Being intent on purchasing a home in Orlando while living out-of-state, I needed to rely on a realtor to complete all onsite visits and report accurage details via phone and emai. Claudette instilled the confidence in the decision to initiate a contract and complete a purchase by diligently maintaining communication and ensuring all of my desires in a home were fulfilled to the best of her ability. She never made me wait for a response and addressed my concerns with priority, as though I was her only client. I appreciated her responsiveness and professionalism and am very happy with my purchase. Thank you James Benson-Valdez March 2011

Thank you, Claudette, and thank you so very much for the magnificent help you have been from day one. We've worked with a few realtors over the years, but none have done a better job than you at being on top of things, kind, knowledgeable, and just an overall joy to work with. I think the way this all came together is perfect. We'll keep in touch and will look forward to having that drink together the next time we're in the area. Please express my appreciation to John, as well, for the help he has been in looking at the property and getting the work done we needed. We're exciting about reconnecting with him in a couple of years to do the remodeling! April, 2012 B & M Sinclaire

Being unwilling to re-sign with the agency we had hired six months ago, Claudette came immediately to mind. She was one of several agents who had shown our home a few months previous and I had the opportunity to meet her and see her interaction with her clients. She had been personable and forthright and took the time to answer questions which my realtor had not and her clients bought in our neighborhood. My confidence in her has proved to be astute. In the two weeks since she has taken us on, she has done everything which I imagined a good agent should do and more. I have confidence that we are in the best hands possible. Brenda M. 2011

2010-2011 Claudette, I would like to thank you for the consideration and professionalism in all matters relating to the long awaited close on our new Artisan Park condo in Celebration, FL, Claudette, without your guidance and market intelligence that "this was a great deal and please wait it out" this may never have come to fruition. I was amazed at how quickly and simply the actual close was-even after the delay to rescue Louie. You had everything prepared for the close and with just a few signatures we were done. Your recommendations for house cleaning, carpet cleaning and furniture store were excellent. Just another example of the benefits and value a good broker can bring. We are quite pleased with the condo and look forward to becoming your neighbor. We will certainly pass on our good experiences to others. We will see you soon. Best Regards John and Kristine F.

January 12, 2011 To Whom It May Concern: From the moment we met Claudette Busuttil we knew that this was the real estate agent for us. Claudette was the easiest and most informative agent we have ever worked with. She always had our best interests in mind, and because it took us over a year to finally find our property, it made it a very difficult overtaking. We were always kept up-to-date with any new listings, even though we had to sell property first. We are from another state and could only come down at certain times. Claudette made sure she cleared her calendar to make time for us. Any time we called with a question, she called us bank and then found our answer. She knew how to contact many different people, to find out any information that we needed to know about the property. You could not ask for a more professional and caring real estate agent. We will definitely recommend her to our friends and associates, and it is without hesitation that I write this testimonial on her behalf. Sincerely, A. & E. Plevier

Claudette, it was our pleasure working with you. Above all else, you're extremely friendly and easy going, and you had our best interests in mind from day one. We never felt pressured by you to choose one property or area over any other, and we never felt any doubt that you were doing all you could to get us into our new home. I'm not sure if we told you about this before, but we had worked with a different realtor initially. She represented a dear friend of ours in getting her townhouse in the Independence neighborhood. Julie or myself would find properties listed online, and we would forward them to her. She magically never seemed to get those e-mails. However, any correspondence regarding a new construction townhouse at Independence, or anything else in that neighborhood, she was all ears. That was simply annoying, but the breaking point was when she had concerns about my ability to get credit approval. She told us to lie on our loan app and say that we weren't married, and to use Julie's maiden name on the paperwork. It was at that moment that giant, glaring red flags went up and we decided to step back. At that point we were really disenchanted with the whole process and thought about giving up, or at least putting the idea of buying a home off for some time. After we told Larry (Julie's father) about what happened he said we did the right thing walking away from her. It was soon after that that he recommended you to us, and the rest is history as they say. One year ago we were coming up on our one year wedding anniversary and Julie was only a couple of months pregnant. Neither of us dreamed that today we would be moving into a home, but one we love so much. You and your staff, as well as Mike Lesinski, have been amazing through this entire process and we couldn't be more thankful for it. I can't wait to introduce you to my friends and family at the housewarming party! Sincerely, Rich & Julie Marion

Chris LeggettClient, Buyer Jan 18, 2013 After a less-than-positive experience using another local agent (nice lady but not sufficiently hands-on to get us the property we needed), we contacted three agents working extensively in the Hunters Creek area. We never once regretted choosing Claudette as our representative. (I should begin by noting that we were buying a property long-distance, so we really had to depend on an experienced professional to represent our interests.) She kept us regularly updated on new homes coming onto the market (notified us as soon as they were listed), was very flexible in visiting the homes for us and sending us photos so that we could see what it was like), and provided us with reliable, accurate advice on the value of the homes she visited and how they met (or did not meet) our needs. I would note in particular that she never tried to sell us on a property just in order to get the sale, the price range we were in was not particularly high, but we we were never treated as though we were any less valuable a client. Calls/e-mail messages were returned promptly and with helpful information, and she was very patient with us moving through with offers on several properties and then a somewhat challenging purchase of a foreclosed home. As a result of dealing with Claudette, we were able to purchase a very nice property at a fair price. I must also commend her husband John for being very helpful in stepping in while she had a family emergency and for his invaluable advice about the house we purchased during the inspection. Every step of the way, we were treated with courtesy and professionalism by Claudette and her team. We cannot recommend her highly enough!

