the law, agencies must keep their error rates at 10 percent or below.
The Veterans Health Administration programs that rose above that maximum level included:
In addition, the inspector general's office recalculated the error rate for the health administration's "Other Contractual Services" account at 24 percent. That was significantly higher than the VA's estimated error rate for that account.
"VHA's estimation methodology needed improvement and our method gives a more accurate improper payment rate estimate," the report said.
Overall, the Veterans Health Administration reported a payment error rate of 11.5 percent on payments of $9.7 billion.
The Veterans Benefits Administration, by comparison, had a much lower rate of reported payment errors, only 1.2 percent errors on payments of $80 billion.
Veterans health officials cited documentation and administrative errors as cause of most of the errors. For example, the health agency said the majority of the errors for Other Contractual Services occurred because payments were not charged to the appropriate cost center.
Finn recommended that the VA's under secretary for health establish controls to ensure that programs meet their targets for reducing improper payments, along with several other improvements. Department officials agreed with the findings and recommendations.

Apparently the VA has resorted to using private contractors who were formerly in the bill collector train of thought.They first claimed that I owed them $30,000 because they did not have proof that my Wife of 20 yrs had divorced her previous husband.After providing them the appropiate documentation they,out of the blue,claimed that my sons birth certificate was only a birth announcment and they needed more information.This kind of harassment is ridiculous,petty,and beneith the Standards claimed by the VA.I would appreciate any advice or insight in how to deal with this new tactic.
From my perspective supporting front line VHA staff, I suspect a lot of these 'errors' are because the reporting and acquisitions requirements are onerous and unworkable. Actual workers are doing what's needed to take care of patients, which to them is more important than keeping the IG happy. It's become increasingly obvious that VA Acquisitions and the IG don't care about patients, as long as the rules are followed.

Impact of Deoxynivalenol on the Intestinal Microflora of Pigs
AbstractDeoxynivalenol (DON), a mycotoxin produced by some Fusarium species, is a frequent contaminant of cereal. In the present study, 24 weanling piglets received either control feed or feed naturally contaminated with DON (2.8 mg/kg) for four weeks. Consumption of contaminated feed significantly reduced the animal weight gain during the first week of the experiment, but had a moderate effect on cultivable bacteria in the pig intestine. By contrast, changes in the intestinal microflora were observed by Capillary Electrophoresis Single-Stranded Conformation Polymorphism (CE-SSCP) in DON-exposed animals, suggesting an impact of this toxin on the dynamics of intestinal bacteria communities.

Tales from the Turpentine Archipelago
Posted by
Staff Writer
Wednesday, September 21. 2011
Comments (0)
Once upon a time, way back in the bad old days in the turpentine gulag, a situation appeared. Someone started selling illicit and tainted spirits in the quarters and the laborers or, hands, as they were known then, were unable to go to work on Monday morning or any day joining Monday. The quality of the moonshine was so poor it was really nothing more than liquid poison. Its maker used a radiator as a condenser and to make matters worse he did not catch and discard the fusel oil, a poison, created during the distilling process.
Those who drank this vile whiskey after payday on Saturday would see all kinds of haints and become so sick it would take until the following Thursday before they were up to par dipping gum from the pine trees and then it was Saturday again and the vision quest would be repeated.
The situation became desperate for the landowner when the turpentine began running out of the cups onto the ground, a financial disaster in the making.
The Big Boss man knew something had to be done so he sent a spy into the quarters to find the source of the whiskey. This done, a cloudy five gallon jug of whiskey was confiscated from the shanty of Durango Kidd. The Boss Man issued an edict that any man bringing whiskey, good or bad, into the quarters before the run of pine sap was gathered would be shot dead and fed to the hogs. The hands knew the Boss Man meant it, so before long things were back to normal and the gum was finally gathered in. Each crop of boxes, or turpentine faces, was 'dipped out.'
Next payday, all the hands were gathered at the commissary awaiting their turn to receive their wages. Once this chore was accomplished the Boss Man gave Durango Kidd his confiscated whiskey. Just as Durango stepped out the commissary door, the Big Boss yelled to all the hands present, "Durango's got that ghost whiskey in the croaker sack he's totin'. Ya'll can take it from him if you want to and drink it all as far as I am concerned."
Durango pleaded in vain for the men to please don't take his whiskey but to no avail. Two hours later the jug was half empty and many of the hands in either a drunken stupor or a trance of some sort. They did not know the Big Boss Man laced the whiskey with a powerful purgative.
One of the hands, Otis, started walking home, staggering from one side of the road to the other and either talking to himself or to some unseen apparition. He made it as far as the wood rider's house and lay down on the porch with just his lower legs dangling off. A baby played nearby.
The woods rider, the top hand, was leaning against the wall rolling a Prince Albert and yelled for his 12 year old daughter to "Come get dis' baby and change his britches. He stinkin'!" She did as she was told, snatching the baby up and going inside. In a minute she came out, sat the baby down and said, "'Dat ain't none of 'dat baby stinkin. 'Das Otis."

