Many organizations are familiar with inspectors and auditors who independently help assess that standards and regulations are being respected or "conformed to". But how do we make sure that they are doing this correctly and fairly? Accreditation is the independent evaluation of such conformity assessment bodies against recognized standards to ensure impartiality and competence.
To raise awareness about the importance of accreditation, the International Accreditation Forum (IAF) and the International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (ILAC) organize World Accreditation Day (WAD) each year on 9 June. In 2016 the event looks at how we can use accreditation to support public policy.

Workshop Program
The Kenya Bureau of Standards in collaboration with the Department of Civil and Structural Engineering, Moi University wishes to invite you for above mentioned workshop.
The United Kingdom has adopted Structural Eurocodes and consequently the British Standards became obsolete from March 2013. During a workshop in February 2012 in Eldoret (organised by KEBS and Moi University) stakeholders in the sector decided that Kenya adopts Structural Eurocodes standards.
The standardization process started immediately and in September 2012, the Structural Eurocodes with the UK National Annex were adopted as Kenya Standards through Gazette Notice (No. 13048, 14th September 2012). It is expected that by January 2021 the process of implementation of Structural Eurocodes will have been completed for their use in the construction industry.
To ensure seamless implementation of these standards, two 3-day sensitization workshops have been organised. The first workshop has successfully been held in Mombasa in May 2016. The workshops are facilitated by experts from Belgium and the Netherlands. The break-down of the agenda for the workshops is as follows:
Day 1: General Awareness Workshop
Day 2 & 3: Technical Sensitization Workshop
Target group: Technical personnel in Government ministries, Institutions of higher learning, Professional bodies, Control & certification bodies and Companies in the construction industry.
The next 3-day workshop will held in Nairobi on 28th - 30th September 2016
Participants are invited to apply this workshop. The course fee for the 3 days is KES 45,000.

Since President Barack Obama took the oath of office on January 20, 2009, the share price of firearms manufacturer Sturm, Ruger & Company has increased more than 700 percent.
At the close of business on the day of Obama's inauguration, the price of Ruger stock (Ticker: RGR) was $5.48 per share. At the end of the trading day on December 17, 2012, the price of the stock closed at $44.00 per share; an increase of 703 percent in less than four years.
But, Ruger isn't the only gun manufacturer that has seen an explosion in its stock value. Smith & Wesson shares (Ticker: SWHC) have increased 253 percent since Obama moved into the White House.

A Berks County Jail inmate treated himself to a brief taste of freedom Thursday.
The inmate, identified as Ramon Valasquez, walked away from the jail in Bern Township around 10:35 a.m., police said.
State police were about to put their helicopter in the air when a Reading police officer, who was helping with the search, found Valasquez on a trail along the Tulpehocken Creek, near Montgomery Street, in the far northwestern section of the city about 45 minutes after his escape, police said.
Jail officials responded to the scene and positively identified Valasquez, police said.
Valasquez, 45, was returned to the jail. He will be charged with escape, police said.
Prison officials have not said how Valasquez managed to break free from the jail or why he is incarcerated in the first place.
State police were involved in the search, along with officers from the city, Wyomissing, Bern and Muhlenberg townships, Penn State and the county parks department and deputies with the Berks County Sheriff's Department.