In answer to: would you consider renting to own?
Hi Dorothy, in today's Central Florida real estate market sellers are truly calling the shots as to how they dispose of their properties, and renting to own is not an option many choose to use. You said you don't have a downpayment, did you know there are governmental programs out there who will assist buyers in the same position you find yourself in today? Depending on how much you are considering to pay rent, you may find a small home, may need some tlc, but I would attempt that prior to searching out rent to own props.

If you're planning on purchasing a home in Winter Haven sometime down the line, now would be the perfect opportunity to do so.

Hi Mimi,when you purchase a short sale the process is long and complicated, however banks are now makeing the approval time much shorter. If you have a June/July expected move date, stay clear of short sales. Foreclosures are bank owned properties and the process moves much faster.

Answered: Mar 7, 2012
Hello Rebecca, That's an excellent question! If you are financing the purchase, your first step should be getting yourself mortgage-pre-qualified. Always research any service providers you may be tempted to hire for the services they have to offer. NEVER, EVER, choose one without doing your due dilligence first. Even if someone offers you a referral sheet, YOU SHOULD DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH, YOU ARE NEVER UNDER OBLIGATION TO HIRE ANYONE no matter how you hear about them. Your research will save you time and possibly thousands of dollars, including even the loss of the property you are interested in purchasing. If you're paying cash for the deal, you need a PROOF OF FUNDS letter from your bank, they will be more than happy to provide you with one, or if you wish you can take your latest bank statement, black out your account number and social security number, leaving only your name and the amount of what you have in the bank. It must equal or go above the amount of the purchase price and any closing costs you may be responsible for. STEP #2: Find yourself a qualified, experienced and highly knowledgeable Real Estate Representative, one who is experienced in all aspects of new home construction, re-sales, bank owned properties and SHORT SALES. If you purchase a SHORT SALE you really need a Realtor Representative who is certified on Short Sales, they should have this designation behind their name: SFR which means: Short Sales & Foreclosure Resource, also look for agents who are qualified to represent buyers and have been accredited with the designation of ABR which means:Accredited Buyer Representative and another designation GRI which means the agent is a Graduate of the Realtor Institute. These designations must be earned, they are not sold or simply given away to agents. Please note there are many other designations out there which are also very useful to have. STEP #3, Now you have chosen your real estate representative, the fun begins: Sit down with your realtor of choice and discuss your desires, you wants and needs and all your available options. The agent should be completely familiar with the areas you are interested in, having purchased and sold properties within those areas, know the community and be able to answer all your questions, inside and out. Step #4 House Hunting!! This is a very exciting time and if you let it, could be also very stressful. Stress is not good, so you should have total confidence in your Realtor.

In answer to: Is it better to rent or own your house?
Owning your own home is far better than renting. When you pay your monthly rent, all you get out of it is a place to live, but homeownership provides certain tax breaks and deductions. You can do almost anything in the house you own, assuming you are not living in a controlled community where they dictate outside paint colors and sometimes even landscaping. As you pay on your home, you build what's called Home Equity and when you accrue a certain amount, you can actually ask your bank for a loan based on the equity you have.

In answer to: can you direct me to homes for rent under 650.00 a month
First of all, which city are you interested in? There are many property management companies out there whose job it is to rent out properties such as you're seeking. Go on line and say "property management companies in Kissimmee" for example and you should get results. Contact them individually and see if they can help you.

Whenever they simply state" Washer and Dryer Hook Ups" it means that both hook ups are available, but no appliances are connected to them. Some units/properties do supply washer and dryer, in this instance they will state: Appliances included. They may even include micro, fridge, stove, etc. Always ask the realtor/agent showing or providing you with listings if any appliances are included.