But the question is whether women are now equally likely to let their hair down when away from the lads, and then keep schtum about what they got up to when they return to the fold.
Continues Melissa: "We would definitely have a laugh, engage in harmless flirtation and probably end up drinking too much. The flirting is usually done in the hope that it will get us a free drink. It's all very innocent, but we get a great kick out of it."
And she says: "A lot of my friends are quite settled at this stage, so when we go away, they would always let their hair down. Our view is that no one knows us, so we can get away with a lot more than we would when we're at home.
"And what's wrong with having some fun and flirting with the handsome guy at the bar? It never goes any further than that, but it's a laugh at the time," she says.
Having a bit of fun and unwinding is, after all, what a gals' weekend away is all about.
Especially with the amount of stress women in their late 20s and early 30s find them- selves under -- whether it's organising a wedding, working long hours in the hope of promotion, or juggling a young baby with a demanding job.
But is it all just harmless fun and flirtation at the end of the day, or could it all be different in a sunny climate after a few vodkas?
Anne Sexton is sex columnist with Hot Press magazine, and feels that whether women do or don't tell tales about what happens when they are away from home depends on a group's closeness, and womens' attitudes to fidelity.
Anne says: "Yes, I do think that 'what goes on tour, stays on tour' does apply equally to girls' holidays.
"Yet, having said that, I think it does depend on the 'culture' of the group and the nature of the friendships."
She goes on: "If there is a belief in the importance of fidelity within the group, or if there are personality clashes between friends, or one-upmanship in the group, then there is a good chance that gossip will get around.
"However, if it's a group of close friends, everyone will keep quiet," she says.
So, if a friend annoys you, are you more likely to divulge their stolen kisses with an Italian waiter on the Amalfi Coast to their possessive boyfriend?
And can relationships crash on the shores of recrimination following a drunken flirtation on holiday when a friend turns into a frenemy, and maliciously lets the cat out of the bag.
Life coach Tracy Ryan says: "It's a really hard one because while people travel within a group, they are at the same time individuals, and will have their own moral compass.
"I can see there might be a bit of flirtation but it is still, I would think, uncommon for a woman to leave her group of friends and go off with someone. I mean, think of how women group together when away, it would be hard for any man to infiltrate a group of women to begin with.
"And because it is still so uncommon, I can see a woman pulling up another woman on something like that.
"I feel it would become an issue between friends if one did behave a certain way while away. But would she tell her friend's partner? No, I don't think it would go that far."
Tracy adds: "I wonder how much of this 'what happens on tour' attitude is really a matter of bragging. It adds a sense of mystery and intrigue to what otherwise may have been a fairly straightforward holiday."
The question is whether women choose friends on the basis of sharing the same moral code.
Charlotte constantly picks Samantha up for her promiscuous behaviour in Sex and the City, but would a friendship in which two women are so poles apart actually endure in real life?
Or would real-life Charlottes be likely to drop a friend who goes AWOL or, worse still, drop them in it?
Bestselling author Anna McPartlin considers the dilemma of confidentiality -- and decides that over-spending is in fact the issue that women holidaying abroad often make a pact to conceal on returning home.
Anna says: "There are four of us old friends who embark on a city break from time to time based on a whim or upon the promise of a cheap fare.
"In the middle of a hot city we'll chat about our worlds, including our work lives, children or attempts to have children, our guilt, worries and joys.
"And we'll reminisce about the days when life was a series of nights out and hangovers were but a mere myth. And then we'll shop and when we come across that one-in-a-million clothes shop which seems to cater to all our tastes, that's when things become slightly manic.
"Out come the credit cards and a pact is made to keep the secret of our over-spending from our respective partners." HQ