Long Branch had taken it figuratively on the chin all week for its unsportsmanlike behavior in a loss to Phillipsburg last Saturday.
Improved behavior wasn't going to be enough to prove to the wrestling community it had put that forgettable showing behind it.
Facing High Point, No. 1 in The Star-Ledger Top 20, gave the Monmouth County school an opportunity to flush away those week-old demons and prove it is still a team capable of glory in 2009.
Long Branch, ranked No. 3, more than acquitted itself yesterday before more than 3,000 at Rutgers Athletic Center in Piscataway when it won eight bouts to stun High Point, winning a 28-27 decision that was decided by criterion-A, greater number of bouts won.
"This was the most difficult week of my coaching career," said Long Branch's Dan George, who earned the 2008 Star-Ledger Coach of the Year honor for leading his team to a 25-0 season, the Group 2 championship and a final No. 2 ranking in the Top 20.
High Point won the Group 3 title and finished No. 1 last year, earning its first Star-Ledger Top 20 Trophy.
"A lot of people questioned our program this week. I think we demonstrated tremendous character today throughout our lineup," George said.
There was no question Long Branch (14-1) came to wrestle and was intent to put a more positive foot forward. But the match itself remained in question right down to the final buzzer of the final bout at 152 pounds. Senior captain Andrew Balina iced it for Long Branch when he fended off John Guzzo's attempt for a major decision that would have given High Point (17-3) the match. Guzzo ended with a 7-1 decision that gave High Point three points and a 27-27 score.
"It was Andrew's time to shine," said Long Branch's 189-pounder Billy George, the nephew of the coach. "He's a tough kid. He's a middle linebacker in football. No offense to Guzzo, but I knew Andrew was not going to be pushed around."
It was the first bout of the season for Guzzo, who transferred backed home from Blair Academy and just qualified to wrestle this week. It showed in the third period, into which he carried a six-point lead. Guzzo started on top needing just two points for a major decision and what would have given High Point a 28-27 victory.
Guzzo gave Balina a neutral midway through the third and picked up a stall point to increase the lead to 7-1 with 40 seconds to go. But he failed to take a meaningful shot the rest of the way.
Guzzo's best chance to put away Balina came late in the first period when Guzzo hit a gator roll with 12 seconds remaining. Guzzo got the takedown and three near-fall points but the buzzer may have saved the day for Long Branch. Guzzo very nearly had Balina pinned as the period ended.
"I was nervous when he had Andrew on his back," Billy George said. "but he was able to keep the bridge and survive.
Jon Robertson had given Long Branch a 27-24 lead in the next-to-last bout of the meet when he edged Ethan Orr, 3-2, at 145 pounds. Robertson escaped and scored a takedown in the second PERIOD to take a 3-1.
Long Branch picked up what proved to be a monumental victory at 135 pounds, where Justin Clarke came through with a crucial victory over High Point's Tyler Forbeck, 5-2. Clarke, third in Region 6 last year, scored a takedown in the first period and hit a reversal in the second to build a 4-2 lead over Forbeck, third in Region 1 last winter.
High Point seemed to have set itself up nicely when Drew Wagonhoffer decked Scott Festejo in 2:39 at 125 pounds to take its first lead at 21-18. Joe Gaccione's 5-3 decision over Doug Cornell at 140 tied the match at 24-24 for High Point.
Another very important victory for Long Branch occurred at 119 pounds, where Jamie Quijano outlasted High Point's Griffin Pannicucci, 4-3. Quijano scored a takedown in the first and second periods and fended off Pannicucci after giving him a neutral to start the third.
Howell, ranked No. 14 defeated unranked Queen of Peace, 55-23, on the adjacent mat before the high schools gave way to the college match pitting Rutgers and Rider.
160: Nick Visicaro (Long Branch), d. Matt Blecker (High Point), 18-3 (TF 5:33).
171: Omar Akel (Long Branch), d. Billy Smith (High Point), 13-11 OT.
189: Billy George (Long Branch), d. Gavin Donahue (High Point), 13-3.
215: Joe Donahue (High Point), d. Randy Rodriguez (Long Branch), 4-1 OT.
HWT: Ameer Washington (Long Branch), d. Anthony Luciano (High Point), 3-1.
103: Nick Francavilla (High Point), p. Andrew Viera (Long Branch), 2:23.
112: Billy Gould (High Point), p. Matt Eggie (Long Branch), 5:02.
119: Jaime Quijano (Long Branch), d. Griffin Pannicucci (High Point), 4-3.
125: Drew Wagonhoffer (High Point), p. Scott Festejo (Long Branch), 2:39.
130: Andrew Cornell (Long Branch), d. Tom DiVitantonio (High Point), 7-2.
135: Justin Clarke (Long Branch), d. Tyler Forbeck (High Point), 5-2.
140: Joey Gaccione (High Point), d. Doug Cornell (Long Branch), 5-3.
145: Jon Robertson (Long Branch), d. Ethan Orr (High Point), 3-2.
152: Joe Guzzo (High Point), d. Andrew Balina (Long Branch), 7-1.

