The 75 families that live in Carmelita, deep in northern Guatemalan's Petén region, share their forest home with raucous howler monkeys, stealthy jaguars and brilliantly feathered scarlet macaws. Since 1997, when the government awarded the community rights to manage 132,938 acres (53,798 hectares) of land, members have been working to conserve their forest resources through the sustainable harvesting of xate, chiclé and wood. The Rainforest Alliance has certified Carmelita's forestry operations and helped the community find markets for its wood products to international buyers. While this arrangement has meant steadily increasing profits for the community — which members have invested in the building of a new school, a health center, and a soccer field — it has not been enough to deter the illegal loggers who continue to threaten the forest. "In many cases, after extracting wood illegally, these invaders burn the forests," explains Carlos Federico Barrios, manager of the Baren Commercial Plant, a leading manufacturer of certified wood products in the Petén. "With a dry summer, the fires can spread and destroy more forest. This process of turning a lush forest into a burnt area only suitable to agriculture is happening every day here and we must stop it."
To provide Carmelita, Uaxactún and other communities with a greater incentive to conserve their lands, the Rainforest Alliance is spearheading Payments for Environmental Services in the Maya Biosphere Reserve, a project that will help to avoid carbon emissions while creating a new source of revenue for communities that will enable them to invest in conservation and meet pressing social needs. "We understand that climate change is caused by pollution and deforestation," reflects Benedin Garcia, president of the Management and Conservation Organization in Uaxactún. "We have come to find out that this has affected the world system. To reduce this problem we want to work hard to maintain the forest cover and the environment. With this project, we believe we are halting deforestation and maintaining the equilibrium of the forest. This will not only help to maintain our health, but it has social, ecological and economic benefits." The Maya Biosphere Reserve project has the potential to offset an estimated 0.8 million tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per year through avoided deforestation or approximately 16 million tons of carbon dioxide equivalent over 20 year life span. Or in other words, the emissions avoided through reducing deforestation annually are equivalent to the annual emissions from over 145,000 passenger vehicles.
As Jeffrey Hayward, manager of the Rainforest Alliance's climate initiative, explains, "Deforestation accounts for between 12 and 15 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions. By giving communities the incentive to stop deforestation, we're helping to both sequester carbon gasses through avoided deforestation and to mitigate the emission of the gasses that lead to global warming. At the same time, we're conserving biodiversity and helping to provide economic and social benefits in these areas."
Under the terms of the project, the government and communities in the Petén hope to be able to sell credits for avoided carbon emissions on the international carbon market within the next six to nine months. But laying the groundwork for the project's administration and implementation has been a lengthy three-year process that is still ongoing. "Without a law on the books that specifically addresses environmental service payments for carbon benefits, the process to establish this arrangement has involved complex negotiations between the communities and the government with the Rainforest Alliance acting as facilitator," explains Hayward. "These issues that don't have a legal precedent must be addressed in order to ensure that communities and other legitimate stakeholders have their rights to the carbon fairly established."
Meanwhile, the communities are eager to finalize a deal and move ahead with their conservation plans. "The communities need more money to look after the forests. Management comes at a high cost," observes Marcedonio Cortave, executive director of the Association of Forest Communities of the Petén. "FSC certification means that you have to pay for audits, annual improvements, and do all the activities that certification requires."
Income from the project will not only be applied toward increased community vigilance but improved education. "For me, education is crucial," notes president of the Carmelita concession Carlos Crasborn. "Sadly, most of the children in our community leave to study elsewhere at the age of 15 because we don't have the facilities or teachers to educate children up to 18 years. We want children to stay in the community. Educating them here will be a step towards achieving that."
Cortave believes that with enough financial incentive and support, the most qualified people to protect the forestlands are the community members themselves. "The people from the community are key to the vigilance of the forests. By having a direct interest in the forests, they are more likely to care and protect them," says Cortave. "For the xate collector, the forest is crucial to his livelihood — it's his fountain of life."

These ubiquitous reactive nanoparticles could be harmful to brain development, and even have an association with Alzheimer's Disease.
They're calling it "passive immunization," and it could be the next step on the path to a cure.
For a while we thought amyloid plaques were the smoking gun in Alzheimer's disease, but new research out of Berkeley has shown us some surprising details about the spread of Alzheimer's through the brain – and used PET imaging to stage the disease in living people for the first time.
If you've ever wondered how much energy it takes to perform a full body scan, consider this: a new MRI designed to probe the deep structure of the brain uses a magnet more powerful than the ones inside the Large Hadron Collider.