The 6ft 6ins striker, who rose to prominence with four goals during Latics' memorable FA Cup run this season, hobbled out of last weekend's 1-0 defeat at Tranmere.
Scans on the injury revealed extensive bone bruising but no ligament damage.
Smith, 23, will still miss this weekend's npower League One home game with Bournemouth, Tuesday's re-arranged meeting against Hartlepool and possibly next Saturday's trip to Shrewsbury, with the Good Friday clash at Swindon set as a more realistic target.

scooterdepot.us Consumer Complaints & Reviews
Sunny Sports Inc / part
Bought a scooter from this place and the thing is basically slowly falling apart. They made it seem that everything internal would be covered for up to one year and the cosmetic parts exterior would be 6 months now the plastics cracking just from riding it and its only 300 miles on it. Now...
Sunny Sports / Scooter Depot / Non-existent Service
Moped came with a defective part. Took 2 weeks to get an acknowledgment. Sent the defective part back and six weeks later the wrong part was delivered. It takes days to get anyone to answer the phone, the folks who do answer the phone have no clue about what has been ordered or what to do...
Scooter Depot/Sunny Sports Motors, moped / no title with vehicle, refusal to send, fraud, extreme rudeness
I purchased a moped from this company and received it with no title, which means I am unable to register or drive it. The vehicle was purchased on June 26th, and 2 months later I am still trying to force them to send the title. They either answer and hang up without saying anything, answer...
scooterdepot.us 50cc Velocity moped / title/battery not working
Despite numerous calls and E Mails, with extremely rude or no repies at all, finally promised the title so I could register, title insure, and license. Battery simply does not work despite putting it on a charger, etc. Calls and E Mails ignored
Scooter Depot / Terrible service
I read the complaint here and said it was just other people complaining.I was very wrong in not trusting what other consumers had to say. If you buy from this company, you will have to but some anti depressant also.I bought the 150cc atv for my daughter and the salesman was really helpful...
Scooter Depot / Sunny Sports / Save your money, go elsewhere
OMG- don't buy from them. I received the bikes ok- but the company goes by so many different names that I struggled for months to get a legal title. As of today, I still do not have one. I have been lied to so many times... no one needs this madness. Do yourself a favor, no matter how...

Houston Person: Lost & Found
There must be very few musicians as frequently recorded as Houston Person who are as misunderstood, maligned or just plain ignored. The jazz crowd thinks he's just a funkster. And the funk lovers write him off as a balladeer or standards-bearer. Of course, he's all this and more. He's also an accomplished be-bopster, a kick-ass bluesmith, a passionate gospel player, a sensitive accompanist and in addition to becoming quite the talent scout and seasoned producer, he's really turned into a first-rate ballads player. He's always maintained his own sound (right out of the Book of Jug) but he's never really had the audience he's deserved. These two releases, and his brand new disc, Person-ified (Highnote), may help to change all that though. Both Lost & Found and Island Episode contain material that, up until now, has been unavailable and, what's better, contain some truly excellent Person.
Lost & Found contains two full Muse albums issued on one disc, courtesy of , Joel Dorn's new low-priced 32 Jazz label. One session comprises the long lost 1977 album Wildflower, featuring Jimmy Ponder on guitar, Sonny Phillips on organ and electric piano, Idris Muhammed on drums and Lawrence Killian on percussion. This is the record that features Sonny Phillips' classic late 70s funk tune, "Preachin' and Teachin" (also available on the pHo acid-jazz collection, Funky Good Time) as well as some mid-tempo and slow jams that favored Person's distinctive growl. Much of this album, however, catches Person (who produced the disc) using a sort of studio-enhanced echo effect that gives his playing a false, resilient (and unnecessary) ring. It's similar to some of the tactics Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis and Gene Ammons would employ at Rudy Van Gelder's studios in their day. Fortunately, such is not the case on Person's Sweet Slumber, the other half of this terrific CD; a self-produced and formerly unreleased session from 1991 featuring bluesman, pinaist and vocalist Charles Brown. Person is in good form here on an inspired and exceptionally strong blues-based recording. Guest Charles Brown keeps the blues integrity strong and abundant throughout these seven tracks (with occasional vocals). The strongest tracks allow Person to show how accomplished a blues player he can be ("Late Night Lullaby," "No Denial Blues," Trust In Me" and "Sweet Slumber"). A nice surprise that is most highly recommended.