In a previous post I positioned 'prediction' as one practice within an ensemble of temporal repertoires that futurists may use.
Here I want to describe my approach to foresight using a model shown below that contains the following elements …
{ Notice ~ Probe ~ Prospect ~ Presence ~ Practice ~ Perform }
Each of the model elements provides a way to include a variety of epistemological positions (such as theories of vagueness and transient truth for example) and their corresponding exemplar and prototypical practices within each foresight performance being undertaken.
An example panorama of temporal repertoires is shown below. It is not intended to be comprehensive … merely representative of a variety of 'euphemisms' for the concept of prediction … which you recall form the previous post included the notions of 'anticipation', 'expectation', 'forecast', 'foresight', 'prevision', 'projection' and 'prophecy' … etc.
Repertoires (such as those above) can be blended and used with each of the process elements of the foresight model introduced in the first picture above. I give a few examples below to illustrate …
Probe ~ 'reflection' (a mode of probe) involves accessing and returning the contents of the field of the past
Prospect ~ 'anticipation' (a mode of prospection) engages with the field of the future
Presence ~ 'expectation' (a mode of presence) involves an epistemic bridge between the field of the present and the field of the future
Practice ~ three modes of practice are shown … forecast, projection and prediction … that link different temporal fields
Perform ~ repertoires within a temporal panorama may blend (and entail a 'transcend and include' logic of knowledge)
A variety of logics of knowledge may be embraced within the master-model. The centrality of 'Noticing' (in the first picture above) reflects the depth and span of perspectives, and the degrees of epistemic detachment that may be included.
It is this awareness of fallibility (or meta-frame as mentioned in the previous post) … that is a key to the uniqueness, distinctiveness and agency of foresight.

League of Legends
League of Legends or Heroes of NewerthBy Game Ninja Score:
Jul 04, 2011 12:46PM PST
League of Legends is a remake from the creators of the widely popular Defense of the Ancients aka DOTA. DOTA is a famous custom map settings in Warcraft 3. This is probably one (if not the) best free game you can download online because the design of the game is addicting, loads of people play, and the graphics are visually appealing. Not to mention there are 78 customizable champions to choose from but only 10 are available a week (unless you pay or spend a massive amount of influence points to unlock them).
The premise of the game is to control one of many champions all with unique strengths and abilities, to fight your way past hordes of spawning troops (called creep) and destroy the enemy base. Don't forget that all the while you will be attacked by enemy champions trying to gank your hero or destroy your base (almost like a video game version of chess). The part that makes League of Legends really interesting is during every game you buy various weapons or gear to increase the stats of your character such as mana, strength, health, etc and the only way to accumulate gold is by killing creep or enemy champions. So some gamers like to focus on leveling by killing massive amounts of creep and obtaining gold for better gear while others like to focus on killing enemy champions. Usually because I am a greedy person and like Gold :) I like to focus on killing creep and buying better gear before I start focusing on killing champions to know I have the advantage. The game also keeps records of your wins and losses to give you experience points (gain permanent levels) and Influence points (unlocking characters/skins) which is also a rewarding feature that allows players to be matched up with their skill level.

Big blue eyes? Check. A great sense of humor? Check. A steady job? Eh, not so much.
It's not unusual to come up with a list of qualities that potential dates are expected to fulfill, but Joseph Gordon-Levitt says to throw it out.
The Don Jon star, writer and director, 32, says that comparing your date to your wish list may cause you to miss out on their more subtle qualities.
"Those are doomed because you're guaranteed to not be paying attention to the actual person," Gordon-Levitt says on Thursday's edition of TakePart Live. "No person is going to fit into a quantified list."
"But look, I'm not gonna say that I'm completely guiltless in this. We all have our lists," he adds. (Gordon-Levitt is clearly doing some measuring; he recently said that his costar Scarlett Johansson's sex appeal "is just off the charts.")
More advice from Gordon-Levitt: Don't compare your relationship to a movie.
"Jon, the character I play, is constantly comparing his love and sex life to pornography," Levitt explains, "And Scarlett, her character, is constantly comparing her love life to these romantic Hollywood movies, and so if you're constantly comparing your real life to stuff you've seen on the screen, you're always going to be disappointed, because real life is not as simple as that."
"I think real life is a lot more beautiful," he adds. "And look, I love movies, but even the best movie can never be the same as real life."