The polar regions: sentinels of major climate change
The polar regions are not only the keepers of the Earth's climate archives. They also act as sentinels; a kind of early warning system of what can be expected by the planet as a whole…
Elephant Foot Glacier, at around 81° N along the east coast of Greenland. The grey zone at low elevation is the ablation zone incised by meltwater channels, clearly separated from the white surface accumulation zone higher up.
© P. Huybrechts/VUB
Philippe Huybrechts is a glaciologist at VUB, the Free University of Brussels in Belgium. In two of his recent articles (published in the journals Nature and Geophysical Research Letters), he clearly demonstrated the current impact of global warming on Greenland. These two studies testify to the rapid thaw of the ice cap that covers this vast landmass between the Atlantic and Arctic Oceans.
"The polar regions are the first to suffer from global warming. But they also suffer more acutely than other parts of the world, both in terms of rapidity and intensity," he explains. "It is a question of albedo and temperature. In summer, when the Arctic sea ice melts, the surface of the water is darker and accumulates more solar radiation, thus accelerating the warming phenomenon. The same applies to emerged landmasses such as Greenland, northern Canada and southern Siberia, which have suddenly seen their snow cover disappear. On average, climate warming in these regions is two or three times more marked than elsewhere on the planet," explains the scientist. "The Antarctic, with the exception of its peninsula, currently appears to be protected from this kind of rapid disturbance thanks to its better thermal 'insulation', provided by the Antarctic Ocean."
Greenland is melting
The 'disaster' scenario in the Arctic is no longer science fiction. What was initially only a question of modelling has since been widely confirmed by field observations, one example being changes to the Greenland ice sheet.
"Between 1950 and 1990, we saw a drop in Greenland's temperature of about 1.5°C," explains Philippe Huybrechts. "But since 1990, the temperature has been rising, and this has been exacerbated by a negative balance between precipitations in the region and melting of its ice sheet."
The result is that in a little more than ten years, the ice sheet has shrunk. Indeed, this phenomenon has amplified even further in the past five years. Huybrechts thinks that the situation is nearing a critical point.
"Each year, Greenland is losing about 80 cubic kilometres of ice (total ice sheet volume estimated at three million cubic kilometres). If the ice sheet loses 20% of its volume, the process will become irreversible," he suggests.
Sea levels are rising
The impact of this meltdown on the planet as a whole has resulted in rising sea levels. Each year, shrinkage of the Greenland ice mass causes a global rise of 0.2 millimetres. Over the past fifteen years, the rise has thus totalled 3 millimetres. If the phenomenon continues, i.e. if the temperature of the planet goes on rising, the entire Greenland ice sheet will melt. Huybrechts reckons that the point of no return will be reached when the Earth's temperature has risen by 3 degrees. And if this rise reaches 10 degrees, Greenland will truly merit its name in a thousand years' time – a phenomenon which will also bring about a 7.5 metre rise in the level of the oceans!
Satellite images, available since 1979, have shown an increasing trend in seasonal surface melt extension of the Greenland Ice Sheet at the height of summer.

Gloriana Singer Tom Gossin Ties the Knot in Nashville
Originally posted 10/21/2013 07:20PM
After a 10-year courtship Gloriana singer/guitarist Tom Gossin tied the knot with Jaime Moffett Saturday night in Nashville at what he called "the party of the decade."
Bandmate and younger brother Mike Gossin stood by Tom's side with oldest brother Steve as best man. The third member of the country trio, Rachel Reinert, was one of Jaime's nine attendants, which included two bridesmen in addition to seven bridesmaids. She donned a custom-made tuxedo corset in honor of her semi-formal role as "groomslady" while all nine of Tom's groomsmen wore custom-made wooden bow ties.
When Gossin proposed to Moffett on their 10th anniversary, it was with a 1920s European-cut stone, and the couple's ceremony and reception at The Cannery was tuned into the Jazz Age right up until their departure in a vintage Rolls Royce.
Behind the Scenes at the Making of Gloriana's New Video
Originally posted 11/17/2012 01:00PM
Things are getting personal in Gloriana's new music video for their song "Can't Shake You.'
The country group's tune, written by band member Tom Gossin and friends, highlights the 10 years of ups and downs it took for him and his now fiancée Jaime to finally get together. (They're getting married next October).
"My career broke us up. Long distance was tough", Gossin tells PEOPLE. "[But] it turned out for the better."
Gossin, along with his brother, Mike, and bandmate Rachel Reinert, filmed the video at Silverado's a bar in Nashville, which resembles the bar in Willmington, N.C., where he first met Jaime while playing a show.