Try Out One Of The Best Italian Restaurants In Coral Gables
Coral Gables, like most cities in Florida, has some great restaurants. Coral Gables is a great place to raise a family, a great place to retire and a great place to vacation. It's the complete package, and you can't beat Florida beaches. There are plenty of things for you to get into all over the state, but let's concentrate on Coral Gables, specifically great Italian restaurants in Coral Gables.
Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza gets my first look as I see what they have to offer. The simple fact they serve up coal fired pizza is enough to win you over, right? They also serve up delicious chicken wings evidently, have great drink specials and also offer salads. So what's up next on the list? Let's look at a top Italian restaurant in Coral Gables that is great for its Italian dishes like lasagna, chicken fettuccine alfredo and more.
What about the Italian restaurant Fratellino that serves up great Italian bread, some great bruschetta, a wonderful selection of authentic Italian dishes and even a great apple tart you might want to try for dessert. This is the real deal here, one reviewer even saying that the restaurant was quite a realistic experience of what it would be like to eat at a restaurant in Italy. That's an authentic Italian experience, more than just about the food.
That's the way it is at one of the Italian restaurants I really like where I live in Myrtle Beach. The entire experience is made to be special, with even an accordion performer walking around. The restaurant is always buzzing, yet no one is getting extremely loud or anything. It's a fun atmosphere, and since this restaurant makes me think of the one I just described in Coral Gables, Fratellino, I would probably choose to go to Fratellino first. Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza got my first look, but Fratellino would get my first visit.
The next Italian restaurant in Coral Gables on the list is Caffe Abbracci, which is a very unique place. This eatery serves up some great veal dishes and traditional Italian food along with outside of the box choices with fish and black lobster. Now doesn't that sound like a treat? I would have to go check out this one in Coral Gables just for that reason I think.
And then there is Fontana. Fontana serves up caviar and grilled octopus. They also serve up a great eggs benedict, but of course they have regular Italian dishes, too. The reviews about this restaurant also talk about a courtyard setting and great architecture. This restaurant can be found inside one of the top hotels, the Biltmore Hotel.
Which Italian restaurant represents the type of place you would want to visit for the best Italian cuisine? If you have time while on vacation, or if you're local, then you should try them all. But you have to start somewhere, so which is it? I told you I would probably go with Fratellino first.

Anti-Japanese sentiment flared in China after Japan nationalized tiny islands in the East China Sea, called Senkaku in Japan and Diaoyu in China, intensifying a territorial dispute. The move set off violent protests in China and a widespread call to boycott Japanese goods. The islands are administered by Japan but also claimed by China and Taiwan.
Toyota's vehicle sales in China dropped to about half of last year's levels in September to 44,100 vehicles from 86,000 the year before. In August, Toyota sold 75,280 vehicles in China, down 15 percent.

School canceled for week as Post ISD recovers from elementary school fire
Call it a work in progress.
After a record high of 2,135 students in 2012, Lubbock Christian University has suffered an 11 percent enrollment decrease the last two years, reporting a 2014 fall enrollment of 1,902 students earlier this month.
Debrick's parents: 'No one cared enough to stop it or take care of him'

Lubbock county medical examiner releases cause of death for Dalton Debrick
Lubbock police are seeking help identifying the perpetrator of a Thursday night aggravated robbery at Broadway Beverage. Police responded to the robbery call at Broadway Beverage, 1713 E. Broadway, at about 8:40 p.m.
When he became president of Texas Tech, Jon Whitmore meandered through the breezeway of the Administration Building and read the accomplishments of the men who came before him, each cast in bronze.
Now his face hangs among them.
Jacobo Fonseca didn't understand until he saw his grandfather crying.
On Sept. 11, 2001, Fonseca was in fifth grade - too young, he said, to grasp the tragedy unfolding in New York.

Prayer of the Day: For Our President
Mr. President, Please Count the Costs in Libya
America's Greatest Deficit is Spiritual, Not Merely Financial
With all the angst about the economy, the deficit, and a looming government shut-down, I'm still concerned that we're treating symptoms rather than diagnosing the underlying disease.
I know something about this. I spent a week in the hospital last year having loads of tests done -- blood work, heart scans, stress tests, and sonograms. I was discharged without a diagnosis, merely with hopes that by treating the symptoms, whatever was wrong would go away. It didn't. It turned out my real problem was a tick-born disease, and once it was diagnosed, a ten-dollar prescription of antibiotics cured me. Without that ten-dollar prescription to treat the real problem, I could have experienced life-long disability.

Erica Chenoweth directs Wesleyan University's program on terrorism and insurgency research, which she established in 2008. Her work will be featured in the upcoming May issue of Sojourners magazine. Erica is doing innovative research on the strategic effectiveness of civil resistance and nonviolent revolution. Recently, she wrote a post at Monkey Cage on why traditional "peace and security" academic programs should include nonviolence and civil resistance tactics as part of their programs. "It is time for security studies to take nonviolent conflict seriously," writes Chenoweth, "and to incorporate such episodes and their dynamics into the canonical literature."