Italo premier-media mogul attends tax fraud trial
Italo Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi attended his first open court hearing in eight years Monday, charged with tax fraud connected to multimillion-dollar Hollywood deals inked by his Mediaset TV empire.
Berlusconi, flanked by bodyguards and lawyers, entered Milan's courthouse and told throngs of journos the charges against him are "laughable, unfounded and demented."
Ten other defendants — including Mediaset chairman Fedele Confalonieri, VP Piersilvio Berlusconi and U.S. producer-entrepreneur Frank Agrama — face the same charges and deny wrongdoing.
The trial stems from a reported €470 million ($678 million) in movie rights purchased through offshore companies during the 1990s from Hollywood studios, including Paramount and Fox, to allegedly evade taxes and create a slush fund.
The hearing began with prosecutor Fabio De Pasquale asking witness Paola Massia, a former collaborator of Agrama's Harmony Gold, if she could confirm that Berlusconi and Agrama knew each other personally; which Massia did, according to Italian news agency ANSA.
Agrama's lawyer, Roberto Pisano, subsequently asked Massia if she believed Agrama was Berlusconi's "secret partner" in obscure dealings to which she answered no.
Berlusconi, who did not address the court during the2½-half hour hearing, talked to reporters when he stepped outside amid a claque of supporters with blue balloons saying "Silvio, resist!" while critics shouted "Buffoon!"
"There is no proof, no documents, no testimony, no money trail that supports the prosecutors' thesis," he said.
Berlusconi is mounting an offensive against the judiciary after his parliamentary immunity from prosecution was struck down in January,
The pol's court appearance contrasted with last week when he skipped the start of a closed-door preliminary hearing, known as Rubygate, in which he is accused of paying an underage teenager for sex and using his influence to cover it up.On Monday Berlusconi called those charges groundless, while candidly telling journos he had given then 17-year-old Moroccan pole dancer Karima El Mahroug, known as Ruby, $65,000 to buy laser depilation equipment, claiming this was to help Ruby "avoid prostitution" by setting up a beauty parlor with a friend.

E. L. Robinson (UT)
Soft X-ray Transients (SXTs) are interacting binary stars in which a compact star -- a black hole in ~/3 of the SXTs, a neutron star in the others -- is stripping mass from a relatively normal companion star (the ``secondary'' star). One step in the usual method for measuring the mass of the black holes in these systems is to determine the mass ratio from the rotational broadening of the absorption lines in the spectrum of the secondary star. With a few outstanding exceptions (eg, Shahbaz 2003), the observations have typically been analyzed assuming that the observed spectrum is the convolution of the spectrum of a non-rotating star with a line-broadening kernel appropriate for a rotating, spherical star.
We describe a new program for calculating the profiles of the absorption lines in the spectra of stars that fill their Roche lobes in close binary stars. The program calculates the observed spectrum by summing specific intensities over the visible surface of the distorted, lobe-filling star. We use ATLAS to calculate the stellar atmospheres and MOOG to calculate the specific intensities. We show that 1) the absorption-line profiles of a lobe-filling star depart greatly from the profiles of a rotating spherical star, 2) the widths of the profiles vary strongly with orbital phase, and 3) convolving a line-broadening kernel with the spectrum of a non-rotating star does not yield a good model for the profiles because the limb darkening differs from line to line and also differs from the continuum limb darkening.