New York, NY. Feb 18, 2014 – "Revolution", this is how some retail executives describe CardsApp, a startup company that will probably replace your wallet anytime soon. CardsApp offers a simple, easy to use mobile app that allows consumers to display loyalty cards with one simple click.
Reinventing Loyalty Programs
Unlike many "wallet" apps that merely scan existing plastic cards, CardsApp enables merchants to actually create a digital loyalty card online, instead of printing expensive plastic cards, thus cutting loyalty program expenses by an amazing average of 73%. Needless to say, this allows merchants to reduce loyalty programs subscription price and more importantly, focus on customers, rather than on cumbersome plastic cards logistics. Converting plastic cards to digital CardsApp cards also contributes to a greener, plastic-pollution free brand.
Marketers' Secret Weapon
While marketers tend to use conventional advertising platforms such as Google's AdSense or Facebook's Ads, CardsApp manages to challenge these giants with an innovative marketing technology, which is actually beneficial for both customers and merchants. CardsApp allows merchants to send updates, sales and coupons to customers in a form of push notifications (just like the popular WhatsApp). When a customer reads an update, he gets rewarded with loyalty points. Earning loyalty points simply for reading an update is a great incentive that will eventually drive consumers to merchants' stores.
CardsApp is available for free on major platforms (Android, iPhone & Windows Phone 8), with numerous merchants already making use of the platform and more than 1 million cards stored in users' wallets, that's 1 million less plastic cards printed. CardsApp is currently partnering and conducting integration trials with global retailers and brands.

"Called to Proclaim the Mighty Acts of the Lord"
(cf.1 Peter 2:9)
Contact staff for this Ministry
It is the function of the Office of Ecumenical and Interreligious Relations to foster ecumenical work on behalf of the diocese for the purpose of promoting Christian unity and to engage in interreligious dialogue with members of non-Christian religious communities in order to develop mutual affection and esteem so that human dignity and freedom may grow and flourish in the Diocese of Palm Beach.
On January 18 - 25, 2016, Christian Churches throughout the world will join in prayer asking the Lord to restore oneness to the Christian community. This oneness was ruptured at various times during the history of the Church, most notably in 1054 when Catholics and Eastern Orthodox Christians severed the bonds of unity and then again in 1517 when protests over ecclesiastical abuses led to the fragmentation of western Christendom. Thankfully, most of the acrimony of the past is behind us, and Christians are more and more yearning for doctrinal unity and pastoral charity among all believers. To this end, the Graymoor Ecumenical Institute inaugurated the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity which is entering its 108th year in 2016.
The Diocese of Palm Beach welcomes and encourages dialogue with fellow believers in Jesus Christ and is ready and willing to share in common prayer and worship insofar as our confessions allow. All Churches and ecclesial communities that wish to explore ways to celebrate the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity 2016 with the Catholic community of Palm Beach, Martin, St. Lucie, Indian River, and Okeechobee counties are invited to contact Deacon Dennis Demes or Lynn Powell at the Office of Ecumenical and Interreligious Relations.

"Daily Racing Form" archives on-line · 6.08.09
The venerable Daily Racing Form has been in publication since 1894, and is arguably the bible of racing fans and horseplayers. In 2000 the DRF donated its entire archival collection of back-issues to the Keeneland Library: approximately 5 million newspaper pages in 3,700 folio hardbound volumes, including the Morning Telegraph and the American Racing Manual as well as the DRF, stored in a climate-controlled storage facility.
The Keeneland Library and the University of Kentucky recently partnered for a project to digitize this treasure-trove of racing history, and make it available on-line and easily-accessible to researchers around the world.
The beta version of this unique database is now available. Researchers can search for names or phrases — performing full-text searches or limiting their efforts to headlines, bylines, results, past performances, and even comics and advertisements — or browse by decade.
The database still has only a limited selection of articles available, but you can already read such minor gems as the legendary Charles Hatton's explanation of the origins of the Triple Crown.
Speaking as a fan, and in particular as someone interested in the history of the sport, all I can say is… SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!

best buy is probably a better choice in terms of who would know more about how to fix them. After all, Best Buy has a trained personnel who is meant to deal only with this stuff, so I would assume they would be your best et. Though I dont know the cost of it at Best Buy.
If they are unable to fix it, you should send it into Nintendo. It may be costly, but you can be sure they will get the job done right. It follows the "quality over quantity" concept. You can either pay a cheaper cost for a halfassed job that will make your Wii work for awhile only to need to get repaired again in a couple of months, or, you can pay full price and ensure it gets fixed entirely.
Like I said, your choice.
Glad I could be of assisstance!