Double Ugh: Heat Can't Close Deal, Cling To Lead
To a man, the Heat will tell you that this threepeat business has been more difficult than they can imagine.
Once again, the defending champions found out just how difficult against a game Minnesota Timberwolves team at AmericanAirlines Arena on Friday evening.
Mario Chalmers had opportunities to decide the outcome in regulation play and again the first overtime period, then LeBron James had a chance to tie the score late in the second extra session. After all three free throw attempts failed to drop, the Heat finally did in?a double-overtime, 122-121 loss that was as frustrating as any they had suffered this season.
"We had our chances," head coach Erik Spoelstra lamented afterward. "Either a key stop, one less turnover, a free throw here or there . . . We had our opportunities, but they made one more play than we did."
Yet the Heat had to wonder whether they still had something left in their bag at the end. Once again, James did not take the final shot in the fourth quarter and the overtime periods, a fact that didn't sit well with him.
"For me, it's a little frustrating, being in this position again and not being able to get the last shot," admitted James, who was virtually unstoppable with 34 points and four steals. "It happened in the Indiana game (last week) and it happened tonight as well.
"I'm over it right now, but right after the game, I was a little frustrated by it. You give me a second, you give me two seconds, and I feel that I can get a good look at the basket, especially when you look at the other side and Kevin Love gets three of four looks at it to make a game-winner."
The Heat can only hope the defeat won't be a costly one as well.?Instead of a one-game advantage, they remained mere percentage points ahead of the Indiana Pacers in the race for the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs.?The top dogs will meet for the final time in the regular season in Miami on Friday night.
"I let it go, man. I'm over it,"?said Chris Bosh, who contributed 24 points and several clutch shots down the stretch. "We've been doing this for over a month now. (The Pacers) lose, we lose, we win, they win . . . I mean, I just take it as it goes."
Except for the two loud hiccups, Chalmers turned in one of his most productive games of the season. He scored a season-high 24 points and added six assists.
"I let my team down by missing those free throws," said Chalmers, who connected on his eight other attempts. "I missed the two most important ones."
Timberwolves swingman Corey Brewer sank the first of two free throws to break a 121-all tie with one second left in the second overtime. While the Heat considered the foul call to be a bit tacky late in a close game, Norris Cole appeared to ride under Brewer while he was airborne near the basket.
"You just want to see the players decide it at the end," Spoelstra said. "I didn't get a good look at the replay. I just saw (Brewer) shoot a circus shot back (over his head). But still, we had many more opportunities to close that game out regardless of what those three (officials) called."
When ex-Heat center Ronny Turiaf scored on a dunk to give his team a 93-86 advantage with three minutes left in the fourth quarter, the Heat were in dire straights. But Bosh and Chalmers combined for nine points to trigger a late charge that sent the game into overtime.
Dwyane Wade could have made a difference, but a sore right hamstring sidelined him once again. Ray?Allen returned after a five-game layoff and scored 10 points.
Lowe paced the winners with 28 points and 11 rebounds.
"If you can't get up for those guys, they you may as well go home," Love said.
As the Heat know by now, the size of the target has a lot to do with the magnitude of the challenge ahead of them.

Guest Column: Your Community, Your Newspaper, Your Life
As newspaper executives struggle over whether the news should be digital first, tablet first, SMS first or print first, readers know exactly what they want their local newspaper to be — community first.
Reading a newspaper is not like reading a novel, a magazine, a history book, poetry, prose or any other type of literature.
Newspapers are not about what has happened in the past, what is happening some place else, or what happens in an author's imagination.

A bold, modern, colorful and fully responsive template
11:30 AM - 1:00 PM Peoria High School Gold Lions Alumni Luncheon
6:30 PM - 11:59 PM Board of Education Meeting
7:00 PM - 9:00 PM PHS Fall Fine Arts Showcase
5:30 PM - 8:00 PM District-wide Parent University
More than 80 people gathered at the Peoria Stadium on Tuesday, September 20th to tour the facility, hear about the facility needs to keep it functional and provide their feedback for future use of the property. It was the first public forum to help inform the Board of Education as board members plan for the future of the property that includes a football stadium built in 1905. The 80-acre site is in the heart of Peoria, with 32-acres maintained by the Peoria Park District through a long-term lease. Renovations are needed for the condemned visitor stands and the eight-lane track does not meet regulations for IHSA events. In addition, a new roof is needed for the grandstands. A total cost of $1,808,096 is the total anticipated cost of all recommended renovations for the football stadium. In addition, the Peoria Park District spends $50,000 - $55,000 annually for regular maintenance of their leased portion of the property, while Peoria Public Schools spends more than $300,000 per year for maintenance of the remaining acres, primarily to host ten football games each fall (5 PHS home games, 5 Manual home games).
Representatives of the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) will visit Woodruff Career and Technical Center (WCTC), Thursday, September 22, 4:30 – 6:30 p.m. to gather input from the public on the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA). ESSA, a federal law enacted in 2015 to replace the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) act, gives states far more autonomy in determining the type of programming which will best serve students. The act also requires that states gather community input about education planning. To that end, state board of education representatives conducted a first listening tour in April and May 2016. The second phase of the listening tour includes stops in 14 Illinois communities.
The 2016-2017 Peoria Public Schools Calendar is available as a downloadable PDF file. Go to the Students & Parents tab, click on Enrollment/Registration and scroll to the bottom of the page.