In this video, we're going to look at another critical concept, one that I feel is really more important than PageRank for all the fuss that is made over the PageRank algorithm. We're going to discuss the importance of putting keywords into your link's anchor texts. The fact is you can have high PageRank pages, but if they're not well optimized, they still won't rank well, and keyworded links are part of the optimization process in a sense. PageRank merely tells the search engines that your site is popular but keywords in the links tell the search engines why. They tell the search engines what your site is about.
PageRank can't do that. Take a look at this search for olive oil face cream. We'll open the pages listed from the organic search results one by one, skipping the shopping and video results. And look at the PageRank. You can see, starting at the top, we have a variety of PageRanks and you'll notice that they're not in sequential order. There's no direct correlation between Rank and PageRank. Clearly, something else is going on. As I explained earlier, PageRank is used as a tiebreaker.
The page has to be a good match for a search query before PageRank ever comes into play. I explained in my earlier course, Analyzing Your Website to Improve SEO, the sorts of on-page things you can do to make your pages match particular keywords. So now we're going to look at an off-page technique to do the same; a very powerful, yet very simple way to use links to make your pages match search queries. Quite simply, you put the keywords you want to rank well for into the anchor text that the link is pointing at your site.
The search engines look at the anchor text to get an idea of what the reference page is all about. If Google, for instance, finds the words olive oil in a link, you can be pretty sure that the reference page isn't about oral surgery or soccer. It makes perfect sense that the reference page should have something to do with olive oil. You know this from your own experience; the text in links is usually closely associated with the subject matter of the reference page. It's such a simple thing, but when you think about it, it makes perfect sense. Words in the links can be generally speaking one of four things.
They can be calls to actions such as click here or click this link or something similar. They can be the name of the website or the company that owns the website. The link text can be a URL, that's common in many directories or listings of websites. Or they can be words that are somehow related to what the reference page is about. So it makes perfect sense that Google and all other major search engines should examine links for clues about the subject matter of the reference page, because they can often find really strong clues.
If a search engine sees a company name in the link, it's fair to assume that the reference page has something to do with that company. If the link contains the words training videos, it's reasonable for it to believe the page has something to do with training videos. And if it sees dozens or hundreds of links with the words training videos pointing to that page, it's convinced and it figures that the page is one that many people think is a good match for the phrase training videos. The search engine has in effect recruited website owners to help it find a good match for the phrase.
Even if the search engine sees a call to action, it's going to associate the page with that call to action. Here's a perfect example. What happens if you search Google for the phrase click here? At or near the top, you'll find the Adobe Reader download page. Open that page and search the source code for the phrase click here. You won't find it. This page is a truly terrible match for the phrase, except for the hundreds of thousands of pages around the web saying something like, If you need to download Adobe Reader, click here.
This is a great example of what has become known as a Google bomb. A Google bomb is created by linking to a specific web page using a particular keyword phrase often for political or humorous purposes. Sometimes it's used to associate an unpleasant or insulting phrase with a particular person, or perhaps to cause a site to attacking someone to rise high in the search results. The most famous example was the "miserable failure" of Google bomb of 2003 when a few score links and blogs managed to associate the phrase "miserable failure" with George Bush's resume on the whitehouse.gov website.
Again, the page was a terrible match as neither word appeared anywhere in the text. Google somehow fixed it four years later, so that "miserable failure" no longer puts George Bush in the number one spot. But this Google bomb still works on Yahoo! and Bing. You see, Google bombs are a function of the way all major search engines read links, so they don't function only on Google. We don't know for sure how Google stopped the "miserable failure" Google bomb. They claimed it wasn't a manual fix, but that they changed the algorithm to stop it happening.
Regardless, Google bombs are alive and well and if you stop thinking of them as a mere trick, you'll realize they're a technique. Your task is to Google bomb your own site with the keywords for which you want to rank well. One of the most common questions I get from new consulting client is why is my competitor ranking higher than me? Often I'll see that my client's website is much better optimized, yet here is this other poorly optimized often ugly site ranking higher. So I'll do a link analysis. We'll look at that in a later video and take a look at the links pointing to the site.
You can see the example here for a site ranking well for the phrase olive oil. Each line is a separate link and in this column you can see the anchor texts for those links. What do we see? Olive oil in various combinations over and over again. Call it what you want; keyworded links or Google bombing, the fact is it works. It's an extremely powerful mechanism for convincing search engines that your site is related to a particular keyword phrase that is the best match in fact. What it means is you want to make sure that many of the links pointing to your site have useful anchor texts, not just your company name and unless that's what you're trying to act for, not merely your URL, not a call to actions such as "click here," but keywords you want to do well for.
Incidentally, this works not only for links pointing to your site from elsewhere, but also for links within your own site. Even within your site, the search engines look at the keyword text to figure out what a page is about. Of course, you have much more control over your own links and external links, so don't forget to use plenty of keyworded links in your own pages.

Painkiller Overdoses in Women (7/9/13)
| More |
Although more men than women die of overdoses from prescription pain medications each year in the United States, women — particularly middle-aged women — are quickly catching up, according to a report published Tuesday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
According to CDC Director, Dr. Tom Frieden, "Prescription painkiller deaths have skyrocketed in women. Mothers, wives, sisters and daughters are dying of overdoses at rates we have never seen before."
What can we do to stop the on-going epidemic of prescription abuse? Please share your thoughts on our comment section.