Salman's Ek Tha Tiger scores Rs 175 cr at desi Box Office
Salman Khan's latest movie Ek Tha Tiger, which hit the screens on August 15, has topped the Indian Box Office chart in the second weekend too. The Kabir Khan directed action thriller has done an excellent collection, thereby sidelining new release Shirin Farhad Ki Toh Nikal Padi. The film has crossed Rs 174.95 crore mark in just 12 days.
Many thought that Shirin Farhad Ki Toh Nikal Padi would send down the collection of Ek Tha Tiger in the second weekend, but Salmania, which was still at its peak, gave another chance to the movie to work wonders at the Box Office. Salman-Katrina romantic action movie has added Rs 21 crores to its 12-day total Rs 174.95 crore nett.
The business of Ek Tha Tiger was very low when compared to its performance at the desi Box Office on Thursday. Its collections improved by more than 40% on Saturday. But the movie witnessed a big jump in its business on Sunday. The breakup of its second weekend collection is Rs 4.55 cr on Fri, Rs 7.01 cr on Sat and Rs 9.18 cr on Sun.
However, Ek Tha Tiger has already become a blockbuster movie of the year beating records of all previous Hindi films. The movie has crossed Rs 200 crore mark at the worldwide Box Office on Saturday. Now, it is set to surpass the same mark in Indian collection centres. Stay locked to Box Office reports to read latest updates on its collections.

Oh my, what happens when a novel's lead character dies on the fourth page? Alas, Dr. Fellowes never made it to Ursula's birth (at least not this time around)—he was busy treating a man trampled by a bull.
This novel made many "best book" of the year lists. On a cold winter's night in 1910, a baby girl was born to the Todd family, but alas poor Ursula was born blue. Then she is born again and the family cat, Queenie, smothers her (not necessarily on purpose.) She's born again and drowns while swimming in the sea with her older sister Pamela.
But in between all the births and deaths, (her younger brother Teddy, has his own run-ins with nasty accidents and reincarnation), a lot happens to the Todd family. Hugh, the father, is a banker, and his wife Sylvie, a rather uninvolved mother. In a style and format all her own, Kate Atkinson has reimagined the historical novel.

-They have some wierd non practical way of computing your milege in your log books to the time you have driving. Claiming you've been speeding every other day 75-83 mph (Top speed of their trucks 65mph).
-You'll never see layover pay because they'll streach your loads on you (34hrs before you can get layover pay) so you'll wait about 30 hours between some of your loads.
-No bunk heaters for winter and don't idle during summer kiss your laods away and they'll send you to non idling states (In hopes to get you a fine so you'll stop staying cool).
-They will put everything they can on your monthly driving report that is wrong.
-This company will run you over your clock to finish the load and could care less about your safety. Money matters not you.
-False DAC report to screw you.

The Self (me, myself, I) is a ghost, a phantom creation which is allsmoke and mirrors. The unfortunate part is that we identify and fight with it, react and respond to it and treat it as if itis a living breathing entity.
None of that changes the fact that it is all smoke and mirrors.
The planet is like a mad house with no nurses and far too much medication.