In a recent paper in the Archives of General Psychiatry, Easson and Steinhilber2 report a study of murderous aggression in 8 boys. I should like to use their findings as a springboard to make some comments which may lead to further discussion, and to raise some fundamental questions. The authors conclude that "all cases demonstrated that one or both parents had fostered and had condoned murderous assault." The psychopathology of the background family showed certain definite psychodynamic patterns.
The type of behavior manifested by these boys is a most serious form of antisocial behavior and is most complex in its etiology. In a review of some of the vast literature on juvenile delinquency,9 I stated, "There have been many worthwhile contributions from the disciplines of anthropology, sociology, psychiatry and psychoanalysis with a tendency to elaborate upon a specific segment or a

The personality of companies
When we think about other people, we do so in terms that can be boiled down to five discrete personality dimensions: extraversion, introversion, neuroticism, conscientiousness and agreeableness (known as the Big Five factors). A new study suggests that a similar process is at work in our perception of companies and corporations. Google and Apple have personalities too, it seems.
Philipp Otto, Nick Chater and Henry Stott quizzed thousands of people about their perception of hundreds of companies and they've found that our view of companies is encapsulated by four fundamental dimensions: honesty, prestige, innovation and power. These perceived characteristics correlate with traditional economic measures of company performance, but they offer something more.

The Mariners had already hinted that it could be coming, and the results of today's early game made it all but a formality.
Announced after the game by the M's in a release, Taijuan Walker will be Friday's starter in Seattle in the series opener versus the Houston Astros.
When Felix Hernandez was chased after just three-plus innings and eventually saddled with his 20th career loss against the Rangers, his fourth loss in his last five outings, Brandon Maurer relieved and was more or less taken out of consideration for getting the start Friday. With manager Eric Wedge and GM Jack Zduriencik already carefully framing their words over the past few days in talking with the beat writers about who Friday's starter would be following Aaron Harang's DFA, Walker seemed like a real possibility. The fact that his turn in the Rainers' rotation neatly lines up with Harang's spot made it more likely. And then when Felix forced Seattle to burn Maurer, well, you do the math.
The recently-turned 21-year-old Walker has turned in two straight strong starts for Tacoma after a tougher go of things over the five starts before that. His combined season numbers sit at 9-10 with a 2.93 ERA, 1.20 WHIP, 10.2 SO/9. He had a 3.13 FIP in Double-A and sports a 3.62 FIP (and 3.61 ERA) in Triple-A. His last start brought him to 141 1/3 innings on the year and Zduriencik stated over the weekend that they were looking at "around 160" innings for him this season. Putting him in Harang's spot in the rotation starting Friday could provide for six possible starts, but of course Seattle could control that fairly easily with the expanded rosters available to them starting Sunday.
Walker, as we've covered a number of times before, is among the best pitching prospects in all of baseball, with a fastball that can reach the upper-90s, a developing cutter that sits between 90-93 and a change and big curve that both can get swings-and-misses, too. He's extremely athletic, has a terrific pitcher's build and the velocity comes very easily. He ranks 5th in all of minor league baseball with 160 combined strikeouts on the season and that is a big weapon for him. The ground ball is also a big weapon for Taijuan as he consistently works down in the zone and gets good sink on his fastball, but he also elevates it very effectively when needed.
Walker has been over 100 pitches in each of his last three starts for Tacoma and has cleared 90 pitches in 18 of his 25 starts on the year, so it is reasonable to think that he could get in that area in his big league starts, too, depending on how much Seattle wants to work him. Interestingly, the right-hander has been most dominant in the PCL against left-handed hitters, limiting them to a .161/.304/.247 slash with 35 strikeouts in 112 plate appearances (31.3% K-rate), but making sure he is throwing his off-speed pitches for strikes and keeping left-handers honest will be a big key for him at the games' highest level.
Stick with SeattleClubhouse for a complete breakdown of his debut performance. And make sure you check back in to find out the scoop on Walker and the rest of the likely call-ups coming with the roster expansions in September.