Basic medical supplies like antibiotics and painkillers are running dangerously low in Haiti.
Many of the hospitals and clinics devastated by the earthquake are struggling to keep up with the overwhelming needs of the people.
Aid workers said the need for medicine generally falls third behind water and tents for shelter. But the need for all three is huge.
The shortages complicate the effort to treat 200,000 people in need of post-surgery care "and an unaccounted number of people with untreated injuries," Elisabeth Byrs, of the U.N.'s humanitarian coordination office said Friday in Geneva.
Experts said it is impossible to get enough supplies into Haiti or distribute them fast enough in a country with a devastated infrastructure.
"The health care system in Haiti has been terribly affected by the earthquake," said Joe Lowry, a spokesman for the International Federation of the Red Cross. "Medical staff have been killed and injured, hospitals destroyed and stocks damaged and depleted."*Originally aired on January 29, 2010.

Fargas was outstanding at times but more importantly was a consistent force and finished with 1,009 yards.
Fargas is a favorite of Al Davis, who loves the speed and quickness that Fargas brings to the offense. After what Fargas did this past season, it would have been hard to believe the organization had changed its feelings.
With the Raiders now holding four quality backs under contract, Arkansas running back Darren McFadden would appear to be out of the equation with the Raiders top pick.

Agoda, Asia's global hotel booking site and part of Nasdaq-listed Priceline.com, has a fantastic range of offers for travelers wanting to experience the wonders of Australia's favorite winter getaway – Melbourne.
As temperatures across the northern hemisphere rise, the prospect of an escape to cooler climes becomes more appealing. While many travelers head to the beach, a holiday of sun, sand and surf isn't the ideal vacation for everyone. But heading south for the winter has many benefits: travelers can enjoy low-season rates, temperatures are milder, summertime crowds have thinned and the spotlight focuses on indoor cultural activities.
Melbourne is one city that really comes to life during winter. Consistently ranked by The Economist as one of the world's top three most livable cities, Melbourne is widely regarded as Australia's cultural capital. Its Victorian architecture and wide avenues are frequently compared to those in Europe's great cities, and, just like Europe, Melbourne offers world-class shopping and dining, as well as boasting a thriving arts scene.
Wintertime in Melbourne (June to August) counters the popular stereotype of Australia being a hot, dry country. Temperatures hover about the 10C mark, mornings and evenings are frosty, and the leaves fall from the trees giving the city a particularly European feel. Agoda has great ideas for a memorable escape this winter, with great Melbourne hotel rates to match right across the city.
Melbourne winter experiences
Stroll along the Yarra River's South Bank.The glassy grey waters of the Yarra reflect Melbourne's city lights – a beautifully romantic winter setting best viewed from some of the city's finest restaurants and hotels. Australia's only Gordon Ramsay restaurants – maze and maze Grill – can be found here.

I'm Massha," I said, "and my partner over there is Vic."
nearly fell over his desk in his eagerness to shake Vic's hand. My
partner was dressed stylishly, if sedately by my standards, in a leisure
suit with a turtleneck and ankle-high boots. His whole outfit was in
soft earth tones, and it was clear the Deveel had him pegged as the
normal member of the twosome. Call it a mischievous streak, but I just
couldn't let it stand at that.
Vic isn't one of our regular staff. He's a free-lancer we bring in
occasionally as a specialist."
specialist?...Are you an interior decorator?"
My partner
gave him a tight smile.
Vic here is tryin' to say," I told the Deveel, as casually as I
could, "is that he's a vampire."
M.Y.T.H. Inc. is hired to
solve six different cases. Skeeve sends one or more members of his team
to solve these cases. In Guido's Tale, Guido and Bunny team up to solve
the mystery of disappearing goods from a factory. In Chumley's Tale,
Chumley chases down Tananda who is trying to collect on a debt that is
outstanding. In Massha's Tale, Massha and Vic team up to revamp a hotel
that is about to open into a colorful hotspot.
In Aahz's Tale, Aahz and
Skeeve team up to help Quigley, who is having a bit of trouble breaking
his contract as court magician on Jahk. And finally, in Gleep's Tale,
yes...Gleep's Tale, Gleep and Nunzio team up to protect a shipment that
everyone seems to want to get their hands on.
Inc. Link is the seventh book
of the Myth Adventures series by Robert Asprin. These books are incredibly funny fantasy tales that normally
around the lives of Skeeve and Aahz. In this book, as with all books
that have a "M.Y.T.H. Inc." in the title, the story will be
told from one of the other character's perspective, other than Skeeve.
This is the first of the new
type of Myth books. It takes a little while to adjust to the new point
of view of this story. After I got used to it, I found that I did like
this point of view, but not as much as when the story is told by Skeeve.
The hardest time adjusting to this new point of view was when I was
reading Aahz's Tale.
Since it was Aahz and Skeeve, I kept forgetting that
Aahz was telling the story and thinking it was Skeeve. The most
surprising story is Gleep's Tale. Gleep is an unexpectedly intelligent dragon. But since his vocal
cords that will allow him to speak human speech will not develop for
another 200 years, he cannot say anything other than "gleep".
I found this tale to be the most entertaining, because of the reactions
to Gleep's actions by Nunzio.
Overall, M.Y.T.H.
Inc. Link is a nice addition to the
Myth series, but I do prefer the Skeeve point of view.
I rated this book a 7 out
of 10.