Francisco J. Santiago-Ávilacommented on a video on YouTube.
"I love soccer because it is so painfully similar to life: slow, unjust, fairly random, usually boring, but always holding out the hope that, at some moment, however brief, everything will come together and take on meaning.
There's no getting away from it—life isn't about limber athletes sinking hoops from the three-point arc; life is an ongoing, uncoordinated, anguished effort to transcend our trivial existence, an effort that, if we're lucky, might lead to one brilliant move by Messi, Kaká, or some other dribbling magician. And then, for one split second, that whole damp 90-minute mishmash will turn into something coherent, beautiful, and worthwhile. And, when that moment and its endless playbacks fade, we will all return to our same drab reality of wasted time, pointless fouls, unreceived passes, and wild kicks that miss the goal by kilometers, only to wait with infinite patience and boundless hope for that next moment of grace." - Etgar Keret

WATCHING THE Golden Globes to see who won is like reading Playboy for the articles. You can do it if you want, but you're probably missing the point.
We watch, if we watch, for the party, for the spectacle of famous people, some of whom haven't eaten in a day or two, becoming gradually more inebriated and saying and doing unexpected things. Or for the moment when the wrong thing comes up on the teleprompter and presenters have to scramble.

Drive along the New England coast and you won't get far before running into whole hedges of unbelievably fragrant roses -- it seems the seacoast region offers prime growing conditions for roses, and they do thrive. These were the inspiration for our Seacoast Rose potpourri blend. If you're looking for something a little more traditional in a rose potpourri, try our Country Cottage Rose blend.
This 1-lb. size bag comes with a full ounce bottle of oil on the side (we also sell a smaller 10 ounce bag with a 1/2 ounce bottle of oil, which you can find here). Scent-on-the-side lets you control how light or strong you want your potpourri to be, and we've included enough scented oil to keep your potpourri smelling great for far longer than most other potpourri brands you can buy. Instructions on applying the oil (and an oil dropper) are included with each order.

A Charleston man who fatally beat his mother's ex-boyfriend was found guilty of murder and sentenced to 40 years in prison Wednesday.
Robert Wright, 43, attacked Christopher Jenkins, 46, on Aiken Street around sunset June 10, 2010. Jenkins was walking to a neighborhood store with two young nephews and their friend when he was attacked from behind, slammed to the pavement, beaten and stomped. He died the next day from blood loss due to 10 broken ribs, according to a forensic pathologist.
Wright attacked Jenkins because he was offended that Jenkins continued to contact his mother after they broke off their romantic relationship, according to the prosecution.
This was the second time the case had gone to trial. A mistrial was declared in 2012 when a jury failed to reach a verdict.
"It was clear from the evidence that Christopher Jenkins died as a result of a violent, malicious attack, and I'm happy this jury correctly applied the law of this state and convicted Mr. Wright accordingly," Assistant 9th Circuit Solicitor Chad Simpson said in a statement.
Wright had previous criminal convictions for domestic violence, resisting arrest and cocaine possession, as well as pending charges for domestic violence and domestic violence of a high and aggravated nature, according to the solicitor's office.
Judge Kristi Harrington handed down the sentence. Simpson and Assistant Solicitor Jessica Baldwin prosecuted.

winning the fight, but losing the match, that's what pretty much happened here. I was rooting for Clottey, but he lost based off of his own inactivity. Even his own corner was telling him to throw punches, but he went into the championship rounds pretty much inactive. Had he fought throughout the night like he fought the early rounds, utilizing his left had to through the jab, getting in the short left uppercuts, and shots to the body, he would have stopped Cotto. The fault of this loss is entirely on Joshua Clottey.