How the SDGs can guide Nepal's recovery
25 Apr 2016
By Renaud Meyer, UNDP Nepal Country Director One year ago today, I was playing soccer with my two boys in Kathmandu when at 11:56 the ground started to roll like waves on the ocean. We were struck by a magnitude 7.8 earthquake. By the end of that scary day filled with immediate and strong aftershocks, we started realizing the extent of the damage and feared for the lives lost. After the second earthquake of May 12 and once clear information had been collected from all the affected areas, Nepal had lost 8,880 people. Around 800.000 houses and buildings were destroyed or damaged. Some 3 million people were displaced and thousands of livelihoods were lost. The Post Disaster Needs Assessment pegged the damages and losses at US$7 billion. As we were progressively transitioning from humanitarian to recovery, Nepal suddenly had to address a challenging political and economic six-month period after the promulgation of its long-awaited constitution in September 2015. Disagreements between political parties and parts of the Nepali society over the constitution led to political tensions delaying the passage of the Reconstruction Act and the establishment of the National Reconstruction Authority (NRA). Further, these tensions led to an economic crisis due to Read More
Nepal on my Mind – Looking Back and Looking Forward
15 May 2015
I was taking in the weekend in the Maldives, where I am now posted, when I received a text: "Earthquake in Nepal. 7.5 – 7.9 magnitude." I immediately switched on BBC. A reporter in New Delhi was talking about Nepal's seismic vulnerability, but not much real-time information was available. I turned to Facebook and Twitter. Colleagues and friends in Nepal started to confirm their safety. Slowly footage of destroyed buildings and world heritage sites started to roll in. Since then, I have been staggered by the scenes of devastation. As a Japanese citizen, I am no stranger to seismic events. As I watched the scenes in Nepal, memories from 20 years ago flooded my mind. I was living in Tokyo, in 1995, when a huge earthquake hit my hometown. I helplessly watched the devastation of Kobe. When the city where you grew up is shattered, and family and friends are affected, trauma and sorrow reach a whole new level. Three days after the Great Tohoku Earthquake in Japan in March 2011, which triggered a Tsunami as well, I arrived in Kathmandu for my assignment with UNDP. While UNDP works in a wide range of areas, disaster risk management has always been Read More
Poverty climate connection
16 Apr 2015
Climate change exacerbates poverty among the poorest, yet simple adaptation measures seem to make a difference. The interplay between poverty and vulnerability to disasters and climate change is clearly visible in Nepal's mountainous districts, especially in the country's far west region. Not surprisingly Nepal ranks high on disaster and climate change vulnerabilities and poverty indexes. People's vulnerability stems from poverty and lack of social safety nets, and disaster affects poor creating more poverty – there is a vicious cycle. Most of the poor are subsistence farmers with little or no assets. Poor's assets are localized and inflexible – they cannot be readily exchanged for cash – and a hazard such as flood or landslide can damage their entire assets. Although farming is the main occupation, people are not able to grow enough food for a whole year. Decent agricultural land is scarce, and even the most fundamental services are inaccessible – education, health, water, roads, markets, among other things. The youth go off to the Gulf States and seasonally to Northern India to work as laborers - unskilled youth migration is a major loss to Nepalese economy. Things are further complicated: these highly vulnerable places have seen a decline in crop Read More
Counting climate spending
11 Sep 2014
Do you know how much your country spends on climate adaptation? Well we know how much Nepal does. In Fiscal year 2013/14, Nepal spent 10 percent of national budget or about US $ 500 million. Many of you may think: Why does it matter? It does because despite making negligible contribution to the global warming, Nepal is one of the most vulnerable countries to the climate change. According to an Asian Development Bank report entitled "Assessing the Costs of Climate Change and Adaptation in South Asia," the effect of climate changes 'can cause losses equal to almost 10 percent of the country's annual gross domestic product (GDP) by 2100.' The country also has very little resource to spare for the costly adaptation process. For that very reason it needs to account for every dollar spent on adaptation. By developing a climate spending code, Nepal is now able to track all public spending for climate adaptation directly or indirectly. This will allow better targeting and efficient use of resources. Does your country keep track of climate spending? How vulnerable is your country to climate change? Read More
A catalyst for peace
11 Aug 2014
Equipped with leadership skills and an understanding of their roles and responsibilities, more Nepali women are supporting their communities in peacebuilding and conflict resolution Over the past few decades, there has been a growing recognition of the importance of women's leadership and the need for their participation in conflict prevention and peacebuilding. The adoption of UN Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 1325 and subsequent resolutions paved the way for women's meaningful participation in peacebuilding processes. Nepal developed a National Action Plan (NAP), based on resolutions 1325 and 1820, to enhance augment the participation and leadership of women at all levels of decision-making, conflict transformation and peace processes, including taking measures to address specific needs of women and girls in the design and implementation of all relief and recovery programs, thereby leading to sustainable peace and a just society. However, centralized policymaking often does not reflect the needs and realities of different districts. There seems to be a gap between policy and implementation, especially in the Tarai region. In districts like Parsa, ambiguity still surrounds the role of women members in Local Peace Committees (LPCs). Though, the Government mandated 33 percent women's representation in LPCs, limitations still exist concerning the extent to which Read More
Disaster proofing micro-enterprise
26 Jun 2014
When we talk about disaster risk management we so rarely talk about how to help safeguard small businesses from the impacts of disaster Charikot, 21 June 2014 – When a disaster happens we find ourselves measuring its impact in lives. What is often not considered is the toll it has taken on the livelihoods of those that survive, and the resultant significant and widespread human suffering that will ripple through the economy of municipality, a region, or even an entire nation. The Ministry of Home Affairs Nepal estimates, in 2013 alone, that the country suffered NRs. 342,592,782 of direct losses as a result of disaster – approximately 2 percent of total GDP. In developing countries an average of 80 percent of the economy is comprised of small, medium and micro-enterprises. Nepal is no exception. Yet when we talk about disaster risk management we so rarely talk about how to help safeguard these small businesses from the impacts of disaster. Disasters are responsible for destroying land, crops, livestock, buildings, equipment, supply chains, and other assets every year, contributing to the impoverishment of many who may lose everything. The impact of disaster in Nepal acts as a detractor from long-term poverty alleviation and Read More
Affordable Measures
02 Dec 2013
GLOF risk reduction effort should focus on innovating affordable community-led measures Shoko Noda The Hindu Kush Himalayan region in Asia is home to over 200 million people. In addition over a billion people downstream depend on the rivers and waterways that are fed by these glaciers. As the impacts of climate change become apparent, glaciers in these mountain ranges appear increasingly vulnerable to changing climactic conditions. Loss of glaciers means loss of critical storehouse of freshwater for future generations. It also means an increase in the glacial related disasters, such as glacial lake outbursts floods (GLOFs). Thousands of glacial lakes have already been formed behind the thinning and unstable ice dams. The sudden collapse of such dams can cause catastrophic floods that destroy lives, forests, property, farms and infrastructure. The devastating power of GLOFs can reach hundreds of kilometers downstream uprooting communities and infrastructure in their wake. Even large scale international assistance may not be adequate to address the enormous scope of the challenge. There are over 20,000 glacial lakes in the Himalayas and in Nepal alone 3 are considered to be in potentially dangerous state, according to a 2009 study by International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD). As the Read More
Nepal in the booming South
15 Mar 2013
As development experts would tell you, there is no theory of development as such, but only of underdevelopment. Experts can explain why certain countries have failed to develop, but they can not necessarily prescribe a definitive development path that can lead country X or Y to prosperity. As the rise of the countries in the global South who have adopted different models than that of traditional welfare state in the North shows, there is no one size fits all solution. Each country, including Nepal, has to find its own way. The Global Human Development Report 2013 which was released late yesterday in Mexico endorses this view of multiple development paths and paints a very hopeful picture of the state of global development. It hails the rise of the South and documents key interventions that have allowed the region to grow rapidly. The Report observes that the economic growth of developing countries is influencing global financial architecture by introducing indirect competition and pressuring traditional donors—away from the terms set by 'Washington consensus'—to pay greater attention to the needs of the developing countries. "Overall, the rise of the South is infusing new patterns of resource accumulation into the global financial system and building Read More
Off-grid Prosperity
24 Jan 2013
In September last year, I was in Kharbang Bazar, Dagatundada VDC in Baglung—several hours' drive from the district headquarters on a muddy seasonal road—to witness the transformational changes ushered in by a basic service that many of us may take for granted: access to modern energy. The catalysing effect of modern energy in the form of a 75 kilowatts (kW) micro hydro plant on the development of this village is self-evident. Noodle and soap factories have flourished; school dropout rates have decreased because kids have time to study at night under the light and, in fact, enrollment in the public school has increased because it provides modern computer education; quality of health services have improved because vaccines can be stored in refrigerators, x-ray and pathological laboratory facilities are now available within the village; and the level of public awareness has risen with the introduction of local community radios and access to computers and the internet. A milk vendor does not have to worry about his unsold milk spoiling any more. He can preserve it in a chilling vat. Women do not need to wake up at four in the morning to mill rice and flour in traditional labour-intensive mills. Access to Read More