Witnessing the Re-invention of Vietnam:
A Personal Narratives-based Interpretation of Vietnam's Development Experience and Promises
Using the narrative genre as opposed to the usual explanation-oriented methodology of the strict academic discourse, this book project seeks to create meanings of and to illustrate the status of Vietnam's development experience since the inception of the seminal and well-acclaimed Doi Moi New Deal in 1986--portrayed by most commentators as the watershed development momentum of Vietnam's post-War era.
The purpose of this book is not to extol the virtue of the Doi Moi, rather the contributors are asked to tell personal stories—predominantly drawn from their professional occupations, but also from their private life's vicissitudes—to critically reflect upon the ways in which the alleged change in Vietnam has incrementally become perceptible. The following two pillar questions serve as platform around which a 'common conversation' will gravitate:
How is change mirrored in your all-round occupation in Vietnam, especially in your main professional one?
What would you recommend or envision in order to keep track with the positive trends or, in the reverse case, to redress existing and prevent potential drawbacks in Vietnam's future development experience?
The editor's effort is to cover a broad range of issues and sectors with insightful personal stories reverberating the quality and scope of change therein. Key social sectors (e.g. health, education, food) as well as economic issues (e.g. financial and securities markets, trade, small and medium enterprises), infrastructures, housing, culture (e.g. traditional culture, pop-culture, beliefs, attitudes towards Aliens and foreign lifestyles), institutions and governance, are expected to be exposed in a way that is bifurcated between and enriched by the combined experience of Vietnamese individuals and expatriates.
In this regard, Vietnamese, as well as foreign nationals living or who happened to reside in Vietnam for a reasonable period of time, are invited to submit a one-page abstract to the email address indicated below. Please, make sure to provide your country of origin, your field of professional occupation and the duration of your stay in Vietnam. Should you be a Vietnamese who recently relocated in Vietnam, so please indicate the city and country of your precedent residency. Information about your age range will be highly appreciated. The deadline for the submission of abstracts is April 10, 2009.
The book audience is unrestricted. Scholars, non-academic individuals, tourists and long-term alien residents of Vietnam, as well as people simply interested in Vietnamese contemporary issues are targeted by this publication. The manuscript is expected to be printed and published in early August, 2009.

Product DescriptionThe Delta McKenzie Black Magnum ShotBlocker Target has totally changed layered target technology. The ShotBlocker Target features patented ShotBlocker Welded-Core technology that eliminates the need for platens, plates, cables, wires, straps, or bands. This gives you a tougher target in which the layers or sheets can't shift, move, or fall apart. This target can be shot on all four sides, and the foam slivering that happens with most layered targets when shooting broadheads is greatly reduced. Also offers easy arrow removal and a slimmer profile for extra portability. Designed for use with expandable broadheads and field tips. Bow speed: 250 - 300 fps. Measures 20" x 18" x 11".

America's military and intelligence officers are pledging an even greater commitment to striking down the radical Islamic terrorist group ISIS.
This follows an international effort to track down those who killed American journalist James Foley and new threats to kill Steven Sotloff, the second American journalist being held hostage.
"We're pursuing a long-term strategy against ISIL (ISIS) because ISIL clearly poses a long-term threat," Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel said.
"We'll work with our law enforcement, our intelligence and our military, partners, to try to bring justice to the Foley family and bring the full force of the United States to bear on these savages," FBI Direct James Comey said.