You are, you always have been and you will always be in this same place whether you are aware of it or not.
This place is this eternal now moment. Not as an idea of now, but simply right now.
You find when you stop fighting life that naturally relaxation, openness, loved and loving is all there is. Naturally.
You need to stop the fight. Stop creating that smoke. Only then can life flow without the confusion, frustration and suffering that it appears to be so full of.
Elysha was talking about the mindbody package, and suddenly it struck. That was it. The penny dropped with a clunk. That is what had been missing from the picture over the past weeks. The mindbody package was gone. The Self was gone. There were no internal arisings, no emotions, and no feelings of the package of who I thought I was, which felt like it was just the tip of the iceberg with loads more under the surface. Nothing.
With this revelation the feeling in my chest lit up like a fire and felt as though it was burning and shining like a great beacon of joy. I saw that the Self is dead, in a clear momentary flash. A huge smile suddenly burst out. Joy was breaking through and there was no containing it.
Source: http://www.beyondselfnow.com/diary.html
...a point is reached where the self is so completely aligned with the still-point that it can no longer be moved, even in its first movements, from this center. It can no longer be tested by any force or trial, nor moved by the winds of change, and at this point the self has obviously outworn its function; it is no longer needed or useful, and life can go on without it.
Bernadette Roberts
Source: The experience of no self: A contemplative journey by Bernadette Roberts. P13
......at this point the self has obviously outworn its function; it is no longer needed or useful, and life can go on without it. we are ready to move on, to go beyond the self, beyond even its most intimate union with God, and this is where we enter yet another new life- a life best categorized, perhaps, as a life without a self.
There are no feelings of bliss or joy or any describable feelings at all really, only a sense of forever, filling this moment. Not as a time, forever, or a motion outward to some place, forever, but the eternal now moment as it is. Simple. Like floating in a small room which has many doors and they are all locked shut. Almost sterile. Untouchable.
There is the feeling of being finished. The end. The attention is held right here, in the body, in the moment, with no-one and no-thing. The depth of feeling and connection at the eyes when open and closed is no longer here. There is no internal centre. There is no feeling at all other than the senses operating. It is as if all of the doors to the mind have been shut. Nothing scary, nothing monstrous, just nothing here.
The day to day chores and mechanical flow of life all continued as before, but with no energy going into them. Pushing through in some moments and melting into the abyss in others, no choice in any of it. During sittings it was felt that the body and all of existence was melting and would never return again. When the end of the session came and the responsibilities of life started up again the moves would occur and life would go on as usual.Internally, however, was a whole new paradigm. The perspective had shifted to a whole new sense. The mind was still functioning, but restricted to a strictly practical level. Not a constant burble and with no energy to touch this place. Like a waterfall in slow motion, which defies gravity and seems to float quietly past making no ripple within itself and touching nothing. Only spontaneously emerging when needed and then fading away again.
A true insight occurs in a moment, a split second, and it brings a subtle shift in your perspective. The 'experience' which surrounds the insight is generally entirely superfluous and is merely the Self or mindbody package attempting to own and understand the insight.
If yours is to settle for the familiarity of your mind informancy on a moment by moment basis, then yours will be to continue on in the same manner that you are already doing - even should you find something better. The mind informancy drive is not a giver, it is a taker.