A self-described "mud man," a video fabulist, and an architect exploring the inner space of biological forms are among this year's 12 recipients of Pew Fellowships in the Arts.
Those selected for the $60,000 awards were tapped first by an anonymous group of nominators, then vetted by a batch of "evaluators," and finally selected by a small panel of artists and arts officials.
In the past, artists themselves applied for fellowships in specific disciplines and winners were selected by discipline panels.

Meet the big beneficiary of the Glencore billions
In about two months' time, or at least by the end of this year, $3.2bn will drop into the corporate bank accounts of Timur Issatayev, chief executive of Verny Capital.
The little-known Kazakh private equity outfit has shot to prominence since it emerged last month as the largest external beneficiary of Glencore's IPO. A full 40% of the proceeds will go to buying out a 42.3% stake Verny holds in Kazzinc, Glencore's local mining venture.
"Then it just sits there…hopefully not for very long," says the 42-yr-old former banker.
"We have a healthy pipeline of projects. The world economy is recovering, so 2009 and 2010 have been good years for private equity investments, and we believe that in 2011 a lot of opportunities remain, especially in our part of the world."
Verny's offices are hidden away at the top of a 16-floor office building clad in the silvery blue that is close to Kazakhstan's national colour. There's no logo or mention of the firm at reception. But inside, there's a hum of activity, as the firms executives manage its 12 investments. As I wait, I hear executives thrashing out whether to outsource staff at a hotel, or train their own.
"That's the business of private equity," says Issatayev. "You have to grind dozens and dozens of projects before you get one to invest in. Our motto is "all genres except boring ones" — we're invested in cement, in telecoms, in infrastructure, and in real estate. "
When I first visit Issatayev speaks only in Russian, but in reality few Kazakh executives are as international. Still only 42, Issatayev was the second ever Kazakh to graduate from Yale University. He then worked at the IMF in Washington, before returning to head the Kazakh arm of Dutch bank ING, after which he become number two at ABN Amro Kazakhstan.
When the last bank he chaired, ATF Bank, was sold to Italy's Unicredit for $2.2bn in June 2007 it thrust the bank's main shareholder, Bulat Utemuratov, into the Forbes billionaire's list.
But the full proceeds of the sale went into Verny's first fund. "For us, creating Verny Capital was an answer to the question, 'Is there life after banking?'" Issatayev says.
Utemuratov, a close aide of Kazakhstan's president, Nursultan Nazarbayev, is still very much involved.
"Yes he's a a major investor," says Issatayev. "From time to time he gives us ideas. You could be scanning the entire market, there are always some things you don't know, so you have to listen to people."
Issatayev clams that roughly half of Verny's investors are now international, however, and the fund invests alongside international companies.
"We had a meeting with the top management of Carlyle Group, and I asked him, 'do you always take partners?'. In his opinion, private equity should do everything on their own. Maybe this works in the developed world, but here you need a strong partner. In all our investments, we try to bring in somebody who knows the industry inside-out."
Kazzinc is a case in point. When Verny Capital bought Vasilkovskoye, the largest gold desposit in Central Asia, back in 2007, the previous owner, Arkady Gaydamak, had not only just been indicted by a French court for arms dealing, he had also failed to make the project work.
"The technology which existed at that time created an economic model which wasn't economic," says Issatayev. "The gold content is very low, so you needed to have a breakthrough in technology, which hadn't yet happened. That was the contribution of Glencore."
Verny gained 18.3% of Kazzinc when it sold the remaining 60% of the mine to Glencore last February. The rest it bought mainly by consolidating the holdings of other Kazakh investors.
In the meantime, nothing stops. Verny may now invest in the IPO of Glencore's Kazakh gold company Altyntau Gold, and may also partner with the company again on other Kazakh investments.
"Investing with Glencore has only been positive. They're very experienced guys and they know what they're doing. What's good about them is that you'd expect that such a big company would be slow in decision-making, but they're actually very fast."
On Wednesday, the day after our interview, it emerged that Verny Capital had bought the Ritz-Carlton in Moscow for an estimated $600m.