The White House also released and defended details of an unsuccessful mission to rescue several Americans in Syria last month.
ISIS had demanded $130 million ransom for Foley, but the United States refused to consider it.
Meanwhile, the terrorist army has not only been trying to fill Americans with fear by killing Foley, they've also been doing it from inside U.S. borders.
In the last few weeks a photo tweet from an ISIS supporter in front of the White House was posted and a pro-ISIS banner surfaced at the Ferguson riots in Missouri.
But the danger may be more than just about a public relations war.
Texas Gov. Rick Perry is just one of many who fear ISIS terrorists could have already entered the United States through the porous southern border.
"There is, I think, great concern, that the border between the United States and Mexico is unsecured and we don't know who is using that," Perry said.
"What I will share with you is that we've seen historic high levels of individuals from countries with terrorist ties over the course of the last four months," he continued. "Individuals from ISIS and other terrorist states could be, and I think it is a very real possibility, that they may have already used that."

It's sometimes difficult to get a cameraman to leave a location. Times Square is one of those locations. There's so much going on, so many people, so much dancing light and neon, maybe we should shoot forever.
After an hour or so more of post-lunchtime shooting, we decide to retrieve our van from the mysterious elevator-garage, then maybe get a driving shot going down 42nd Street toward the Hudson, which would have been the first blocks of the original Lincoln Highway. And after that, I'm thinking I wouldn't mind stopping at the Strand Bookstore down in the Village. I have a weakness for discount and used bookstores, and the Strand is an old favorite. Bob and Glenn seem OK with heading that way, although they'd really like to find some cheap souvenir and T-shirt shops for stocking up on presents too. I think 14th Street might be fertile ground for that.
42nd Street is slow going. Start and stop. Inch by inch. Never more momentum than half a block. Nonetheless, there's lots to look at, and Bob shoots through the windshield and out the side window. We get to the river, wish there were still a car ferry to take to Jersey, but then we circle around and head downtown. We're not ready for the Lincoln Tunnel yet.
We luck out and find a parking space about a half block from the bookstore. Our hour in the Strand goes fast. I find a few things to buy. Bob and Glenn aren't so lucky. They want souvenirs. I walk up to Union Square with them, decide I should have left my books in the van, and I now want to walk back there, so I arrange to meet the boys in another hour at the car. I stash the books I bought in the back seat, think I may want to take advantage of the men's room in the Strand, and I end up spending the rest of my time browsing there again, mostly on the basement floor.
When I meet back up with Bob and Glenn, I say we can hang out in Manhattan for a while, maybe find some dinner here since Harrison, NJ, may seem bleak after the big city. They agree to stay in town, get some grub and drive back out to our rooms in Jersey after dinner. Bob says, "We'll miss the bad traffic that way too." Bob hates traffic. So I remember Katz's Deli on East Houston. We did a story about their incredible sandwiches in our show Sandwiches That You Will Like, and since we all are still pretty full from lunch, a small sandwich might be perfect for dinner. I forget there are no small sandwiches at Katz's.
It's getting dark by the time we pull up to the curb on Houston, lucking into another convenient parking space. Who says it's hard to find parking the city? We go in, get our tickets; everybody gets a ticket at Katz's — that's how they bill you for your food. We find a table. A guy comes by and says it's too late now for table service. Go to the counter. Bob and Glenn decide they want soup & half-a-sandwich. I think I want to try the new Bauml Bomb sandwich that they're promoting with flyers all around the restaurant. I volunteer to stay and save the table while Bob and Glenn get the food at the counter.
Their bowls of soup are huge. My sandwich is gigantic. A mound of chopped liver, slice of raw onion, cole slaw and then corned beef on top! It looks deadly but delicious. I'm surprised to find it light, yes light, but big and bold. The corned beef at Katz's is perfect. It's the best in the world. (I remember the pastrami as being ideal too.) The bread is fresh but not strong enough. It gives way. I end up with a magnificent messy delight. Lots of pickles too, the barely pickled kind of pickles that are still bright green. Good stuff. With a bottle of Katz's Seltzer to wash it all down.
After dinner, Bob plots our return to Harrison, NJ, via the Holland Tunnel. We ride through both tunnels in one day. We are exhausted by the time we get back to the hotel.