NARA, Footnote.com project takes records about looted assets and concentration camps online
The National Archives and Records Administration has teamed with Footnote.com, an online historical archiving service, to make millions of Holocaust-era records available online — and to memorialize Holocaust victims with Facebook pages.
Last year, the National Archives and Records Administration teamed with Footnote.com on another digital preservation project: a searchable replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall in Washington.
The wall features the names of the more than 58,000 service members who died or were listed as missing in the Vietnam War.
Footnote.com stitched together nearly 1,500 photographs of the wall to create one digital, searchable image.
The company also worked with NARA to make photos from the war available on its Web site and link service records and casualty reports to the names on the wall.
Visitors can search or browse the site by a service member's name, branch of service, hometown or enlistment type. Entries feature photographs and comments posted by other visitors, such as personal remembrances, details on combat situations and requests to connect with family members of fallen comrades.
NARA officials said the massive collection of records about looted assets, concentration camp registers and proceedings of the Nuremberg war crime trials will form part of the Web's largest interactive collection of Holocaust records. The release of the initial 500,000 images of individual documents will make research easier and greatly increase access.
"We cannot afford to forget this period in our history," said Michael Kurtz, assistant archivist and author of the book "America and the Return of Nazi Contraband: The Recovery of Europe's Cultural Treasures."
Footnote.com, which specializes in making digital records from historic documents, plans to eventually digitize about 1 million images of Holocaust-related documents — at no cost to NARA. Users will be able to access the documents for a fee through Footnote.com, but access will be free at NARA research facilities. And the documents will be available on Footnote.com for no charge during October.
In addition, people can use Footnote.com's social-networking tool to develop Facebook-like pages to memorialize Holocaust victims. Footnote's "I Remember" application lets people share photos, comments and stories about victims. Users can create and access the pages through Footnote.com and then share them on Facebook.
"The reason why we put the social component on Footnote rather than just being a repository is [that] there are so many more pieces of the puzzle that need to come together," said Justin Schroepfer, director of marketing at Footnote.com.
Researchers began taking an active interest in Holocaust-era assets in the late 1990s. At first, they focused on dormant Swiss bank accounts and looted gold, but within several years, interest expanded to looted cultural property and artwork, according to the NARA.
To meet the demand, the agency launched an ambitious project to put on microfilm some 2.3 million pages related to the records, said James Hastings, director of access programs at NARA.
Before the agency began putting documents on microfilm, people could only view original materials at NARA's facility in College Park, Md. Microfilming was the first step in transforming the research process, said Greg Bradsher, a senior archivist at NARA who compiled a 1,200-page guide for researching Holocaust-era assets.
"Once we started microfilming, that meant microfilm could be purchased or loaned and could be used elsewhere," he said.
Digitization was the next step. "Rather than sitting down in front of a microfilm reader or a bunch of boxes and going page after page after page, there will be some search capabilities that will allow you to do word searches," Bradsher said. "It just simply speeds up the whole process of research."
Because digitization is costly, NARA works out agreements with companies to help digitize the agency's materials. For online access to Footnote.com's roughly 60 million historical documents, users pay $79.95 per year, $11.95 per month or $2.95 for an individual image.
The new online Holocaust collection has nearly 600 personal accounts provided by the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum and the Ardelia Hall Collection of records related to the Nazi looting of Jewish possessions. In addition, NARA officials are working with British and German government archives to make other asset records available online, Hastings said, and they hope the French archives will also participate.
However, Bradsher and Hastings said that although the records will be more readily available and searchable, the complexity of the topic and the documents involved will still require sophisticated research skills.
"What digitization and online access does is it democratizes access," Hastings said. "All of a sudden, what was open only to the select few who could come to the research room is now open to everybody." The effect of that access "will be interesting to see."

Great Idea for a Kids' Martial Arts Program
This is quite possibly the best kids' martial arts program I've ever seen.
They can go all-out, and it's clearly enjoyable for them; just a more intelligent extension of the play-wrestling we all did with our siblings. In fact, I'd probably say that a person with 5-10 years of childhood experience in this would have more of an edge coming into aikido later than if they'd spent that time doing Kidz Lite Aikido (tm).

Re: Great Idea for a Kids' Martial Arts Program
This is absolutely brilliant. I love it. Martial arts are love and friendship. Yay.
This looks alot like my kids class too.
Re: Great Idea for a Kids' Martial Arts Program
Looks excellent - I wish I could go back in time and enroll myself in these classes. =)
Kajukenbo is like jkd, each school can be very different, but this Tyrrell Ohana has a great design for a kids class.
I don't have kids of my own, but I'm always a great babysitter/entertainer for my friends - I teach them aikido rolls, some gentle judo takedowns, and some bjj sweeps and positions and then they tire themselves out pretty quick.

Besides this, they were going to charge me $800 for my one magazine and give me 5 free subscriptions to other magazines. Well, I just checked out the prices for all of these subscriptions and they would only cost me $270, if I subscribed to them individually.
Aparently, for the $48 dollar subscription to Rolling Stone, this company will take $752 as a payment to give me $228 dollars worth of subscriptions and a 'free' watch. I am going to try to cancel tomorrow, but we will see what happens.