Nah man I said over and over Clottey would K.o cotto in 9th and I'll be damned if Cotto wasn't impressive....Clottey is a lazy ****, and that knock down in the 1st round shocked me Clottey and I think everyone who was watching...now Clottey gave him a beating but he thinks Blocking punches means he's winning.....in a fight yes, in a Boxing match NO.
The impressive thing abut Cotto was that he kept fighting, and wass more active then Clottey and looked like the better Boxer.
Clottey was more accurate and effective but waaaaaaaaaay too inactive. YOU HAVE TO TAKE THE BELT. Clottey fights like a champion but he was the contender and the CHampion looked like one. Cotto deserved it....Clottey won the 11th in a lackluster way, then he gave away the 12th....I was home like come the **** on man, I knew he last after the last round.
Good fight, Disappointing performance from Clottey and Impressive performance from Cotto.

Disco's Hot and Tangy New York Strip Steaks
Total Time
Prep 30 mins
Cook 10 mins
from Captain Eric "Disco" Dominijanni, 2D Assault Amphibian Battalion, MCB Camp Lejeune. Also seen on Throwdown with Bobby Flay. You can use a different pepper and remove the seeds if you want less heat. Prep time does not include 4-6 hours for marinading.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 (12 ounce) can cola
- 1⁄2 cup soy sauce
- 1⁄2 cup garlic teriyaki sauce
- 1 habanero pepper, finely chopped with seeds
- 1 tablespoon grated orange zest
- 1 tablespoon freshly ground gingerroot
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
- 3⁄4 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- 1⁄8 teaspoon kosher salt
- 4 (8 ounce) New York strip steaks, about 8 ounces each and 3/4 inch thick
- extra virgin olive oil
- In a medium bowl mix the marinade ingredients. Place the steaks in a large, resealable plastic bag and pour in the marinade. Press out the air, seal the bag, and turn several times to coat the meat. Place the bag in a bowl and refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours, turning the bag occasionally.
- Let the steaks stand at room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes before grilling. Remove the steaks from the bag and reserve the marinade. Pour the marinade into a small saucepan, bring to a boil, and boil for about 10 seconds. Set aside about half of the marinade for basting the steaks. For the remaining marinade in the saucepan, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until it has reduced to the consistency of a dipping sauce, 5 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Set aside.
- Pat the steaks dry with paper towels. Lightly coat the steaks with oil.
- With the lid closed, grill the steaks over direct high heat (500ºF to 550ºF) until cooked to desired doneness, 5 to 7 minutes for medium-rare, turning once and basting with a little of the boiled marinade. (If flare-ups occur, move the steaks temporarily over indirect high heat.) Remove from the grill and let rest for 2 to 3 minutes. Serve warm with the dipping sauce on the side.
Most Helpful
This was excellent! I grow habaneros in my garden and wanted to make a good marinade that I could toss one into, and this was perfect. Not all that much work goes into preparing the marinade, and the rewards are still fantastic.
My husband found this recipe in the Military Officer magazine and wanted me to make it. I made it exactly as directed and we love it. I can't understand the poor review someone wrote. I guess people have different tastes. Definitely tangy and slightly hot. Oh, I guess I changed one thing. I didn't use the seeds. We have since made it 3 times. The smell of the marinade is intoxicating.
This was ok. I was really excited to try after seeing it on Throwdown. It is a lot of work for an ok steak. I probably will not make again.

Scandalousby minahborja (Essay about the poem entitled SOLEDAD by: Angela Manalng-Gloria)
In the poem, the townspeople learn about a scandalous situation that involves a girl from their town. The girl is described to be a well bred person with this line "one so carved from pride and glassed in dream." With this observation, the people in the town are surprised to find out that the girl engages in a pre-marital sex. As the poem says, "…she dared profane the bread and wine of life for one insane moment with him." She seriously defies a norm that has some religious underpinnings.
"Borken Promises"by minahborja (Literary)
"Promise"...an assurance that one will undertake a certain action, gives one's word; a vow... I guess I just don't believe in that saying if we take that as true, then why am I suffering from this loneliness and frustration at this point in my life?
GOD is in with meby minahborja (homework (Prayer))
I realize that i should not regret any day of my life good days give me happiness..
bad days give me experiences.. both are essentials to life..
happiness keep me sweet.. strong sorrows keep me human failures make me humble.. success keep me growing .. and most of all ther is GOD who make's my life going..

Reviews for Silver Ribbon Campaign to TRUST WOMEN with reproductive rights
The Silver Ribbon Campaign to Trust Women is a very low budget but high impact organization. They bring people together and are not proprietary about their work. The Silver Ribbon is very popular with every day people as something to take action and increase visibility. The Campaign has brought together groups that have NEVER done work together before e.g. MoveOn with PFAW, FMF, and other groups that don't usually work together.