Quoting Mean Girls isn't just a sport. It's a national pastime. Mean Girls is how we make sense of the world, giving the chaos of the universe a recognizable template by which to understand it. More than any writer of her age (and I'm serious), Tina Fey has changed the ways that young people speak and interact with each other, introducing lovely new phrases into the vernacular like "fetch" and "that's not a thing." If I had to go an entire day without using a Fey-ism, I don't know if I could do it. Tina Fey gives me life. She is my reason for being.
With that in mind, I compiled a list of my most-used Mean Girls quotes, in no particular order. This list is in no way an objective compilation, and you may find that your favorite quips vastly differ from mine. That's one of the great things about it: it's an endless source of humor to pull from, a veritable Bartlett's for our age. Do you have favorites I didn't include? (Hint: I purposefully left a couple favorites off, to give you something to feedback about.) Leave them in the comment section below.
1. "Get in loser. We're going shopping."
2. "Ex-boyfriends are off-limits to friends. That's just, like, the rules of feminism."
3. "Raise your hand if you have ever been personally victimized by Regina George."
4. "We only carry sizes one, three and five. You could try Sears."
5. "That's why her hair is so big. It's full of secrets."
6. "It's like I have ESPN or something. My breasts can always tell when it's going to rain. Well… they can tell when it's raining."
7. Janis: "We gotta crack Gretchen Wieners. We crack Gretchen, and then we crack the lock on Regina's whole dirty history." Damian: "Say crack again." Janis: "Crack."
8. "But you're, like, really pretty… So you agree? You think you're really pretty?"

The San Diego Chargers played just their second game of the 2010 NFL pre-season, welcoming in the Dallas Cowboys.
For those in attendance who were hoping to watch a good game between two of the top teams in football, they didn't exactly get the kind of game they were hoping for.
Interceptions, dropped passes, questionable defense, and the like took over the game and turned into a 16-14 win for the Cowboys thanks to a Chargers' safety with just under four minutes to play in the game.
There was a big tackle in the game however, but it wasn't from someone you'd expect.
Here are 10 observations from the Chargers' loss to the Cowboys on Saturday.

Tonsillitis and burning when peeing
Q: I live in Japan, and I have a hard time communicating with my doctor. From last tuesday, I`ve had an extremely sore throat, many canker sores on my tongue, and it burns when I pee. I went to the doctor and he said I have tonsillitis. He prescribed me antibiotics. But when I told him that it burns when I pee, he just repeated that I should take the prescribed medicines.
Are all those ailments connected? Canker sores come and go, so even though I`ve never had that many, or on my tongue, I could presume that is just random bad luck. But I am concerned that it burns when I pee. Is that somehow related to my tonsillitis? Will I really be alright just taking the prescribed medication?
A: I understand your concern about your condition; it would be very difficult for me to diagnose you without an examination and a better clinical history. However if your physician diagnosed a tonsillitis and that prescribed an antibiotic, he or she might have probably prescribed an antibiotic that covers both infections, but in my opinion a urine test to rule out or confirm a urinary tract infection should have been first taken. On the other hand since tonsillitis is commonly caused by viruses and doesnt need antibiotic treatment, in my opinion the medication prescribed could have been directed only to your urinary condition. I will suggest you to take your medication, but if you dont improve in the next few days, I will recommend also to be evaluated again and this time ask for a simple urine test to rule out urinary tract infection. I wish you a prompt recovery.
